Good Stuff; thanks for sharing.

(Your secret is safe with me...)

I certainly enjoyed turning it off after... Well, a little too long. It had its chance.

Good luck getting decent intonation from the bridge adjusters.

(I'm A Little...) Apple Tree Warbler, with the Martin Spicer Band, using my Hofner President guitar as a bass, late '60s.

I plug the bass into the amp and that's it. Headstock tuner, s'all. KISS-style (Keep It Simple, Sonny...).

Fats Waller wouldn't get a look-in, then... ... nor Canned Heat ... There are plenty more.

If in a rural location, an electric fence might be the source of such interference. It's the case at our cottage; the car picks it up when tuned to Radio 4 long wave, too.

Wow..! Just 'Wow..!'

Sorry, too busy watching this paint dry, slowly. Disclaimer : I don't clean the car, either, nor sweep the floor (unless I've spilt something ...).

Ah, but that is the pleasure for those folk.

Alice..? Who the ...

Get your spectacles repaired.

Good, I'll be able to read it myself and learn something at last.

Aha..! Just the piece I need for my puzzle..!

This one..?

Be wary what you wish for..! I listened to the track, and couldn't help but to find resemblance (you may not agree..!) with a melody I composed nearly ten years ago, for our monthly Basschat Composition Challenge. A very different treatment, naturally, but, to me, the echos came across the (close to a ...) decade. As for your piece, and notwithstanding the above, I can't deny that's it's well played, if slightly stilted in the fingering, but (again, to me; you will not agree...) lacked the fullness to be thought of as complete. The sound of the instrument is finely detailed, and is not in question. It's the mere solitude of the intrument that holds it back. I would be loth to listen to a whole album played in this fashion. Well, you asked for opinions; this is mine. Congratulations on a fine recording, of course, and well done for composing and performing so well, and for sharing. I'm sorry if I come across as harsh; I would have liked to be more positive. Peace. Oh, and here's the piece evoked, from 2013, composition inspired by the picture offered by the previous month's winner (a ghostly wedding dress...)...

Happy daze..!

Well, to judge by your last (more likely 'latest'..?) demo, the 'process' works well..! Good Stuff (shades of 'Hysteria', but that's no bad thing...); thanks for sharing.

I seriously doubt that that would be a problem. Go for it...

@KingBollock : That looks fine, and I can't see much of an issue using tubes for the bars, as long as they don't rattle about in their holes. If you choose internal dimensions to be very close to existing cabs using similar speakers, you can't go that far wrong. It's certainly an interesting 'look'; I'm not sure how it would fare in the 'functions band' market, but there's no reason to doubt it would sound perfectly acceptable. How about a 'build topic' if/when you get stuck into the project..?

Any chance of a mock-up sketch, to show the main elements..? I'm trying to imagine the proportions of the cab. Just a rough, with some idea of dimensions. Please..? Pretty please..?

Miss Trellis..? The eldest daughter of Mrs Trellis, of North Whales..? Shirley not..! Or maybe serendipity, that such a name brings on these missives..?
