  1. Shep, the midi in on the Slicer, I'm assuming the tempo can be controlled via laptop into that? Does it then quantise any tapped devisions to sit within the Midi-controlled tempo? Also (Shep isn't allowed to comment), I've ordered a yummy pedal today, now just need to clear space on the pedal board, i'll only be on Board V.4....so still catching Shep up Si
  2. Was gonna start a thread, but searched this one. I'm going to this on 19th....two dates now?!, anyone else going on the Saturday? Si
  3. Keep them in their (hard) cases, micro-climates ftw Si

    [quote name='wally8' timestamp='1320943998' post='1433576'] Someone always has to come in a say "the fans always want the same album and thats boring etc". That's cack. Who wants the same album churned out over and over again? No-one. Ghost reveries is completly different to Watershed - totally different drumming style (i.e new drummer), softer songs and completely different guitar solo's (i.e a new guitarist). [/quote] I was talking very broadly, in that the two albums are definitely by the same band you know, there's no vast deviation between the two at all. I'd say drumming and guitar solo styles is quite specific, it doesn't affect song structure or the vocal. Again, I've not heard the new album, but I suspect they just wanted to throw a complete curve ball, grow and evolve their sound as they, as people, have no doubt grown. Bear in mind that they have done the acoustic album as well, so they are prone to more chilled moments. Who knows, maybe the next album will be all screaming Si

    Arrogant? Thats the last thing I would have described them as?! I remember reading an interview where they were perfectly happy stating that all their fans were geeky boys playing games workshop (or soimething to that effect), they've always come across as very good humoured to me!?. I've not heard the new album, but its always the case that when a band tries to evolve themselves to keep themselves interested in music, the fans will say "oh we want the same album again". Lets face it, Ghost Reveries and Watershed are pretty similar...although I love both. They were always gonna change it up. Saw them on the GR tour and thought they were stunning live Si
  6. I'll have a stock list too please Although I'll probably pop in on Saturday as I'm back that way, anyone else down on 12/11/11? Si
  7. Yus I should think I'll be going, enjoyed this years! Si
  8. Looks like a lovely bass! Good luck with the sale either way Si
  9. [quote name='birdy' timestamp='1320328684' post='1425366'] Why don't you buy it and paint it after [/quote] I'll let someone else throw 2.5k down the toilet thanks Si
  10. This is typical isn't it. There's me looking for an early 60's (although money dictates a refin), and this pops up around 5miles from where I live. Si
  11. My personal opinion on the Boss ODB3 is that its not great, I really didn't hear any nice low end distorsion/grind, its all mid/high fizz. I've had a much much better time with the Boss Mega Distortion, £30 off ebay, perfect for the amount I use it in my covers band. For my 'proper' gated fuzz sounds in the dubstep band I'm using a CoPilot FX Orbit I'll try and do some vids perhaps Si
  12. Hi Nick, I run my ME-50B from a brick no problem: [url="http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/827/29596510150320827857091.jpg/"][/url] The Juicy Lucy does put out 12v per output (5 of them), but each pedal steps it down to 9v anyway. Si
  13. Think I'll be popping along, probably even about in the evening for a drink too....but at the least, a coffee Mike Si
  14. [quote name='TheGreek' timestamp='1319545839' post='1415500'] No disrespect meant but if they want keyboards played why don't they employ a keyboard player?? - are they going to get horn players to play a synth that sounds like horns?? They devalue your talents as a bassplayer by asking you to play something else!! [/quote] Couldn't dis-agree more. It's just a sound, if you can't get a bass sound from guitar/effects, you might look to create that low-end from something more programmed. I play some bass-orientated keyboards in my dubstep band, although it's about 80% bass guitar. I don't think of myself as bass guitarist, more that I'm in charge of the low end...however that may come. Si
  15. I think it's crazy you've held on this long tbh. Get a refund and look elsewhere. If you really want a Stingray, go second hand or look at existing shop stock. Simples Si
  16. [quote name='pantherairsoft' timestamp='1319361280' post='1412957'] Lol. Chris!? Are you my mum!! Lol.[/quote] Well you've been very naughty, obviously. Actually doesn't look as big as I thought it was gonna be haha. Looking forward to seeing it all plugged in Si
  17. Chris can you sort your life out and get a pic up please Si
  18. I've played through this cab and it's fantastic. Obviously you can deal with Jack with the upmost of confidence!! Si
  19. Oh man.....if only it wasn't headless! Good luck! Si
  20. From what I remember these Bass Collection are Active/Passive, thats what the switch does, used to run mine just in passive all the time Si
  21. Only a few bits, but might take something off the price : EHX Silver Big Muff (American) Boss ODB-3 Guyatone BB-3 (Big Bottom) Ummm, will have a think on other things Si
  22. Looking for any trades at all? Si
  23. Very nice I had two of these a few years ago, 5 strings, but same model. Really great basses !! Si
  24. I have a Mega Distortion that I use on bass, soooooo much better than the ODB-3!! Si
  25. Keep it civil please guys.....don't wanna lock the thread before we see the conclusion huh Si
