Because they're dangerous, unpredictable, difficult to control, at the mercy of the tides, expensive, slow, fun to helm and it's difficult to get them to change course. -
Not unusual. I've seen it where at the end of the night the staff has no clue about settling up with the band. If the head boss man isn't there, usually there's an envelope under the cash drawer. Daryl

According to my Vernier it's 44.4mm. -
Pretty much 1kg less than the new bass! -

Interesting. Over here I'd have to say the booking folks couldn't care less what the patrons think about bands Daryl
-
I think the other element we have to consider is, a lot of these venues change management every other week. Daryl

Also turned up to a gig where there was a new manager who had 'lost' our contact details. He said they weren't doing our type of band anymore but we could play. The locals loved it and said they didn't like the new manager (who has since gone and the pub is now doing what its been well known for over the last 20+ years). Weird thing was, he said he could see the bands that were playing at the pub, on Lemonrock. Obviously not able to use Facebook or google.

Yep around during the days and most evenings -

I've played gigs where the manager who booked us hasn't even been there on the night. The locals have quite a large say in whether bands get rebooked, regardless of how many people you bring along. One of my locals was literally held ransom by the locals, it felt uncomfortable for visitors, they had a lot of influence on what beer was on tap, what music was played etc, but there weren't enough of them to keep the pub running. Quite short sighted of the landlord not to get on top of it.

1 year since I got my Warwick Fortress Flashback 5 - it is a very well made instrument - I like it a lot more than I though I would - it is a top bass guitar for trying out pedals - replacing the nut was a good idea by the luthier I use - it's a heavy instrument but balance well standing , I just need a way better strap - strap lock So overall quite happy with this

This is typical of what happens with new management. It was nice that you guys pulled the plug on them before they pulled it on you. We have a great relationship The Harley Motor Restaurant. We get on great with the staff and manager, comped drinks and food. However, the manager has absolutely nothing to do with the bookings. It's done by a 3rd party agency that could turn on as at anytime for any reason. Daryl

The best guitar stand is a nice big speaker cab where you can rest your P bass, with 2 equidistant strap buttons on the base, against it. But that is pretty niche.

What are your irrational prejudices? I have some bonkers ones...

Turdburst actually refers to those finished where cruddy browns that face into slightly less cruddy browns or sometimes orange and yellow for some inexplicable reason. But let's not split hairs as they're equally appalling. Antigua burst is more like a snapshot of an engorged bubo exploding. -
It is a K+M. It will work. But that picture makes it super attractive.

Just as a side note,why are Boats always female. -
Always fancied one of the early VM Jazz Vs with the Duncan Designed pickups, have those in my fretless and think they sound great.

Impressive work, Neep. As for the cable run, see above.

I remember seeing a video of Yes with Chris playing that bass, it sounded just like when he played a Ric.
