Gary Barlow on fine form last night in Manchester. Lee Pomeroy (just in shot on the right) appeared to have a ball. Also Milton McDonald on guitar left-front making a second Yes-related band member as he played with ABWH way back when they toured. Add to that Gary himself chose 'Owner of a Lonely Heart' on 'Desert Island Discs' as his wake-up call to step up the production for his music. (https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m0001h1p) However no prog last night, just Gary's solo and Take That bangers. Great show.

Do JHS DIY pedals count? A thread on their NotaDumble:

Bass the World's take:

Which they have acknowledged themselves many times. In fact, I think Chris pops up briefly to praise JE in the full documentary.

Great sound on bass and voiced differently to Darkglass. Not sure of the retail yet but JHS are usually reasonable - especially the kits.

He had such a great tone with his Alembics but that Status through a flanger and distortion? Ugh! What a mess.

Oh yes! The original is Prog's last gasp of the 70's and is vintage Holdsworth. Entry point for many Holdsworth fans. Just a great song to start then Holdsworth raises the tension to unbearable levels before the release - killing!

I think he does play the bass on many of his records... Here's UK's 'In the Dead of Night' where he nails the line.

Just saw this reel of our Swedish Maestro showcasing his Fender basses with some shred. Fretless with a pick! Sacrilege! https://www.instagram.com/reel/DIatPEWJUpi/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link

Sounds good - love the original album and the three subsequent Joni/Jaco collab albums. He played totally differently with Joni compared to his solo and Weather Report gigs.

Oh great - hope it lives up to the hype. Would love to hear you reaction/review.

I quite like the tone BUT it's ubiquitous on YouTube. I like the less intense variants such as the 'Vintage' range. That said, it looks like the Anagram can do it all, and not just distortions.

Yes - thank-you. Split and merge blocks in the signal chain... cool. Not sure I can afford £900 though...
