You should go FNM, soundgarden and soulfly were enough for me! Join me for a pint

[quote name='6v6' timestamp='1396431056' post='2413391'] Bit harsh but I tend to agree. Sounds like the communication could have been handled better, but plenty of people (myself included) play in more than one band without issues. I don't really get the "loyal to just one band" thing at all, provided you have the time to play with different bands and be sufficiently committed, mix it up and play with them IMO, it's all good experience. I agree you should take your time and see how things work out rather than just quitting. [/quote] +1 I don't fully understand - you're in a 3 piece, which does covers? But your guitarist and drummer are forming/reforming a band from years gone by, playing originals? As someone else said above, if you've been together for 4 years and are still enjoying gigging - then why leave? Surely thats a case of cutting your nose of despite your face? Having two bands on the go isn't that hard to do. If gigs start being cancelled and what not, then yeah - look again. But I think you're worrying for no reason.

Tom @ Cog Effects?

I sent a mail to Andertons asking them to confirm... "[size=2]Hi Dave, these have been delayed slightly from the original date expected. We are hoping to see these through around the 10/04 at the latest."[/size]

[quote name='charic' timestamp='1395930700' post='2408097'] It wouldn't let you? It should have allowed you 5 people at a time? How many people are you trying to message?! [/quote] I misread this... Thought there was a massage party that I wasn't invited to!

Andertons still showing as 31st. I'm still wondering if one will appear at my door in the next week. EDIT: But an email I got from them said 31st of May. Confused.

[quote name='ThePapabull' timestamp='1395266730' post='2400568'] Hi Woodyratm, gigs are inevitably loud ( but your point is good one) i can't exercise much control re volume. What does uncouple the cab mean….. I should explain I've only been playing bass for 2 years and am really a tenor/alto sax player at heart. (30 years) . I really enjoy practise and playing but this room is sending me around the BEND!!!! [/quote] Get it off the floor back in the day i used a beer crate thing. You might be getting boomyness from the floor. Also try and get out front if you can. Might be sounding pants next to you but amazing in the crowd. (im on my phone so havent seen your vid)

Are you using PA support? I'd consider turning down gigs dont need to be loud. That or boost mids, point cab at your head and/or uncouple the cab.

I'm really gutted

[quote name='TG Flatline' timestamp='1394810952' post='2395520'] The effects loop will be parallel, so you can add your sub in under distortion, modulation, delay - whatever you fancy really! Available now with custom etch, I've not got the artwork drawn up for this one yet but I've got three projects with T-65s on the go as we speak! I hope to have it on the website by the end of April ideally. [/quote] Oi back in the workshop you I might be joining this queue for the octave... But an LPF also sounds tasty... You bad man!

[quote name='Ou7shined' timestamp='1394799366' post='2395342'] Oh you big North Sea Tiger you. [/quote] Med actaully Welcome to go in place dude. Save the ticket being wasted! You could take the purple beastie with ya

[quote name='Left Foot' timestamp='1394730731' post='2394572'] I can't as I only have a connection at work and obviously the PORN title is blocked, any chance you could change it to PRON or something... I'd love to go and have a look... [/quote] Done There's not much in it just now!

I actually love reading about other peoples units! Get the pics on the COG Porn thread people!

Ping Osprey Guitars a shout too. Mines is a modern looking jazz. PM Ou7shined here

Got her back the other week and I'm in love... [attachment=157404:1656003_10152281830314066_441206074_n.jpg][attachment=157405:10009894_10152281830999066_2043474857_n.jpg]

I know you've just possibly ordered one, but if you're willing to drop >£1k on a bass, why not look at getting one built? One of my requirements of my purple beastie was it had to be pretty light. Not sure on weight atm - but it's insanely lightweight. No idea what Rich did but you don't even feel the weight really!

[quote name='Ou7shined' timestamp='1394589217' post='2393134'] Yep as far as I know [/quote] Sadly not anymore dude

And thanks to an issue completely outwith my control - I wont back in the UK till Tuesday. So much for my offshore trip being 2 nights offshore... I've PM'd Alan to say I won't be coming now so my weekend ticket should be up for grabs. Sucks.

I'm really worried that I'll not make it now Still offshore! If I do come my other halfs gonna venture down too (mate who was gonna join me, has pulled out).

Bought a Korg G5 from Goran. Great comms, great shipping and overall excellent to deal with. Would highly recommend.

Hello - I was getting wrist pain pretty badly a little while ago. Went to the doctor and was suspected of CTS too. I was told to wear a wrist support (the ones with the metal rod) whilst sleeping to try and keep my wrist in the correct angle. I also was advised to get an ergonomic mouse for work (I work in IT) - so now got a funcy joystick looking thing. Did the nerve tests and found no issues...Until the doctor asked what my hobbies were. I mentioned bass (whilst miming with my hands), to which he said "Hold up, do that again... is that where your right hand sits?" I agreed - quick test found I was somehow trapping the nerve whilst playing! Changed my technique slightly and strengthened my wrists with exercise. Not much pain or issue now! Still get the odd flare up but it's controllable. Hopefully the nerve testing reveals whats wrong

Yaldy!
