Is it lined? I have a non-lined fretless and find I can tolerate fairly out of tune strings without a problem so long as I don't play the open note!

Managed to use a pick and the fuzz pedal this morning on Our God 🤘. Sadly we didn't have an electric guitar today but I tried to make up for it!

...or the tank like build quality... The new Trace amps are really Peavey, a company who I may never trust after this which possibly explains the title to this thread (a lost art!):

So I'm guessing the idea is to download songs in ChordPro format from SongSelect, and then add into your JustChords database? Are you able to increase the font size, scroll using a bluetooth footswitch, change keys on the fly (or at least relatively easily) and annotate?

Does JustChords link into SongSelect?

On Sunday I was the only person in the band without a tablet/phone for the music, albeit the singers were just using simple pdfs on their phones. The guitarist suggested I should think about getting "OnSong" (I have an ipad), so I was just wondering whether anyone here have used this and what they think about it?

Given the topic title I thought this belonged here as well as it is what I thought when I watched this - some people are just born to play!

..coz it's called an amp "head" not "tummy" (and you don't have to bend down to adjust things).

Should add that one of these and direct into the PA works pretty well!

This ⬆️ It's stupid threatening legal action for recording/playing a song you wrote. So long as you have proof you wrote it, just wait for any hint that they are making money from it and then claim the royalties without having to worry about recording or playing it yourself!

Ta-da!!

Was this the amp in Blackburn that was on Gumtree for £120 - if it was you got a good deal as I would have had that if it wasn't for the fuel costing more to get it! RE a matching 4x10, should be able to find one for under £100. There are a bunch of very optimistic people trying to sell them for crazy amounts, but if you look at the other thread you will see I have found plenty similar cabs for under £100 (I think I've picked up two 4x10s in the last year for £90, one with a head as well). Worse case scenario is to buy a couple broken ones and combine the speakers.

I'm going to be left field, and say amp wise I don't think it really matters what you use for an "acoustic" sound as almost anything can be turned down. Indeed I often think that bigger cabs work better at lower volumes as you get better sound dispersal. BUT when I played in an acoustic group for a couple years, and on occasion sit in for acoustic gigs now, I always use a fretless as I think it gives a much softer and less aggressive sound. So I would say the bass you use matters more than the amp.

Not lost to some of us - see the thread below! I think I saw this amp but it was too far away to get, and I am just in the process of getting another GP12SMX up and running again with some new capcitors which would give me essentially the same combo! I have to agree these amps are second to none if you like sound - I currently have nine TE cabs and 3 heads because I can't help myself when they come up so cheaply!!

Just goes to show that with genes and environment on your side anything is possible! Also growing up with all that awesome kit available in your own home - a far cry from the Hohner instruments into my stereo that I started with!

Lets just say that when I jam with my kids it doesn't quite sound like this:

She's got a bit of an advantage to the rest of the world given her dad is Hovak Alaverdyan who is in the band Octavision with Victor Wooten on bass!

I'm guessing the cheaper ones are veneer caps?

No - it's the expensive ones as well! Funnily enough I bought myself a milestone guitar a few years back (PRS CU24) without really thinking much about the top, but the longer I've had it, while it plays beautifully, I'm just getting more and more triggered by this issue. The question is do I care about this enough to move on something I saved a very long time for?

If we are talking about finishes, and maybe this is more of a guitar issue, but mismatched tops really get to me. While I understand it is difficult to predict how the stain will take surely it's possible to do better given the price of these things? PRS & Gibson seem to be the main transgressors:

Get someone in the states to buy it and send to you? At £3.10 plus probably about £10 postage it isn't a massive risk...

....sounds like a lot of people's marriages as well 🙂! Mind you it's easier to get a long with people when there is a common task - I get on fine with my cricket team during the cricket season, but avoid them in the off season!!

Yeah - sorry - but given the OP expanded to include IEM I thought the thread was fair game!
