  1. Past hour
  2. Can't help feeling that the seeds of this myth were sown way back by Fender as an indirect way of rubbishing Gibson's 31"-scale basses and setting Leo's 34" scale as the gold standard.
  3. Portability was a major factor for me too. I'd imagine you'll be fine with the 112's then. If I get a higher wattage amp any time soon, I'll let you know how they handle it.
  4. I defer to @neepheid as the man now in charge. PA and stage is a grey area, depending on the band etc, but if you're buying lighting then it won't be grey any longer but beautifully lit up, so I would allow it. Repairs are allowed, so nothing to declare.
  5. It's the closing bracket for the phrase "( stop sniggering @Geek99)"
  6. I am interested too but for the EU hehe
  7. Soldier Of Fortune - Deep Purple
  8. Today
  9. Made me think of a couple of songs by the utterly bonkers and amazing Oaf: The Terrors, and Eggbound. https://oafmusic.bandcamp.com/album/birth-school-oaf-death
  10. English Civil War - The Clash
  11. will wait till mid feb. happy new year everyone !
  12. Have a bump on me - these things are awesome
  13. as @Sean says P retrowind was awesome.
  14. @zmeynal Not a problem at all, please ping me when you are back. Mid Feb works perfectly fine for me. Would love to buy this instrument.
  15. I think the children/beginners thing could possibly be just about the biggest myth in the entirety of the world of bass 😊
  16. I got home at 8:30. It was a good gig. We sounded good ,had a great crowd, good food and the dep drummer was pretty good. Daryl
  17. "Have you improved?" - one of the stranger questions I've been asked. It turns out he thought we had since he last saw us. Anyway NYE proper (we played last night too) was a great night. The place was rammed, plenty of dancing. Mrs Norris even had a couple more glasses of prosecco than she would normally drink. The small stage extension I was on made for an interesting sound. (Photo taken during drum solo) The place had apparently not been as full since covid. Fabulous night, lots of nice comments and compliments. Have a great new year!
  18. Ok. I'll play. I have a PA for sale and some bass shaped cash I need to get rid of. But going on past experience it could take several days (365+) to find the right bass shaped hole to put it in. Is lighting mentioned anywhere in the fail tiers?
  19. Hi, I think so, I'll double check in the morning!
  20. Great fun NYE job , officially my first gig as a full member, been depping for them over the last year here and there . Storrington West Sussex . Appy new year folks!
  21. @andybassdoyle any suggestions?
  22. Rich Tone is my local and they’re lovely people. As for prices for selling your gear with them, they generally pay you 60% of what they’ll list it for (slightly more if you are part exchanging).
  23. Thanks. He’s 18 now and ASD. Unfortunately he was on waiting lists for adolescent mental health care and was (eventually) being helped by adolescent social services. However, he got ditched the moment he turned 18, so we had to go through the processes all over again for adult care. He’s definitely doing much better than this time last year, but it’s a constant struggle and has really taken it out of me.
  24. I've been itching to buy a new bass all year but may get down halfords next week and buy some emery paper for the frets. Although I'm really not impressed with the replacement Active preamp I bought. Sometimes you have to call it a day...
  25. I hope 2026 brings some improvement. I don't know how old your son is but hope he can get the help he needs.
