  1. Past hour
  2. I'm waiting for Glen Campbell's Galveston to be re-recorded to advertise heartburn medication
  3. Yep - that was me, a newbie and now proven idiot. I didn't realise that post was against the rules or I wouldn't have posted it. Anyway, I took the listing down as I had it titled wrong and I wanted to do a bit more research, I totally didn't realise it was anything out of the ordinary until it was pointed out to me. I'm not in a rush to get rid of it and not going to be an arsehole on the price either. Unfortunately I didn't see your advice before the post was deleted though thank you anyway. But I also now know not to accept £43!!
  4. I clearly didn't read the rules properly and I apologise!
  5. I meant the f-hole shape specifically, not the general idea of a long & thin soundhole. I have one of these guitars and it’s no problem. but this gives me the willies:
  6. Been wanting a Dimarzio DP122 for my Warmoth for yonks. Then I wussed out and even cooled off from getting a Jazz pup in the bridge position. Enter Bronco which I seem to have fallen in love with. wondering if I should route it and get two concentric pots vol/tone for each pup? There’s cons to adding money leading to a “you can’t polish a turd” conclusion. The force is strong….

  8. Price drop - £135 includes UK postage Hi, I’m selling my Aguilar Octamizer version 2. Well looked after and very little use. £185 price includes UK Postage. Here’s a bit of info from Aguilar: AN ALL-ANALOG OCTAVE PEDAL THAT CREATES A WIDE RANGE OF MUSICAL SOUNDS AN OCTAVE BELOW YOUR BASS SIGNAL. Modeled with old school and new school needs in mind, the Octamizer features independent volume controls for both the Clean and Octave sounds. This makes dialing in the exact amount of each a cinch. The two discrete signal paths also have their own tone controls that were specifically designed to enhance and expand their musical possibilities. The CLEAN TONE control uses a full spectrum tilt EQ, allowing for the boosting of treble while cutting bass or boosting of bass while cutting treble. This unique circuit allows you to create a clean sound that creates an octave doubling effect or to blend the sounds together for a great thick, snarky synth tone. *Pedal powered by universal 9-volt power supply only. Not included. Proprietary detector circuit for superior tracking Continuously variable multipole low-pass filter for Octave sound Dual filter architecture Full spectrum tilt EQ for clean sound Pedal powered by universal 9-volt power supply only. Not included. Cheers! Michael
  9. Here’s the dimensions straight from the Aguilar website. I think it’s in inches. Hope this helps! Cheers!
  10. Price drop to £360 with UK postage Hi Everyone, I’m selling my Sennheiser EW 100 G4 Wireless Instrument System with Ci1 (E Band) £380 - including UK postage I’ve used this once live and less than a handful of times in a pre-prod environment. Owned for a couple of years and it lived in a rack. Complete with all original parts, plus the extra rack components for mounting and a couple of extra right angle cables for the body pack. Cheers!
  11. Small crowd of smiling dancing people. Happy bar manager who asks when can we come back
  12. While waiting for the Anagram’s next firmware update for full MIDI support, I just got this Pirate MIDI Aero. Easy to setup and the editor is really nice. Currently using it to cycle on my 3 fave presets. Will program it later for more flexibility. Current state of the board.
  13. We're playing on Saturday, you'll love it.
  14. Maybe, but the rest was clearly a jape. It was a big AVR, I've had other Atmel chips usually in antistatic bags or boxes.
  15. I put a £20 set of flats on my MIM Jazz on Tuesday night and so far, they’re actually pretty good. I’m pleased to say that the bridge pickup didn’t instantly stop working the minute they were fitted too, and when I picked it up on Wednesday, it hadn’t turned into a P Bass 🙏
  16. Obviously can't speak to this specific example but you'd be surprised how much of that is manufacturer mandated - semiconductor suppliers are, to put it politely, a high maintenance bunch. A few of them dictate very specific terms to us, including that all products must be shipped in manufacturer supplied packaging - with waffle trays this sometimes means we have to stick one chip in a whole tray...
  17. Exactly how I feel. I find flats uncomfortable.
  18. I've bottled it. I'm taking a Jazz with LaBella flats on it. One of the guys who comes to the jam likes to do a bit of Jaco, and I can't get that tone out of a P. The P with rounds is now hung in the lounge, so it's going to get played every day until I feel it's right......or not.
  19. Today
  20. I'm off out being the house bass player at a funk jam tonight. I had toyed with the idea of taking a P bass with recently installed rounds (which I don't normally use), but have settled on a Jazz with LaBella flats, just because I don't get to play the jazz live so much, and it just sounds great with these strings on it. I agree with @Misdee too, amps have much more influence/affect over tone than they used to. Tonight I will be using a GK Legacy 800 into a Barefaced cab, and I'm very much looking forward to it.
  21. Is the song by The Jam on the advert 'Helicopter' by Bloc Party? Admittedly the first part of the opening riff is a complete rip off of 'Set The House Ablaze' by The Jam
  22. All very well to have high principles if you can afford them, but most of us have to make a living. Talk of "selling out" is usually uttered by those who don't have to worry about where their next penny is coming from. The equation of time/effort invested vs. income received works out heavily against most musicians (and artists generally). I made sure I always kept a day job, so I could pick and choose what I played. Fair play to anyone who manages to make a living out of art of any kind. Sure, I think stuff like Tracy Emin's unmade bed and similar is tripe, but she and people like her have beaten the odds and actually made a decent living out of her art, so fair play to them.
  23. Love that picture of the cavity. I am looking at mine and trying to figure where the pickup wires need to go. Looks like thet all go that first switch. Any way you could post better picture of the switch with white green red and block wires coming from the pickup so I can see where each goes ?
  24. You've also got to bear in mind, modern amps and cabs can make any bass with flats sound different to the olden days when valves and boomy cabs were the only option. There's an awful lot of hi-fi bass rigs about nowadays that can give a much more precise and detailed version of the flatwounds sound. That clarity, power and punch can negate some of the reasons why bassists ditched those strings in favour of roundwounds.
  25. Small update - frets have been levelled and recrowned. I think the neck did need it, the fret material didn't come off universally so I hope i made an improvement. Also, French polish arrived from @kodiakblair - legend, cheers!
  26. I actually prefer a direct sale, but it always depends. Maybe you can send me your ideas via pm.
