  1. Its hard to work anything out from that picture, but if your volume is working fine, and your tone is doing something but the volume is reduced with the tone down, it generally means your tone cap is acting like a resistor, so is shorting out or something
  2. They were the support at the above gig
  3. We have a friend on FB that does that, she live streams gigs which to me sound like the hight of rudeness if not actually illegal, and she will then post about 150 photos afterwards of the gig, almost all blurry or the wrong angle or the floor ot whatever. She does actually post like that for anything - ie, holiday, 300 photo dump.. here is the beach, here is the beach, here is the beach at an off angle, here is the beach slightly blurry. Dont get it - I generally take one or two photos, just as I use it to remind myself where I was when i am looking back, so that photo above was my only photo at tool, and I can look in my photos and say 'oh yes, 9th May 2022 I went to see tool' as I have a tendency to think things were less time ago!
  4. I do love the peerless - I have a gigmaster guitar that I haven't played in years somewhere upstairs. I made the mistake of replacing the woodent bridge with a metal roller bridge, don't ever do that. Luckily it isn't bolted in so it is an easy swap back!
  5. He certainly also didn't moan about the cameras, he didn't mention them for most of the set, but there were signs when you were walking to the venue (the O2), there were signs when you came in and there were signs all over the auditorium, you couldn't not know. If you used your phone, security would come and have a word, and if you used it after security had a word, security came and took you out. i thought it was handled well. Before the last song, he said you can now use your phones if you wanted to and everyones came out, even I felt compelled to take a picture then, and made you appreciate the time before! I would certainly be happy to pay extra for phone security.
  6. I should investigate the use of mine - I have a b1four and a B3n and have barely used either. Which is odd, I gigged the B3 before it mercilessly
  7. I saw tool last year and it was fantastic, especially as noone was taking photos. you don't realise how good a gig without phones is until you are in the middle of it. Honestly it makes the gig so much better, and it was pretty good to start with.
  8. Tape??? Was a waxed cylinder not good enough for you or something?
  9. When I learned it I just used the Cover solutions video
  10. Quite a lot of power, or one screwdriver
  11. When I was young, they were the only type available!
  12. Basically they are running out of 60s basses so trying to ramp up the prices of 70s ones.
  13. It is a lot cheaper over here, and there are a lot fewer 'Selling my dads fender base its about 100 years old and I think it was the original one, plees ignore the encore badge'
  14. A speaker doesn't care about stuff like resistance matches, or have any knowledge of it. It is basically down to the power. If you have put more power into the system than it can handle you can obviously destroy it (or even less power but the wrong signal), but it doesn't matter from a speakers point of view if you mix a 4 ohm speaker with a 16 ohm speaker, as long as you are aware that most of the power goes mostly through the 4 ohm speakers. Matching only matters to an amplifier, and generally only a valve amp But as others said - have a look at the cones, if one has a big hole in it, that will be the badger!
  15. Edit your first post of your thread (which edits the title) and add the word SOLD to the end of the post, the system will automatically lock it (case isnt important)
  16. I have also had to return with eBay and if you can manage to get through to a person they are good to deal with.
  17. The euro 5 rst (which I have) sounds very good but nothing like the Non RST euro I have with EMGs, sound much closer to my Ibanez premiums
  18. the g&l is active in the true sense of the word. There is nothing that says an active preamp needs any tone controls, it is just a feature of them most has as it is convenient. Mr Fender understood this more than most, which is why the tone controls are passive on the L series
  19. I spent years waiting for an ibanez Artcore 5 string semi hollow to appear, everything turns up eventually
  20. I had a look and you can get those thing, but yes, they are pretty thick, I would just use the volume and replace the blend on its own if you need that.
