The JB-2 is an interesting choice because it sits right at the intersection of affordability, ease of modification, decent quality, and attractive design, which is why many long-time bass enthusiasts still appreciate it despite not being as famous as Fender or Squier.

Oops, already done

Just like a good bassist 👍

I think Rean are made for Neutric anyway. Legally you need to give the retailer a chnce to repair faulty goods and if Andertons are offering a courtesy cab/PA then I think they are playing fair. Hope you sort the problem, not one I've come across before.

The CK61 is a very reasonable choice for pub/bar performances: lightweight, compact, quick to start up, good enough piano/EP/organ sounds, intuitive interface, multiple connection ports, easy split/layer, and priced right within your desired £750 range. The biggest drawback is the smaller-than-standard piano keys, which can feel strange when switching between keyboards, but at this price point, there are almost no other keyboards that are both fully featured, lightweight, and have larger keys. Therefore, the CK61 remains the most suitable choice for your performance needs.

The gear was interesting on that video, but the bass faces were hilarious!

I'm the newbie and there's quite a few things above that on the list of things to be having chats about that will refine the set. Things are really positive and moving forward, I need to be selective and focus. I feel your pain, I was going to ask if these are ongoing issues or whether you've joined a band who have been cheerfully getting it wrong for years but I think I know the answer. This is the years of playing together with mistakes accumulating and nobody listening to the originals. Youve probably got a guitarist (usually the guitarist) who thinks learning a song is just knowing the chords to verse and chorus. I reckon a lot of these 'simplifications' are down to a rehearsal 20 years ago where someone turned up under prepared and blagged their way through it and blagged their way through the song covering up their lack of preparation by convincing the rest of the band that 'this is better'. However you are being the grow up. The audience are probably not noticing and having a good time and I'd settle for some nice people and regular gigs over arguing an ending or guitar solo. Well I would nowadays

Hi Chaz, from what you've introduced yourself, you sound like a real multi-talented person. Someone who plays bass with Sterling Ray4s, owns a six-string guitar, co-founded a chili sauce brand, and even made it onto Masterchef – that's a really interesting combination!

Morning everyone, It's 365 days since Nick passed. I wanted to share my favourite photo of him and thank you all for your support in 2025. He gave us 19710 days of LOVE, LAUGHS and RIFFS ... Shine on brother 💫🎸😇💚🤟

It’s polyurethane sprayed on.

Passive tone stack is not everyone's cup of tea. When nationally flat is bass 2, mids 10, treble 2. there isn't a lot of room to maneuver.

They canceled the Legion Hall fish fry acoustic gig this Friday due to cold weather. Daryl

It's also advisable to resize your pictures so they're a reasonable file size, if you haven't already done that - 4MB pictures will rapidly eat up your allowance. And if you give them fairly meaningful names, and need to reuse the pictures, you can use "Other Media" | "Insert existing attachment" to do that.

There's a song about that. "Mustang Sarnie".

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).

Enjoyed watching this. There's quite a lot on here that BC'ers have been buying and liking!
