Played in Sevenoaks on Friday. My new amp had developed a fault and its replacement didn’t arrive on time. As such for the first time ever I had to go straight to the PA and use in ears. The gig went very well, but I found it a strange experience not having an amp behind me. Ours is quite a basic PA and so we could only put a bit of bass through it, but it all seemed to work OK and the crowd all seemed to enjoy it.

Is the case that comes with the Anagram not very good?

The Tech 21 Steve Harris does this, I have one and it’s great. It has two channels with shared EQ, but seperate volume and gain controls and is capable of the sounds you describe above

Played in Maidstone at the weekend. Venue was pretty busy and all there seemed to enjoy it. We normally play as a 4 piece but were a guitarist down last night and played as a 3 piece. Gave my new Markbass combo a run out and I was impressed with the sound & volume it gave out. i am trying to gig with the least & lightest amount of gear possible, and this is definitely helping with that!

Hi - I get this as well sometimes. Do you use the comfort cream when you put them in, as I find this helps a lot, along with pulling the top of your ear up and out as you put them in. How long have you had them, I have to change mine every few years due to changing ear shape. I once had to have a pair remade as they weren’t quite fitting correctly. ACS have great customer services and adjusted them for me, and they were much better.

Thanks, I’ll I’ve a look into it. i don’t currently use a DAW or anything like that. I generally play along to the track on my headphones on the Katana go

All those different keys are my worst nightmare!! I’ve depped a few times and all the songs have been in the original key/recorded version. i really struggle to practice & rehearse if I can’t play along to the original version.

Back in stock on Guitar Guitar, currently showing 3 in stock. am very tempted!

Nice! Their website says they are getting more in a couple of weeks, and have registered for the email alert now

They’ve gone already

Three gigs with three different bands Fri, Sat & Sun for me. i think I played over one hundred different songs over the three days, surprisingly there were only a couple that were in all three bands setlists. on Saturday, someone spilled a drink over an extension lead which took out the power!

Wow that must have been very loud if it was too loud through the ACS customs. I have the 26db ACS customs, and sometimes find the fit isn’t as tight towards the end of a gig, which makes them not quite as effective. I tend to now only take them out when I am in the car and all packed up due to loud music/DJ playing after the band has finished and are packing up etc

Played at Kent festival of scouting last night for the 14-17 year olds. The whole event was set up just like a proper music festival, and we were in a huge tent with stage, crowd barrier and pro sound team. The kids there were loving it. Earlier in the week the band had played at the opening ceremony on the main stage( I was on holiday and they had a dep) but apparantly the stage was last used at the Ozzy tribute at Villa Park. Couple of pics below of the venue before they were let in

Wow - that’s a lot. The timings and running orders have been leaked and most bands only seem to be getting 15 minute slots, with Metallica only getting 30 mins. im glad I am not going tbh

September seems to be when most of the UK retailers are getting them in
