  1. Oh this on top of my obc112’s…phwoar
  2. Another rehearsal with “Just Bodies” seems like we’ve settled the tempo debates… apparently booked in to record 5 tracks on 26th April 😆 Meant to be rehearsing with “Fiasco Jam” on Saturday for the first time since January. That’ll be weird.
  3. Now then… I might use that for recording the album…
  4. Where’s the fun in that 😆 I WANT A NEW AMP 😉
  5. I had both… I still have the 414.
  6. Another pedal I took from my guitarist - it’s mega, but I just don’t have a use for it. Boxed, very clean - has been on a pedalboard so has Velcro on the bottom which can come off. £105 posted in UK £100 collected from me in Manchester
  7. Bought from my guitarist in a fit of “I have to own it” - but the reality is, I bought it from him when he bought the bigger version so it’s too much when we’re playing together and with a really great keys player in the band who’s started using vintage synths as well as a stage piano - I’ve no use for it. It’s been on a pedalboard so has Velcro attached, but will come off. it’s boxed, manuals etc. £125 posted in the UK. £120 Collected from me in Manchester

  8. Ah what a miserable old git I’m becoming. it was nice to be out of the comfort zone, and in retrospect a bit of fun which people seemed to enjoy. I need to stop taking myself so seriously.
  9. I knew @Dood was the answer; it always is.
  10. I’m at a point where I’m looking at rigs - I love my orange OBC112’s - but they’ve no Horn and now I’ve got 2 bands on the go, one really needs that tweeter “click”. Has anyone got experience of the Digbeth gear? I see the 500w heads kicking about at £250 ish and they intrigue me. but also the cabs… will they do slappy stuff as well as indie/rock… I’ve been using Ashdown ABM cabs with rootmaster heads at one rehearsal space - and all the cabs at the room a knackered but having used RM heads before, I know they’re pretty capable. not sure what to do - I’m in a position where I’ll have to sell current rig to buy another…
  11. Needs the binding replacing - this is still a good price. i miss my marathon
  12. Hmm. i just sang and played guitar as a favour to a friend. Strangled a few indie classics and then came home. PA was woeful, couldn’t hear anything…people sang along and danced. I won’t be doing that again for a bit as I hate guitar playing, and I hate singing.
  13. Played @MachinesD-Roc at the weekend… This is now a very tempting bass.
  14. Was nearly 7 when you played that black Ripper 😂
  15. There was a point where if we matched another retailer on a Gibson Les Paul standard, we would’ve lost £100 ish. Now think how long you work with a customer who’s looking at spending £1600-£2k (quite a lot of the time people want talking through options and making sure it’s ‘right’) That was pre “Gibson Europe” and Rossetti (Former UK distributor) used to run all sorts of weird and wacky buy 4 get one free type bundles - so nobody ever paid the same prices…it was mental. But yeah, Fender, Yamaha and anything to do with recording - that was 5-15% margin. I think we got up to 22% on fender, then they got done for price fixing 😏 The whole thing about “what’s your best price” and “how much for cash?” Just used to drive us mad - “Chuck us in a strap, some strings…you’ve got a deal; I’m spending £1500…sweeten the deal” - we would always be scraping through on next to nothing to remain competitive. Its trying to have unique stuff that people actually want…we tried G&L as an alternative to Fender; we’d sell 30 fenders to 1 G&L…by which point, they’d been discontinued in a sale and we’d make as little as we did on the fender. Same with Tokai when we couldn’t make on Epiphone/Gibson.
