Just learned that the wonderful actor Adrian Dunbar who, among many other roles, played Chief Superintendent Ted Hastings in Line of Duty is a member of our club... "Although he’d achieve fame in films such as My Left Foot (1989) and The Crying Game (1992), Dunbar started out as a musician. In the 1970s, he played bass and sang backing vocals in an Elvis impersonator’s band." https://inews.co.uk/culture/television/adrian-dunbar-people-trust-bbc-not-any-more-3842057 -

Thought I’d join in as I’ve got something mildly interesting to post for a change - this just turned up from Master Effects in Canada, ordered from him on Reverb 28/7 and shipped on 2/8 to arrive today - no fees or anything to pay which was a bonus. Haven’t tested it properly yet but going to gig it tonight with a local trio where I go direct to PA/IEM’s so we’ll see how it goes, might be on the marketplace next month 😁 Highly recommend dealing with Master Effect’s tho, it’s a 1 man band afaik (well he may employ people but it’s a small operation like Sushi Box etc) and he couldn’t have been more helpful. I’ll probably give the Super 800+ a go at some point as well - the pedal is extremely well made and sounds excellent but I’ll reserve judgement proper till I’ve gigged with it a bit

Tried listening to The Stranglers today....

Does this help? I've run the ending of the track through Logic Pro's stem splitter to isolate the bass (it's not perfect and it hasn't managed to separate the bass guitar from the synth bass - however as it's in unison I think this serves it's purpose). Peaches Ending.wav -

shoulderpet started following Short scale string advice
-
You typically want to go up a gauge for short scale, going up 2 gauges will give you the same tension as long scale however you want to avoid that as the same tension on a shorter scale bass will feel stiffer.

Whilst I shamefully must admit to speeding up the playback for bass parts, I can now see how slowing down could work: Just slow down by a factor 128, and use tally marks on a sheet of paper for the individual hertzes. 👍😐 -

Becos CompIQ MINI Pro Compressor - £140 Delivered in UK. In brand new condition with box. Purchased from Joe's Pedals in May this year. I love compressors and like to try as many as possible. This one is fantastic and gives my favoured Keeley Compressor Pro a real run for the money. Once I dialled in my settings I couldn't tell them apart. The Becos is much cheaper and has several additional features. Potential buyers are welcome to try out in Glasgow. https://becosfx.com/product/compiq-mini-pro-compressor-pedal-for-guitar-bass/#description https://joespedals.com/collections/pedals/products/compiq-mini-pro-compressor

Do you think it might be obvious because it exists already? It certainly makes nut adjustments an absolute breeze either way. -

Ladies/gents. This Jazz PU is from a 'VM P/J bass' which Ive converted back to P bass only. Reason for the carnage? It's one of the nicest P bass's Ive ever played. Light weight, with a great neck and tone and as you'll see in the photo nicely re-done by yours truly with a vintage bridge and in my fav colour.....BMW Gold! These DD PU's are SD's sleepers and this J PU is 'honky' as it gets. I could get a really nice Jaco bark from it.. but that tone is not my thing hence the conversion. Fully adjustable pole pieces and the little cutout is just so the wires could run freer. Pic of bass after conversion is for reference only... Its defo not for sale. £30 plus say 3 quid for postage? Cheers

Yamaha have been making musical instrument since 1887 and pianos in 1900, which is why their logo is three tuning forks. -

It's a thing in the cello world as well "antiqued" - no, if I'm buying a new instrument I want is to look nice, not as if someone has thrashed it with branches off a holly tree -
