could be, but I had a Markbass Compressore before I spilt a pint on it, that didn't really seem to do much either (especially after the spill!), Im not sure if they're all a bit Emperors New Clothes, especially down the Dog n Duck, not in the studio for sure..

Had a gig last week and the volume kept coming and going, weird. Anyway found out the culprit was a Boss LMB3 so took it out of the chain, instantly more clear and defined sound, easier to control the dynamics with my fingers (Duh), its going in the bin, never really understood what it did TBH, less obstruction in the signal chain the better sez I, that is all!

cos its a sh!!ty 310 ART Mk 1 and doesn't have the b@lls to make itself heard, unlike the guitarist who has a nice shiny 312 Mk4, I know I could get a 312 but I still fancy a small combo as well, happy to buy used BTW

used - £300 , I want to keep my Ampeg, I'm not really looking at super high end stuff, its just for the odd gig where space is tight (probably about 20% of all our pub gigs, so approx 8 gigs a year paying out £80 a man)

So I used a Hartke tilted combo at last nights gig, as well as DI'd to the PA, think the Hartke was 150W? Anyway the sound was surprisingly good, and clear. Normally Im an SVT-CL & 410 guy but its overkill for the dog and duck most days ( and a real pain to lug about, the honeymoon is wearing thin). It got me to hankering after a small, and most importantly, Lightweight combo, preferably minimum 250/300 Watt. Digital, class D is fine ( I use a DHA tube pre anyway). Tilted would be great but I could use a stand, the most important factor would be lightweight. I can't quite bring myself to buy something with an Aluminium cone (ie the Hartke), anyone use something, small, punchy, powerful & light? I'd be mixing it with a DI to to the PA and RCF wedge monitoring as well. Any suggestions most welcome

who cares? Check out the Adidas!

because the lead is bent over where the straplock is so it doesn't come out, see the video above, thats exactly it!

put your bass on, and push the lead through between the bass and the strap at the back of the bass and plug in, thats it.

used the 935 in anger last week at a particularly boisterous gig and it performed brilliantly, the vocals are a whole level higher than the AKG D5's (and they're pretty good). The actual volume levels are much higher and the crispness and clarity was astonishing, very impressed..

hmmm sounds a bit flakey but not a scam, giving someone your acc no and sort code isn't that unusual, Id be inclined to accept the £20 deposit and give him a few days to get sorted but as fleabag says be careful when meeting up one to one, but its a bit of a faff for a mugging TBH

thats lovely...and a relief!

seems a tad pricey, i picked one up in mansons for £180

Chaotic Gig tonight, there's a jazz festival on this weekend in Teignmouth so the place was rammed with Rock fans, all great but the smell of weed was overpowering and I got 4 punters at some point or other during the set falling ar$e over t!t into my gear, mic stand went flying, monitor got disconnected, drinks everywhere ffs, really rattled me tonight, I don't usually mind the odd one but this was ridiculous, great atmosphere but on edge

team player!

Hmmmmm, ok so Im going out on a bit of a limb here..but.. having gigged a Ray5, a Fender Custom shop Jazz and a 75 fender P. the P cuts through the mix despite weighing the most and the chunkiest neck, its my to go to gigging axe

Thank god Im washing my hair at the moment..

yep, all non starters for me, Id be looking for something more like "busy gigging rock covers band with 30 plus gigs booked for next year seek 50+ bass player to join, own gear and transport essential, no egos required!

my favourite James gang Track, love a bit of Walshy!

My (16) lad turned me on to this, and like whooa! what an absoloute stunner, read the lyrics if you can, they are pure poetry. And they say modern music is rubbish, God Im old.
