I don't keep my guitar with me 24/7, no.

Mumsnet is amazing. Whenever I feel like I'm overreacting, I go over there and have a browse. An hour later, I know that I really don't overreact when compared to others

Couldn't agree more, and if I had the option then it would be a proper kit everytime. When I move house and get a detached one I'll have a dedicated studio for stuff like this, so it'll happen then.

My house is end of terrace, no way I could get away with an acoustic set in there, next door have two small children too. It's a Roland HD-1, and I have to say it's excellent at what it does.

So after buying the guitar, I kinda decided to buy this too: Digitech RP1000 multieffect/amp modeller thing. My old trusty RP6(!) from 1996 has just about given up on me, and I've decided to bite the bullet and get this to replace it. Loads of stuff on there as I'm sure you can imagine, and I can download patches from the interweb to give me custom tones designed by others. You can either have 10 patches or 5 patches and 5 stompboxes. Arrives tomorrow if I can catch the postie in time, should be ace!

Really? One tiny mistake on a programme that was probably scheduled a year ago since it's a repeat makes the whole BBC look incompetent? I agree that there's some things they need to look into, but this really isn't one of them. I wouldn't want them to pay someone to sit there and watch every single programme that goes out just before it's aired just in case there's something in there that someone somewhere might or might not take offence to.

Given that Saville will never see a courtroom to decide his guilt, I'm perfectly comfortable with seeing his stuff on the TV. No, I don't think there should be a huge 12 hour marathon dedicated to him, but neither do I need to be completely protected from ever seeing his image again. Once again, Brass Eye's paedo special is proving dangerously close to the mark.

Kinda what I expected as well. Must admit though my first thought was Photoshop! I wouldn't boycott Heineken because they sponsored a dog fight. I would boycott them on the principle that I do not drink sh*t beer :wink:

Looks like a grizzly

Servicing intervals

+1 If you can't ride it, it's not a proper dog.

Looks good, well done sir

Chopped in my Riviera against it. I made the right choice, this thing is beautiful to play and the sound variations you can get from mucking around with the pickup switches is incredible. I love it muchly.

Epic megalols! :lol: Fair play for sticking that up dude

I actually disagree with that, if something is a cat D then I want to see pics before, during and after so I can gauge how well the repair was done, which in this case was very well indeed. If the damage is hidden then I would be very wary about the vehicle, unless a full inspection was undertaken. It's to the OP's credit that he had full disclosure about the car's history.

It's below the avatar, not the name.

£7.5K is top, top money, especially for a cat D. At £5K I'd have been interested, as cat D wouldn't put me off if the price was right.

I was soooooo tempted...

If it's a specific post you have an issue with, use the report button for quicker service. Else keep an eye on which team member is online at any given time, and PM them instead.

Definitely Rays over refurb, you'll notice a massive improvement in the way the car drives

As if by magic...

That'll be the older model I suspect, which wasn't great. The current (yellow) ones are much improved, but you do need to have a bit of care with them: After all, you wouldn't want to just let it go flying and take chunks out of the interior.
