I had a wee go at this today - almost had a like modulation type sound

Connected By Love - Jack White

Turns out I completely misremembered and was thinking of a different case! That said, this is mine and it is different…it’s the ‘plush’ type G&G made. No fender logo on the front.

We packed the Conny at Thurmaston - standing room only, so happy with that. Plenty of dancing going on too. We even got complaints from staff who were on a night off, but had to help out because it was so busy 😂 I have pretty much settled on the Stingish bass as it's now just so comfortable to play, and I think I prefer a 2-band pre tbh. The Rumble v3 500 combo certainly isn't going anywhere. Even the black DMs are getting to be standard gig equipment. Just the one gig this weekend. I quite like a slower start to the year after all the December/Christmas/NYE rush just gone.

Great stuff mate. I'm not going to look at it until I've finished mine. I have to be honest, I'm finding it really tough. There's some old classics in mine and some contemporary. I keep looking at the list thinking I cannot put that in the same list as that. Driving me a bit nuts to be honest.

Hi Freddie, as luck would have it, I’ve still got your old Elite and I picked up an as new condition American Professional 2 in a trade over the last few days. In short, they’re very similar thickness from fingers to thumb, and maybe the Pro II feels marginally wider, but it’s mainly down to the Elite’s compound radius that makes it feel a fraction more rounded and that little touch sleeker. The Pro II neck is very nice to play on, and doesn’t slow me down at all compared to the Elite.

Wired For Sound - Cliff Richard

There are others, nut is broken and it's been shimmed with cardboard 😎

These are a Chicago Music Exchange / Andertons exclusive, and indeed somewhat limited. And thank god! That Lavender Haze sure isn't pretty.

I saw the Facebook post and instantly thought that's a @Jabba_the_gut bass, then the post disappeared as they do on Facebook. The 'R' logo is definitely his, and his work is exceptional.

Hi all, Has anyone had any experience with any Japanese made Dragonfly/Harry’s Engineering basses?

Another busy day for “Letters He Left” - 3 songs tracked…in 10 hours. @Dankologyand “that” bass were mega.

That shouldn't be how it's wired. I've had three of these, and they were volume, tone, preamp gain and 3-band EQ, so you could boost or cut the EQ curve without having to change 3 knobs, and so you could match the output to the passive level. There is no pickup balance, only the 3-way switch. The gain knob only works in active mode, obviously.

We gave it a good go today. Started at 9.30 (me) and we set the drums up and @Dankologyarrived around 11 as planned. 3 full tracks, aside from embellishments and vocals. decent days work - finished at 7.30pm.

First gig of the year last night. Bluesfire at the Bush. Couple of mates of the guitarist and the drummerxs brother in, plus several familiar faces. Free pint of Guinness. Had a 'bucket' of sweet potato fries 🤗 one day I'll get there early enough to sample their pizza. Experimented with a bit of mid boost, and I got positive comments on the tone. AVII, Orange Terror and AT212 slim. A good gig but I had the wrong inserts in my earplugs for the first set, so took them out after two songs. Used the right ones for set two. Made a few fluffs but nothing too bad. My technique has improved a little recently, made a few changes to what I play. Got a couple of compliments 😁 Back at 1pm 😴
