Not sure that the fade is the main reason why this bass looks iffy…

World Machine - Level 42

Totally... I agree... B & C direct are also UK based & the factory is in Wakefield ... What has been described to me sounds like of similar quality.. but not received it yet, so we shall see......

Roqsolid aren't the cheapest, but they do make everything in the UK. They don't sell stuff made by people earning a bag of gravel a week in third world factories.

An engineering marvel. The tailpiece is so simple, but so effective. And the headstock, very neat for something with 12 tuners. Very pretty - I'd be all over that if it was a 15-string....

everybody wants to rule the world - tears for fears

I'm not sure this is as confusing as you seem to find it. Cultures bleed into and enrich each other - this is a good thing. Taking ("appropriating") an element of another culture in order to suggest a shared experience that may not exist introduces the risk of looking insensitive or cynical. Much as you yourself alluded to above: it's a matter of intent and sensitivity to the subject matter.

Is the tea grown in India and the shirt made from Indian produced cotton?

When Santa Rules His World - Deicide

Just to bring you up to speed with the last 15 years. It's the same people, chatting the same chat but the gear got lighter, GAS got more intense and basses became a lot harder to sell. Other than that, you've not missed anything. 😀

still carry mine for use as a DI to FOH

I think it would depend if you have ever whacked for your daddy, oh?

Hey Mr Christmas - The Nuggets

I have a 10" speaker and a couple of crossover circuits that someone kindly gave me at a previous bash to use to mend a PA top. I didn't need them in the end, and will never use them now, so if anyone wants then I can bring them. I'll dig out the specs.

I've just ordered one for a Warwick Gnome 2/10/4 from Bags & Covers Direct https://www.bagsandcoversdirect.co.uk/ .. after getting a quote from Roqsolid for £78 (including postage) Bags & Covers Direct have priced it at £32!... Communication has been good with them, looking forward to seeing what turns up... I've used Roqsolid for years but they just seem to be getting more & more expensive

Check out Anthony Wellington’s MILLPAD lesson…..

How far do we take this though? Are people who meditate, practice yoga or become buddhist guilty of cultural appropriation? Are Indian cricketers that enjoy a nice cup of tea and a crisp ironed shirt and brogues culturally appropriating. How about Bangalore call centre workers in Nike TNs, baseball caps and Jay Z T Shirts? How about if they form a rap group?

This song has been on repeat. Testing my Sla-P1 preset specifically for Pbass and flats. Uploaded in the suite to if anyone’s interested

Fuzzdog’s cheapest Reverb kit (including standard bypass and enclosure) is £35…..plus the Belton Brick is costed separately at £14.50. So upwards of £50 once you have postage too. Si
