Thank you!

Smile in a wave - Screaming Headless Torsos

Download, then edit to add the suffix '.mp4' to get it to play...

It took me quite a while to appreciate Haslip. That changed after transcribing some of the Gino Vannelli tracks. I should finish my Yellowjackets transcriptions...🙄 Thank you for the transcription(s)!

I actually have a Hydrasynth Explorer, the Modal would be in addition and with 61 keys

I guess this sort of view is what inspired @Al Krow’s question. I guess there is more chance of damage on a gig, but I tend to play anywhere between 30-90 mins a day at home, so not far off a common gig duration. My preference is to own mint or excellent condition instruments.

I'd agree with the above, there must be an issue with the unit. Complete aside, but how similar does the Mighty Plug in Aguilar mode sound to the MLD preamp in the same setting? I have the Mighty Plug, love it and particularly their version of the Aguilar Sim, but I was thinking about picking up the MLD too. If it sounds similar I think that will tip it!

A bit late, but Thursday's Jam Night was good. We were on shortly after 9 followed by the band I depped for the previous Saturday (Matt Guntrip and the Roadsters). Matt and said Roadsters hadn't heard us play before. A few of my mates also came down, some of them for the 1st time The pub manager told the guitarist he'd had a few people asking about us and offered us a Friday slot if we want one. So I guess we either played well, or played songs people liked, or both. My 1st Granddaughter (and also the neice of the drummer), was born on 4th May. Hence I managed to get this one on the set list. Intro to the song was along the lines of "Can you guess her name. No. No. No. Well there's a clue in this song". violet

Indeed, the best bass I bought for 260 quid will pay for a few holidays for my eldest when she gets her mitts on it (and I have no more use for it).

I'll happily forgo a fancy holiday for a lovely bass I will treasure for a life time. Each to their own eh?

Looks and sounds good Trevor - nice one 👍🏻

But are you talking about Batt-O-Meter by Keith McMillen or any multimeter? I tested them connected in the bass, in my American Deluxe Jazz Bass, and voltage was 14,60V, without disconnecting the batteries. I disconnected both, and the voltage was 8.17V in both (16.34V). I tested in American Elite Precision and connected 10,61V, disconnected 11.65V (5.80+5.85). I had to change this bass to pasive last Saturday. So, it's not a good idea to test batteries connected to active previous? I wanted to test them regularly without openning the tap. Is it not possible like in this video with a TRS jack? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kyUWE0JLpVU&t=371s Thanks a lot

Actually I think there's a small amount of cut in the bass control as well. About 80/20 IIRC. It's a "spirit of the law, letter of the law" thing. The control is actually boost only, but the whole circuit has a lot of bass loss, so you can still use the bass control to cut bass by not boosting as much, My point was just that it doesn't really matter where flat is, I'm still turning the controls until it sounds good.
