  2. [quote name='gazzatriumph' timestamp='1488732158' post='3251364'] I've given up on bands now and play for my own enjoyment, I dont know what other people think but in my experience there always seemed to be one person in the bands I've been in that ends up pissing me and most the others off. I take so much and then walk, always got on well with the other band members. Also sick of playing in classic rock bands churning out the same old boring numbers but it seems that's what pays. So unless an opportunity to join a post punk/80's alternative band, my kind of music, which is unlikely, I'm going to carry on playing with myself [/quote] I compromise with any difficult member if it gets the job done in the end, ie a paid gig, cant see the point of playing bass unless its in a band context, a bit like playing solo drums, whats the point?
  3. [quote name='Grangur' timestamp='1488657546' post='3250896'] Yep, that. I guess it's those inconsiderate workers in the UK factory that want to earn cash money! And they want to eat! And live in brick houses! I guess you could resort to making your own if you think you can do it cheaper. [/quote] is you is or is you aint got caaaash moneeee!!!??
  4. or these, good strings at good value [url="http://www.stringsdirect.co.uk/strings-c1/bass-guitar-strings-sets-c34/legacy-legacy-legacy-4-string-nickel-roundwound-45-105-long-scale-bass-guitar-strings-3-pack-p10254"]http://www.stringsdi...s-3-pack-p10254[/url] and Ive gigged these suckers, no complaints https://www.thomann.de/gb/harley_benton_valuestrings_bassguitar_medium.htm
  5. [quote name='NancyJohnson' timestamp='1488533467' post='3249677'] I've just been looking through Google for images! The SVT logo on the fascia was italicised and coloured; it had a red V in the middle of SVT; it looked like the one below, although I don't recall there being Ultra Hi/Lo buttons on it and I thought there was a knob marked as being 'presence' (although looking at the plethora of online images, I guess there probably wasn't). The standby and power switches, while similar, were a bit bigger/squarer. Rightly or wrongly, I went into the 0db input. I had about five minutes to try and get an agreeable tone and found it very difficult to dial up anything decent; my regular signal chain is fairly simple, Sansamp RBI into a power amp...I just thought the Ampeg would replicate this easily. No growl, no dirt, nada. It almost sounded like I was playing with flats. [/quote] wow, its still got all its knobs on!
  6. Just took delivery of a combo off Mick. He couldn't have been more helpful and friendly, buy with utmost confidence!

  8. I'll not comment on the video of your band as its not my place to express an opinion good or bad but if you're getting terrible numbers coming to see you Im afraid that says more about the bands appeal than anything else. As Big RedX says theres a healthy Goth scene across Europe and you should be in a self sustaining band at the very least. The idea of driving 350km for a possible 5 people seems completely pointless. Also I would never allow myself to be the "outside" member of any band whose view counted for nothing, but thats just me. So, in my opinion you would be wise to move on to something more fulfilling and proactive, if, after 2 years the lead singer questions your commitment, thats time to split.
  9. i think if you did it via payapal (but not as a gift or friends and family tranaction as that voids any protection) you would probably be ok, however I personally would only collect an item near to me and rather wait for the opportunity to come up nearer to home, that said, Ive had no problem doing business on this forum in a way I wouldn't elsewhere!
  10. ah mate, been after one of these for months to leave at rehersals! Bit far unfortunately!
  11. [quote name='Cosmo Valdemar' timestamp='1487872350' post='3243803'] It's already been blocked! [/quote] works for me
  12. yep half mine fallen off, they're sh*te!
  13. origional 62 P or Jazz, end of...or maybe a 66 slab, or a 79 Ray...or...or...or
  14. I didn't believe anyone would list a "base" item, then i saw this! http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Orange-AD-200-Base-Amp-Mk3-With-Cover-/132090251710?hash=item1ec13149be:g:hvEAAOSw9GhYmx-J
  15. Love Paul Rogers but £70 a ticket, no thanks.
  16. 24 this year, hopefully a few more but twice a month is all this weekend warrior gets away with these days, and as Im the only one who sorts out getting the gigs, I've done my bit, its up to the other lazy gits to pull their finger out.
  17. would love to catch the Glennmeisters new syrup but its a bit far for me (Bristol)
  18. [quote name='Dan Dare' timestamp='1484593104' post='3216650'] Would depend on the crowd. Osmonds covers for bikers, Megadeth for the local old peoples' home and so on... [/quote] errmmm. played crazy horses at a bikers clubhouse, wasn't lynched...
  19. Yeah This time around is an unexpected treat https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wYp5IcjvQRA
  20. Hate to be the party pooper but didn't the original cavern shut down years ago and this one is just a tourist attraction?
  21. What a great great idea using the Zoom headphones out. Never thought of that and Ive got IEM's just sitting in my guitar case! Ive got an AC moulded earplug at -15DB but I just dont get on with them and everything sounds muffled to me (although I put them in later in the rehersal rather than at the beginning which may be the problem) so will try the "zoom soloution" - Thanks!
