  1. Past hour
  2. It is a good size Daryl and must be able to hold 200-250 people i reckon. A decent small concert venue. I like playing it because we have plenty of stage space. Twice we've played it and the audience were great both times. Not sure i've ever played on a concrete stage. To be fair the bass cab was sitting directly on stage with no gramma pad this time and it wasn't boomy in any way at all. I know the drummer was using twin floor toms tuned low and maybe it was down to a lack of damping but not sure why it wasn't noticed at sound check. Dave
  3. Cheers for the input. Noob question but how do you find the visual loop indicator better compared paired to say the basic ditto?
  4. By God! That was a long time ago.
  5. Great to hear there's good news out there.
  6. Weren’t they doing the mother fooger envelope filter? That had been rumoured for a few years now
  7. The room looks big and it looks like you had a good size crowd. I get the hollow wooden stage issue. My issue has always been playing on concrete stages. Very cold and medicinal. Daryl
  8. Paul Powell is a great player, his Mr Exe album is well worth a listen
  9. Great news, and a great bass. You can change the thread title to *FOUND!* 😁
  10. According to my Vernier it's 44.4mm.
  11. I have a sterling, it plays amazing but it’s on the heavy side! A lighter sterling would be a nice addition!
  12. A little update to my board which is mostly for fretless. A new addition is the Fender Bassman Driver which just adds a bit of grit. It's an awesome pedal and is perfect to cut through at certain points. The pedalboard is tight for space and not sure what I'm going to do when I get my hands on a MXR Bass Synth pedal. From right to left. 1. TC Electronic Tuner 2. Boss OC5 Octave 3. Fender Bassman Driver 4. Harley Benton CH5 Chorus (Best chorus I've ever had) 5. Walrus Audio Slo Reverb 6. Mooer Ambience A7 Reverb 7. Ampeg Opto Compressor 8. Sansamp BDDI v2 Preamp
  13. But if there must be a PG, then I'd rather it was clear over a woodgrain.
  14. A bit of an unusual one! I bought this bass made from high quality parts from the Bass Gallery for just shy of £800 (in old money 😆) a few years ago. - Shuker Custom Neck - 33” scale, rock maple, satin finish (slightly worn), 2mm side dots, carbon fibre reinforcement, two way truss rod, spalt rosewood fingerboard, flat radius, slight asymmetric carve, medium, Stainless Steel Frets - 38.5mm Graphite Nut - Hipshot D-Tuner - worn Fender Jazz Body - 2 x Di Marzio DP 149 Ultra Jazz Pickups (hum-cancelling) - Pickups Mounted In Adjustable Rosewood Ramp (flat radius/profile to match the fingerboard) - Babicz FCH Bridge - Weight: I don't have a scale unfortunately. It feels like an average jazz, I'd say on the lighter side of average. Definitely not a heavy bass. - Overall condition: obviously relic'ed, but this is only cosmetic. No structural issues, everything is solid. Asking £700. Collection in Cambridge preferred. I'm also in North London fairly often. Shipping is possible but there is no case with this bass. No trades unfortunately. Thanks!
  15. You can usually treat bursitis with things like rest, ice packs and painkillers. But prevention being better than the cure, @Happy Jack has a video on here somewhere, showing how to warm up before playing, which will help prevent reoccurrence.
  16. I have a crap Lenovo tablet looking for a use as I've ordered a galaxy tab to replace it for work. It is very slow, but It could serve for setlists/prompts especially if depping. Is there a good android app, or am I best off just having a pdf. The ideal would be a setlist, andvrap.on a song brings up a page of notes/condensed tab/chord chart or whatever... Main requirements- never goes blank, stable - doesn't easily disappear or crash. Big letters.
  17. I had elbow bursitis. Doctor said it should sort itself but come back if it inflames. A few days later it went a funny colour and very hot. Horse-sized antibiotics and it then got better. My main issue is arthritis but playing seems to be the best treatment. Plus I had vestibular neuritis come on at a gig, fortunately the lying down vomiting phase came on after I got my gear away... a week in hospital and a month later still having the odd bout of nausea.
  18. I believe he is the son of the late great John Giblin who is probably my favourite bass player.
  19. I've put together/swapped around miscellaneous Precision/Jazz parts and have never had an issue. (There was one where the holes didn't align, so I had to re-drill.) Warmoth body with Status Graphite neck, Squier body with Mighty Mite Neck. The same body with a Fender MIM neck. My Frankenstin bass, with Status Graphite neck. The Mighty Mite fretless neck made its way onto a MIM Jazz body. A Fender MIM lined fretless neck temporarily on a Squier body; I might be waiting for a nice Jazz body to appear at some point.. I've also got a Squier neck I've used temporarily on one or two of those bodies. I previously had a Warmoth/Status Graphite lined fretless. This was the earlier Fender MIM neck on a Squier body (I think I put a Squier neck on that and sold it on).
  20. TBH I'll need to take it off and check. I'll post back here.
  21. That's works with me, I'll send you a PM with the details.
  22. Heh, the Talbot! We used to go there as teenagers because they weren't too fussy about asking for ID 😁 I've made a small donation to Dorothy House in exchange for this unexpected trip down memory lane!
