  1. Me too. Current count is 5, none of them are particularly prolific in rehearsing and gigging so I'm not madly busy but I'm covering rock, blues, pop, punk and kids music so can't complain. Enjoy them all @AndyTravis
  2. Lots of bands! Give them all a bit of time and see which one(s) have any staying power?
  3. As in the brand is also owned by G4M or or they sold the brand (to ANOther) and the UK stock to G4M? Sorry for a pedantic question but it may give us a clue to their future!
  4. Watched 5/6 of this tonight. Love it, really cool. Speaking of the various all-female punk bands, I used to be in a band with one of the Ramonas. I think she hated me for a long time because of the fact I quit that band 😅
  5. My wife works for an electronics components company. Their factories are currently operating on leadtimes between 4 months and 13. Yes, over a year on a lead time for a tiny little crystal for your digital circuit timing, worth $0.02. They are but a tiny part of the massive puzzle which @agedhorse has discussed above. It’s just one of those things right now, sadly.
  6. Marooochick Don’t get me wrong, they look wonderful, but there was a point in time where everyone seemed to be getting one
  7. Cheers It’s a Tourtech TTPB-4. I was in two minds between the Pedaltrain Classic Jr and the Warwick Rockboard 3.1 but this was cheaper than both and the reviews suggested it was just as good. I have to say I am hard pressed to tell the difference in quality between this and my (soon to be for sale 😅) Pedaltrain Metro16
  8. New board to accommodate the Barefaced Machinist I won in their recent Instagram competition 😎
  9. Interesting and tempting!

    Barefaced Machinist

    Yep the new little bag/case thing is great. Very well padded, really nice touch.

    Barefaced Machinist

    Just received my Machinist from Barefaced after winning their competition on Instagram. Can’t wait to fire it up later today when I’m free from meetings...
  12. Haha! I had a similar experience when I had the same revelation 🙃
  13. Oooh now you’re getting into fun stuff. Material grades and specs, pipe schedules, NDT specs and standards, welding requirements etc etc 🤓
  14. I really want to try a Fusion 550. One for my lottery-win purchasing
  15. Also worth reiterating (because you’d be surprised how many people do this...) a “standard” Jack-Jack guitar cable is NOT the same as a Jack-Jack speaker cable. Do not use an instrument cable for a speaker connection.
  16. Same story with me; in fact it was the exact same Recurve bass which took me on my journey. My first ACG Custom, a 33” Finn 5, was superb but as soon as I then got a 32” Finn 4 I realised I wanted a slightly shorter 5 too. I now have 4 ACGs of different flavours but they are all bang on what they were supposed to be, based upon my learnings from that first Recurve and Finn.
  17. Funnily enough, we’ve tried already and so far been met with “no” sadly. Maybe we need more of us asking... just saying 😃😎
  18. Not quite. Yes in so far as I want the power section (which that is) but no because I want to basically bastardise an ABM and OriginAL for parts and merge the two together into something with a smaller footprint. The main things stopping me are: 1. Lack of electronickery know how (I might have done a degree in the subject but that was 20 years ago and I haven’t touched it since!) 2. Cost for getting all the parts together 3. Er, that’s it 🤓
  19. Let me see.... No. No it isn’t 😁
  20. It’s bloody marvellous. Wasted on me (as are all my basses really) but I love it
  21. Albeit an MM/J config but you get the idea. I’ll get a pic of mine too, but it’s 32” scale
  22. Don’t forget @Cosmicrain and his Zoot Funkmeister
