If you have a little more to spend R&B have a good range of budget acoustics and electro-acoustics

And funnily enough Bruce Millers also have a range of cheaper acoustics

There is a cool Westfield reduced from 139.00 to 99.00

True theres rarely anything below 99.00

But you have to pay for quality!!

I hear the after sales service on musical instruments in Argos is excellent!

SHITE I PUT WED 5TH ON THE EUAN POSTER!

I MADE 3 OF THEM

Your main problem is

YOU OWN A MARSHAL AMP!

They tend to brake down without warning

Then dont fix right

Buy a Peavey or a Laney or if your flush an AMPEG A real workhorse amp

Stick your marshal on EBAY and get a trustworthy amp

MARSHAL thrive on the fact that people see rock stars using them

But rock star stuff is handmade in England but the stuff you buy in the shops is cheesy mass-produced units churned out in Korea or India or something

But it must be cool its marshal.

you'v found out the hard way my freind

were playing the same fudge thing next Thur c u there

Interesting fact from the OX

Jim Marshal sacked his own SON then married his sons wife so he is his owns grandchildrens step dad!!!!

What the F**ck is wrong with rotosounds

Ive exclusively used them for 5 years

Durability and tone are unsurpassed by any string I previously tried or have played since (i play alot of bass guitars)

There 45 105 standard set was developed in the sixties

(are people aware of the 1960s it was before most bands had numbers in there names and bandmembers jumped in unison as they went in to the chorus, ask your grandpa about it)

with the greatest bass player the world has ever seen JOHN THE OX ENTWISTLE of THE WHO.

And if there good enough for him there good enough for anyone,

not to mention

Rodger Waters Pink Floyd

Steve Harris Iron Maiden

John Paul Jones Led Zeppelin

Sir Paul McCartney

Stanley Clarke

(The mighty) Jaco Pastorius

Shane NAPALM DEATH

Phil Lynott Thin Lizzy

Noel Redding the Jimi Hendrix Experience

Mani Primal Scream

Geddy Lee RUSH

John Deacon Queen

BUT WHAT DO / DID THESE GUYS KNOW

Just food for thought dude!

ROTOSOUND STRINGS ARE AVAILABLE FROM

BRUCE MILLERS

363 UNION STREET

ABERDEEN

THE STAFF @ DRAKES ARE STARS

HI JUST THOUGHT I WOULD REMIND YOU OF THIS!

OH SORRY!

BUMP:laughing:

A bands name is very important coz when people arent listening to you

or seeing you live the name is all they have to go on.

so it has to catchy and descriptive of the bands sound,

band members unite under the banner of a name and you should be proud of your name coz if people ask whats the name of your band? and you start by saying

its weird but or its stupid but thats not a good thing

I should know Ive been in

DIRGE

The Janets

TYDERIUM

VINYL BILL

eric euan

BRUCE MILLERS ALSO STOCK VATER!!!
