  1. Nige and Lozz, I really appreciated you coming along and really you are too kind. But yeah, I think I got very lucky joining this band! Absolutely loved the gig tonight, met all of my hopes Cheers again, chaps!
  2. [quote name='miles'tone' timestamp='1373284595' post='2135595'] Yeehaw! Cool track man, band's got a good sound there. Congrats. [/quote]Why, thank you! This is generally the track we open our live set with as its nice and upbeat
  3. As not everyone subscribes to the Recording forum, I thought I'd be cheeky and post this here. This ('New York Red') is one of the new songs from our debut album, released today. Hope you like it https://soundcloud.com/all-the-queens-ravens/new-york-red Here's the blurb re album etc http://basschat.co.uk/topic/211878-all-the-queens-ravens-album-released-link-plus-new-song-for-ya/page__pid__2135523#entry2135523

  5. Last call. Free entry! Support acts at about 7.45 and 8.30, we are onstage about 9.30
  6. I'm in All The Queens Ravens .... a mix of folk/pop/blues/country/flamenco, described by one punter as "Fleetwood Mac goes to Spain" and another as "gypsy pop"
  7. These are £115 plus post at Thomann [url="http://www.thomann.de/gb/thomastik_spirocore_02.htm"]http://www.thomann.d...pirocore_02.htm[/url] Mine are almost new, just a bit of fuzzing on the red silks (no exposed metal at the peg end). Reflecting their excellent condition, I will sell at £80 including post within UK. Only selling as I am sticking with Danny Thompson signature strings on my 1880s flatback (a bit of hero worship!)
  8. Fancied some RAWK in the sun today, so it was Metallica ('Unforgiven') and Sabbath ('Heaven and Hell' - just love the part where the guitar leads in to the fast second part) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fb-UxzgkTds http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4EL67mjv1nM
  9. [quote name='Spoombung' timestamp='1373199888' post='2134568'] Really? I'll ask him about that. ...any dirt on Frank? [/quote] I didn't ask Anyway folks, tomorrow night! Free entry too
  10. Here's one of the songs Jack will be playing ... and a bump from me http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uDq6580mPaQ
  11. [quote name='Spoombung' timestamp='1373033397' post='2133041'] Your always playing the same night as me. Good luck with the launch! [/quote] Cheers Kev, spookily it turns out my guitarist (Luke) played in a band with your drummer (Frank) for 7 years and went to college together!
  12. Bump for a cool piece of kit that sounds very natural and mic-like and has some huge advocates on TalkBass http://www.talkbass.com/forum/f4/ehrlund-blog-sort-909299/
  13. Sunny Saturday bump. This is a bargain for the quality and size
  14. Mmmm sunburst
  15. Me again and another string deal with Greg. As before, all good
  16. [quote name='Thunderbird' timestamp='1372707296' post='2128959'] Good luck with the launch mate [/quote] Cheers! Looks like a good turnout - from FaceBook event page alone we have over 70 and I know quite a few coming who don't frequent FB
  17. Would love to come along Lozz but have family stuff on that evening. have a cracking gig mate ... and TransistorBassman too!
  18. If people stopped talking b*llocks, there'd be no BassChat. Woz not, Nige!
  19. phwoar! Aguilar plus Berg sounds fantastic, as those of us who attended the recent Bassbash were able to witness (courtesy of Barrie/Molan and his impressive BassGear display)
  20. [quote name='TheRev' timestamp='1372838012' post='2130420'] Still can't believe you've sold on your BigE though - that will definitley end up back with you... [/quote] If I played jazz or any style of music where there was space for the DB to be heard I would still own the BigE. In my band I may as well be playing through an Ampeg stack
  21. Gear re-think again. This is back up for sale at a slightly lower price of £375 posted or £365 collected
  22. I heard a quick demo from Jack before his band practice last night and completely concur. Fabulous punchy, warm sound that you just can't get (at least 100%) with a modern, non-valve head
  23. I sold this original 60s Ampeg Baby Bass in May 2012 and the prescient Dave (aka TheRev) predicted I would buy it back within six months. Well, the principle was right although it was a 14 months gap in the end. Anyway, with the exception of the characteristic UVEX whiff (which I will never get used to and Mrs C is somewhat unhappy about in her sitting room!) I am delighted to have this retro, uber-cool beauty back. May even play it at our album launch gig next Monday [attachment=138166:P1040316.JPG]
  24. I know Jon and the bass concerned and all the grief it caused him, starting from the get go (when JE supplied incorrectly specified machine heads if I recall correctly). You are of course entitled to state your good experiences with Bravewood but I feel its frankly over-stepping the mark to question the conduct of another customer who did nothing wrong and essentially received a custom instrument costing over a grand that was not fit for purpose.
  25. Fraid so Chris, at least for now
