MB1. I like 10s, another 2x10 for me please!

MB1. Im not into Fenders However the workmanship and playability of the Marcus Miller Jazz (made in japan) is spot on!.

[quote name='rodl2005' post='85233' date='Nov 8 2007, 08:10 AM']I don't really think picking up taxi's etc... is just low end gear- Our old rehearsal room was right in the centre of the city, & we used to get all the 'lads' chatting on their CB radio's- oh that was often VERY SAD!!!! This would come thru out Fender Twin, Marshall fjfiuf ??? can't remember-this was 1991 !!!!! Doesn't it have something to do with ppl acting as ariels -via the guitars if not earthed properly....sumink like that! OT- GLAD to hear the Laney 400w is a good one. I'll be pushing my local into getting one in.....I, too, won't be buying it tho [/quote] MB1. I have a feeling there will be a lot of shops that may stock them but wont be selling them,if this is anything to go by. If Sound Control can get there hands on a job lot, the price may be more acceptable.

[quote name='Jean-Luc Pickguard' post='85285' date='Nov 8 2007, 10:00 AM']Is it designed to be played by the producer or another band member while the bass player is away shooting up somewhere? [/quote] MB1. Drugs and music!...They dont mix you know!....it'll end in tears!

MB1. All the main car parks are sign posted and there are a few off oxford rd. You can walk down oxford road or catch a bus to the Royal Northern College of Music.I would advise you to park in the car parks.

MB1. Put it in the car park wherever possible!..........They Have Mopeds and Work Overtime!

MB1. Actually thought this had somthing to do with Frank Zappa ....."Lets make the water turn black"......again!........Wrong sort of Pads?.

[quote name='G-bitch' post='84479' date='Nov 6 2007, 04:01 PM']They always have been the cheap end of the scale for bass - their guitar stuff however, is quite different, one of my favourite heavy guitar sounds I've heard live came from a Laney head. They're based about a 5 minute walk around the corner from where I used to rehearse; should have been practising my breaking and entering shouldn't i? [/quote] MB1. Youll have to get one of those New Type Hoodies and a Gun case from Maplins.

MB1. A guitarist in a band i used to play in, used to be able to get Chris Moyles on his laney combo!and various local taxi firms.Must admit it made rehearsals most amusing!.Ive always seen Laney at the cheaper end of the scale,they do have a lot to prove and theres a lot of competition in that area.

[quote name='G-bitch' post='84431' date='Nov 6 2007, 02:39 PM']Seriously - I hope that people do not approach this head with that kind of brand prejudice, it's an absolutely beast that is well worthy of comparison with the best heads out there.[/quote] MB1. On Commision eh?

MB1. You just mentioned Ampeg and Laney in the same sentence!

MB1. With the amount of bands re-emerging (apparently through popular demand) it might be seen as somewhat misleading.Not a good idea if the back catalogues still available, theyll still have the name under copyright.

[quote name='charic' post='73661' date='Oct 13 2007, 06:52 AM']Free beer Think of the amount of people thatll bring in from the sign on the door! "Free Beer Here Tonight!![/quote] MB1. Think of the amount of people who wont be impressed, when they find out there isnt?

[quote name='bassninja' post='83643' date='Nov 4 2007, 07:17 PM']MB1. More than one band with the name Premature Ejeculators?...... well you know what they say?........."First come,First Served". I 'spose whoever came first would get to keep the name...[/quote] MB1. might be quicker than a lengthy trial in the courts!

[quote name='HarryPotter' post='83599' date='Nov 4 2007, 05:38 PM']There is merit in what you say, but as we get older we will also have an epiphany moment where we come to realise that we don't need 12 string basses with supercomuter standard effects. We simply need a simple honest tone, and then once you have seen the light, you reach for one of Leo's finest. It has happened to me, it's finally happening to my brother (what a relief) - He now plays an '84 Tokai Strat through an Orange valve amp, you don't need more.[/quote] MB1. +1 By jove! Harry gets my vote! Why would anybody want to play a Trouser Press?

MB1. Whenever anyone mentions Fender Precision I immediately think of the "live and dangerous" cover.

MB1. Ended up picking ..........Rock Stock And Barrel!......sounds close enough to Cock Rock and Flannel!

[quote name='Deep Thought' post='72138' date='Oct 10 2007, 12:26 PM']Me and my mate got to the stage of driving down the road shouting out anything we saw-'The broken down vans!' 'The National Speed Limits Applies!' 'The Dead Rabbits!' 'Toads crossing!' etc. Didn't come up with anything but it was an approach I suppose.[/quote] MB1. Traffic warden Roadkill?

[quote name='cheddatom' date='Oct 10 2007, 10:51 AM' post='72084'] That's a very cool name!! I'm playing drums in a band, just for fun, and we're called the Premature Ejaculators. We thought we'd be the only ones, but there are another 2 bands out there with the same name! Grrr. MB1. More than one band with the name Premature Ejeculators?...... well you know what they say?........."First come,First Served".

MB1. I gather that youll (as per usual) be able to pay on the door to get into Bassday 2007?. However, how exactly are we going to know who everyone is? basschatter from a well known top uk bassist? or indeed lost trainspotter?(titter ye not!....your not that far away from trainspotter h.q) piccadilly station....Will there be a basschat stall where you can lay your burden down and have a relaxing pot of tea and Eccles cake?.

MB1. WELCOME!......... MRCROW!......From Sunny Mancunia!........and a fellow Mancunian!.
