    If it’s been in the box for that long, I strongly advise you update the firmware to v3.60 and give it another go, it has had VAST improvements since October 2019. 

    I thought about that, but I don't even have anything to plug it into any more - and my effects palette has basically turned into pick or fingers!

  2. Since the advent of global plague, I've played a grand total of one gig, 3 weeks ago. We had to end on the always...erm...enjoyable...All Right Now (mostly 'cos SuperScrote DJ MC knobhead was already pretending we were his support act, but I digress...) Afterwards two blokes wander up and tell me how they were dead impressed with that Free song and that I played it so like the original it was like having the LP on. I took the compliment and forced down the urge to scream 'that's all very nice, 'cos I spent the last third of the song playing SMOKE ON THE FU**IN' WATER, YOU DEAF ****S!!!!'

     

    That would be bad form, I assume.

     

    In any given performance the number of people who could care less about bass is one. That's a proven scientific fact, they did tests at CERN.

    It's funny to see some people not liking blank fretboards. For me the standard dot inlays are really grating. It's not a complete deal breaker but very nearly. 
     

    I don't mind if they're offset, but blank boards are my preference by far.

    Should anyone else need a nudge on blank boards, they feck guitarists right off!

  4. If there's a screw (usually an allen head) on the bottom end of the bit you turn, then it's more than likely not reversible, if it looks like a mushroom shape it might be. The only way to tell is to pull one to bits and find out, really.

    Edit: I have an SR5 (around 99/00 build) and they look like they should be switchable - the end of the shaft is machined flat just to make me look daft after writing the above! It had strings not long ago, so I've no plans to mess with it yet.
