  1. I missed a gig because I was so excited to see double bass virtuoso Edgar Meyer that I forgot we were meant to be playing the same night. Also had a near miss when the dodgy van the keys player's dad was driving us in got a flat somewhere between Glasgow and Perth... fortunately he had a tin of sealant and we made it in the end.
  2. Very nice, much more balanced body shape than most Foderas imho.
  3. You can check whether your email has been leaked in a previous breach on https://haveibeenpwned.com/ Spoiler: it probably has.
  4. Nope, treat them like cattle not pets.
  5. B dorian might have the same notes as A major but it's not harmonically the same -- e.g. a B dorian line will probably be trying to resolve to the B tonic, which can create a tension (playing "outside", in jazz terms), although not as much as playing a line with notes from outside the scale. The exact point at which it switches from "playing a line in A major" to "playing a line in B dorian" is fuzzy, there's hundreds of years of theoretical analysis dedicated to unpicking that sort of thing.
  6. This is why I have a small tin of lighter fluid in the cupboard. Been a while since I've had to deal with any real filth though, fortunately.
  7. These look very cool but trying to read that website makes me feel like I'm having a stroke
  8. Do a Metro Express m5-24 you cowards
  9. My old version of EZDrummer includes notes for left and right for kick and snare in its MIDI mapping, although I'm not convinced they actually trigger anything differently.
  10. Less so on BC, but when selling locally (Gumtree etc) I always price a bit higher so when the inevitable lowball offers roll in they're closer to what I really want...
  11. I'd guess the switches are on/off per pickup, and a coil split on the push pull? Never seen a superstrat without a 3/5 way pickup selector before.
  12. White works better here imo, the red tort gets a bit lost.
  13. Ha, there was a related billboard ad from around the same time with the strapline "cheer up goth, have an Irn Bru" which is a favourite of mine 😅
  14. A volume knob for the guitar player
  15. What don't you like about the current setup? There are lots of options with varying degrees of cost/complexity, but if the current setup works I'd try living with it for a while.
  16. I'd take a 5 string over another Fender copy, I'm not much of a retro guy but that looks quite smart. They're obviously not in the vintage replica business and more power to them.
  17. Ask them to keep their rogue AI in check 🤖
  18. I had this for a while, not sure how it happened but I was able to switch it back using the buttons under the "Start new topic" button
  19. Smells like a typo from whoever entered the details at Thomann to me.
  20. I'd be looking in the classifieds for one that suits your budget and form factor -- I like my HX stomp which come up fairly frequently at ~£350 and should hold that for a while yet. Rackmount multi effects puts you straight into the top end these days, unfortunately -- I can't think of any guitar/bass oriented units without getting into Axe-FX/Helix Rack territory. I can't imagine a cheaper unit (e.g. Behringer FX2000) will be a worthwhile improvement over your G-Major.
  21. Was about to post this but it's £159 from GuitarGuitar so you can get an extra round in edit: oh the GG one isn't the Plus version
  22. The standard Overwater body shapes don't do much for me but that looks incredible
  23. Are you generating codes to distribute or something? This doesn't sound right to me in the general sense.
  24. I've sworn off physical media for space reasons (although I should really go back and re-rip my CD collection at higher quality...) -- 99% of the time now I'm buying downloads from Bandcamp, or occasionally one of the other digital storefronts if there's something I want that's not on BC.
  25. Tangent, but it's neat that that URL still works despite the profanity filter's best efforts.
