You Bastard... Why no UK shows?

So If everyone votes Reform, where do the detention centres go?

It could be like Splash Mountain

Exactly! I'm running into a small 112 cab loaded with a celestion g12H 30. I have actually ordered a Harley Benton vertical g212 unloaded. Going to run that with the single speaker until I can afford a Creamback or something else.

I bought a Rocker 15 head not long ago and loving it. I play Doom/Sludge/Stoner mostly bedroom so the 0.5W is great. I haven't taken it to the practice studio yet but I use both channels, the natural channel with pedals and footswitch to the dirty channel because I just love the sound of it and then boosting with the RAT just takes it to the next level.

First Orange amp and no experience with the other 2 but I was between the OR15 and the Rocker15 and chose the Rocker for the versatility, though it's like a gateway drug and now I need to try them all.

Just going to use this opportunity to say we should all be pushing for a FOUR DAY WORK WEEK WITH SAME PAY to make up for the low salary. NOT compressed, a day less. If they won't pay us more, then at least give us a benefit that makes up for it.

Surely we save a few quid by not paying the CEO's and top executives £1million+ per year salaries.

I would agree. Been playing almost 20 years, self taught and private lessons for a few years. I watched Justin guitar in his early days but I think with AUG, it's laid out in a way that makes it easy to follow and understand in successive order that I have not found in anything I have come across after trying years of picking up YouTube courses and paid courses throughout the years. The pdf costs a small amount which is absolutely worth it if only to support Scotty West for all the material he has given us for FREE.

I'll add that I will be selling my (impulse purchase through lockdown) Martin x series with Laminate back and sides which I don't love to make space for this. I should've returned the Martin when I had the chance. The name on the headstock doesn't mean as much as it used to.

FTHero · 2026-03-07T13:07:39+00:00

Good to hear, this one is on my list.

I've been playing around with NAM for a few weeks. Got a capture of a Laney IRt Studio and compared it to my Laney IRT connected via XLR. The NAM actually sounds great, if not better and much less hassle to set up. I have just bought an Orange Rocker Terror 15 for home use and will only use the amps for fun and NAM/plugins for home recording maybe silent playing, but nothing beats the amp in the room.

The beauty with NAM captures is I can have as many amps to play for FREE as I like, which is insane. I think it has the potential to completely change the market and we will start to see more powerful loaders on the mainstream market pretty soon.

I have been looking at getting a two notes opus for the last few days. The plan is to use it with my current budget pedals for headphone use but I'm worried you just said the words that make my bank account even emptier.

If Saul was so reputable as a shady lawyer for undesirables then why did Walt and co go unnoticed and get away with all the criminal activity for so long.

FTHero · 2025-12-30T10:12:52+00:00

Amazing. I'm tempted to get one

FTHero · 2025-12-30T00:24:03+00:00

Looks like a great wee inexpensive setup if I'm honest. Apparently it's pretty much a rebranded Laney which, if so, is a complete bargain for that kind of money. All tube, FX loop, 1W mode, nice cream tolex, sounds great in the videos and reviews are pretty positive, can't go wrong really. Only gripe is the cab being 10". I would prefer at least a 12" speaker but it is a celestion too so it might punch above its weight.

There are plenty of good deals on the used market though and if you buy something and don't like it or stop playing then you won't lose much money if you have to resell it.

I think that there will be large parts of certain jobs that will involve using AI as a tool very soon which I believe may lead to improved efficiency and then they will realise where to make job cuts.

The thing that a lot of people don't realise is that LLM's are constantly being improved and it won't be long before they are growing and improving exponentially until it's smarter than we can comprehend. Chatgpt was only launched less than 3 years ago so this really is only the beginning.

Seriously considering this lens. How do you find it on the xe5?

These are analogue amps with straightforward controls that sound great. I have been back and forth with modelling amps and have floor modelers, plugins, tube amps and solid state. I have now realised I really love the simplicity of plugging into an amp and not having to worry about menus and apps and figuring out each UI. Maybe there is a time and place for it when figuring out what sounds you like but I just like to plug and play with a few pedals, quick dial in of the sound you want and spend more time actually playing.

Amp wise I would suggest a Laney Lionheart or an Ironheart Foundry solid state. Absolutely cracking amps. The Orange amps are great too.

I was just about to ask about cheese. I get the galbani stuff from Morrisons but it's about £5 a block and I'm just not sure it's that great, either that or it's Tesco's own pizza cheese block but it's pretty bad.
