  1. Past hour
  2. There's a song about that. "Mustang Sarnie".
  3. I think we were separated at birth. What you could try (with no guarantee that this will work) is to put up four 8' x 1' (if we're insisting on using antique measurements) shelves above the current desk-like object, and transfer the topmost strata from said desk-like object to the shelves. This will also allow you to impose a temporary organisation on the objects thereby moved, and possibly even dispose of some of them (unlikely, I know, but you may find the right hard place in your heart).
  4. Enjoyed watching this. There's quite a lot on here that BC'ers have been buying and liking!
  5. Or, as the Tesco Recipe book describes it, "horses for courses"....
  6. Today
  7. If you are tempted by that, you might like the new Fodera / Trickfish pre. Same price, and with endless eq options. Both are beyond what I’d pay for a pedal (but I do own a Motown DI which is also not cheap, with zero eq options and it has been in daily use here for around maybe 10 years or so).
  8. Yesterday
  9. Rather ironic given that the USA had brought in legislation mandating which side the foot controls should be and determined that the gear shift should be on the left, where the Japanese had it, not the right, where the Americans and British had it.
  10. Our singer works for a dog rescue charity - a small scale one, it's not Battersea Dog's Home. We've done a charity gig for them, in a village hall, with helpers doing the drinks sales and suchlike. We were quite happy to do that unpaid. Mrs Zero and I have also been in another band which did a couple of charity gigs - again, these were local charities and we knew the organisers. We did do one where we got paid - we gave half our fee back.
  11. That is a nice bit of walnut. What finish did you use on the body?

  14. already i'm my head i know i will own one of these one day ...it's not a question of if but when ...but having said that my preamp collection is getting a tad out of hand ...its embarassing.
  15. Yes, it came with a PSU, I was curious to try the USB power feature. I am very surprised at how long it lasted - got tired of waiting for it to indicate even 25% usage after 90 mins.
  16. Look on ebay for writing desks and Welsh dressers. They are pretty much unsellable especially if they are dark brown wood, made in the 70s or 80s, and definitely if they are huge. Convert the draw fronts into drop down flaps to reveal a sliding tray for your piano, put your rack unit into the cupboard on the bottom. If the top unit has glass doors, hang curtains inside to obscure the PC monitor and powered monitors. Go big on lots of shelves and alcoves - as you have already discovered, having one single 8'×4' shelf leads to a messy layout. Try also local auction houses, Facebook market place, and house clearance companies. Even if they don't want that sort of furniture, they might be willing to tell you about it.
  17. I've got this exact model. Had it(and used it A LOT) for at least 13 years and it's still completely intact. Cost a right lot of money (£250 at least) and I've never begrudged a penny of it. Snap it up, someone!
  18. Didn't it come with a mains psu? Or are you just experimenting with a power bank?
  19. It's nevertheless not Good Practice to use such machines whilst cycling. ...
  20. Thanks, it certainly has mojo 😎
  21. The really advanced drum machines can drop an entire beat, insert random fills and do an extra-loud snare hit when you bend down to adjust a pedal.
  22. Can't moan about that.
  23. Flowers - Miley Cyrus (Fun bass line)
  24. Joe is new to the forum but please deal with confidence! I’ve just bought a neck from him and it was a super easy transaction with great communication. Welcome to the community Joe!
  25. Weirdly I read this thread and looked up the bass, then went to a gig in the evening where one of the bassists was playing one. Looked cool!
  26. Spector NS Ethos 5 HP in immaculate condition. Gun metal grey high gloss finish with black hardware, upgraded pickups and pre amp with EMG 40P5 at neck position and EMG 40DC at bridge position with LHZ3 pre amp. EQ controls are volume, blend, bass and treble. The tuners have also been upgraded to Gotoh 350 Res-o-lite. This is a thru-neck bass. It comes with a Spector padded gig bag. I’ve had this bass around a year. It has no dings or marks, plays great and sounds fantastic. Only selling as a nasty bill has arrived and I need to get the money from somewhere. No trades thanks. Collection preferred, I live approximately 15 minutes from junctions 14 and 15 of the M1. I will ship however if the buyer wishes to arrange their own courier. The bass has its own gig bag and I have proper bass shipping boxes that it will be sent in. Please note, I took the photos myself and I am blind. I’ve tried to capture the bass as best I can so please bare that in mind whilst viewing them. Spector NS5 Ethos HP proof video.mov
