About as much as moving the volume control 2-3mm I reckon.

Interested to know the difference in actual volume you would hear if you played a 500w class D amp into a 8ohm cab compared to same cab but 4ohms ? If I’m correct the amp would give out roughly half IE 250W and to be twice as loud audibly you would need 2500W which of course is silly for an amp ! I have a MarkBass MB58R 122 8ohm cab rated 800W and if this cab was say a 4ohm cab would it really sound louder even though amp can give it 500w at 4ohms ??

Will give it a think

The only single cut bass I've owned and for some unknown reason sold on! I can't say whether the single cut design made it better / worse / different from a standard bass, it was just overall really really good.

Good idea, a few packs of strings and some strapons straps would be cool.

I’ve been working on Teen Town by Weather Report mainly just for the challenge, and it’s doing exactly what I hoped.

Oof. That's me told. Its even got a big headline - For those that CBA to read... or just want a quick answer... or dealing with Myth #1 - IEMs are expensive:

Here's my single cut Safran semi acoustic. Lovely bas with an beautifull "woody"and deep sound. It has a piezo in the bridge and a magnetic PU under the fretboard. Just volume and a balance (John East MPM preamp). Due to the singlecut it has an enormous sustain!

Nice one, I depped with a mate's Blondie trib many moons ago and it was great fun. The basslines are awesome, and fabulous things to play. The only thing I didn't like was wearing my spiky wig. A bit too sweaty betty for my liking.

The mother of my two daughters was a massive Blondie fan and had a crush on Nigel. Then she met another bass player called Nigel.....

I've been using keyboard shortcuts to open and switch between programs since having multiple programs open simultaneously became possible with the introduction of System 7 (I could never get MultiFinder in System 6 to work reliably enough) so the commands required have become ingrained over the last 35 years.

Oh, this is the guy I spent a lot of time talking with and demonstrating the pedal to at the booth in 2024.

Browsing around the Bass Gallery website, I happened across an Antbass Pharoah: https://thebassgallery.com/collections/bass/products/antbass Headless neck-through bass - just the thing to pique my interest. But only four strings. So I set off on a quest to find out about Antbass, which came to a very rapid conclusion when there was absolutely no sign of them on the internet except for this very bass. Does anyone happen to know who, what, when, and possibly why? Judging by the photos, it has a distinctly used (but looked after) air to it, and the brass cover which I assume conceals the truss rod access looks a few years old.
