I thought it was a Christopher Guest film...

Just finished, catch it on iPlayer. Quite the most hilarious thing I’ve seen for ages.

That is glorious...

Seriously, is anyone watching the Bros documentary on BBC4 at the moment. It is absolute hilarity gold, really, seriously, tune in.

It just has very serious look that says “I am capable of knocking down buildings”.

As much as the FRFR solution is (imho) very much about hearing one’s instrument without the colour certain amps and cabs give to it, for me the weight and size issue was hugely important. The K12.2 rattles my house just nicely! I think you are being wise not putting all your eggs in one basket. I looked. It reminds me of a rig I used in a thrash band I was in. There is a hugely heavy Acoustic (as in the make) head and cab at one of the venues I play at that I deeply covet, if I thought they’d sell it to me I’d buy it in a heartbeat, but, I don’t think I’d use it if I got it home, nonetheless, for some reason, I still want it.

I don’t think that’s going to happen, having just gone over to using a K12.2 myself I get the distinct feeling it’s a a one way street once you’re converted.

As I was typing it I was (genuinely) thinking I’m becoming a bit of a pain in the behind convert zealot, although this is an ideal time to go FRFR I also think it’s possibly time for me to shut up about it. I haven’t seen his latest acquisition but heading over now.

You do realise this is your chance to change your bass life forever and move over to an FRFR solution?

A band I used to work for back in the 90s, Collapsed Lung, small but sold out crowd of 100, great vibe, great band. Here’s the rig...

Hello!

Oh my god, it has a look that reminds me of 70s furniture, and I mean that in that’s the highest aesthetic praise I could possibly give to an object. That is my idea of a thing of absolute beauty...

No..?

Oddly enough, being a huge Japan fan, I’m a huge Polaroids onwards Japan fan, I’m not that fond of Quiet Life and haven’t heard any pre-Quiet Life output.

Empires and Dance by Simple minds is a great album, I’m not bothered after that really.

I disliked The Armoury Show too, despite John McGeoch (one of my favourite guitarists) playing for them.

Sorry! I use it with an Ibanez SRC6 and it sounds just as good.

I can’t fault it, mind you I use it for acoustic bass only but I’d say it was ideal for the scenario you describe.

I totally agree, Metal Box is my top album of all time.

I loved aThe Skids but despised Big Country and I’m always surprised that the latter are held in such high esteem, am I missing something?

Post-Gabriel Genesis, dreadful. The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway is my favourite prog album ever.
