  2. Possibly the best quality gig bag ever. Superb construction, fit, and protection, whilst still being sleek and manageable. A really top notch gig bag/case. But I don't really use it, it's been out of the house only a handful of times, and it's basically as new condition. Price includes postage to mainland UK.
  3. If you like transparent compression, the MXR is advisable, sure. I mean ‘transparent’ in that it doesn’t colour your tone in a significant way, like some compressors do. It does its fundamental job, really well, while leaving your tone largely alone. Some folks want a compressor to ‘thicken’ their tone, add ‘punch’ etc … and If that’s what you want from a compressor then the MXR isn’t for you. It contributes to the above, obviously, though its true quality is its ‘cleanliness’. Besides that, the functionality is on point. Highly controllable, intuitive, and the metering is invaluable. With such a seemingly transparent compressor, I find the metering to be extremely useful in dialling the thing accurately. I’ve had ‘tone magic’ compressors in the past, but I like to find my tone magic in other ways … let a compressor be just that. This one is an unexciting and utilitarian pedal that quietly and confidently does something super useful, really well.

  12. this may have already been mentioned but for low b definition i would suggest auditioning a status graphite with the graphite neck ...the pickup quality is a given.

  14. If that situation occurred in a car saleroom, you'd seriously suspect it was a pressure selling tactic.
  15. Nah, no mockery needed, gonna go with the original plan of black, dark grey and white.

(Neck Pickup), Tone 2. (Bridge/Middle Pickup with Push/Pull Coil Select Feature) Pickups – Fender Ultra Noiseless™ Vintage Jazz Bass® What Fender say about this bass – ‘The “Deluxe Jazz Bass® V Kazuki Arai Edition,” which was produced in limited quantities in 2021 as a signature model of Kazuki Arai, bassist for King Gnu and millennium parade, has now been made into a more accessible model and added to the regular product lineup. The guitar features an original neck shape and Dinky-shaped body that the artist was particularly particular about, and the electric section is equipped with an Ultra Noiseless™ Vintage Jazz Bass® pickup and the latest preamp, inheriting the playability and sound quality of the previous model. In addition, a new feature not available in the previous model is the inclusion of a thin pickguard of approximately 1.0 mm sandwiched under the gold anodized pickguard of approximately 1.2 mm, which gives the same playing feel as a 3-ply pickguard while maintaining the same appearance.’ One of my Feedback links. https://www.basschat.co.uk/topic/137382-feedback-for-harry/#comment-1241408

  19. Think it's my first post of a gig, so here goes! Overview: I was asked to dep Friday afternoon for 2 gigs at the weekend, by a band a mate is in, but I'd never rehearsed with them. 30+ songs in the set, most were familiar too me as a listener, but I'd not played 80% of them before. Charts of a sort** were provided as PDFs. Tablets fine on stage. I'm not a fluent notation reader. Many non-original keys and arrangements. Cue, intensive learning over 24 hours. It was a very challenging couple of gigs, lots of things that could go wrong, did go wrong with songs, gear, tech, etc. Learnt again to hang in there, trust my ears, play for the band and get through it. Overall a great experience. VID20250824205002.mp4 Venue: A big bar in Skegness Band: an 8-piece Soul & Motown covers band Structure: 2 Sets of 15 songs each, plus encores. 9pm start. Pay: not enough 🤣 Gear: 5-string Jazz (Lakland Skyline JO5) wireless to my pedalboard, out to my amp (Ampeg BA-210v2) and DI to the band mixer for IEMs. ** Mostly lyrics with chords, tab or notation snippets of key riffs, a few songs only with full notation, some without any, some with a fingered key (say A), but drop Eb, so output key is really Ab so necessary to transpose on the fly, silent parts not consistently shown, key changes, etc..
  20. I had this, also an elbow they gave me chloripramine which did help
  21. 👍
  22. Decent rehearsal tonight. Cut a bit short as drummer is waiting for an mri on a rotator cuff injury. "Did you do it drumming?" "No I fell over when I was pïssed." Six new songs went well. Also jammed Midnight Specialn which I'm not familiar with. Just listened to it, and my line wasn't that far off. My new earplugs worked excellently. Used the Sire P10. Got told I was a bit quiet. Did a lot of subtle fiddling with eq to no great effect - eventually realised I was in passive mode with two songs to go...
  23. What if you filled in the letters with gold or silver paint as subtle mockery of the fender logos?
  24. That is f***ing awesome there is a parallel universe where I would create something like that (as well as being a millionaire aristocrat with my own harem) but sadly I don’t live there
  25. Sounds like Nightwish with a harmonic minor scale (not a criticism).
  26. #spiritofbasschat no, @neepheid not that kind of spirit… calm down mister
  27. Ive managed to find a guitar box, so delivery is now an option
  28. How tiny ? You can get 100 of these eye liner brushes from Amazon for £3.70.
