  1. I'm making the assumption that the rest of the band are feeling the same way about the situation? If you haven't discussed it together, it's time to have a band meeting. If they feel the same way, then sack the current singer. If they don't feel the same, then walk away. Or stick around and pander to the singer...
  2. Stairway to Heaven - Led Zeppelin
  3. Have a one off HW 4003, superb bass.
  4. Breadfan - Budgie
  5. Simultaneously too many and not enough.
  6. Call Me Maybe - Carly Rae Jepson
  7. I'm the Urban Spaceman - The Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band
  8. I used a Line6 HD500x before the POD Go, but had got to a point where I was considering individual pedals, or the POD Go (went through the same process going from the PODxt Live to the HD500x). Costed up choice pedals, tuner, a PSU, a board/case, patch cables, etc. and came to the conclusion that the multi-FX was the way to go for me. If you factor in that if you bought say 6 pedals, you may need to replace 2-3 because the original choices may not work out for you and be replaced. GAS plays a role too.
  9. I suppose the next question would be, do you need amp/cab modelling, or just effects? If you're just wanting effects into your amp, then it would be the HX FX every time. If you do want amp/cab modelling, then you need to ask yourself more questions. How many effects do you need at one time? More than 3 per song, then the POD Go is out (have one myself, it's great, but limited). There are work-arounds, likes switching between patches/presets. The HX Stomp / Stomp XL have most of the functionality of the Helix, but not the footswitches or connectivity. Loads of options though, parallel signal paths and lots of other goodies. Sure a HX/Helix user will be along to fill in the plus points. Don't know much about the B6, but it'll have plenty of effects as well as amp/cab models, so loads to choose from. Having been down the pedal board rabbit hole with guitar effects, it is a hit or miss affair, which can end up with serious serial pedal purchasing just trying to find the right pedals that work for you. Great fun, but a complete money pit, and you end up with a ton of pedals, associated boxes and other paraphernalia kicking about.
  10. Two Minutes to Midnight - Iron Maiden
  11. Bought a lot of stuff from Thomann pre-Brexit, no issues at all, and always cheaper than buying from the UK (especially when it comes to postage costs).
  12. Rock and Roll Aint Noise Pollution - AC/DC
  13. Red Barchetta - Rush
  14. Are You Gonna Go My Way - Lenny Kravitz
  15. Get Up, Stand Up - Bob Marley & The Wailers
  16. Those "cat eye" soundholes are cool. A lovely looking instrument.
  17. Dancing on the Ceiling - Lional Richie
  18. There She Goes - The La's
  19. Into the Unknown - Killing Joke
  20. Running In The Family - Level 42
  21. Reality is Waiting for a Bus - Subhumans
  22. Pearl's A Singer - Elkie Brooks
  23. Warwick Red Label are available in both Stainless Steel and Nickel. Used to use the Stainless ones, which were great, lasted well but a bit rough. Then discovered Fender Stainless Rounds (now discontinued), which I thought were excellent (and reasonably priced too), but then they were discontinued. Searched around for something similar, tried some Elite Stadium's, but I didn't like them this time around (used them in the past). When I couldn't get hold of the Fender's anymore, moved to Dunlop DBS Stainless. Again, decent sound, decent longevity, reasonable price. All good, until I bought my 4003, which didn't seem to get on with the Dunlops, just didn't sound anywhere near as good as it should have. I'd heard that D'Addario ProSteel's were supposed to sound good on Ric's, so I bought some to try out. The 4003 came alive, so that was that.
  24. I Wanna Be Your Dog - Stooges
