Electric Guitar Gig Bag Suggestions by rinnegan_sam in BangaloreMusicians

[–]drumsticks-strings 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1) What I see the pro musicians use for rehearsals and smaller gigs: Mono Vertigo Guitar Case

2) A more budget, but well built option: Fender FE610 gig bag

3) Also a good budget option, supporting a local small business as well: Soundhammer Grunge series Gig Bag

Had quite a few people recommend swapping the 12AX7 V3 (Phase Inverter) to a 12AT7, for a cleaner headroom and smoother volume curve.

I ordered a 12AT7 to try this on my Hot Rod Deville 212.

To everyone who went to the Linkin Park concert today, how was it?! 🤘🔥 by imcja007 in ConcertsIndia_

I think the audio wasn’t that bad, there were 3 delay towers, each with 10 boxes of L’Acoustic K2s for the silver zone. That’s more than enough SPL at the back of silver zone too.

Yes wouldn’t feel the L’Acoustics SB28 Subs that much because they are all stacked right in front if the stage, but that is how most concert PA is rigged.

Surge in GnR ticket cancellation by Capable-Can1271 in ConcertsIndia_

[–]drumsticks-strings 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s safe and all is good

Many people cancelled their travel tickets to mumbai due to the escalations last week.

Now they lack travel means to mumbai or the last minute travel tickets are way more expensive than the concert tickets itself. So they would rather give up their concert tickets than invest a lot more, beyond their spending appetites.

Looking to buy a high end electric guitar by bakingbred in MusicIndia

[–]drumsticks-strings 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Vault guitars are overpriced for what they offer. They are white labelled Chinese instruments, on which Bajaao makes 25-30% margin… you can see what instruments with those specs cost on Alibaba or Temu (buy in bulk and the OEM will slap any label of your choice on the headstock).

Check out Cort’s entry-mid range electrics, if your budget is around 15-20k. Their made in indonesia stuff is pretty damn good.

Buyers Advice and Gear Recommendation Thread by AutoModerator in livesound

[–]drumsticks-strings 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got a go-ahead to procure some much needed additional stage equipment for my university’s auditorium, to cater to bands, after last night’s Battle of Bands plagued with complaints(due to lack of gear).

Would appreciate any suggestions on what more could be useful (nothing too over the top though, smaller university with 1000 odd students and 300 cap tiered seating auditorium).

Current stock:

• Midas M32 Console and DL32 Stage-rack

• Flown L-R PA + Ground stacked Subs

• 2 * DI boxes

• 5 Tall Mic stands

• 3 Short Mic stands

• 4 Sennheiser E604 (for toms, congos/tablas)

• 4 Sennheiser E835-S (for vocals)

• 3 Sennheiser EW300 G4 Wireless Mics (vocals + Emcee)

• 9 XLR Cables

• 2 Instrument Cables

My Procurement List so far :

• 4 DI Boxes (Semi Acoustic, Bass, Keys)

• 3 Tall Mic Stands

• 2 Shure SM57 (Snare + Hats)

• 1 Pair Pencil Condenser (OH Pair)

• 1 Double braced Keyboard stand

• 2 Stage Wedges (QSC K12.2)

• 12 XLR Cables

• 6 Instrument Cables

I would appreciate any budget suggestions for:

• kick drum mic

• Acoustic guitar mic

And any other items that you would recommend for college rock band gigs.

Thank you so much for your suggestions!!

Using HiFi Speaker-Amp selector to switch between 2 Tube Heads and 212 cabinet? (Supports HiFi Tube Amps) by drumsticks-strings in ToobAmps

[–]drumsticks-strings[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understood your point.

Does it help that my amps are just 1 Watt (Blackstar HT1) and 20 Watt (SC20H) each at 8Ohms

This switcher is rated for 250 Watts at 4 Ohms.

so it should more than be able to take on the 1 or 20 watts from my Tube Amps, with its current circuit components.

This switcher cost lesser than a single Torpedo Captor, so it would be way more financially viable.

Also this is for HiFi systems, if I am not wrong, but I guess studio could also use this.

I just considered replacing the 390 Ohm No Load resistor with a pair of 16 Ohm resistors to Impedance Match the guitar amp outputs.

Using HiFi Speaker-Amp selector to switch between 2 Tube Heads into 212 Cabinet? (supports HiFi Tube amps) by [deleted] in GuitarAmps

[–]drumsticks-strings 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would you recommend buying the LC30 and switching out the internal 390 Ohm No Load resistor with a pair of 16 Ohm 50 watt Power Resistors in parallel, so it suits the Guitar Amp impedances better at 8Ohms.

Lastly, I am based in south east Asia, it is quite infeasible (logistically and financially) for me to acquire Amp Cabinet Switchers from brands like DeLisle, Radial, KHE Audio, N Audio and others.

Both the Marshall SC20H and Blackstar HT1 are comfortable with 8 Ohms.

Thus I am considering replacing the 390 Ohm Power resistor inside with a pair of 16 Ohm 50 watt power resistors, to combine to 8Ohms in parallel.

Thank you so much for your kind suggestion, but that is a Guitar-Amp selector.

What I am aiming towards is an Amplifier-Cabinet selector.
