    Right - I've run it past Chordify a few times, I've re-read Terry M's and Burns-bass posts (thank you both), and I've tried to trust my non-musical cloth ears. This is what I've come up with so far. Three main things to check - 2nd bar in intro (Cm? Bbm?), Bridge chords, and last bar in chord sequence after the key change (G# or B?) Here goes - please be gentle - my music theory is very limited, as you'll see. Intro: |Cm |Bbm | F | G# G | Verses and chorus: | Cm |Cm |F | G# G | Bridge: |E | E |A |A |E |E |A |A |D |D |G |C# Thereafter: |C# |C# |F# |A G# |

    I think the only way to really combat it as old person is to completely change your daily behaviour and habits.. which isn't easy. ie for eg, Park as far from the shops as possible and carry heavy shopping. Get out of bed and literally yomp around the house like a crazy person swinging arms and stuff... yes its all crazy but I think it works....In a nutshell. Move more.

    IME Rotosound strings "go off" even if they are just sat in their packets on the rack in the musical instrument store. Either switch to a different brand, or only buy Rotosound strings direct from Rotosound at their stand at a music instrument show and fit them within a couple of weeks of purchase.

    I am guessing that one of the problems is that so much music nowadays is manufactured on a software platform of some description by people who may not even be able to play any instruments let alone a bass. Lowest common denominator is a single not drone/ thump. Older music was produced when there was more money around to pay musicians to perform (and to contribute ideas) instead of relying on sequencers and samples etc.

    I use a One10 at home. Does the job perfectly.

    I Don't think posts in 'Off Topic' or the Marketplace count towards your total, so get stuck in!
  15. Undertone
    Great price for one of these, when you can find one in the UK at all!

    I think harsh is just not proper FRFR. These sound just… quality.

    Only 2 according to your profile. Welcome aboard. Post a Hello/ Hi on the introductions forum, and reply to a few threads. Just join in generally. Then all of a sudden you'll have thousands of posts of random rubbish and no friends in real life other than those you meet at bass bashes. And if you stray into the Marketplace then you'll also have no money and a reputation for meeting strange men and women in supermarket car parks up and down the country. Don't ask how I know... 😅

    Potentially, I'm lucky enough to have a few from both sides of this particular fence. I have a few ACGs Alan made for me and of course Binky the 10 string Bee Bass. I also have some I've bought well under their market value that I doubt I'll ever sell and some I've bought for about their market value as I wanted to try it but also didn't want to buy new and loose a chuck after the initial purchase. 'Orses for Courses as they say!

    PMT

    Stu-khag replied to NigeJ's topic in General Discussion

    Had a similar experience with PMT in Cardiff. Some of the staff had been extremely helpful over the years though. Must be quite soul destroying working in a music shop sometimes. Really feel for them and its sad that only one music shop in the centre of cardiff now. Heard good things about Moto music on the outskirts but all a bit too high end for the likes of me. A strings in Treforest are absolutely fantastic. Looking forward to seeing their new shop also. I dont think I would deal with any other shops these days. Generally they are really competitive with their pricing but they also quality check over the instruments and set them up so for that Im willing to pay extra anyway. Really nice staff as well.

    Absolutely 100%. A few years ago, I bought a bass on BC that I then realised had a bowed neck after I tried to (unsuccessfully) lower the action to my liking. The seller not only refused to take it back but completely denied there was anything wrong with it because they'd just had it set up. Which either makes his luthier inexperienced/incompetent or the seller an out-and-out liar. It's only when things go wrong that you find out people's true character. My luthier managed to straighten it with heating and clamping, but I then couldn't stand the sight of it so sold it on eBay. Obviously, detailing the problem and remedial action. Lost a lot of money on it and made me very wary of buying basses here. So huge kudos to @reggieboomboom, you're one of the good ones.

    I used to commute to Birmingham, each spring I had this odd experience where my eyes would water as I was driving down the M42 for a month or so. After several years I eventually realised it was hay-fever... or more likely tree pollen. I still get a bit of it but the odd thing is if I take a single antihistamine tablet, it pretty much goes away until the next year.

  27. soulstar89
    Hey peeps, hope everyone is well and catching a tan in this weather lol. I am looking for a compact cab that will compliment the tone hammer. I’m looking for a compact size. The first one that comes to mind is the barefaced one10. Is there any others anyone could recommend for around that price range or cheaper ( it going to be for jamming at home with the misses who plays piano)?. I play a pbass Asian ash with maple fretboard. Chrome flats or dead rotosounds and playing style is all fingerstyle. I LOVE the ashdown abm evo head but it’s over kill atm for home I feel. cheers

    You're not going to look like Arnie unless you eat loads of protein, lift massive weights all day. The farmers walk is the two handed version of the suitcase carry. I farmers walk my 2 cabs in, otherwise most of the stuff carried in is either a suitcase carry or 'box carry' - which is essentially a goblet squat and carry.

    I now have a bunch of 0.047uF capacitors so I can build a new loom for my mini p-bass. I went for 400v metallised polyester film. As these are a darker colour than the orange drops I have used in outher builds I wonder whether they'll sound any darker?

    So I guess the diffrence is if you are buying something for an investment or an instrument to play
