  1. Don’t buy a trad amp/cab until you have tried an FRFR setup. I play a Rob Allen fretless, my first serious foray into fretless, a part of that decision was seeing that video of Nardis, another part was my forty year long love of Mick Karn! I used to play through an AER amp but nothing (imho) compares to a decent FRFR setup. I go through a HX Stomp into a QSC K12.2 and it’s superb but in all honesty it sounds delicious going straight into the QSC.
  2. I love it, never going back to a trad rig. Quieter gigs it can be used as a monitor or backline but louder gigs it’s fine as a monitor, you don’t need anything else imho.
  3. Excellent, looks very, very similar to mine. (QSC K12.2 / HX Stomp).
  4. Go FRFR and never look at another amp or cab again!
  5. Exactly this. I ordered a case from Rob Allen in California which zoomed efficiently across the world only to be mislaid in my local post office. I had to direct the staff from behind the counter to actually move something before they found it, utterly hopeless.
  6. Indeed so, your moniker should be PunkPonyPrincessofProfessionalPacking Anyway, good luck with recovering the bass!
  7. I use Logic Pro X along with two Scarlett interfaces, the Scarlett Solo and the Scarlett 18i20 (2nd gen), both into a MacBook Pro. I had a similar enquiry a while back and got some excellent advice especially from @Sibob.
  8. That’s bad design initially and if they decided to stick with that bad design then at least round off the sharp edges, poor show top to bottom, that injury could have cost you your playing career. Bad form.
  9. Just watched Lovers Rock the first episode of Steve McQueen’s new series Small Axe. Wasn’t expecting much but I just thoroughly enjoyed it, not so much narrative but more a tone poem really.
  10. Oh sh***ing f***berries. I want one of these in this colour, with these pickups, with that headstock and... Oh sh***ing f***berries.
  11. It used to be very interesting in their heyday to look into the crowd in front of Geordie/in the dressing room after and see various guitarists from bands trying to suss out/discuss his playing.
  12. I think this was the last tour that Geordie used his Burman amps, he never again got that immense sound after they broke down.
  13. I don’t know about you but there’s nothing I like better than finishing off a busy Thursday by watching Toyah chop courgettes while Robert Fripp plays the riff from Frame-by-Frame...
  14. A most tricky threesome to comprehend let alone cope with.
  15. I would put them a close second to The Stranglers in this respect.
  16. Tried to sneak into this recording prior to their gig in Newcastle that evening but was a bit pïssëd. The usual method, which was via a bog window aided by Raven, oh well.
  17. The Giant Demon Baby In A Pram With The Flies That's the title of my forthcoming autobiography sorted.
