  1. I could understand it if the extra bit was on the top.
  2. My Thunder 1A is probably the only bass I really regret selling.
  3. Toe much information.
  4. Hi, I seem to have hit my attachment limit. How do I delete them?
  5. I bet he does not know who I am either 🤣
  6. I wonder why they have chosen the AG prefix, surely it creates confusion with Aguilar's model numbering?
  7. 2x sets of 4 Hipshot USA ultralite HB6Y 3/8” in black , never fitted as new. Are they 4 in line or 2L 2R?
  8. I seem to remember a thread where this was discussed but searching for it is a nightmare so.. I seem to remember a Dragons Den device being recommended, any info? Are there others I should consider?
  9. Quality not quantity.
  10. Snap although only 71 in December and still have my hair.
  11. It took me 67 years to find a band with no egos, still a few fragile souls that take too much to heart, but generally a good crowd. I am 70 now but we gigging ow and are booking for next year so don't give up.
  12. I must admit, living in the far south of England, a trip too far north for me would be a real trek. I do love the South West Bash each year although I had to miss last years due to a rare gig. Even that is a good drive away from me. being close to equidistant from the South East Bash.
  13. deleted
  14. Probably the worldwide shortage of components.
  15. I realise that we have bashes all over the UK but would it be a runner?
  16. No way is a gig going to chip away at my chances of attending this one. I am leaving the gig at home and using the car. I expect to see some nice shiny new kit. I am also trying to arrange a fair amount of caboodle. Anyway that is enough carping on from me.
  17. It seems strange to be admonished, and at the end told you are right. I would argue with some on your list but not your general premise. I was at a BBC event once where there was a band. The BBC sound person had to use the supplied mics, a box full of dynamic mics, a mixture of SM57s and Behringer’s 8500s. The SM58s stayed in the box and he used the Behringers. when asked why he said you cannot easily EQ out the response of the 58, whereas the Behringer has flatter response that is easier to EQ. It should be said that SM58 is a 60-70 year old design. The fact that I think my Sontronics Solo is far superior is nothing to do with the fact that the Sontronics factory is just round the corner from me. Before you ask, I bought it retail after trying several mics. Still as someone from Shure once told me, the SM58 paid for his pension. Back to the wireless systems,
  18. I have to be honest, I have a B in my bonnet about Shure. Its not their fault but the SM58 is not very good by today's standards yet is lauded by all and sundry. It gives me the impression that all Shure stuff is over priced. I must admit that the pedal board wireless stuff looks good but £400+ to replace a cable? I use the Smoothhound Classic. Is it perfect? No. Has it ever let me down? No. The battery level meter is really useful and the "inteference" meter does give you a warning if the area is swamped with 2.4GHz. It can take AAA batteries, Alkaline or rechargeable and will do two gigs on one charge (although I never rely on it).
  19. Yes no problems with the Smoothhound over several years.
  20. Welcome Rib. You will find us friendly in the main with several friends from the USA already here. Will check your YouTube channel soon.
  21. It’s not Biden’s fault that the exchange rate usd-gbp has tanked. The means the drivers that Barefaced use are up just by that with general inflation added on top. Johnson Biden Putin Brexit, take you pick.
  22. Apparently there is a built in mid dip that the mod takes care of as well as a notch filter. I will be doing a sweep of the BDI21 before and after mods to see the difference. The parts are now ordered so I can try it once my other projects are finished or paused.
  23. Thanks for the comment Paul. Incidentally, I will be doing a frequency response sweep before and after to show how well it works.

    BDI21 Mods

    I am just about to mod my Behringer Bass DI, BDI21 along with one from a friend. The mods designed by Franken P on YouTube is in the form of a video. To make it easier, I screenshot each stage and have put it into a pictorial PDF. Sadly I have run out of space on here so if you want a copy, please sens me a message with your email address. Now I have other projects on the go so will not be starting this for a while, however I thought I would put the PDF here in case anyone else fancied doing it.
