  1. recent convert to steels, I like the clang (and if the song doesn't demand it just turn off the treble)
  2. soooo much great bass to be had for £200, again quite jealous of the fun you'll have finding the one.
  3. beautiful bass but can I mention that tape measure is mingin? GLWTS!
  4. wow same price as a Ray 4 but more like the full fat Ray so I believe, bargain price, less than half a new one GLWTS
  5. Noooooooooo! Its the one effect I can't emulate in our set!
  6. very true! But I thought they would be toys, they seem pretty decent, nice and bright...and for the price
  7. Just got 2 for £72, they seem pretty decent, quite a bit more chunky and heavy than I imagined 37630289-4226-46D8-A261-189CB138FC87.MOV
  8. No I love the tension, it's just right, great for vibrato and less strain on the fingers
  9. and..the countdown before this is gone begins...GLWTS
  10. wouldn't surprise me, behringer have really upped their act recently especially with the XAir series
  11. Just wow....that is all! ok perhaps I should add a bit to that. Gigged with them last night and I can't believe the difference it made to my sound. Superb clarity and zing (they are stainless steels after all), I could actually hear clearly what I was playing in my v loud rock trio. Lovely lovely growl from my Jazz (which I was beginning to worry I wasn't getting on with, it was just a string change!) The other thing was the tension on them is just perfect, a bit looser than Im used to and I absoloutely loved that. £25 a set from Amazon worldwide. I used to hate paying what I considered too much for strings and didn't believe it made a difference in the sound, well, I've been proved wrong, strings make a huge difference, I just hope they last.
  12. Look Ye no further..RCF...4 XLR inputs, effects £135 https://www.djanddiscostuff.com/sound-c16/mixing-desks-c17/passive-c79/l-pad-8cx-8-channel-mixing-console-with-effects-p4159/s4364?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_term=rcf-professional-audio-l-pad-8cx-8-channel-mixing-console-with-effect&utm_campaign=product%2Blisting%2Bads&gclid=CjwKCAjw-4_mBRBuEiwA5xnFIFsktNohoOMFf9pTGZhvV9a3-R5r0W-42VEaDw32--WbV5RIPbs_RRoCYNsQAvD_BwE
  13. Im gigging an old peavey TNT 130 tonight in a medium sized pub, used it last week as well, seriously loud, holds up against a marshall 100W and 410, cost me £90 including fitting castors and handles, weighs as much as a small planet, but its easier to travel with than my Ampeg stack. If you're on a budget you can't go wrong with these, they're bombproof. something like this https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Peavey-TNT150-amplifier-1-x-15-speaker-Bass-combo-amp-150W-4ohms/123742934839?hash=item1ccfa75737:g:TncAAOSwN0hcvNdm
  14. I left some old strings overnight in a container with some isopropyl alcohol, wow what a difference, like new again, but I don't know for how long.
  15. I don't think I've ever seen a genuine bass from the 60's or 70's with the patina of years on the road that looks as bashed up as a heavy relic, they appear to me at least as fake as an ERG politicians promise. I couldn't bring myself to go for a light relic either, feels a bit like a personalised number plate on a Ford Mondeo, but each to their own..
  16. just over £300 too, seems a good price.
