  1. Pal No 1 : " Hey who's that on bass ? " Pal No.2 : " Thats fleabag " Pal No.1 : " Wow, he's friggin ' awesome. Why isnt he rich and famous ? "
  2. I was just thinking my apartment entry buzzer speaker has more xmax than that driver 🤓
  3. Not really with some of the early musicians. Hensley and Kerslake both died in 2020, and Byron died very young in 1985 at 38 New Zealander basser Gary Thain who replaced Mark Clarke in '72, died even younger in 1975 at 27. Mick Box of the classic line up ( Thain, Box, Hensley, Byron, Kerslake ) is still going though
  4. Gary Thain going some on Jazz Bass
  5. Actually, the bass line on Lorraine is pretty awesome IMO
  6. As a teenager myself a few hundred years back, i had The Magicians Birthday by Heep, and if you have a listen, there maybe some hot bass lines on that too. I cant remember anymore, been too long but it was a hell of an album. Hensley who was a brilliant writer , composed 99% of the tracks. It was slated a bit by the press, against albums like Look at Yourself, and Demons, but i love Byrons vocal and Boxs' guitar work on that discette
  7. Hide the thread on the morning of Wonky's evening visit.
  8. Indeed, but i couldnt be bothered to actually name every demographic he's targetted. Everyone knows already so i didnt really need to. I hope you havent been unfair and forgotten anyone
  9. Isnt he too busy ripping off hard working amateur musicians to be reading this thread ?
  10. I knew it ! Please keep details and let us all know. I dont have an oar in the water re this Mason to$$er, but i am chomping at the bit to hear the tw@t has finally met the wong ( right ) person.
  11. Marvellous ! 12mm may well be strong enough if it's hardwood ply One thing i kept saying earlier, was that i wasnt going to use vinyl or any covering because of getting the amp back in the combo, but it's not the amp that'll be covered, it's the DIY sleeve ! What a muppet
  12. This makes a lot of sense chaps ! Thanks
  13. Thats pretty much my plan right there. No vinyl or such as it has to be stuck down, and then getting the head back in the combo would be a right trauma. Varnish only Currently have a stock of Titebond and plenty of screws. I may need some ...are they called coach bolts ?.... to mount the amp from the top as it were mounted in the combo. 4 big round headed bolts, possibly allen head.
  14. Not a good enough carpenter to go that route.
  15. I wonder if it was an AH series - I.E. one TE 's stand alone heads. Unless someone cut the slotted end plates off a combo head, drilled the sides for attaching " ears " for a rack mount ?
  16. 12mm would seem better for weight and cost , just wondering if it's sturdy enough. I've had a look at edge extrusions / alloy angle plate and they're expensive for what they are.
  17. Ah, okay. Yes saw that too, but he's changed the pickups to EMG's. It would seem he's modified the switching as well. There's no 3 way switches on mine
  18. Yeah i saw that. It's been modified. None of the switches on mine are 3 way Was it a really sparkly finish on the reverb one ? There's a YT vid of him explaining what he did.
  19. That's probably a damn good guess V, but it would be handy to know for sure. As of right now, if all switches are up, there's no output If the rearmost switch is down, the others dont switch on or off pickups, they just change tone slightly. Dont hear a lot of change when using the push pull
