  1. TBH we all usurp it every day, usurp being the operative here as that’s the sound of a pizza being rammed up a trombone. Just a shot across the bow there, if you want your brass instruments sullied by the forced application of sundry fast foods then don’t say you weren’t warned.
  2. I have had a few transactions with @Burns-bass and have failed to leave feedback on any of them! All these transactions have been absolutely smooth and easy. Lawrie is a complete gentleman and a great basschatter, deal with total confidence.
  3. I go through a Stomp into a QSC K12.2. It’s not the lightest but a K10.2 might be light enough.
  4. How important is gear to your sound? Well, the more you smoke the better you sound… Allegedly.
  5. Is it the gear or is it the room? A little out of column a), a little out of column b).
  6. For one night only, I’m an upstart again. RIP Mensi, great chorus son.
  7. Yeah, and you came in at the wrong place!
  8. Absolutely and completely this ^^^ His anger is the giveaway, it is an clear indicator that he is, in fact, very far from confident in his own abilities. As much as his behaviour angers me it’s over and you’ll be better off in the long run. Granted, I’d have taken a dump in his lead bag as I left… …but this is actually all positive because he’s clearly delusional and has a complex about his inabilities that manifests in anger rather than communication. Real musicianship is about working together and communicating, eventually he’ll be sitting in his room, playing what he wants, the way he wants, with no one, to no one, until he grows the f*** up.
  9. Newtone Strings, they will make up you up whatever you want and their prices are very reasonable.
  10. Yes, anyone can make a mistake, it's how businesses deal with customers when things go wrong that counts and the more I deal with businesses the more I think it is down which individual you happen to get to communicate with, hence the variations in responses from the same company.
  11. Received a reply to my email at midday. Profuse apologies, posting the correct mains lead out to me straight away.
  12. I am awaiting a reply to the email I sent as soon as I took delivery. Although I have purchased another I will be expecting the correct lead to be dispatched and will take it down the route you suggest if one is not forthcoming. You don’t happen to have a link to something that states correct mains should be supplied?
  13. No worries. It has an input on the back specifically for plugging in external devices for play along etc.
  14. I don’t have one. I ordered one straight away from Amazon obviously but I still think if it has a European mains it should say so on the ad, I would have got one prior. I know it’s unlike a musicians not to be knee deep in kettle leads but I just happen not to be right now.

  16. Ordered a QSC K12.2 from Andertons yesterday afternoon around 1pm. DPD emailed to say it would be delivered today between 17:30-18-30 and at 17:35 it arrived. A nasty hole in the side of the box had me worried but luckily (especially as there was no padding inside the box whatsoever) I seem to have got away with it. Unfortunately it arrived with a European mains lead so I am unable to test the unit. I emailed Andertons straight away so we'll see how they respond but so far, very quick.
  17. Welcome Dave. Opinions on the Aerodyne are mixed but I had one and it was lovely, light, glorious to play. By far the nicest Fender I've ever played. it would make a great bass to start on and they can often be picked up second hand. As @TheGreek says, the sires are also a great place to start.
  18. Same happened to me I asked a mate for his genuine opinion of my band… Me: So, what did you think? Mate: Honestly? Me: Yeah, honestly. Mate: I'll answer the question. You want answers? Me: I think I'm entitled to them. Mate: You want answers?! Me: I want the truth! Mate: You can't handle the truth!
  19. Although we’ve already ‘chatted’, welcome.
  20. …and the worst squirrels have no nuts. That’s the world sorted in two ridiculous generalisations, anyone fancy a pint?
  21. Oh yes, sorry, back on topic. Eleventy five.
