Wonder how loud the 50 will go and how many rock guitars it could cut through and how it would fair in pub rock. Imagine releasing a product and not having a video ready! [/quote] lol that won't cut the mootard against a marshall stack!

wow, check out Alright Now at the end!

I'd rather kiss a tramps arse.

[quote name='Billy Apple' timestamp='1441882646' post='2862526'] New Model Army gigs used to have a rep of being violent, but the truth was is was a load of blokes in clogs and tatts doing the goth chicken dance and all very friendly. I was chatting to a girl once who when I told her I was a big NMA fan she decried that the lead singer was a psycho who had booted her brother in the face with his clog and he lost a tooth. That didn't sound like the singer I knew and asked why? Oh, he spat on him she replied. well, duh! [/quote] Justins a quaker! He wouldnt do that!

got an old 80.s Pearl Phaser, rarely use it but it does sound good, a pig with a seperate power supply though http://tonereport.com/blogs/lifestyle/10-vastly-underrated-and-not-currently-made-cheap-pedals/page/two

one rig to bind them.....

no vinyl past 82' in this house! Actually thats not true, got some dodgy stuff of the wifes but the production is awful. Best vinyl to my (one good) ear came out in the 70's (current favourite being "Aja" by Steeley Dan - for production at least)

I reckon thats good value, i was looking at those today, really fancy one, espsh a US model.

[quote name='kevvo66' timestamp='1441557930' post='2859802'] Hiya Roland rock , just a smidgen on the strings little sharper so not really a tone [/quote] thats a new one on me, hows that work? (sorry, not a criticism just curious?)

Depends on how busy you are and how badly you need the gig IMO

Deffo get a 4 ohm cab, I got the Ampeg 410 HLF, some say 8 ohms is ok but as said before the head won't like it. As a really good bit of advice, don't go for a far east head, stick to a USA built one

[quote name='ubit' timestamp='1440180844' post='2848953'] Ok, I couldn't give a toss anyway [/quote] Pfft that's helpful. It's a great site if you live in the southwest and play covers We've had loads of gigs from it mainly through it telling you which venues host the most live music every week so you can chase them for gigs, it also works well as a gig diary and for hosting pics, mp 3's, videos and even allows you to email posters to the venues after sending you reminders, as said before its paid for itself over and over

yep our guitarist used to purely play his strat, now he's gone and got a goldtop Les P, sounds huge but it really does tread all over the lower notes, to the point where Im playing up the dusty end!

know a guy near exeter, but thats a bit of a hike! sorry can't be more helpful.

Brilliant, thanks!+

I sh*t em!

so....I have found when i remove the copper strip from the bridge the buzzing disappears completeley! What the hells going on? Daft qusetion but is it safe to remove the copper strip completely?

There's a thin copper strip running from the bridge to underneath the bridge pickup, could something have come loose there perhaps? Will investigate!

[quote name='rmorris' timestamp='1439309874' post='2841792'] Check continuity between strings / bridge / sleeve of output jack / lead. No continuity will cause buzzing when you touch the strings / metalwork as you are acting as an antennae for interference. To confirm this touch the strings (causing the buzzing) then with your other hand touch some metalwork you know should be connected to ground / earth eg metal barrel of a jack plug going into an amp / screw on rack unit / Copper water pipe etc and the buzzing should go away. (You are keeping yourself at a fixed potential and so now not acting as an antennae). [/quote] Yes done that and you're right, the buzzing decreases noticbly, so whats the problem? Any idea?

[quote name='Beedster' timestamp='1439288673' post='2841508'] No, if we'd been comedians you would have received a hail of "well don't touch them then" responses [/quote] funny that, thats exactly what my drummer is always telling me...

Im still mulling over getting his "banjo" out at the dinner table.............

with good eyesight!
