    Of course it wasn't - it was about the media lumping everyone who made a band in the late 70s into the latest genre and a type of music. I think it is just a type of music, you like it or you don't

    And in doing so made themselves the only metal band name that anyone remembers!

    Its a shame, the 4003s is much better with the smooth edges, but it looks so poor without the proper inlays. Why can't they do a 4003 without the edges!

    For something that is in the 1000s, it is worth going there to inspect, as they are not experts. I got my 5 string ibanez semi acoustic there - handy for things that aren't valuable, other things can be a tad overpriced as a lot of people seem to forget the fees, plus now our economy is bad, there are a lot more european bidders.

    And the strat that went with the 63 went for £20,000!

    If it is for sale / for trade, just put 'trade only' in the title. If you don't want a sale, you don't have to accept any sales. That way you can just search for it now

    No, the thread would have been removed!

    They aren't that rare (unless there is something odd about yours). I played one at my local guitar shop, and seen another couple. it would be hard to get a circuit as aria don put them out although there is the thread here https://www.soundonsound.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=61857 where it shows it should be a reasonable easy thing to diagnose if you do electronics

    Got mine today, gave it a spin at lunch, sounds great. Will have to spend some time with it tonight. A lot smaller than I thought it was, which is handy

    It is certainly in that range!

    Funny, the old guitarist asked if I could make a gate when he did play it

    I briefly though about the core, but if it can't do what the SY200 can do, it seems it doesn't bring much to the party over the HXFX.

    My Squier Mustang has Fender Flats on it, which are the only flats I use* (that I kept) and also the only time I used fender strings! I wanted flats for the AGB, as it tends to be the one I play acoustically these days as it is the loudest acoustic. The chromes were too anaemic, they didn't sound good at all, which is why i thought I would go for the original gauge. It probably isn't a bass I would be gigging much (I took it to a gig, it was so boomy) so not so important. * by that I mean, the only bass I use that has flats on!

    On strings I wanted new strings for my AGB 205 as I think they may be the original, and it has to be a decade old. After measuring I realised that although it is short scale, it has so much gap behind the bridge that it uses long scale strings I had some old chromes, thought they would work but the are way smaller than the strings on the original. looked up the original sizes and they are 55 - 145, so couldn't find flats. couldn't actually find a t string set either, so got a 4 string set and an individual

    I have a handy mute button on the mixer next to me, but he tends to spring it on me!

    The spector def needs the gold

    I would like a "singer handed the microphone to the most tone deaf woman in the room" filter, but they don't seem to have one!

    I assume that Trace Elliot had a lot of valves left over in the factory when they shut down the plant, and ashdown just carried on using them recently.
  21. Woodinblack
    Indeed - was mentioned in the release

    Certainly if you want to be cabled that is probably the best way. I am wireless both ways.

    Honestly I would like something better, but for me, the XVives, while being mono and maybe not the best, don't cost that much (I think they are on the high side of what they are worth), but the fact it is a bit of equipment that I don't have to put somewhere, find a plug for, set up etc is worth it for me. I already have the PA, the cables etc. OK, not quite so bad now as we have a new guitarist and unlike the old one, he helps setup / breakdown (I would have mentioned that I wouldn't carry the evox 8 and the alto back to my car in one go had I seen him start - still, he will know next time!) If someone else was doing it for me I woud be happy with something else, but when I look at equipment purchases now, after years of gigging, my views are "How does this make my setup easier?". If its no easier but better, thats fine, but if it actually is more complicated, then it better be a hell of a lot bettter than what I have to be used.

    Do an admin request with what name you want etc (or PM me about it).

    Yeh - from my photos he seems to have started that in 2014 and its just been a bit longer each year
