Hi, Found this site via a Google search earlier tonight. I'm looking to buy an entry level bass to learn to play, which lead me to this forum. I'm a late starter, as am no spring chicken, well into my 50's now. But you are never too old to learn! Looking forward to browsing around the various pages on the site and start learning the craft of playing bass.

Working through the ABRSM piano grades
LawrenceH replied to bass_dinger's topic in Other Instruments
Don't take this as a dampener, but rather a way of avoiding disappointment due to unrealistic expectations - the ABRSM grades are not designed as a linear progression as far as hours put in per grade. The estimated Total Qualification Time for preparing for grade 5 is 3x that for grade 1, with 2x the Guided Learning Time (ie lessons). See page 6 of the piano syllabus if you want more details, or not, because the estimated are optimistic IMO and especially so for an adult learner once you hit the higher grades! -

Why are venue house bass amps always such utter sh#te?
lozkerr replied to Paddy Morris's topic in Amps and Cabs
That is exactly what I do. Play last encore (assuming we're asked for one 😉 ), mute amp, unplug and switch off wireless transmitter, put bass into gig bag, pedal board into case, coil cables, change shades for normal specs and get off the stage sharpish. Takes about three minutes to get everything where it should be and I do final tidying up backstage or in the green room. That just seems to me to be the professional thing to do. -

My GP-50 arrived today. It does sound exactly the same as the GP-5, but sooooo much easier to use. No need to use the App at all, except for one thing. The so called onboard drum machine is nothing more than 10 different patterns of high hat. So basically a metronome. You still need the app to get any proper drum patterns. I dont intend to use this feature, but I find it very misleading (it is mentioned in the manual, but easy to miss until you get one and try and get some drum patterns going). Still, that aside, it's a keeper. I wont even need to use the Chocolate Plus now.

This came up in the Sky Arts thread (where I also mentioned Robbie Shakespeare to general blanks). For some reason they've got to be punk/new wave/prog to get the basschat radar pinging!

I've just read that Hofner have filed for bankruptcy protection in Bavaria. I assume this is the same as filing for 'Chapter 11' in the USA, which means that the business will be run by administrators in a way that protects the company from market forces for a limited period of time. The idea is to give them a last chance to avoid bankruptcy.

This pedalboard has been never used out side my shed/den/office/hideaway. I loaded it many times in different configurations, so it show minimum signs of wear. Here’s the small one I had it loaded an then bought the large one. This is the first iteration of the big one. https://nuxaudio.com/product/bumblebee/
