Beep Purple

Could just have used a bolt, washer and nut for added security.

I love mine. It's so eady to play and dounds so good it does any gig where I want a stress free time. Suits Fender 7250 nickel plated strings really well. I spent a good while tweaking the relicing to look more natural and checked it with freezer spray. Bought as a cheap way to get a great early-60s style bass. Relic/signature were not sought but aren't an issue, in fact I love the relaxed played-in feel.

Tbh the clear guard is spoiling a lovely bass imho. It looks as if the protective film is still on it... peel it off and it could look much better. A pearloid one could look good on that.

Our singer will not use IEMs.

But let’s not forget the “Crap fake capacitor scandal “ a few years ago. Where copy’s of Nichicon and Elna and Rubycon and Panasonic were flooding the market that caused no end of issues…that hasn’t helped consumer confidence

I surrender! I think the 150k value makes it particularly difficult, I can find all the elements but not in the same unit. If I was doing this I would probably use a long plastic shaft pot and fit a tube around the shaft to help support it. Sorry I can't help

I'm currently about half-way through the learning rhythm notation section of that book, and I agree. I've tried to learn sheet music a few times but it's never really clicked before. I got this book on the good recommendation of various folks on here.

@warwickhunt what have you got incoming? And what's your stage rig? How are you amping it?

Reverends are really cool. As a big Mike Watt fan, I'd love to get a Wattplower one day! Has anyone used one?

That’s the one I used too. Brilliant book.

It would be, and would address any minor hearing issues as he could have a personalised eq for his monitoring. John's problem is mainly that his singer will have no truck with modernity, I think having monitors at all was an innovation.

I had the chance to do something quite different last night, and take part in a poetry jam/workshop. This involved writing a short poem (with guidance from an experienced writer), and then covering bass duties in a jam band while everyone took turns to deliver their poems in a spoken-word-over-music format. Great fun!

Hey peeps, looking to get a looper and my analysis paralysis syndrome is kicking in. Has anyone used the ditto, ditto+, ditto x2 or boss rc5? If so how do they compare. I want the looper from creating ideas and practising. Not bought one before and I really think a looper will suit my creativity. The ditto+ seems cool as you can loads drums on the device and also save them. I like the idea of the ditto x2 with the two button for stop and start. Never used one so would love some input. cheers
