  1. Past hour
  2. It's not for sale, but if you still need one I'm happy to lend it to you in the medium/long term.
  3. Espresso - Sabrina Carpenter
  4. Apparently it has a PCB the size of the whole interior, but the actual circuit is the same size as in small one, leaving a vast empty board which looks comically weird.
  5. Well done Skank, IBTL!!
  6. Mrs Zero had her hip replaced, and I was given a date for my hip replacement, so that's quite good, although we had to postpone our summer holiday by 12 months as a result.
  7. I also struggled to hear the difference between the three 'Voicing' settings. I can only imagine it is more noticeable on guitar. I also didn't much care for the 'Mode' settings. They all sounded kind of the same, except the original Jive setting, which had drive only in the last 5th of the travel of the gain knob. I love the original Jive, but this version disappointed me.
  8. Ooft. If only I’d known.
  9. My main regret about not playing guitar any more is that my Sheraton just lives under my bad, waiting.
  10. That’s a looker! nobody has mentioned overwater yet but they make fantastic Jazzes and mine was only £500 more than a Fender artist series but I got a lot more custom options (flame top, matching headstock, ebony board)
  11. Maybe this should become a BC tradition - everyone with an Elf gets a turn at putting it somewhere odd in December and posts a picture. Hang on, this is BC - visits to A+E would become commonplace, so maybe scratch that idea!
  12. I put the East pre in as the fender one was so average. The East is such a great addition.
  13. It was Peach Guitars in Colchester. Not a dedicated bass store obviously, but a good selection and great staff.
  14. I've done quite a few high level amateur theatre productions. The exact arrangements have varied from show to show, but the most common setup is that the MD is positioned so that they can see the stage and see what's going on. The cast can also obviously see the MD too, and there's usually also a large TV screen somewhere visible from the stage so that everyone on stage can easily see the MD. The band normally have in ears, and each person gets a mini mixer so they can configure their own mix as they want. The MD normally has a talkback mic so that they can let the band know when the cue is coming up. In general, the tunes are played as written, but there will often be vamp sections which are open repeats to cover stuff happening on stage which might take longer than expected. These are agreed with the band during the band call/dress rehearsal. Sometimes there's click tracks too - if stuff goes wrong while there's a click track happening things can get... interesting!
  15. Bump for Peggy, my biggest influence and a thoroughly decent chap. I’d also like to nominate Mick for Basschat librarian/archivist.
  16. A deluxe, limited edition 3-disc CD/blu-ray set of the superb new album from John Lees' Barclay James Harvest. Quite the return to form after nine years.

  18. Played one on Sunday with a mate as a duo, me on acoustic, him on his Tele. We did Sonnet (the Verve), Jean Genie (me and him used to be in a Bowie tribute band) and Sit Down by James as a tribute to a close friend who died recently and someone we had done numerous gigs with. It was his favourite song. The whole pub joined in and most of us had tears in our eyes at the end. Hopefully a fitting tribute to a remarkable man. RIP Brian Lund
  19. Americano - Yes
  20. Remember that "settings at noon" is everything but flat. This is true with nearly every amp. For some reason people believe that the "noon" setting is really flat. You need to explore the possibilities as well as the limits of your amp by turning the pots bravely to their limits. BEWARE: you may find new and interesting sounds from your machine.
  21. VVT. And those stock from my Sire U5 are really efficient.
  22. Today
  23. Black Coffee - Black Flag
  24. How did I not spot that typo?! 🫢 Amended*
  25. Yoy could even add another J pickup to the bridge position. Talk about supercharge.
  26. The next question is: Who will take care of the BassChat to the next generations?
