    I want a double bass. They're outside my budget, I can't play them, I haven't got space in the house, I'd need a new car, my neighbours would hate me if I tried to practice...
  2. alyctes
    Not much. But I'm mostly playing fretless, and not tuning it properly is another obstacle to playing in tune.
  3. alyctes
    I change strings when I can't get reliable harmonics off them to tune.

    Um, typo?, "active circuit does appear to work"?

    Why? oh Why?

    Cromwell's troops would have used it for firewood. Which, to be fair, might be why the punter needed a table...

    Fair enough :)

    What size is the neck pocket, please? I have a Revelation fretless neck I need to find a home for.
  8. alyctes
    It's very nice, but I should have known better... Glad it's gone to a good home.
  9. alyctes
    All of them...

    Almost nil. What does it sound like, can I play it (nope... i.e. is it too heavy, does it balance, etc.). Occasionally, is it seriously cool (I have a Westone Rail :) That's pretty much it.

    That's a gratuitously silly shape. Fabulous

    Personally, I don't think I'm all that good at this bass malarkey.
  13. alyctes
    Um, 8kg?

    I really, realy dislike Frank Zappa. And I went off Foo Fighters very quickly. Some decent tunes, but a wash of hi-hat in absolutely bloody everything... He's supposed to be a good drummer??!

    I wish. I haven't got the space for even a compact kit, though.

    Does the jack mount swivel? I seem to remember it did on the Amplug I used to have.

    "Ravaged By Mice": new band name.

    All of that sh!te about L00K!!!! and suchlike attempts to cheat. I won't deal with people who do that under any circumstances.
  19. alyctes
    Me too. Thank goodness; I've already bought a bass this week...
  20. alyctes
    I bought a fretless from Chris. Nice guy, good deal, happy me. I'd be pleased to trade with him again.
  21. alyctes
    Done.
  22. alyctes
    I think we can safely assume the neck is bolt-on.
  23. alyctes
    There's a reason they are rare 😠
  24. alyctes
    Nothing like calling a spade a spade...
  25. alyctes
    I've been wondering about putting strings on a rake for a while...
