I think I'm creative. I definitely think describing myself as an 'artist' would be to raise people's expectations way too high though. -
Hey I found this on TalkBass. Amazing.

I just like making a lot of noise. -

JGSpector started following Trace Elliot Duel SMX compressor with power supply and spare

An old classic here, Trace Elliot Duel SMX compressor with 2 18V power supplies (one is brand new and has never been used as I bought it as a backup). Works great as a duel band compressor as you would expect. Obviously it’s quite old now so does show some signs of ware and tare. All working but it is quite noisy. It probably needs a good service but that’s not a skill set I have. I haven’t used it for quite some time but have powered it up and used it for a couple of hours over the weekend to make sure it works before listing. No trades thanks. Price includes shipping to locations within the UK. I took the photos myself and I am blind, so my apologies if they look like they were taken by a drunk person.

Disappointing new bass day...I would appreciate some opinions.

Oh, FFS - who? -
It's confusing; to be lifting all those lines as closely as he is, he has to have fairly high-level transcribing skills even if the actual playing of the lines might be massaged a little. It's a surprising amount of work to put in for something that's still passing off other people's work. I feel like most people able to do that probably have the skills come up with their own variations "in the style of", if they wanted to. So beyond the "what" and the "how", the "why?" part is puzzling me.

Thanks for the kind words! They are all gone except the one that a friendly bass chatter is trying out - they asked to try one right in the first batch - and they all went - so it was a priority to let him try it. (and he obv has first dibs) So potentially one more and thats it! (if anyone's feeling really masocistic I'll share the Gerbers)

It got a bit nasty last time they were on here so can see why the OP is so hesitant to name. -

I consider myself as a player. I would like to be a musician (like to be able to arrange and compose), if not an artist. The choices made earlier in my life prevent me from being a musician or more.

MTV - channels being put out of their misery.
fretmeister replied to NancyJohnson's topic in General Discussion
MTV and Kerrang TV were on all the time in my house. I miss when they were music channels - programming by other people is a good way of discovering new stuff rather than just me picking things I already know about. Just like the R1 Friday Rock Show years before. Used to get a cassette out and record it from the radio. Happy days! -

miles'tone replied to SumOne's topic in General Discussion
Good question @SumOne. My day job is working as a TA in a primary school, and my take on the matter is that everyone is born an artist. Every little kid I see is an artist as soon as the paints and paper or drums and ukuleles come out. Only a few of us refuse to stop. - Today

Well I looked at the pictures pretty closely and I’m not sure who it is, just glad I haven’t got anything coming from Europe at the moment -
This is when 3d printing can help. My knowledge of flared ports is even less than my knowledge of unflared ports. However it costs very little to print different versions out and try them and see. I've been playing with different ways to construct guitars and testing out options. TBH, they didn't work, but I now know they don't work. I can print up to 220mm in external diameter, the actual port would be somewhat less (190mm+), but I suspect that's a massive port. Thanks Rob
