Just found a deadspot on my Dingwall. I am annoyed.

I mean, it may end up being less of an issue after a setup and a change of strings - won't go away but could be less noticable. These Dragonskins+ seem to be very high tension. I could try putting the old set on to see - I keep the previous set and shove in my gig bag in case of a breakage. Handy to have a precut set to hand. -

I know. It's just that I do anchor myself on that part of the fretboard and now I've heard that the C doesn't sustain it niggles me! I think I can mititgate it a bit though so will report on next steps. -

I don't play with attitude or aggression, but I do remember when I was that shape. Oh for those days again!! -

I have a Verellen Meatsmoke preamp. Mine's a pedal but he did make rack mounted ones aswell. Goes anywhere from clean and warm to high gain armageddon. If you can find one. Personally, I also get great results with a Sansamp GT2 or RAT2 where you mix the perfect tone between the dirt and the filter controls.

Great bassist, plenty of attitude, whilst people might say he didn’t play anything difficult he did it with the attitude and aggression the material required, doing that for a whole gig is harder than many might think. -

Ed sold me a Stingray Zero Mod thumb rest which arrived safe and sound via First Class post. Excellent and trustworthy Basschatter.

I had a dead spot on one of my Sires, 7th fret on the G string, that seemed to have just.....disappeared. I'm pretty sure I put flats on it long after that, but other than that I can't account for any change. -
It isn't. But it is legendary. I want it.

My grandfather made live steam engines in his shed in Essex after ww2. My father sold them all before I was born, I was outraged at this news as a child. I still love a bit of coal powered engineering though. Back on track, pune intended I may remodel my viger headstock based on the incredible “road worn” look on that westone. Strong work.

Best gig I ever went to was The Ramones at the Humming Bird Birmingham in around 1993. My one slight regret that by the time was old enough to see them Dee Dee had left the band. Still both he and the rest of the band were a huge influence on me from the first time I heard them in my early teens & I'm glad I got to see them a couple of years before they finally stopped touring. -
