  1. Hi Alan won't let me PM you for some reason. Will you do it for 25? If you're close to town or in the centre I can collect?
  2. Would fitting a jag in this case be a tad ambitious?
  3. www.soundcloud.com/marionettesband/sets/teaparties-single Here is the single in its entirety, feedback appreciated
  4. I'll also add that I'm open to offers.
  5. I should note that I'm only selling this because I have barely used it since I got an iphone. Don't want it going to waste.
  6. Hello, I have here your basic ipod classic. It has a colour screen and plays videos. I bought it new, is in good condition and has never broken on me; a very reliable mp4 player. The back casing is scratched in the manner come to be expected with ipods. £90 (open to offers) Thanks.

  9. Digitech RP100a pedal. I haven't used this in years, used to have a lot of fun fooling around with it back in the day. It's this one: http://www.musiciansfriend.com/amplifiers-effects/digitech-rp100a-artist-modeling-guitar-processor I don't have a power supply for it; it needs a 9V adaptor. £20 non-negotiable, need rid. Thanks
  10. Yeah the owner shifted these a few weeks back, apologies for not updating.
  11. EHX Nano Double Muff. £15, non negotiable for quick sale; is in immaculate condition. Looks like this: http://di1-4.shoppingshadow.com/images/pi/b1/fa/3b/105175590-260x260-0-0_Electro+Harmonix+Electro+Harmonix+Nano+Double+Muff.jpg
  12. I'll testify that this is such a good rate for the quality of recording you'll get. We couldn't be happier with our new tunes, they'll be out next month.
  13. Cheers for this graham, everyone really enjoyed themselves by the looks of things. Min diesel were in sensational form. Curry for Xmas. Yas.
  14. Just a wee reminder that this is a week on Saturday. 3 bands, free food and a party until 1am for a fiver, pretty nifty. We received our tickets for the show a couple of days ago and they are selling pretty quickly, so get in touch and we'll set one aside or arrange collection/delivery. Thanks.
  15. Posting this on behalf of a friend, the following gumtree ad is his not mine: http://www.gumtree.com/p/for-sale/extremely-rare-1988-ibanez-artstar-al-100-and-a-1990-peavey-classic-20-all-valve-amp/1004236897 PM and I'll put you in touch. Thanks.
  16. I knew I'd forgotten something from the secondary school English syllabus. I don't need to give any of you a reason.
  17. Set up for the only band I play guitar in, Marionettes. Fender American special telecaster through a Fender Hotrod deluxe via a strymon bluesky reverberator, a modded boss OD-1 (by analogue man, which I believe has tubescreamer circuitry in it but don't hold me to that), nano double muff and a tu-2. I've ditched the screaming bird treble boost and ht dual since this pic was taken. Those speakers are for show, there's no space for them in our practice basement so I use them to put things on, although I do play my orange micro terror through them occasionally. I swap between me tele and blacktop jag for tuning/capo purposes, and I love the sound of blended humbuckers with the cleans you get from fender tube amps. Throw a bit of shimmer/plate on top and it's pretty amazing. That's another thing, the gain function on my amp is knackered but it really is a blessing in disguise; I wouldn't go near those settings these days. Clean with pedals for the win. I don't have a decent pic of the blacktop jag, this is the best I could do: Have also just purchased a Japanese jag built in the early 90's. I think my next guitar purchase will be something other than Fender...
  18. Really enjoyed your set on Saturday. Good shit.
  19. Hello one and all, We're going to wrap up the year with a shindig down at Cellar 35 on Saturday 22nd December. So in short: Who: Marionettes, Min Diesel, Blatant Flaws What: A Christmas party gig extravaganza Where: Cellar 35 When: Saturday 22nd December How (much?): £5 We have DJ sets from Homealone and Ch£ap date after the bands, and the night will be running until 1am. There's also going to be pies. Lots of pies. 18+ show, tell your friends. It'll be magical.
  20. I might be good for a snare, my old one is at my parents where I'm heading tonight so I'll let you know later on. Sounds good though
