    [quote name='HowieBass' timestamp='1445759655' post='2893843'] It's a 1 not a 1A (passive not active). [/quote] Corrected, thanks. I don't quite know how I managed not to read the item title...

    Not my usual listening, but I liked it.

    Lou Reed, 'Sally Can't Dance'.

    That looks very nice

    Thank you, folks, this sort of thing is what makes BC such a great place

    I think it was Low, who, when they had people talking across them at their gigs, turned the volume [u]down[/u]...

    W00t! Nice work
  14. alyctes
    I like the "satin" finish. Much nicer than shiny.

    Roadstar 850, replaced tuners. Liverpool. £120 BIN. Seems cheap. Possibly suspiciously cheap. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Ibanez-roadstar-rb850-bass-/121791106979?hash=item1c5b50cfa3:g:2hQAAOSw~bFWI7bL

    Stevie was kind enough to let me have his table saw. A gentleman, and a credit to the site. Thank you!

    Bumping this old thread: I found the issue. The board is much more badly worn than I first thought, to the point where it should be replaced or reshot. The bass will have to go, because neither of those options is cost-effective. Thanks to all for your help and interest.

    [quote name='ezbass' timestamp='1445154466' post='2889073'] Looking at the interests in your avatar, I see you're in a field where there are two sides that butt heads regularly; that must be tough. I'm also guessing that witch burning is possibly ecologically unsound, so I retract the comment [/quote] It's also unsightly, foul-smelling and woefully inhumane. Just think of all those black cats suddenly rendered homeless... Work-wise, people have a tendency to shoot the messenger. So far as having too many basses, I maintain that more than 50 is too many. Especially given my lack of space and cash.

    Definitely better, to my ear (though this isn't my genre). The drums are better for being louder. The middle eight is better but still sounds rather disjointed to me. I like the last third, a definite improvement, to my ear.

    [quote name='Luulox' timestamp='1445162905' post='2889162'] It is recent yes, happened midweek. Basschat does seem to be the only site i frequent that has this problem.I suppose I will learn to live with it lol. Cheers Pete [/quote] Okay, it's not the [media ] tag, then, that's been happening for most of this year.

    [quote name='ezbass' timestamp='1445115476' post='2888969'] Burn him, he's a witch! [/quote] It's getting like being at work round here...

    [quote name='ezbass' timestamp='1445074843' post='2888577'] No one, really? [/quote] I've been looking at it every now and then. It looks great and I'm sure it sounds lovely, but I have too many basses and too little money.
  23. alyctes
    Is this to do with the [media ] tag I keep seeing? It's invisible to Firefox, so it's hard to work out what the membership is on about a lot of the time... [Edit: It's visible above because I put an extra space in. And I know it exists because if you quote a post, you can see the tags.]

    [quote name='Paul S' timestamp='1444850680' post='2886753'] Didn't Steely Dan do something similar, or am I getting confused? [/quote] Other way round

    [quote name='Dandelion' timestamp='1444805181' post='2886093'] That bridge is pollocks. [/quote] True, but at least the tunas are half decent.
