Rock on!
Just had a blast on my replacement amp - sweeeet!
Hopefully this one will last more than two weeks :-)
Amp
It’s taken a while, but I’m finally getting my amp replaced. Note to self - don’t buy large, costly items from cheap German websites again.
Broken amp - but good practice
My beloved new amp stopped working at last weekend’s practice - it just stopped making any sound. It’s going to be going back to the supplier soon, but there’s no way it’ll be replaced in time for the gig :-(
But, despite that the practice went very well - if my memory is correct, we got through all but one song and they all sounded great. Really looking forward to the gig now :-)
My new toy!
My new amp arrived yesterday, just in time for last night’s practice :-)
It’s a Marshall MA50C combo. It’s 50 watts, all valve, single 12” speaker, and it sounded pretty good last night. I still need to work on getting the best sound from it, but I think it’s going to be great :-)
One bummer about last night’s practice was the decision to drop the Foo Fighter’s song The Pretender - we’ve been trying it for weeks and it’s just not working out. We’ll probably be replacing it with another Foo’s track - not sure which one yet.
