    Thanks, Mokl. I was running two as a vertical stack – best live sound I've ever had!

    Fair enough - that's a highly specific requirement, using it for a guide bass track. If you plan on possibly keeping a take, I'd personally still choose a proper mic rather than a DPA as a bass simply sounds much better on a recording when it's not close mic'ed. IME - YMMV

    I guess if it had a companion receiver unit, you could use it as a wireless too? That could be cool. Combine it with a wireless footswitch and you'd have a fully wireless rig.

    I've got confimration that Royal Mail will be with you at some point tomorrow. They'll bring a label and just stick it on the case and it'll be fine. (I had one delivered this way last week)

    I had the stereo and sold it. Regretted it and bought the mono. It really is the Swiss Army knife of amp world. I’ve got a Markbass Evo 1 to try out at the moment which basically, has the Multiamp amps and effects but has two independent channels, which is exactly what I need. I think it’s what I’ve been looking for, for a long time 😁

    £50 price reduction Trades - X Touch Universal. Try me with anything, I can only say no 😁 Great bass in good condition, comes with hard case. Short scale. Not a heavy bass. Plays well. Not really any damage to speak of. There’s a little bit at the top of the headstock (photographed) but looks much worse than it actually is. I’ve removed the strap lock pins and replaced them with the originals that were odd when I got it. The case is old but fully function and all the clasps work. Can post at buyers expense or can be collected from BB22SH Any questions please ask.

    Nah, I bet he overplayed a mush of too many notes on it 😜

    He didn't, but he got the proof of concept right, and pretty much nailed it the 2nd time.

    There are many branches of Physics, and some can be detrimental where understanding acoustics is concerned. The main obstacle for most, irrespective of their level of education, is realizing that sound waves and light or radio frequency waves are totally different in how they function. Light waves in particular are easy to comprehend, because you can see them. There is almost nothing intuitive about how sound waves work, and even at the post-graduate level there are few courses of study available. One very good source is here: https://blog.soton.ac.uk/soundwaves/

    Sure!! Here are a couple. Sadly, no.... they do not glow in the dark. 😆

    The quick recording aspect is about being able to pick up the bass in the control and play along with a band that's in the live room. Something that stays in position relative to the bass, doesn't require placing a mic stand in the middle of a busy control room, and is positioned close enough to the bass that it can handle spill from the studio monitors without too much trouble. In other words, something that requires minimal extra effort on top of my work as a recording engineer, but still gives decent results. Thanks for the comments all - the DPA fits the bill for now, since we already have them.

    Just giving this a wee bump. Wouldn’t mind another crack at the Capo as I think it might be a good fit for my P with rounds as long as I’m not trying to make it sound vintage/tubey.

    @Sté Thanks for this. So are IEM's the same as 'ordinary' in ear headphones? Rob

    This all day long. There's an Andertons video where they compare some semi-hollows including the Warwick Star and Epiphone Jack Cassady, some others too I think... That should give you a good idea of the possible sounds. I had an Epiphone JC and found it really versatile, great bass.

    I bought the t.bone EP 4 (from thomann) cause i was needed some in-ear to sub a gig with an all equipped band. And i can say that for the price i've paid, those ones are very good, comfortable to use. Bass sound is really present and nice. I now use it at home with my mighty plug mp-2 and it works perfectly.

    The review says it all: comprehensive, US published and hard to find. Price is UK posted, unread condition. Now £16. EVEN LOWER! £14 posted. Times And Seasons - The Rise and Fall and Rise of the Zombies Robin Platts HoZac Books, $31.99 356 pages Classic British pop, expertly chronicled Few books on the Zombies exist, but theirs is a story worth telling. And it's predictable that, given their Stateside star status, this quintessentially English quintet of She's Not There and Tell He No fame should be chronicled on an American imprint. The band only hung up its touring shoes last year after leader/keyboardist Rod Argent's stroke, but the work he and singer Colin Blunstone created after their reunion in 2001 - the years since 1968 being silent, in a Zombies sense - are also covered in detail by author Platts. The band always had a youthful camaraderie, having come together at high school, and that comes over faithfully in this account of their heyday - plus a long tail that details their subsequent musical careers. While Blunstone went solo and Argent created an eponymous prog band (of God Gave Rock And Roll To You fame), guitarist Paul Atkinson went behind the scenes and signed Abba to CBS - a feather in anyone's cap. Detail is forensic without being stifling. If the layout is a trifle fanzine-y, the integration of illustrative material like press cuttings and photos with the text helps make this an easy read. And the urge to play the music, always the sign of a good book, is irresistible.

    I didn't mean it in a contrary way. Tone of voice often doesn't come across well over the internet. I'm interested in what you think they're missing on this.
