That's good to know Phil, thanks! Not that I'm likely to use it at a gig, but in our practice room, while imagining I am a rock goddess , that is another matter! 😊 Thanks too for all the other replies, I'll likely just set it to a mode with a single RGB value for the whole bar for now, to use at a colour wash at gigs. As Phil says, if I like it I'll get another for our other speaker stand.

I'm in love with my car - Queen

I think he's great. And he can play when he shows you. But he's part of a bigger picture of the way Bass playing with Instagram YouTube AI and music in general is traveling.. and I don't like it.. This ain't a 90's Freddie Washington' groove lessons DVD anymore..

Well our afternoon gig started off with a 90min drive. On arrival drummer and PA guy were already set up so that was a bonus. Doors open 1pm, nobody there, no queue, no-one in the hallway outside. Oh well we'll still go for it at 2pm. Paid rehearsal. Then 2 people appeared at 1:15pm and then some more and by 1:30pm the organiser asked us to push it back but PA guy had a hire on at night so we said only by 30mins as we had a gig later that night. Wee white lie but at 2pm it started to get busier. By the time we went on at 2:30pm we had around 50-60 folks but its a big venue so it didn't look overly busy but they were all up for a great party afternoon. People just kept coming in even during the 2nd set folks were still arriving. I think we must have managed about 80 people for 2nd set. Dancers on most songs and full floor for the last 4-5 songs so that was good. Turned out quite an enjoyable afternoon and £150 quid in my pocket so that was nice. Stopped for an Indian takeaway on way home too. Now i'm sitting watching Mr Mercedes on Netflix with a full satisfied tummy. Diet finishes tomorrow. Target reached last week at 12st. but i'm gagging for a wee dram after tomorrow. Usual gear for me. Sandberg MarloweDK - Shure GLXD - Keeley Bassist comp - HB WB-100 - BF212 cab. Dave

Yes, as alluded to a few posts later. I should state my original post was more musing than anything else tbh

Looking for a ready made harness, not individual pots.

Sad and Happy thoughts but go with the drams being the happy one. Enjoy. Dave

Nope it appears but when i click to play it goes into a fault that Faceache are currently working on. Had this with quite a few things now including our own band links. Dave

Driving Home for Christmas - Chris Rea

You can use Fiverr (an online marketplace). I’ve used it for some cheap branded animations for a charity and it was fine. The prices are low, but many of the people there are fantastically well qualified. Use reviews as a guide and offer a generous tip if they do good work. You’ll likely be surprised at what you can get for your cash!

Ella always sounds great and this is pretty cool but have you heard the Marsalis version with Jon Hendriks (same record as Winter Wonderland)?

I've always been quite minimal: I had an overdrive for solos, and a fuzz for the odd song that needed it. The "signature sound," such as it was, was a Gibson-style bass into a valve head. And since you asked for clips - this one features the OD (Ibanez Bass Tubescreamer - skip to 1.55 for the bass solo): https://youtu.be/WsWxzQfo_1s?si=x5iqbWaKD2cdhyd2 ...and this one features the fuzz (EHX Bass Big Muff): https://youtu.be/6SBOchDGZ7E?si=nxHp5-vvcLm6IbQI

I’m delighted to start a feedback thread for Marcus who bought an Eich combo from me. He was an absolute pleasure to exchange messages with and also, an absolute pleasure to meet in person and chat all things bass! He kept me fully informed of his journey whilst travelling to meet in a supermarket car park and arrived bang on time! Deal with in total confidence!

I have one in black, brilliant bass but swapped out the pickup for a emg gzr.

Have to look at that Winter Wonderland, although I am not so much into Xmas carols, because of that saccharin... Our band's keys decided we need to play this. First trials became a chore. Not a prima vista for me, but a doable and fun song. If someone wants the bass part, I can share the pdf.
