0:00 Very shortly but we've got

Right folks, a bit of a review on this guy here. It's from a company called Protech Metal Work Limited. Now what we're looking at here is a stand for an EFX 1000. Right, I will explain very shortly but we've got a holey bit there, it's looking rather holey and we've got a sticky out bit there and I'll show you exactly what those two are for in just a second. Right now one thing I've got to explain here, I've had a bit of a look at it. I mean it is sort of relatively self-explanatory anyway. They've made it so it's not going to fall over. So, metal, it's rather heavy and the reason for this big plate area is logically so, it's going to be completely stable. Now there's four holes, one in each corner, so if you want to, you can screw it down just in case, you know, you're going to have your auntie or your uncle come along with a pint of beer and start trying to knock it over. But, it's for the EFX. Now, if I put that there, like that, hold on, just slightly off camera, that's it,

1:05 Those two side bits are

Perfectly. What I'm going to do now is pause the camera and show you what those two side bits are for. Rather interesting, hold on. Right, now first of all there we have the base and that bit you can hang grapes on it. And then the other side you can put a whisk in it like that. What do you mean? OK, alright. Let's move that out there. Put that about there. Right, OK. Yes, I'm silly but what the heck eh? Bit of fun. That's for your headphones. And that there This is for your microphone. Now I haven't screwed that in correctly, but it gives you a general sort of idea. What I'm going to do now is put it in situ. In other words, I'm going to have it theoretically how you would put this in your bedroom or wherever. Hold on. Right, here we go. Deck there, mixer, another deck and there is the EFX of course with headphones and with microphone. Or is it microphone and headphones? Or maybe microphone...

2:04 Grape and a whisk

Grape and a whisk. Right, grapes. Right, there you go. That's slightly better. Now again, size and shape etc. because people always like to know how high, long, wide. And instead of giving you centimetres or inches I like to do it in CDs. In fact, what they should say from now on is from here to there is 500 CDs because we all roughly know how big one of those is. So, basically from your mixer You're looking at about two CDs up until you get to the base of the unit. Now what I've got is there's a lip all the way around there so it's not going to fall down. Admittedly it can fall up but I don't think it's ever going to do that unless you start tipping about all over the place, alright? So there you go, it's from a company called Protech Metalworks Ltd and they can make stands for absolutely anything, alright? What I'll do as ever, I'll put a clickable link in the description that will take you to all relevant information.

Or maybe you want to email them, alright? So I'm going to say practice and enjoy. And give me grapes. Hang on, Eric. Hang on. I might be pipping that one.
