Anyone got more info about that rather fetching Peavey Unity? Google seems to not return much but apparently they're very nice basses indeed - £350 for a USA-made neck-thru in a very very snazzy gun metal grey colour seems like an absolute steal.

Celebrities who are famous for being famous and nothing else. Ive had the misfortune of meeting a few and my daughter met several when she worked in a posh restaurant. What a bunch of entitled butt holes. They expect everyone to know them and worship their talentless, cosmeticaly enhanced air headed wonder.

Martin bought my TE Elf. Faultless transaction and informed me of its safe arrival. Thanks again Martin 👍

Depending on your route, it is!

Quite shocked to hear the news. I saw the ads for his tour this week plus listened to the rockonteurs pod the other week where he sounded great. The Stone roses totally passed me by as I was too young but I remember hearing I wanna be adored for the first time in May 98 aged 16. (I know this as I was off to see the super furries for my first ever gig). My mate put it on the cd player in his bedroom and it just blew me away. He died a few years later so I always associate him with this album. Mani's sound and feel have always been a major influence. Always disliked Primal scream (again probably too young) but the first time I heard kill all hippies on the uni jukebox and when the bass kicks in around 1 min 36 I was converted. I dont know if its him playing that line on the record or if it was a sample ( I was intending on going to the tour and asking) but it just grooves and just brilliant.

I love MM Bongo's. I have a sparkly orange H/S 5-string. Really wish they still did the single-H 4-string versions. I've been looking for one of those for god knows how long!

Does anyone know what pickups these might be? From memory, I have a feeling they were Nordstrand but I'm not 100% sure. Just wondering if anyone recognises the SED/SEB writing on the pickup and grey and white wires?

Tuff Cab is Blue Aran's own brand and they're not stocking it, so it looks like one ingredient must be unobtanium. Edit: or Aldcrofts have stopped supplying them. At £72.50 for 5kg and no smaller quantity available, Aldcrofts aren't cheap though. https://www.aldcrofts.com/product-page/c64-31-matt-black-speaker-paint

This is a few months ago now.

Total loser. He’ll never amount to anything. I honestly don’t know why you’re wasting your time. 😝

All good / valid points gents! Genuine real-world question: how much of the sound and feel is going to be preserved (or lost!) depending on the amp & cab or FoH set-up that you are going through when playing live with a band? What is going to be a "necessary minimum" quality set-up to hear the lush tones this is producing in a live band mix?

Last year i' have completely re-build my right hand technique after seeing some vids from Anthony Jackson. I was needing something to easily switch from chords to single notes and feeling it the more natural possible. And then i also discovered how he used the pick. It was a revelation. It took me several months, little by little to change habits and feeling good with this new way: i play now with thumb, index and middle finger, without a real anchor: just my hand palm touching strings when i need to mute. A mix between Anthony Jackson and Mark Knopfler. And it works really well; in alternance with more conventional two fingers techniques with floating thumb anchoring on strings, and pick. It opens a lots of possibilities, as the sound is not the same when you play with the thumb or with the classic two fingers technic. And when you got the habit to not really anchor your hand, you can easily move the hand to change tone on the fly following what call the tune. All i can say is when you have few months of practice; you don't ask yourself what technic to use: it comes naturally with what tone you to achieve at this moment. Like muscle memory. And this 3 fingers "guitar" technic is really cool for playing chords in the middle of your bass line. You can also look at Hardien Feraud technic. It's kind of mixing all of that except the pick, inspired from Matt Garrisson & Anthony Jackson. This change has carried a lot of possibilities to work on dynamics and be able to change tone only with right hand.

Assuming the heteronormative there?
