  1. @Frank Blank I will be using public transport, hence can’t bring very much. I have a couple of semi interesting basses that people may be curious about and tempted to have a play on. So besides curiosity, I could bring a Kramer 450B (alu neck) if it can be plugged into someone else’s rig.
  2. Thank you @Frank Blank and @Richard R
  3. I have never been to a bash. Can you only get in if you set up shop and bring some gear? No “visitors only”?
  4. @Alex Buzzard is looking for a Mosrite (among others) - this gives off quite the Mosrite vibe. Could be an option?
  5. Welcome @Woolly
  6. DOD fx72 Bass Stereo Flanger for me. Found the sounds I was after pretty quickly and never needed to try an alternative.
  7. From your original photo, I would say it is the cable I highlighted in yellow (to the Jack?).
  8. I’ll go see you in London too 😉
  9. That moment is included right at the end of the video - nice one 😊
  10. Has it got exposed pole pieces? When playing basses with such pickups in my early days, I was hearing strange popping/knocking noises. It took me a while to realise I was digging in so hard that the strings were hitting the pole pieces and sticking to them slightly, causing the noise. I have adjusted my technique since 😂
  11. Was it a misunderstanding? Someone thought it was their umbrella?
  12. Yeah, that’s really funny.
  13. Some good ideas there. I would add a simple looper pedal to the mix - great for quickly recording yourself when inspiration strikes.
  14. Not my story, but a friend of mine deputised in a KISS tribute band recently (where they do the full makeup thing and all) and after the show a punter asked for his autograph. He was rather baffled and asked what do you mean? You want my autograph? … Or Gene Simmons’? I’ll let you guess the response.
  15. @Muzz A Hondo Alien has been changing hands on here for not a lot of money just before Christmas - currently on hold but may be worth asking if still available if interested?
  16. I like the look of them too I bought the Hondo Alien specifically because it has an aluminium neck which I thought would be more likely to survive travelling - I keep it in my camper van. I prefer the look of the Hohners. I don’t know how easy they are to find, I think I was the sole bidder on mine 😂
  17. I have a Hondo Alien, which is a bolt-on (and weird looking 😂).
  18. PM sent - do you know the nut width and string spacing?
  19. These hardly ever come up for sale. Great, very versatile basses. GLWTS.
  20. I was there too! Student in Bristol (on international exchange) and that was the only place that still had tickets for that tour. A local music shop organised a bus+ticket combo and off we went. Great gig! Great memories! I have seen them many times since and I was at Wembley Arena last night too.
  21. I never saw The Ely Plains but my partner remembers the Lock Tavern gig fondly. We were good friends of Jan.
  22. Serial number: 2512 Stollen… (I miss the bad jokes thread)
  23. Ignore me.
  24. Is the EU purchasing programme a fiasco? I didn’t think so, I didn’t see anything about that. The rollout for sure is and has been handled much better in the UK. I remember reading that the UK buys each dose of Pfizer vaccine for 28 (euros or GBP) whereas the EU buys them for 18 (euros or GBP) - economy of scale.
  25. Agreed. The UK will need to loosen their strict 30 days rule for this particular scenario. Given the value of the music industry, and with a bit of lobbying (as you mentioned previously), it should be possible.
