[quote name='MacDaddy' timestamp='1456583065' post='2990475'] I tried a 350, and used it at a rehearsal with a metal band (2 git, drum, vox). We rehearse at ridiculous near gig levels and it was plenty loud enough. [/quote] BTW this was through an 8 ohm cab.

I've got a Zebra print Blitz [size=4] [/size] [size=4]I'd put a pic but I'm at my allowance. [/size]

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1456582574' post='2990471'] I don't agree, given the Tone Hammer's versatile Gain and Drive controls you can easily get that Ampeg-like harmonic grit playing a P Bass with rounds and a pick, and at high volume too. It's a great amp for practically any genre. IMHO. [/quote] I tried a 350, and used it at a rehearsal with a metal band (2 git, drum, vox). We rehearse at ridiculous near gig levels and it was plenty loud enough. TBH I probably needed to spend a bit longer with it to get to grips with the drive and gain controls, but I got some good sounds from it. Ended up buying a tecamp puma because it's simpler and smaller.

Thanks for the replies [size=4] [/size]

Newby question, but can audio interfaces be used to just listen to music, or are they only for recording? I've got a line 6 tone port, but I've not plugged it in yet.

Hi all What is the best way to hookup my (powered) speakers to my laptop? My old PC had speaker outs, but my laptop has 2 headphone outs. Are these still the way to go? Ta.

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1456176843' post='2986376'] Wow, my dad was not in the Applejacks, either! What are the odds?? [/quote] About as remote as someone reading the following sentence of the quote?

[quote name='seashell' timestamp='1456161501' post='2986098'] Alas I shall have to remove myself from the list. I've been invited to a wedding, which is going to involve pretty much the whole weekend. It's the wedding of a dear friend and former housemate of mine, so should turn into a bit of a reunion of those of us who were all hip and trendy in Slough in the 80's (yes, that is possible!) It was like 'Friends' personified, lol. Anyway, back to the Bass Bash, I'll have to duck out on this occasion but hope to see some of you at LBGS.

[quote name='EssentialTension' timestamp='1456158446' post='2986046'] Here we go with basswoman Megan Davies ... wouldn't embed so here's the link ... [url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_yRxDKAYwlM"]https://www.youtube....h?v=_yRxDKAYwlM[/url] [media]http://youtu.be/_yRxDKAYwlM[/media] [/quote] My Dad was not in the Applejacks. This is not as entirely random a comment as it may first appear, as I'm sure many other BC'ers Dad's were also not in the Applejacks. But my Dad was with them once when fans were asking for autographs, and they were asking him too. He asked a band member what to do and was told 'sign them!'. So he did. So later that evening there must have been quite a few Applejacks fans looking at my Dad's autograph, wondering 'who the hell is that?'.

[quote name='timmo' timestamp='1455983964' post='2984279'] If it is only the left hand that you have problems with, and you can still use your plucking fingers, have you tried a left handed bass. I had to do it as I have no movement in my little finger. It was difficult at first, but the best thing I did in terms of bass playing [/quote] This was my first thought. And maybe use a pick too?

Pics or it never happened ;-)

[quote name='neepheid' timestamp='1455884690' post='2983269'] I like my gear. [/quote] This, or 'it's mine and I want it'.

A Mexican bass made with USA parts by a Mexican in Mexico, or a USA bass made with USA parts by a Mexican in the USA?

They walk amongst us, and their purpose is to help us find our way." I said, "Really? They're going to send down a whiskey-drinking, cigarette-smoking, speed-snorting pirate as an angel?" And she said to me, "Who else would you guys listen to? Some guy in a flowing robe with wings? Lemmy Kilmister — that's the angel you guys are gonna listen to!"[/size][/font][/color]

Dave repaired my favourite fx pedal. Awesome job, awesome bloke!

If you need more than Dan has, I've one you can have for the postage.

[quote name='grandad' timestamp='1455056853' post='2975599'] Not this century. Had a nice chat with Jet Harris once. [/quote] I've seen the Shads' a couple of times, albeit without Jet. They happily posed for pics and signed things, and Hank actually asked if everyone was happy and had got what they wanted, before the band left. Legend.
