    I used to own a U5. What it did offer for me was real immediacy and bucketloads of headroom. I really liked it for that. I am not suggesting you are wrong and I am right. It is all subjective and situation specific.

    Sadly, the end of the pier has been closed for a refurb for 9 months which is really sad because they do a killer Victoria Sponge and the older I get the more I am all about Victoria Sponge. Even more so with ice cream as well. That is living. As for South Wales being lovelier....... yeah...... well........

    I owned one of these in black. Bought from AC/DC's drum tech with the money I had left over at the end of my 2nd year of University. Grants and all that stuff. Sorry kids.

    I did, but the Bolin had a Fishman OEM piezo pickup and preamp set up that I could not source.

    I have a set of Ghost saddles in a bass. I once had a Bolin NS bass and foolishly sold it. I NEEDED something else. Live and learn - one day maybe. Anyway, it had a lovely, lovely piezo sound. I have tried to recreate that with this set of Ghosts. I have not managed, I do not know if it is the bass, the saddles or the preamp or a combination of all. They just do not bloom like the Bolin did. Mind you, nothing else has either (MM Bongo with piezo bridge and another custom).

    Just as well that is not a fretted 5 string!

    I had a Bolin NS bass and the piezo pickup was just sublime. I still miss it

    I used mine in anger at an open air gig at the local Castle. It is just a beast. A 3x10" + horn cab has NO right sounding this good and shifting this much air. The effortless extension all the way down to bottom B is a joy. I have tried gazillions of preamps through it ans they all sound great. I had got to the stage where I thought all preamps sounded great. How wrong I was. I tried them through other things and I understood how magic this cab is. Someone needs to take this and experience the IP310 joy for themselves.

    Or me.

    I always hope that something less expensive will be capable of something similar .......

    Anything that lets me do this (even with shocking playing) is fine by me Future Impact.wav

    I love it. It does what I had always hoped I would find in a synth pedal. Some adjustment for some patches, but it is a new instrument so I would expect to adjust, like any pedal really. I have to adjust when using my OC2. I have to adjust using a Boss Slicer. But that is fine.

    Thanks for the directions. It looks like my friend who was saving up for re-shells has timed it rather poorly

    Curved Capo

    Owen replied to Owen's topic in Guitars

    So as to provide closure to my original request I worked that I could go into alternate tunings on the DB to create the harmonic structures I was looking for and therefore the capo became redundant. It was fun while it lasted though!
  24. Owen
    I feel your pain.

    It turns out that I did need the Demeter.
