This game mixes the thrill of parkour with fun, vibrant aesthetics and a humorous narrative that keeps players engaged. Whether you’re new to parkour games or a seasoned gamer, this guide will help you understand how to get the most out of your experience with Dreadhead Parkour. Gameplay At its core, dreadhead parkour is a free-running game where you control a character through various urban environments filled with obstacles. The gameplay emphasizes fluidity and style, making each jump, roll, and slide feel incredibly satisfying. You navigate through levels using a combination of keyboard keys or controller buttons to execute moves like wall runs, flips, and swings.

The game encourages a blend of speed and skill, rewarding you for finding the fastest routes, performing tricks, and pulling off daring stunts.

The "Pre-Cort" version would be those made by Greg Curbow in Atlanta. Greg teamed up with Cort to gain a wider audience for his ideas on ergonomics and synthetic materials. His own place was only building 10 guitars/basses a month but Cort's facilities could really ramp up production 🙂 That was around 2002. Greg passed away 2005 and Cort kept production going for a couple of years longer. I don't know how Tanglewood ended up with the design, they did a bloody good job, but it was post-Cort 🙂 Thought I'd a photo of my two together but nope. Cap on the Tanglewood was nuts 🙂

This is my second purchase from Paddy - this time I bought his Maruszczyk Elwood 5a, and the bass was absolutely as described, very well packaged, along with very fast delivery! Excellent communication, and a great guy to deal with. Highly recommended. Thanks!

I haven't seen a date posted? Their 2025 bash was 12/10/25...we're covering 2026.

Same here. It's the first song that I can vividly remember from Top of the Pops. I was 3½!

Don't rush, there are other possibilities like the Roland/Cakewalk MIDI to USB devices. I'll get back later as I have to leave right now.

I am not sure how much these comparisons really mean. There will be small differences but with the same pickups*, player, rig etc the basses will all be pretty much identical. What really matters is how comfortable the bass is to play, be that weight, shape, neck dimensions etc, then reliably - quality wiring and hardware may save some embarrassment, then aesthetics. An MDF table would serve the same function as a teak or oak one but might not look as nice or last as long. * Even this is relative and subjective. Most basses that are mass produced have fairly similar pickups eg I doubt if I could tell a Mex P from a US P or a Yamaha BB when played through the same rig. They would all sound like P basses.

At Uni we used to do the Mud Dance whenever Status Quo came on.

Would an xlr summing box work, they're relatively inexpensive, and if you have two di's as is, I assume its xlr? https://www.thomann.co.uk/millenium_sml_21.htm?gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=1581403918&gbraid=0AAAAADuDMCU57eHmqef_rUhCGUicqqn-x&gclid=CjwKCAiAu67KBhAkEiwAY0jAlRdiNhOQNn9T7tm_T-zUQaP6qsRpFvsjZycqOZtSTa6cbfErjWwbhhoC5wEQAvD_BwE

Dave Pegg plays mid level Ibanez and loves them.

I played the ass off a Stagg and never felt any need for new strings. If you were bowing one you might.

This has been done several years ago (SE Bash I think). It needs a very, very, consistent player and an agreement on tone settings. (There can be more variation from the tone controls of one instrument than between instruments. ) But yes, it's fun to hear just how good a £125 HB can be, and how really good a £3k ACG is 😁. Most interesting at the end of that video was when those listening then played the basses. They all liked the sound of the $50 bass then they heard it blindfold, but didn't like playing it at all. So for them the cheap bass wasn't worth it. But they weren't keen on the $5k one either.

In my experience it depends on the EUB and the scale length. From recollection my Stagg used full sized strings as did my KK Baby Bass. My NS NXT uses custom NS strings but can take regular length strings by wrapping them around the back of the bass. Shorter scale EUBs such as the Dean Pace and Ibanez UB804/805 use regular electric bass strings.

My mum died from Dementia Jan 2nd, and it basically kicked off an extremely traumatic 2025. I had a knee replacement in Feb, which was way harder that I thought it would be. My best pal declined rapidly after a two year battle with cancer and lost the fight in October. We buried him in November. Our drummers wife had a heart attack. Their little granddaughter found her on the floor, and remarkably the emergency services saved her, but she’s been left with severe brain trauma and is a shadow of what she was. But she’s alive thankfully. I dunno man, this year…. I for one will be glad to see the back of it. As always, stuff like this makes you think…. do the stuff you want to do, be with the ones you love, live every day to the max…. You know.

Ahh understood, I didn’t know that. Obviously I knew this one was passive, but I didn’t know the other models were all active. Interesting, I’d like to try one now. This ATK100 is more akin to the MM Joe Dart 1, I would think, it’s definitely that kind of vibe. Anyway back to the OP, definitely interested in trying one.

I used to do panto every year. The set up varied but the md ( on piano) and drummer could see the stage. I was underneath to their right. Other musicians on the opposite side of drummer and md or sat with their backs to the stage. The songs and musical interludes were set pieces so any deviation from the script was in between and so didn't affect the band. We all had a cue sheet with our music and you learned when things were coming during the band call ( rehearsal for band only ) and usually the technical rehearsal held on the same day. The songs came thick and fast so generally you just kept your eye on the md. View from the stage looking out. Id be under the stage to the left. View from inside the pit.
