Genz Benz Shuttle 6 combo 12T and a matching 1x12 ext cab has managed everything I've thrown at it gig wise for the last 8 years. The combo for small gigs and add the ext for the full 600w for a bit more oomph. Larger venues just the 1x12 tilt back combo as my monitor and FOH for the main. Nice and light, cheap to buy (relatively) and ultra reliable.

I guess Clapton's Blackie Strat had the most famous fag burn. I knew two guitarists who deliberately did the same to their black Strats??? Ah, the good old days when you smoked on stage. I haven't smoked for 7 years now but still sort of miss the smokes and lighter on top of my amp under an elastic band so they didn't shake off and engineering enough of a pause between songs to get one lit😆

Trace TA50R sold pending usual. Trace Elliot TA50R in fab condition for it's age. Everything works as it should. Beautiful sound for acoustics but my 335 and Thinline Tele sound brilliant through it too. 2 channel with XLR with phantom power option on channel 2 for vox or line in for 2nd instrument. Has reverb, on board effects (16 settings) shape switch, notch filter and Trace 5 band EQ. No tears in Tolex, and sounds great. These have always been highly regarded due to quality of sound and build quality. Built like a tank. So, why spend £150 on a new 30 watt piece of cheap dung when £100 buys you some ultra reliable, highly portable quality? Marshall AS80R acoustic combo. Don't see many of the 80w versions of these. They were great. Everything works on this one but a little tatty on top (pictured), and the back has been removed before I got it. Never bothered to cut a new one as it sounds great without it. Three channels, so you can have a couple of guitars and a vocal mic via the XLR input. Two 50w Celestions and the tweeter give this a great sound. So, if you're into solo or duo gigs, it's a steal at £120. Comes with VERY heavy duty non Marshall fitted cover. Whichever combo sells first, I'll keep the other. Neon Gibson USA sign. 85cms x 60cms Partly working as you can see. The neck tube has a crack in it. There are plenty of repairers around but this still looks great on a studio wall or in a man/woman cave. 230v Please note, the outer tube on the body does not work, what you see in the picture is the inner of the two lighting it up. This image is how it all looks in low light but still a hell of a cool thing to have on the wall. £75. No trades and collection only I'm afraid but loo, tea/coffee and quality biscuit available if you'd like to come and try it out. Have a choice of electro acoustics here if you don't want to bring yours.

Tech question re AER Compact mobile
leschirons replied to leschirons's topic in Repairs and Technical
Sent a mail to AER first (3 days ago) and no reply yet although I guess, what with the holidays and all that. I'll send another, for his attention and see what happens. Thanks for the info. -
Just a quickie, maybe someone will have an idea. I'm clearing out a few bits, one of which is my AER Compact Mobile amp. Haven't used it for a good couple of years and now it won't charge when connected to the mains. Have sourced new batteries to fit before putting it up for sale however, the actual charge light does not light up. I get that the batteries are probably no good but I'm concerned that if I change them, there may also be a fault with the charge circuit. So, if a battery / batteries are no good, would that stop the charge light illuminating? Thanks in advance.

Obviously, they'll be hoping to find a vegan with a great voice but I guess I'm sort of intrigued that if there has to be some sort of compromise, on which side would it be? A committed vegan who can sing, is maybe different from a great singer, who happens to be vegan. I'm not making fun of this. I really am intrigued by it all.

Just seen this advert. I mean, you can sort of prove your a female bassist, or guy between 18 and 30 and I guess sometimes, you really do have to be committed to the performance 100% but how would they know if you're partial to the odd bacon buttie? Vegan Vocalist Wanted For Cultural Campaign Song and Fashion Music Video Hi there, I'm looking for a Vocalist who's a Vegan for a Vegan Song Recording and Fashion Music Video. I'm more into a cool character of a Vocal than a big Diva Voice, so If you're a vocalist who fits the bill etc etc.

He wasn't a bass player either😆

I've decided to wait for the Brian May 4 pack of artisan Scotch eggs to come out.
-
Personally..not for me but I probably would go for a Brian May signature telescope.

Isn't that a bit like a "Slash" tenor sax or a Marcus Miller Strat?

Had a black SG2000 back in the day. Ex Jimmy Page guitar with providence, although I never ever saw him use one. Fantastic sound but a little too heavy. Another one of my great moves, selling that😂

Epiphone Joe Pass Emperor in lovely condition with a Seymour Duncan in the neck position. Pick guard missing but that's how I got it. Lots of players take them off anyway. Got this on BC a few years back. It's been great. I used it for three years solid in a jazzy duo act in France and it sounded great. Stays in tune, fab low action and comes with a shaped, plush lined hard case.

Songs you always wanted to play but never did...
leschirons replied to uk_lefty's topic in General Discussion
I actually got the band to try these, just once in each case, and they dropped them after each one, sent the audience crazy. Considering we were a party covers band known for whipping up a frenzy, I couldn't believe how shortsighted the others in the band were. We played them well too. Very frustrating for me. Never can say goodbye, Communards version. 99 Red balloons, Goldfinger version Streets with no name I'm outa love, Anastasia Waterfront, Simple minds Word up, Gun version
