    I'll work in our office in Twickenham, so being located in Twickenham or Richmond would being preferred. Age 50, I work as an IT project manager. Said that, I would like to use this work stay to explore London / London music scene the evenings, and on the weekends together with my wife, who would visit me.

    an early 90s Peavey TL-6

    The neck was 60mm wide at the nut. Not much fun to handle. The neck was shaped narrower, so that it is only 54mm wide at the nut. A new nut has been installed. The thickness of the neck hasn't changed. As the wood is oiled, there was no damage to the finish.

    Ibanez Wheeping Demon WD-7 I play fast punk and gritty rock. Only the strong (soundwise) survive. The WD-7 did. Most Wah-pedals work on bass only in a "clean" environment. If there is serious rock'n'roll guitar playing and thundering drums, most Wahs are simply harmless.

    I don't get the point. Why reducing the pedalboard for the sake of [i]reducing the pedalboard[/i]? I experience times, where effects keep a'changin, and then there are times,of stability. So what? If an effect isn't used, I remove it. Just to not torture my bandmates too much, I restrict pedal change to 1 per rehearsal.

    As long as the music that you hear in your head comes out as you want it to, it really doesn't matter if you perform it on a 4/5/6- or 3-stringed bass guitar.

    Standard approch: works good, supports the drums, does'n't interfere with the guitar, leaves plenty of spaces, without beeing dull. Standard approch V2: too busy, doesn't work. Doesn't gel with drums and guitar. Pedal Tone: too static, Dull. No tension. Pedal tone + no "1": hook line quality! Etablishes a counterpoint to the melody. Low melody: too weak, nothing that brings a new quality to the song
