Right, I have never really done the FX thing but I have a Neunaber Slate which gives me a shimmer thang which is lovely on arco DB work as well as giving me super long reverbs so that I can set up pads. The reverb has "infinite" tails so I can drop in and out of it while playing "dry" as well. I would also like to do the Strymon Big Sky Chorale thing. Can the Helix family bring me all in one FX joy?

I have no Supertwin experience (but I am sure they are fabulous) - however when I have experienced underwhelmingossity in my backline story it is the amp rather than the cab.

Winning!

I have some graphtec saddles if anyone is interested......

I bought a B3n thinking it would have the same sounds. It did not. So that went back. I will buy another. Or maybe something else. You know how it is.

The RBV has gone but there is a German Warwick double $$ 5 string for £499 there. It could do with respray but if you are not bothered then it is an awful lot of bass for the money. Some nice guitars there as well!

To be fair, that freaked me out completely and I flogged it.

Make sure you get used to them, becaue not using them will mean you will have to stop playing sooner than you want to.

I used to sing in a choir with Bryn Terfel. I passed on a few tips to him. Other than that, singing 4 part harmony is entirely integral to anything else I have ever done musically. I started in chapel wanting to sing the lines my dad was singning. I did not have the correct "equipment" to reach those low notes at the time but it was the beginning of my lifelong love affair with the low frequencies.

I have a Heir. It is just fabulous. I would put a preamp in with a balance control before messing with new pickups.

He is totally feeling it!

Classic - I must learn to read what is there and not what I perceive on a swift scan! You are, of course, correct.

Yes please.

The 15" driver in the 735 has a 3" voice coil whereas the 15" driver in the 745 has a 4" voice coil - so more beef. They share the same sized HF driver (on cursory reading of the specs). Has anyone got any experience of A/B ing them in the real world? The crossover point is only 150hz difference which at 650hz and 800hz is (and I am TOTALLY guesstimating here) perhaps a major 3rd so not HUGE in the grand scheme of things. My GASeous nature always drains my finances and that would cost me an extra £300+. I am not actually going shopping tomorrow, this is just a storing info thing. However, for a speaker which appears to be ALL THAT, why are they both so ugly? Someone has to design them from scratch, so why not make them look like they cared for aesthetics. There is a whiff of Transformer about them.

Hahahahahahahahahahaha. I have actually heard it done, but it is the exception rather than the rule. If your drummer can then never let that drummer go.

Why is no one discussing that blue LED? Very subtle - less is more.

Don't fight it.....
