    What if you filled in the letters with gold or silver paint as subtle mockery of the fender logos?

    That is f***ing awesome there is a parallel universe where I would create something like that (as well as being a millionaire aristocrat with my own harem) but sadly I don’t live there
  4. Stub Mandrel
    Sounds like Nightwish with a harmonic minor scale (not a criticism).

    #spiritofbasschat no, @neepheid not that kind of spirit… calm down mister

    Ive managed to find a guitar box, so delivery is now an option

    How tiny ? You can get 100 of these eye liner brushes from Amazon for £3.70.

    I’m the same with my U5, not a problem for me. My issue now is that I have two 30” scale basses - the U5 and a Squier Jaguar a mate has recently given me - and only really need one, but which needs to be moved on? Both have their good points, and are almost identical weight wise. Going to take them on gigs over the next few weeks to try and decide.

    We used to use passive speakers and a (heavy!) power amp. The powered Mackies are a real game-changer. Just those and a mixer with built-in echo/reverb, it's a lovely quick setup and breakdown

    It’s a fairly budget system comprising two passive bins with internal crossovers linked to two 10 inch passive tops. We use a Yamaha EM512SC to power these, 2x500 watts. It all works okay, but does need upgrading. Did a gig recently where we used in house QSC powered 12 inch cabs and it sounded great. Ideally would like something to handle acoustic guitar, acoustic / electric bass as well as 2 vocal mikes, probably powered cabs like your Mackies or similar. RCF stuff gets lots of recommendations on here too, so will have to start looking.

    It was the Canon that had me drooling for an Enfield for a very long time. I ended up with a Lionheart Air which ticks all the boxes for me but if cost was not a consideration I'd have this in a heartbeat. GLWTS!

    It certainly looks the same apart from the paint.

    I’ve been very happy with mine and I haven’t found the forearm thing too bad. There is a bit of a contour at the back edge but not enough. I have found stick on foam edging works on other basses with edge binding. The sort of stuff made to make furniture edges safe for toddlers. It would mess up the look of the Sire but might be worth a try, if you find the binding too uncomfortable.

    I must admit, I have yet to click "play" on any of this AI music. Perhaps that makes my opinion on it uninformed, but I feel that if it wasn't worth someone's time to write, play and record it, it's not worth my time and attention to listen to it.

    Probably the same concerns that arose when recordings became viable , the industry made plenty of money selling reproductions of artists performances , technically not actually real. The money and authenticity now is in the performance again.
  19. Bill Fitzmaurice
    Looks the same to me, other than the paint. If the OP's was an OEM that might explain it, as OEM very often left out cosmetic touches.

    What PA are you using? Our pair of Mackie SRM-450s are fairly old technology now, but easily handle our vocals and occasional acoustic guitar, and can be picked up second hand for not many notes

    Just what I'm looking for @Paddy777! PM'd you

    That board has an aesthetically pleasing look. Nicely laid out. How do you find the MXR compressor? I'm thinking about getting a dedicated one (I'm not finding the ones on multi-pedal usable).

    As ever - context is everything. I saw a band on Friday night Papa Shango. Adult rock (Limp Bizkit?) pantomime on steroids is how I'd describe it. Female and male lead singers, 4 backing singers and a lead guitarist wandering around the floor. Rhythm, bass and drums occasionally joining them. Walking round the audience with squirty cream, biscuits, water pistols, it was a full on audience participation. If they're playing local go and watch it, even if the music isn't your cup of brandy. I'm all for that kind of ridiculousness. We have a tendency to take ourselves far too seriously.

    There's such examples posted on this GP-5 FB group, inc mine. It's good to have both 5V USB and 9V nozzle power options on the GP-5 https://www.facebook.com/groups/2661648260701246/?ref=share

    For me I thought Chi Cheng had this very laid back groove that worked between the guitars and drums. Simple and functional but with a great feel.

    Both seem perfectly rational to me.

    I did that on Saturday (as ususal). The landlord gave me a free pint.

    And there's a thread specially for that too, isn't there?

    My buddy built me a COT-50 derivative tweaked ever so slightly for bass and I made it more ergonomic. It adds the tube-like drive, and more overdrive when boosted, even up to low-gain fuzz levels. It improves the sound of almost any other pedal after it. It would provide what you need, but you need to dial teh drive with Level knob and volume knob(s) on your bass, otherwise it's overdriving constantly. Of course there are diagrams for COT-50 clones that have a dedicated drive/gain knob. That's one idea I'd try. The other is Earthquaker Devices Blumes. It seems to fit your needs quite well.
