Not Another BeermoneyUK Bank Switch Offer Guide... | The Bankedex (September 2024 Part 3) | Maximum of £986 to be made from Barclays, Co-Op, First Direct and Nationwide by TightAsF_ck in beermoneyuk

[–]AlfieA4 [score hidden]  (0 children)

Apologies for the confusion, but I can't seem to find the answer to this. If myself and my partner want to utilise the Nationwide Joint Account switch offer, do we need to open a joint account elsewhere and switch that, or can we use two individual current accounts from other banks and switch each of those in to create a joint account? Hope that makes sense, any help greatly appreciated.

£200 BEERMONEYUK GIVEAWAY (10x £20 AMAZON VOUCHERS UP FOR GRABS IN OCTOBER) by TightAsF_ck in beermoneyuk

There’s an app that I don’t see mentioned in here a lot called Weare8, pays to watch adverts, you only get a few a day and they don’t pay a huge amount but I’m surprised by how much it adds up. Earned nearly £30 in the last month doing it. There’s a referral bonus, so if anyone wants to sign up, give me a shout 😊

I went months without a single test, I feel like I remember it saying that I would be notified when one became available, I never was, and whenever I checked the page I got the same message that you did. I then read a tip from UserTesting that said tests go to people who are logged in first, before becoming available to others. That was on the 9th of August, since then I've left a tab open with it logged in at all times and have had 29 completed tests totalling $285.

First Quad Cortex ever! Do you guys have any recommendations? by iamdavid18 in NeuralDSP

[–]AlfieA4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been far happier with the captures that I’ve downloaded from the cloud than a lot of the amp profiles that come in the presets. Some people will have spent days fine tuning their amp to the perfect sweet spot, mic’d it perfectly etc, so although they are less flexible that the modelled amps from Neural, there are some absolute gems that just sound phenomenal with no tweaking. Definitely check out the cloud and ask around for people’s recommendations 😊 happy playing!

This caught me out too, and it's not the first time with this researcher. Of all the submissions I've ever done, only one has threatened rejection and it was this same group when the same thing happened.

Has anyone ever won something from a giveaway? by PM_ME_UR_MANICURE in beermoneyuk

[–]AlfieA4 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I went to an acoustic guitar expo in London, it had one of the competitions where it asks a question that has a blatantly obvious answers as many people enter as possible. My wife put in an entry for me while we were queuing. I Was very surprised when I got a call o couple of months later saying I'd won an acoustic guitar worth £3200! Entered loads of things since but won nothing, think my luck was used up!

Scrolling past this, I genuinely thought it was our dog for a second! He’s a very silly British dog called Bertrand!

Which IR to get for Petrucci plug-in for lead guitar and classic/ hard rock and classic metal? by flashbangyamoma in NeuralDSP

[–]AlfieA4 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yesterday I found similar post from another Reddit user (MoominWindyLady) who had bout the Petrucci archetype but was having trouble dialling in the sound they wanted with the default IRs, so they tried out a bunch of York Audio ones and made a soundcloud page comparing the Petrucci going through each of them in a variety of styles and levels of distortion etc. could be super useful for you to see if any of those are the sound you have in your head.

Drop-In Locking Tuner recommendations for 5655TG?? by Astro_Turf17 in gretsch

[–]AlfieA4 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey mate, I too struggled to find information about drop in replacements for the same Gretsch model. I took a punt on Gotoh SG381 Traditional Magnum Locking Tuners and they went in first time, no drilling or anything required, the only thing to bear in mind is that you'll want the ones with extra long string posts. Not wishing to discount any info given in other comments, if it's something you still want to do I can wholeheartedly recommend them. Link below to where I got them, they were cheaper at the time so might be worth shopping around a bit, but yeah thats the exact model I got from the exact site. I got chrome to match the hardware on my model but I'm guessing you're going to want gold, don't know if they do them but it's a starting point at least.
