We’re doing drums and vocals, and a video at 10am today… we have 3 hours as the drummer is going on a Christmas Holiday and it’s my mums 66th birthday today 🤣 Probably should’ve had this done by now. ah well.

My ripper came with a hipshot. I put the original back on after about a day. Just looked wrong.

Ordered the Grover tuners today. Then it’s done. opened an envelope from my in laws today which had £50 in it, Thomann have the 142c’s in for £61 so just got them paid for

Babicz arrived and was fitted. Lovely these bridges.

Yeah - I said I wanted it to feel like market square Christmas brass band - it definitely captures that. Its also got a bit a Pogues FTONY vibe Just sorted the lyrics.

We are a bit late to the party… But did the first takes today.

I wuz only joking…sell it 😏 Nah, you’ll love this thing with a bit more hugs and kisses - it’ll be perfect

Oooohhhh it’s a biggun…

I’ve fixed the old one! used a brand new memory card and got some contact cleaner under the switches… Basically good as new! well, I need to get some superglue into the casing crack…but that’s easily done

If I can find an “as new” h4n I’ll be pushing for that - I still can’t understand why what look like the same mic capsules cannot cope with the same SPL. We rehearse in our own space with settings marked at the same volumes - Drummer uses a Roland TD50kv for rehearsal to keep volume down… But it’s almost like it tries to record at near peak input sensitivity and then tries to backtrack with internal software - which isn’t up to the job. would love to get the old one fixed…but it’s properly had its day.

Agreed - swapped a broken Epiphone LP I had in the loft for a celebrity bass a few months ago. Looks properly sleek. Great design - sounds alright too.
