  2. [quote name='Dingus' timestamp='1358518175' post='1940667'] I've just read this thread again . What do you think I'm missing . Have you read it ? [/quote] Fair enough - just that many have made the point that although he might not be a master technician he is a great musician not least because of his influence; he's not just where he is because he was lucky enough to be in some influential bands or is an interesting personality (which he certainly is). Not a great JD fan myself either, but can't deny his originality or influence. Hope you survive the hangover - mixing it were you?
  3. [quote name='Dingus' timestamp='1358516887' post='1940643'] No Pete , you are not missing something . Peter Hook is not a very accomplished bass player by any musical criteria . He is a bass guitar[i] personality [/i]far more than he is a bass guitar player . In most musical situations other than those he is immidiately familiar with he would be at a complete loss how to play the bass guitar , and I expect he would probably readily admit to that himself . He is only intrested in doing what he does , and what he does is very limited . If you're into that music then great , if not then I really can't see what he would have to offer , except maybe some business advice . [/quote] Have you read much of this thread ?
  4. [quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1358514253' post='1940577'] Remember that photos from Facebook don't always show for those of us who aren't Facebook members. [/quote] Does that make two of us?
  5. Apologies if this is an urban myth, but wasn't Mr Foxton's 'Rick' actually a Japanese copy?
  6. [quote name='lastnotleast' timestamp='1358511812' post='1940512'] I play through an Acoustic B200H with (2) B115's. I know Acoustic is not available in the UK since Guitar Center acquired it but bear with me. I would like to purchase a backup amp and, if it has more wattage and/or sounds better, move it to the primary role. I can pick up a used Behringer Ultrabass BX450H for $200.00 U.S. or less. I have two questions; 1. Is the Behringer poor quality? 2. Is 450W @ 4 Ohms too much for my B115's which are rated 250W @ 8Ohms? Thank you in advance for your kind consideration [/quote] 1. Cheaply built but probably OK 2. You should be OK. Turn down if it farts out.
  7. OK, that's enough New Boots And Panties -Ed.
  8. Wake Up And Make Love With Me cos I just been listening to it :-)
  9. [quote name='molan' timestamp='1358509570' post='1940444'] Maybe just try going to Daily Motion as a site & see if that works. If so you can search for New Order & Perfect & it should come up. [/quote] According to my f***ing annoying Nannywall, the whole site is pornography.
  10. [quote name='Shambo' timestamp='1358497973' post='1940123'] Q. How many musicians does it take to change a lightbulb? A. Ten. One to change the bulb and nine to stand around and mutter, "I could have done it better than that". [/quote] Q: What's the difference between a rock guitarist and a jazz guitarist? A: A rock guitarist plays 3 chords to 20000 people...
  11. [quote name='molan' timestamp='1358469416' post='1940010'] [url="http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xlccjb_new-order-the-perfect-kiss_music#.UPiZUaFQT1o"]http://www.dailymoti...ic#.UPiZUaFQT1o[/url] [/quote] What's the link? My Nanny Firewall blocks it as 'pornography'
  12. It's on Loot - was also on Gearslutz and Gumtree but has been pulled from them.
  13. [quote name='Low End Bee' timestamp='1358330212' post='1936948'] It'll never work...... [/quote] He's right. Guitar groups are on the way out.
  14. [quote name='51m0n' timestamp='1358342869' post='1937280'] Studiospares M1000s. [/quote] Cheers for that top tip. They get great online reviews too.
  15. [quote name='Lozz196' timestamp='1358259661' post='1935751'] When being heckled "You`ve not worked this out properly, you`re meant to be making me look a ****". [/quote] Or "I can't hear you, Pal - your mouth's full of sh*te" -John Cooper Clarke Sorry for thread derailment. I'll post something pithy from Frank Zappa in a minute
  16. They're definitely top quality. I too have an ebony fretless neck (with some sort of oily unfinished wood on the back, can't remember what it's called) that sings, just asks to be played. Also got a maple fretted Precision neck that's very nicely made but a bit deep for my taste - they offer a shallower one these days, wish I'd had that choice when I bought it. Solid as a rock though.
  17. [quote name='redstriper' timestamp='1358119800' post='1933593'] I have a kappalite 3015LF in a very small Flite cab and I like it very much. I play mainly reggae and soul music and I like a very deep bass tone. This driver sounds clear, deep and smooth, with more treble response than I expected. The non LF version might be more suitable if you like more upper mid and treble. I have no idea how they would sound in your cab though. I also had the kappalite 3015LF in an Ashdown cab and it sounded great there too. [/quote] plus the one - I use a 3015LF in a 120 litre box and it's superbly deep for reggae and soul. I don't care that it's got no top - I bi-amp into an 8" for that when I need it (for EUB).
  18. 'Why don't we mix (five very different 24-track songs on an analogue desk) Friday evening?'
  19. If anyone can do something with it, it's: http://myworld.ebay.co.uk/mdphillips1956?_trksid=p2047675.l2559
  20. [quote name='51m0n' timestamp='1357918879' post='1930627'] Bill Fitzmaurice recommends subs paired/ganged together in stage center, I cant remember ever seeing it done this way in practice for a live band, but it definitely gives you up to 6dB of extra oomph (with his subs) per pair, and removes/mitigates issues with the cancellayions you get from seperating the subs in the first place. [/quote] I saw a noted German industrial metal band at the NEC and they'd done this - flown full-trange speakers either side of the stage, and subs the whole width of the stage (roped together) between the front of the stage and the barriers. I could hardly breathe, it was most excellent.
