The question I have in these circumstances is if PMT still owed money to their suppliers, does some of that stock still belong to the supplier?

Okay cool. I never once referred to a scale however. Your GPT post starts by saying it's in C Minor and the OP found it helpful.

There aren’t too many of these around so I’d suspect most haven’t had a chance to try one. I’ve had four (and still have one) and for me, they’re amongst the finest Precisions around. Build quality is usually excellent, with real attention to detail – this was the Dan Smith era. Body contouring is often superb – a return to the dramatic curves found on some earlier Ps. The only downside for me is that they tend to be heavy. This looks like a real bargain despite the compromised circuit.

How was Your rehearsal last morning or night ?
Franticsmurf replied to nilorius's topic in General Discussion
Rehearsed last night with a band in which I'm depping as bassist on Saturday. I always wonder what tunes will be in the set following the assurance that 'it's all standard pub rock stuff'. In this case it was 'all standard rock stuff' - apart from 'YMCA', 'Living Next Door to Alice' and 'My Girl'. And having spent extra time on YMCA to get the disco octave thing going, it turns out they play it as straight rock. But it was a good and productive evening, no messing but not taken too seriously either. We rehearsed in the director's suite of the local rugby/cricket club and I was stood in the panoramic west facing window as the sun went down. So most of the evening was spent with little beads of sweat trickling down my back. I'll be using my Sterling 34HH and, for the first time in ages, backline consisting of 2x TE 1x10 cabs and a Peavey Minimax 600, bypassing the front end in favour of an Ampeg SCR DI. -

Being Gig Fit (Like Match Fit in football)

I think a lot of it is mental, make a rehearsal as much like a gig as you can. Standing during rehearsal before a gig helps. Don’t face each other, throw a coat in the corner and say that’s your audience. If you’ve never done it, you’ll cut down on gaps between the songs, play with more energy, carry more confidence into the gig. -
That'll sort it. Probably double the cost of the pickups but...

I do this a lot at work! Though for me it's bags of compost; I often have to carry bags to customer's cars so it's 50m with a 50l bag in each hand. Finding a good grip on the plastic bag makes it into a grip strength double exercise. And the hardest of all is once a month we get 2 15kg bags of dog food delivered to work. I try every time to carry both to the car 200m away - so far I've not got past 120m without having to put 'em down! -

Bassline needed: Lose it by Ben L'oncle
Burns-bass replied to solo4652's topic in General Discussion
It’s a Motown style track, so C minor wouldn’t really fit the “vibe”. People don’t think in terms of scales when compositing. You can try playing C minor fills over this but it’s not going to sound good! Anyway, we’ve got all the right notes for the OP to play it. Which is much more important! -
If that’s all you need for your musical output, awesome! You could just use one of the Pedaltrain pedal risers, the PB2, which seems to fit the Shure and the switch (if the internet is correct in telling me the 1590G Hammond enclosure is a good size for a placeholder image). I’m assuming the switch is passive, and so no space needed for power as you’re likely just plugging the Shure in directly to the wall: Si

I am selling a pair of Shure 315 in-ear headphones in excellent condition. I bought them a while back in Westend DJ in London, but haven't used them all that much. Initially, I bought them to practice bass at home, but never used them to play live. I have used them for a few rehearsals, and they do the job well. They are lightweight, sit nicely, and the cable is sturdy. The sound is mid-focused, making it ideal for vocalists or guitar players. It works for bass as well, just don't expect massive low-end. They will come with all Shure accessories (pouch, extra eartips). I did buy an additional cable with a mic for them, but never tested it. I will also include some extra eartips I have. This is a genuine pair of Shure headphones/IEMs, so buy with confidence. Thanks! Free postage in the UK.
