Thank you for the confirmation. This what I had expected (and hoped).

This is a more general question, which is why it's not in the Behringer thread. The mixer allows eq at 3 stages overall. Channel, monitor and FoH. I would expect (within a little), the first 2 can be pretty well set, with the FoH eq being tweaked for the room at each gig (if necessary). My question is with regard to the channel eq. Can this be set while using cans? It strikes me it's more to do with the actual sound of the voice and, if that's the case, wouldn't cans work at this stage, with the overall FoH eq compensating for the effects of the room you're in? It seems logical to me, but I'm barely a novice at this. Any advice gratefully received.

Pedant alert. VAT is the final charge and goes on the cost after Duty is charged.

I can assure you there's no Mickey taking, storm in a tea cup stuff here.

I have bought a couple of basses from Ishibashi, and both times it was seamless and straightforward. I think delivery may have been a couple of weeks. I would certainly recommend them. The ones that do make me think are those that say free delivery. VAT and Duty are charged on trhe full cost (including these) so it's clearly some kind of wheeze, but I do wonder how these are dealt with, as it can't be free. Anyway, slight digression.

I always look at the Acoustic gear on sale here and wish it was a practical choice for me. I spent my early years, as a bassist, lusting after a rig like John Deacon's. Way out of my price range at the time. I had a budget version with a 1x18 and two Sound City 4x12s but it was always the 371 rig I wanted. Green with envy and enjoy your new rig.

They are an excellent addition to the lead bag.

He recorded their album using a Precision with two Thunderbird pickups through a Fender Deluxe.

That was the general approach. I am not willing or able to go fully down the PA route so have a solution that works for me.

Latest news is that ZS 'smokes' rather a lot, and was at least 3 hours late for rehearsals for the RAH gigs. Possibly the wrong original member is getting the blame.

Apparently it's been brewing for a long time. The kit is a Roland kit built into DW shells (by DW).

Much.

I'd like to see them replace the singer with a guy I saw advertised at a venue (doubtless a tribute) - Rog Adultery.

I was talking to Pino's brother at a gig a few years ago (it was down the road from his home) and he was saying that Pino enjoyed the luxury of a Who tour, but didn't like the music and compared it to really enjoying playing with D'Angelo but didn't enjoy the lack of luxury while touring. First world problems, I guess.

He makes some amazing instruments. Mainly makes guitars, based on the strat you mention, and Robben Ford's '61 tele (he was guitar tech for both). He recently made his first Les Paul and it's stunning.

That had been what had prompted my investigation, but the memorial page is from MacMillan and so there may have been another explanation. No age to go, but it would have been all the more tragic had she had a hand in it hertself.

Through mutual friends, I play in a band with him (Simon Law) and he built my two main stage basses for me (replicas of my 66 Precision).

I can only repeat that I get a great result with a single 12" sub. I guess it's not optimum performance but it sounds great to my ears, and others.

I am meeting up with Pete's tech in the next few days. I'll report anything exciting.

An earlier thread played on my mind and I tried to find an answer. I did. I have added a post to In Memoriam. RIP, Sam. 😞

SamIAm I had been concerned about Sam for some time and decided to see if the web could provide an answer. Unhappily so. It seems she has left us. The link is to a MacMillan tribute, so I guess we can assume how she passed. How very sad. https://samanthamargerison.muchloved.com/

I used them (TX10s) as monitors and they worked very well.

The OLP version was passive. Maybe there are owners out there who can describe it.
