Can attach an LED to it I assume

Which is a fraction of a cost that it would be if you used those!

Personally I would try it with no input but clearly on that video, the noise spike was hitting all channels, where the zoom was only plugged into one, so I would very much doubt it was related. I wouldn't have it plugged in as it could be putting noise on the mains.

So you forgo the convenience of solid state amplifiers to get the tone of a valve, and then replace the valve with a really expensive solid state valve emulator, giving you the win win of Solid state sound processing combined with Valve inconvenience

Honestly surprised that the CQs have an external power supply, seems a design flaw on something so well made.

You can't actually change the price, so what you do is add 'price drop £xx' in the title or similar, as you will see from other posts. Every other thing of the add you can change, just not the price

That is a pain, it certainly seems like a power issue rather than an input issue, as it was going on all channels. And you have ruled out the mains in your house as it happened at a gig (unless the gig was in your house?). Does the CQ12T have the same power supply as the CQ18? If so can you try it with that power supply and see if the issue remains, a replacement power supply would be about the cheapest option

Careful curation? hah - not in our band, the sax gets everywhere!

no, I don't

That doesn't seem unreasonable - 10 years ago stuff was much cheaper, and second hand amps have always been a fraction of new ones.

"Ashdown Made in the UK showcases a premium range of bass amplification hand-built at Ashdown's UK HQ, combining British craftsmanship with modern performance." so yes.

Yes, I was quite impressed to see their UK range

To me, Tort always makes anything look cheap, probably because some of the first no name basses I had used tort. White and black work.

Way ahead of you, I predictively boycotted them as I knew it would come to this I think both of my rics and bongo are old enough, and will do for now! I would assume that all budget guitars in the US have gone up, except maybe chinese builds where they can afford to reduce the price.

Not sure at that pitch you would hear the difference!

Probably not a good comparison. It does bass bass better, but then it would do, it is tuned down to f# standard at the moment! I would say it feels more solid than most of the ibanezes (with maybe an exception of the 5005), playability would be fine if I had longer fingers!

I figure that noone is ever going to make more of an effort than an audition, so if he can't be bothered with that he will never be bothered. Sometimes you can mess stuff up playing, that is reasonable but the late and hungover at 3pm would be a no from me.

I think most of them are already sold. I found it pretty hard to get answers from them by email when I was asking about my sei

Like if you have a number of cables running together, he found that having a power cable and an audio cable running next to each other. But that seems not that likely

Oh thats really bad, I assumed you meant just like the occasional pop or click. Is it on one side or is it both? oh I see what you mean, it appears as a signal on all inputs. Are those inputs plugged into anything. It does rule out the speakers, and I would think it either has to be the power supply or the unit itself. Is it connected to any bluetooth / wifi at this point?

Maybe I don't know, I don't use them. But its worth trying to rule out what is causing the issue. Does the AH have an external power supply or a proper plug?

I was referring to the positioning. Ultimately any passive circuit unless you are using rick-o-sound the tones affect the other pickup. Gibsons are far worse because the volume affects the other pickup too!

You get those AJD lit up speaker stands, looks like that: https://www.gear4music.com/PA-DJ-and-Lighting/ADJ-Colour-Stand-LED-Speaker-Stand-With-LED-Legs/27VU
