  1. Past hour
  2. Good idea, I'll given a try in the morning . Thanks .
  3. Hi Liam. Is this still available? Have you got the floor traveler to show full specs? Thanks.
  4. Well, if no amount of settings tweaking can make them work satisfactorily then I guess they are "defective" and it's not your fault they've been insufficiently spec'ed... As for the iPad, I wouldn't even bother reporting it, IMO it's consumer electronics and out of the scope of any tier of this challenge, regardless of what you use it for.
  5. Well this beauty is still here despite a few offers. As much as I'm quite happy for it to remain with me, it just isn't getting played as I play 4 stringers mainly and this bass needs to become somebodies number one which I'm sure it will be…such a great quality ultra lightweight bass and I'll sweeten the deal at £1100 now…but in no rush to sell if I can find a reason to use it.
  6. I would have pretended that the existing IEMs were broken due to distorting and a replacement is necessary 😉 Also iPads have so many uses they can’t be classified as music gear
  7. Have you asked the Custom Shop itself ? May have to go through one of their UK retailers to get a reply, iirc Bass Direct are...
  8. Just letting people who came last year or the year before that this event is on for 2026 in the same village call. @GreeneKing @nekomatic @doomkeeper @vsmith1 @sifi2112 @Ruarl Thanks Rob
  9. I survived Jan! I‘ve sold a couple of gears and had purchasing power but thankfully I’ve not given in on any thing! My goal is to stick with just my Yamaha and Anagram. Focus on gear mileage and playing. Feb let’s go!!
  10. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 great result! 👍🏼
  11. I have had similar issues to this. Shocks, obviously low voltage, but annoyingly painful from a mic when recording vocals. I solved it by earthing the mic cable outer plug with a croc clip and a cable going outside buried in the garden about a foot deep. i also use an RCD plug on the main electric feed into my studio just in case. It has never tripped. on another similar issue, one of my guitars is annoyingly noisy (strat 1954 single coils) so I connect myself to the guitar with a tens machine stick pad and a cable/croc clip to the rear of the trem block. Keeps it earthed to me even if I am not touching the strings, and cuts out all the static noise in the winter when the air is dry.

  13. In great condition only used at home
  14. Thanks .. no idea re T/S specs ?
  15. Great day in the workshop today. @HeadlessBassist popped over to collect his bass and we finally got to hear it properly through my Blackstar Unity 500 combo. Up to now I’d only heard it through headphones and already thought it sounded sublime… but through the combo? Superb. Genuinely one of those moments where you stop playing and just look at each other. For a passive Jazz it sounded almost active — but there isn’t a battery anywhere near it. Big, thumpy low end, proper growl when you dig in, and a clarity that just sits right. Soloing the rear pickup was a bit of a revelation too — loads of honk and that almost-slap snap even when played fingerstyle. Properly responsive and alive. Hopefully @headlessbassist will add some sound clips at some point, as he’s much better at that stuff than I am 😄 I honestly think it shocked both of us how good it was — always a nice surprise when a build exceeds expectations, even when you’re hoping it will. Cracking way to end the day.
  16. Nice crowd! Daryl
  17. Cash is always quite interesting 😉
  18. In good condition just not using it anymore

  19. The room looks packed. Nice Daryl
  20. From what I’ve read, both Direct Drive & Belt Drive have pros & cons. Direct drive is more stable, but there can be vibrations from the motor. Belt drive reduces motor vibration, but can be less stable (especially if the belt hasn’t been changed for a while. Technics’ ΔΣ-Drive on the GR2 & G models are coreless, which they say is “designed to seamlessly eliminate even the tiniest vibrations originating from the motor.”, so it should be the best of both worlds.🙂
  21. Possibly for the first time in over 5 years, no purchases for me in Jan, not through lack of trying though - I just haven't found anything that made me need it.
  22. Offers around £100 will be accepted.
  23. Today
  24. Same here, in my Kentish local authority. I think that Thames Water also give us a two-month payment holiday too. I may need to buy a better set of in-ears Replacing my Linsoul ZS10s with some Shure AONIC 215 Wired earbuds. I find that the ZS10s distort when I give the B string some welly, whereas the Shures that I borrowed for a professional gig, were clear and strong. T2 fail? I also want an ipad, to run Song Select, because paper printouts don't really work in my current gig. T2 fail again?
