I was pottering about with my Mutron III the other day and I think it's developed a fault. The range of effect seemed really limited, it's like most of the ducks have escaped so it's no longer very quacky. Ages ago I had this problem with another Mutron, and took it to Martin Owen in Manchester, who worked a minor miracle by repairing the optocoupler.
I had a look for his website the other day and it doesn't seem to be active any more, does anyone know if he's still in business? If not any recommendations for another mild mannered electronics genius who may or may not live with his mum?

What if a) you’ve already ordered the book or b) want go with your partner but you don’t both need the book?

If you go directly to the vendor’s website, it’s £2795 rather than £3045, which makes it slightly more palatable, but still on the pricey side I’d say.

I’m a little disappointed as I thought this thread was about Scooby Doo’s reaction upon seeing a ghost.

This one was definitely faulty. We plugged it in after trying the Jazz and it was inaudible.

Went to PMT Manchester yesterday with my daughter to try out a couple of basses. A very nice daphne blue Vintera 60s jazz (which for some reason is now about £300 more expensive on the website than when we were there yesterday), and then we were going to try the seafoam green 50's Vintera P, but it didn't work! Really low output, duff pickup or something. Looked really lovely, though.

I admit I was sorely tempted, but not at that price.

I think the value depends largely on what state the neck is in. A genuine useable early ‘70s neck on its own is worth £1k plus.

I'd play that at a country night, or in church. Anyone who complains is a churlish killjoy.

Apparently they’re 27% more pointy than a Precision.

I always used the line, “We’ve had some requests…. But we’re going to carry on playing anyway.”

It bugs me when someone's trying to sell something and they say, "this bit's broken but it's really cheap and easy to fix!"... why didn't you do it yourself then?

I've got seven new sets of flats sitting around in case I need them. I reckon that's a minimum of 140 years' worth.
Why don’t you rent some out? That’s quite a popular business so I believe.

Good point, but then it's a well known fact that suspension bridges are built using recycled roundwounds, so if everyone used flats we wouldn't have any suspension bridges.

If you don’t play flats then you’re just limiting yourself to sharps and naturals.

Saw Muse supported by the amazing Nova Twins a couple of weeks ago, will definitely go and see them again. Next month it’s Ben Folds, Extreme / Living Colour, The Darkness in Amsterdam (18th birthday present for daughter) and The Darkness again in Manchester.
