    They hang a bit strangely with the neck strap button in the original position as they tilt forwards (assuming the same thing happens as on the Hohner B2). I have seen a picture of one (must have been a Hohner B2 as it was natural finish) with the strap button moved to the shoulder but never managed to find the picture again. You may find more useful information here:

    This is literally true though! The change in mass is given by the m in E = mc², where E is the electrical energy. You must have some amazing kitchen scales, however.

    Thanks Mick. Yes, it's an odd one. I can only put it down to the brand being so small and "boutique".

    This 100%

    The new Thunderbirds are very good...not to mention they have more than two or three finish options...but I still think the Classic Pros are number one. Not to mention, I'm a big fan of the black hardware and pickups...had a Alpine White one years ago. (Yeah, one of those basses I should've never sold.)

    A 15 year old Merc C350. The Saga quote would seem to be for an Aston though. About twice the next highest quote.

    Members of the Hallé playing works by Steve Reich, joined for one of them by Jonny Greenwood on bass. Superb music, which you don’t get to hear performed so often. The bass part wasn’t technically difficult, but God forbid you lost your place 😁

    Hmmm...not the first time I've looked at this...even though I am without a Spector I really can't justify another bass. GLWTS

    Yes I discovered his family name was Peakman and knew that he had issues with drinking. I wasn't going to share that but it seems it's well known out there already. Here is an article I found in our local paper about Lorne from 7 years ago. A video too. https://www.plymouthherald.co.uk/news/meet-ex-homeless-man-who-1304951 It's all very sad that he is no longer with us and I don't doubt that although I never knew him, I'll think of him everytime I pick the guitar up 🙂

    I play the Bass (es) I want to play on a gig I don't own any "new" instruments and most have scars - marks The bass the punters talk about is the L2 Steinberger - and that's all about it's appearance

    Not heard of "chestnut" ..tho I guess it's quite a common horse colour. I've black on my best ( arcus Carbon ) bow and white on my spare (wooden dorfler) Not a deal of difference, but new hair and good rosin are useful...and when bowing spiros you need all the grip you can get. Amusing fact... Stallion hair is apparently grippier than mare hair as the mares piss on their tales which polishes out the grip.

    The Hulla band is playing it's self organised festival tomorrow and today has been spent setting up the stage and sound, laying out the grounds and generally creating a decent venue. The day started with a large cooked breakfast and concluded with a short soundcheck and fish 'n' chips. Tomorrow I'm playing in two of the 7 band line-up. I'm doing a support slot with a splinter group from the main band followed a couple of hours later by a headline set (well, we do all the work) with the Hulla band. We have a new, purpose built and permanent stage on the village green and it's made a huge difference to the look and feel of the site, not to mention a generous increase in stage space. It's been a long day today and it'll be another long one tomorrow as I'm there from 10.30 as assistant stage manager and the Hulla band's sets tend to go on until the last punter leaves. 🙂

    Of the 5 basses I own, I use different basses on different gigs for different reasons. And all of them bar one are difficult but not impossible to replace, and they're insured outside the house and in unlocked cars. Since I got my Wilcock Mullarkey its been my go-to for practice and my original/fun gigs (helps that its pink). However, for weddings I use my Serek Midwestern 5, as it does more conventional tones and I can get the low notes. My JMJ hasn't seen much action recently for no real reason other than I'm favouring the other two, but I have a couple of country gigs in August I've decided to use it for as it looks more the part. My Acinonyx is great but has such a unique sound I'm yet to find exactly where to use it. My Callowhill MPB 5 is truly irreplaceable, as Tim passed away shortly after I got it. I keep it mainly for sentimental reasons, as it has been superseded by the Serek as my main 5. I have some great basses and I enjoy playing them, so I find reasons to use them.

    HeadRush Core (v4.0.0) almost new with a new M-Audio EX-P Expression Pedal, a new Acrylic Protector, a new Thomann Producer Backpack and all the cables needed plus all printed manuals and original box. Everything is as new and was bought for the now defunct bass duet (S.B.K. presets you can see). There is a very tiny surface scratch on the screen, but it's almost impossible to photograph and doesn't impact its use at all. The new price of the whole is exactly €829.65 EUR (around £707) and can be yours for €550 EUR (around £470 GBP) shipping included in the countries listed below. NO TRADES! NON NEGOTIABLE PRICE! Asking price including fully insured shipping with tracking number, to your home, in these European countries (ask for other countries): Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France (excluding overseas territories), Germany, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Monaco, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden and United Kingdom: €550 EUR (£470 GBP is an approximation and I will only accept payment in Euros)!!! Shipping to the UK is of course possible and included in my asking price, but with additional customs charges (VAT + other taxes + courier costs), as the UK is now outside the EU, just ask. In perfect working order and in as new condition, except for that very tiny surface scratch on the screen. See the website for the specifications: https://www.headrushfx.com/products/core/index.html What you see is what you get ! Look carefully at the photos taken from different angles and lights to see the real condition. Here is the link to the 40 photos in high resolution: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1iiDRxJ9yh10nvvipC_s8R3M7DL3clTRi?usp=drive_link Due to severe back problems (67% officially disabled because of it) plus left and right shoulders injury, without mentioning a painful tendonitis on the right arm, I'm selling all the items I'm not using like this one. I've also considerably lowered the price for a quick sale. Don't hesitate to ask for more details, but, please, before asking read my ad first as the answer is certainly already in it!
