Or originally and arguably, skatepunk 😁 Then BobbyT got really good and they became a bit more funkpunk! And Turnstile appear to have been a lot harder in the past - shame they've gone all wuss now! This is the last "hardcore" band we played with, though in the daft world of extreme categorisation they're also street punk and thrash punk/metal - Potbelly In 3 weeks we're playing with hardcore Brazilians Anti Virus, though they could be just punk... And next week, we're playing with OG punks, the Samples. They're definitely not hardcore. Or Thrash. Or Metal.

One thing I would miss on my SY200 is the arpeggiator, which gets use on a couple of live tracks. But layering this with the SY200 could be pretty cool! It's going on the birthday wish-list!

One more: Too late for goodbyes (Julian Lennon - Valotte).

Sunday night jam was a good , but slightly unusual one. There was a lot going on around the downtown core and the waterfront. Lots of people out. We just had a couple of guitar players , usually there’s too many. The house band is just harmonica , bass & drums. Some great horn players in , lots of drummers and bass players. Finding a parking spot can be a misery when the downtown fills up. Good crowd , just a shortage of guitarists.

Will they build a road to Bath Edward? 😆

Poundcake- van halen

I picked one up on here fairly recently. such a great and handy tool.

Just Wow!!

I've had my Italia short scale bass for eight years. It took some finding but I eventually tracked one down at Richard's Guitars in Stratford-upon-Avon. Since then they have not been advertised anywhere. I did see a used one on the Bass Direct site last year costing just shy of £1000 - about £350 more than I paid new! I'm not sure if they are still being made or imported. I recently had the bass set up by Overwater (I live a ten minute walk from their studios in Carlisle) and it plays a treat - even in my hands!

This is an actual synth rather than a "synth emulator" like the Boss SY1 / 200? If so, the tracking / lack of glitchiness is incredible - check out IMA's clip above at 12.44 playing a low D on the B string, and (12.55) pulling off onto the low E - effortlessly tracked. +1 ^^ 😅

So where do you get a HW one? I have always heard about them but they seem like noone knows where they come from!

Looking forward to this! I see how nicely responsive it is to IMA's playing like palm mute or staccato notes. Managed to order one. Already sold on prestet 1 and covers alot. Exciting!

Inconsiderate is what I call it . There’s a walnut 4003s (I need the lighter weight) about 4 hours away from me, which makes riding out the GAS a little easier.

Can't beat a Jetglo 4003 IMO. Good purchase. 👍🤘

I'd be happy to post a link once I've tidied it up. It needs a good editing.

It's a wonderful little gadget. I've had mine for over 10 years and it still works perfectly.

I’m not sure if Dawn and Rob are starting to wind down to a proper retirement.

Original (80s) Hohners and Steinberger Spirits were made in the same factory using the same hardware and were essentially the same instruments. As a Steinberger player since 1984, it still amazes me the continuing controversy/ furore over these instruments. They were designed to address various shortcomings of the traditional electric bass and the all wood versions retain a surprising amount of those benefits. Yes, it will feel a bit odd at first but give it a few days and you’ll feel much more at home.

Urgh @police squad you got me GAS’ing again - Rics were my first love as a kid, and I’ve not had one for 15 years… 🤔😬 Looks great 👌

If it has an E or W then it's most likely WMI who made superb budget instruments, either way if you like it and it's £250 then grab it.

How much would postage be please? approximately…
