  1. Amazon have Behringer P2s on sale at £27 at the moment should anyone fancy any...
  2. Argh, sorry, the forum editor is driving me loopy. This is the post I was referring to - I assume there are better ways to kludge things together then?
  3. Hmm, that's odd, I could have sworn that there were people using this combo - see my next post - messed this one up....
  4. A quick heads up. Just poking around at the "cheapo" 5.8GHz solutions (i.e. Lekato + P2) - Amazon have a Joyo version of the Lekato which looks to be identical, and they have a £21 voucher off on them until 21st November - making them £84 rather than £105...
  5. 0.5mm alu sheet here - can't imagine that would weigh much for the area of the headstock https://www.smetals.co.uk/product/0-5mm-thick-1050-grade-aluminium-plate/ DIY swirl pattern video here - looks like he's just using a bit of a pan scrubber attached to a drill
  6. Kind of interesting - I was going to buy a body but they are quite compact, so not sure if they would work for a 34" scale neck... Bodies "Picked up in a warehouse clearance and confirmed by the previous owners that these were imported in the 70's for Dan Armstrong guitars prior to the company going under. Some of these are pre-drilled/routed and some are plain bodies. " https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/386809463556 Necks https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/387030022728 The seller has some other more guitar based bits and bobs as well....
  7. Like you, I have a Soundcraft (Ui24r), which as you say is browser based, so tablet/phone agnostic (so long as it is not totally ancient). However, the Behringers need an app to interact with it rather than via browser, so age and type of tablet is a little more important.
  8. ...and I still need to get the 8" drawings sorted for you!
  9. Ahhh, yes, they are the ones I have an eye on for a potential Grabber/tbird style build (thundergrab?)
  10. What pickups are you using?
  11. Crimson have some videos demonstrating how to do bursts with stains, and I'd imagine the principle is the same - you can always sand back it it doesn't look right. I would suggest having a play with some scrap wood.
  12. I believe Mike retired the Boudica shape for a while, but as Lemmywinks says, he has started using the shape again. That's an early one I think - the logo on the body suggests so anyway. @Cosmicrain - can you fill in any more info?
  13. Email winging its way to you with amended PDF.
  14. Stevie, just seen you mention another batten on the baffle - I can add that to the drawings. Do you want it to go full height from top right down to meet the horizontal batten? Looks to be around 160mm?
  15. Stevie, I can email you the PDF for the drawings, then you could perhaps edit your first post and add them to it? (Though maybe you can't do that with old posts... not sure....)
  16. This looks really interesting. I have a Dwarf on the way - as a super early bird adopter, I chose to be in the last tier for delivery, so got caught in the collapse.... haven't stumped up the extra to get it sooner as yet... However, with all these multi FX devices like the Dwarf and HX stomp, all I really want it is a way to be able to jump between a few set "sounds" - so an additional controller like this looks like just the job for gigging use. Watching with great interest!
  17. Behringer PM1 might be a better bet - £33 - so a few quid more than the SubZero thing, but will give you a volume control as well https://www.behringer.com/product.html?modelCode=P0BKB Note that this ISN'T a headphone amp (like the P2) - just a passive in line volume control - but it does the XLR to minijack conversion as per the adapter above, but also gives you volume control at your fingertips.
  18. I do have drum mics, and have been thinking of adding a kick mic to get a better kick sound from the recordings, but the EAD10 is sooooooo easy - and on a small stage space, the lack of extra mic stands is a real boon as well! The recordings are only for us to listen back to for reference as to how terribly we played. Here's an example recording - I have to admit I don't spend ages tweaking the mix or anything, just set the levels roughly in Reaper for the whole set, then export one track at a time. As you'll hear, the drum sound isn't brilliant - but I don't think we have explored the EAD10's capabilities that much yet - but it certainly works for being able to hear.

  19. That's nice!
  20. I was going to mention that (but hesitated due to the cost). Our drummer has one, and it works surprisingly well. I multitrack record our gigs via the mixer, and the only drum monitoring we have is the EAD10. We also use the feed from it through the PA to add a bit of oomph to the overall sound.
  21. I guess a certain cohort of people will (incorrectly) consider 15" drivers incapable of covering the whole frequency range, thus discarding them as a one cab solution.
  22. On Saturday we had a gig, and had run through Merry Xmas Everybody a couple of times "just in case". We got to the end of the second set, so I asked the audience who wanted a Christmas song - the resounding answer was "no" - so I told them they were getting a Christmas Number one hit anyway - and we launched into Killing In The Name (our usual closer) - which went down a treat. Had the reaction been more positive, we would have busked through the Slade song as well, but Killing acted as a good backstop
  23. I can see that looking good with black strings...
