That’s what we like to hear!

Makes sense! I knew I’d inevitably have to go for some overkill but I didn’t know if there was “too much” so to speak!

Ah that sounds good! I have looked at ashdowns as well and although I’m yet to use one they do look and sound great from what demos I’ve watched! My initial plan was to sort amps before pedals but with lockdown in effect I decided to splash on some pedals so I had something to play about with...

Alternate between Sheffield and Manchester!

That’s a fair point you raise! I understand a lot of people have had horror stories with lending gear etc. and sometimes people do take the michael, I’ve lent a few guitars in the past and they’ve all returned fine however one of my mates was cheeky enough to tell me to get new tuners hahaha

Regarding rehearsal I use amps provided by the practice space as they have them set up in the different room, it’s luck of the draw what you get though:laugh:.

Ah that’s such an ordeal but I bet it did sound great! And yes I will let you all know how it goes and show you the rig I finally decide and of course how it sounds on the night!

I know I have just checked :( However there are some retailers not to far from me who are selling some on clearance so with a bit of luck I can snatch one soon!

212 does sound fearful indeed ;) Definitely a set up for me to investigate

Yeah I suppose that does make sense! We’ve not received news re: PA from the venue itself but the company running the show have said there should be PA there so it’s just waiting game until we know

That sounds like a great rig! Will have to try it out

This is really useful to know and I will definitely consider it when shopping, thanks so much!

Lots of different rigs I’ve seen in this thread already, thank you for all of the responses they have been a world of help! Regarding the gig, it’s only one gig for now however we are hoping to play some more after this one and therefore I would like to start building my rig now and wanted some...
