Just because an amp has 2 inputs doesn't mean you can use 2 basses into it at once. Those inputs are rarely set up as a summing mixer, which is what you need - hence the suggestions above.

Don't forget that guitar watts come out louder than bass watts...

[quote name='Skinnyman' timestamp='1415727861' post='2603145'] Bandmix and joinmyband are the two I've used. With mixed results, it has to be said :-) [/quote] This. Put what you will in your ads (and I have), but you will still get some patently unsuitable applicants (and I have)!

[quote name='witterth' timestamp='1415727165' post='2603131'] I like the "tell it like it is" feel to this advert, wish more were this honest and up front, like this. being honest and not moving the goalposts later. I can tick all the boxes on this (and have two real Cowboy hats!! Fubar! Lol!) but Bugger I live in Rochdale. [/quote] I'm told it's hard being a cowboy in Rochdale....

I have recently bought a Cali76 for use on guitar, and I have it switched on the whole time. It's brilliant. I have yet to use it when recording bass, but I definitely will, as big peaks on bass notes otherwise mess up my attempts to get a good signal down. I have no desire to use it live though.

Not last night but the night before... At 8 hours' notice, played with Shaun Buswell on the first night of his latest Orchestra Challenge tour. He books a string of venues, prints out sheet music of 17 songs for 20 orchestral instruments, tries to recruit random players during the daytime, and everyone pitches up and plays form the dots in the evening. As it happened, there were no orchestral instruments, just Shaun on guitar and vocals, a chap called Chris on keyboards, and me on bass (playing from the DB score). The audience (who mainly don't know the songs) call out numbers (e.g. '3') and the band play the corresponding songs. It was the complete opposite of the more usual scenario where you practice and rehearse with a view to getting it right; instead, it all just happens, and it was mainly pretty good. I very much enjoyed it, and didn't even mind the very drunk man treating us to 'interpretive dance' at the front. He enjoyed it too btw.

Just watched this again. Excellent track, redolent of Avalon-era Roxy, and great playing by all involved. Just remembered I still have [i]The High Road[/i] on VHS!

[quote name='scalpy' timestamp='1394044670' post='2387351'] Any comparison between the G&L and the Sandberg? Very similar looking. [/quote] None whatsoever, very different beasts.

Probably normal. At home practice levels I can hear the hiss from the Glockenklang pre in my Sandberg, even though I generally have the treble control backed off a bit. Mind you that's only when I stop playing and actively listen out for it. No tweeter in my cab btw.

[quote name='Norris' timestamp='1415133992' post='2597148'] I wouldn't trust anything apart from my top-hanger Hercules. Having a thunderbird might also have something to do with it. I strap all of the long stuff (guitar stand, mic stand, etc.) together for easy carriage [/quote] This.

Red light fever. I have experienced this even when recording stuff on my own, with no one else even in the house, let alone the room!

[quote name='gary mac' timestamp='1414925609' post='2594631'] Defunkt go all Halloween [url="https://flic.kr/p/oXCHu9"][/url] [/quote] Wow! How did you get Prince to stand in on guitar for you?

Done

[quote name='Guinness21' timestamp='1414610515' post='2591368'] I don't understand how so many people use TC when they've lied about the power output of their amps?! [/quote] No more than Genz Benz did. Look around the back of a Streamliner 900 and you will see above the mains inlet the words 'MAXIMUM AVERAGE POWER CONSUMPTION 650 WATTS'. It's all to do with how they handle the peaks...

You would probably get even more off if you pointed out that the speakers are the wrong way round. You need the 15 on the bottom and the 10s on the top for the, err, top. Apparently.

[quote name='Bobthedog' timestamp='1414607873' post='2591323'] Yes [/quote] [quote name='danbowskill' timestamp='1414608491' post='2591332'] yes yes .....yes [/quote] I concur.

Any pics to compare?
