I did contact Epifani a couple of days ago, obviously it's the week end, etc.. but i'm on fire to get it done so, i'm just trying to hasten things. Unfortunately in my country there is no Epifani importer but my tech is super duper good but he would like to have a look at the schematics before tackling the job The use of it wasn't unauthorised, the guy was/is just plain dumb - upon seeing a speaker cable connected to my amp he still went ahead and connected the other amp to the cab because.. errr.... that's what you do ! I didn't bother asking him to pay, can't be bothered wasting time, getting nervous or listen to some stupid excuses, however from now on NO ONE will be allowed to use it and can start carrying back and forth their own 30 kg cabs. Needless to say, every bass player that rehearses there now loves him.....

Yes that might just work 👍 I missed the original post so I'll tag a couple of other "locals" who might be interested @Yan_Huriey@jig@ToneFree@woodyratm Yes I did a couple of charity gigs and a number of jam nights with him. Lovely guy and very talented. When he came back to Aberdeen he played in the Gerry Jablonski Band with our very own @jig

The 99° degree weather was not good. Daryl

Only 2 of my electric basses ( and an acoustic bass and a viola da gamba) have those. I find they make things more difficult tbh. We are!!! Don't go!!!

Sit down. Eases the problem with weight and you're closer to the floor so better chance of reading the setlist and seeing which patch you're on.

Did you do the Burn era? IMHO one of the best Rick albums ever and the best DP

Yes but your taste levels in this photo veer more “normal” than “guitard-deviant”

Apparently according to the description it has 20 frets. Do they come in a separate bag? If you happen to have another neck, its fine for £1.75!

I have fond memories of trying a red classic 50s p bass in pmt Leeds and slightly less fond memories of having to decline

It’s still here @Geek99

I really enjoyed the set, a fantastic back catalogue of Police and solo Sting material to choose from, three damn good musicians, dressed in just jeans and tee shirts (no fancy stage clothing), no backdrop, just their back line and stage lighting.

Well, it came across as sarcastic, but I stand corrected.

Well done Phoebe

Almost tempting for £1.75. If it was a 5 I'd have it. £15 tops though. TBF, it's Ebay's definition of "used", and Ebay's boilerplate description text.

Sorry - my sadism gene is malformed i did think however that it might be fun to prank future archaeologists by using an axe to cut off their feet and put them near their heads so that maybe the archaeologists could form a theory of the feet being somehow involved in the afterlife journey

The USB device I got from AliExpress was generating lots of extraneous noise so I returned it (instant refund). I'm trying a Behringer UM2 instead which seems more promising.

It really is a bit of a brain-melt moment when you’re browsing through Amazon Prime for something to watch and you happen across a Jeff Beck live video with the guy you who hosts your jam night playing in the band - the amazing Nicolas Meier on guitar! Mind blowing stuff!

What are you, an amateur? You make them dig the hole first, man. Jeez....

By the time I was playing gear costing £1k plus I had discovered bass chat and was able to trade my way through some fairly nice gear. I might have saved a little money had shops stocked similar instruments to try first but there’s just so much choice out there even the likes of bass direct, bass bros and the bass gallery can’t stock it all. I did try a very nice Dakota custom shop jazz bass in a PMT once. It was a thing of beauty but the £2.5k price tag was a little heavy, and I do wonder how many of those high margin/ high cost items they tended to sell in stores vs online.

Just don’t mention them. It saves on tar and feathers. And matches and shovels. And time spent digging holes in remote locations
