That's great, thanks guys.

I'm pleased to say that this month we will be working up a mould for the standard EB SR5 bass, with the 22 fret neck. Measurements are to be confirmed but the same options will be available for this neck that are available for the other necks (below). Necks come with: PEEK fingerboard with MOP side dots, Luminay side dots are available for £10 upcharge. Rosewood, ebony and wenge fingerboards are available for a £75 upcharge. Fretless (lined or unlined) is a £30 upcharge. Fingerboard inlays: MOP or abalone dots are standard, MOP blocks are a £30 upcharge. Abalone blocks are also available but slightly smaller than jazz blocks. Other options - please talk to me. TUSQ nuts installed but not slotted (slotting requires a string gauge to be assumed) 21 stainless steel frets (levelled to a straight neck) Double action truss rods (heel capstan wheel style adjustment) M4x40 neck bolts and inserts will be supplied. (NB the necks don't come pre-drilled because neck bolt locations vary from bass to bass, the inserts must be used) Tuner holes are drilled ( TBC) but screw holes for tuners are not (again, because different tuner designs have different hole locations) NB: Dimensions are consistent with SR5 necks but are not Ernie Ball Music Man licensed products or in anyway associated with Ernie Ball Inc. obviously. There may be fractions of a millimetre difference due to manufacturing tolerances, we recommend having an experienced luthier fit the neck for the best possible fit. All rights to trademarks belong to their respective owners etc. Specifications subject to change without notice due to continual, ongoing improvements.

Great gig last night. A long long day and all for charity. 7 tribute artists across three back line bands. The event was sold out a couple of hours before doors. Line up was Bon Jovi (Jon Jovi), Alanis Morissette, Elton John, ABBA, Elvis, David Bowie (ChangesTwoBowie) & Queen (Queenage) - plus encores from 4 of them. I played Bowie and Queen plus the encore set. It's nice to get paid, but to have an audience go this nuts for the songs they love, I'd do it again tomorrow. A truly remarkable ensemble who I'm honoured to have as friends. Not sure what the final total is yet, but I'm expecting it to be lots of thousands.

Says that the EQ is boost only. All the other reviews I've seen say it's boost and cut. I shall have more of a play tomorrow.

You could use a powerblock - admittedly you'd still need a cable between light and powerblock, but you wouldn't need a mains socket for it. I've got five of them incoming for the grand total of £11 (two for £4.50 and a minimum order of £10), so need to think about how to power them.

For a second there I thought you were talking about well polished boots.

I remember reading Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy for the first time and something about it seemed odd, and I realised it was the first book I'd read with ragged right justification.

I was looking rather for a rechargeable, autonomous version, to be placed freely anywhere, with no cabling. The effect looks good, so I'll keep on looking.

I ended up going the splitter/mixer pedal route and just ordered one of these... Thanks for the tips. I'll be keeping a watch out for phasing anomalies.

I have a 7 output usb psu.

I got one from AliExpress for about £40. Just went back, looked at the order and went to the item currently on sale - £140! The difference is the unheadstock end. The A type with the bigger lump has an integral adjustable nut and clamps concealed by the cover. The B type has five little clamp things so presumably you supply your own nut. The guitar equivalent of the A type is fitted to the Jamstik Studio MIDI guitar - https://jamstik.com/collections/midi-guitars/products/b-stock-of-jamstik-studio-midi-guitar?variant=45365173125345 There's a drawing of the A type unheadstock at https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005007488329170.html

Where do they get their power from..?

This is a hideous experience. My SO is concerned about me drinking to much before I drive down tomorrow...

Well come and say hello buddy. Should be a canny weekend

A mate had one of these in full form and even with the shonky “ABT” own brand pickups it was a burpy marvel - a very lovely thing; think he paid £100 for it. id persevere and spray it an obnoxious metallic orange or green neon once you’ve resolved its issues x

Ordered, thanks everyone! 🙏🏼

My stuff has changed but will be of interest to @stewblack if no-one else

It's insane that such cheap stuff is so good. Saw them at a club and couldn't believe how effective they are.

There are strategies

It's more useful for FOH EQ in my opinion.
