    Good idea.

    I set the TV volume at zero, and use the HiFi volume to control the sound level. It does not have numbers. David

    It is arguable that Apple Juice is more potent than a JD, especially when diluted with cola.

    The pain and discomfort of the headache will do more harm than a few paracetamols.

    I can think of 3+2 examples but not many 3+1. Could they potentially be under license? The prototype Z series had 3+1 but IIRC Sire were threatened unless they modified it.

    I can do it for less in a different/no case if that helps.

    Many years back a mate of mine downed a bottle of Jack Daniels on stage for maximum rock n roll effect - it actually contained apple juice.

    Back when I used to race downhill mountain bikes, I "borrowed" a couple cans of redbull from a team who were sponsored by redbull. The cans were marked "For Athletes Only" I excitedly took a swig of the special energy drink and the cans were filled with water. I guess it's entirely possible that alcohol manufacturers make special bottles for musicians filled with something non alcoholic.

    I would take a look on this: https://www.jerzydrozdbasses.com/akcndfr54jdhrei567/Ultimate_Guide_ver100.pdf

    Literally just picked this up from jimbobothy but it's a tad too small for my needs, so looking to get back what I paid for it and no more. £25 posted using Tracked 48. I'm using Jim's pictures, which I hope is okay with him.

    Other manufacturers do basses with 3+1 headstocks. Although, I suppose, most of them don't look (or sound) quite as much like the original as the Sire Z-series does...

    I appear to have entered the rather expensive world of Origin Effects 😁

    Would likely take an interesting swap for this. I was hoping to use the money towards a short scale ACG, but also in the market for a Jazz, preferably a Flea signature in pink if there's any going round. Send me a PM, always up for a chat!

    Thank you to Mike and the Scrumpettes for your work over the years. Hopefully someone can take things on.

    Hide the SSID?
  22. Chienmortbb
    I had a similar experience, the guitarist turned on is new Wireless system and the mixer disappeared. One of the problems with 2.4GHz is that, as well as the overuse of the band, Wi-Fi channels overlap. 5.8GHz do not, having a guard band between channels. To avoid any issues, you should also do a scan using your phone. iPhone and iPad have a utility called Airport Utility that allows you to see any close networks. Also, you must secure your network AND hide the SSID.

    I only managed to come to the last one but thoroughly enjoyed it. I had actually started to plan for the next one. Thanks very much for all the hard work that the whole team have put in. As I organise the NW Bass Bash, I know it doesn't just happen and the more effort you put in, the easier it looks to everyone. Yours looked very easy Hopefully somebody might want to pick the SW Bash up for this year (he says hopefully). Rob

    It has occurred to me that there are famous musicians who are associated with drinking, drug use, etc. who still manage to be healthy enough to be touring musicians in their 80s and I can't quite tally the 'rock and roll lifestyle' with reaching old age in good health. I am suspicious that there's not as much riotous behaviour as we'd be led to think. We went to a small rock festival of cover bands back around 2011 and quite a few of the musicians on stage were drinking straight from 70cl bottles of Jack Daniels in between songs. Call me dubious, but I strongly suspected they were full of Irn Bru, or similar as they were all playing extremely well, not at all inebriated.
  26. MichaelDean
    Sad to hear it too, but thanks so much for the work you, Gabrielle and the Scrumpettes all put into it. I really enjoyed the three I went to.
  27. SteveXFR
    Even if its similar price to America, the higher quality would still be an advantage.
  28. Bassassin
    I hope whoever you borrowed it off didn't pay much for it, thinking it was a hand-made one-off. I think I paid about £40 for mine.
  29. Woodinblack
    Will post back if I get any dropouts, haven't so far, but early days. I don't think I had any dropouts with the U4 (although I did have a total transmitter failure) so maybe I just don't go far enough! I also haven't had any inteference with any of the other wirless stuff.
  30. Rosie C
    Sad news. I only managed to make the one last year, but it was fantastic. Thank you to all of you for the work you've done organising over the years.
