That was fantastic! Right up my street that is!

I practice at home with either an 800W Markbass head or a 900W Darkglass head into a Barefaced Super Twin. I have no difficulty getting the volume set so low that the natural acoustic sounds of the bass are louder than the amp. I really don't understand why you are having trouble. What am I missing?

If it's only home practice and for some reason a bass Vol control, a gain and volume on the amp won't get it quiet enough then this: https://www.gak.co.uk/en/blackstar-fly-3-bass-battery-powered-practice-amp/130750 Tone just isn't important for practice at that low a volume.

Clearly the only answer is to buy all the pedals and try them. Then buy a bigger pedal board because they are all too good to send back. Tell the significant other that there has been a committee decision and you can't do anything about it. Rulz is Rulz.

You posted the pic of that amp on purpose!

I'd have a look at the Tech 21 Steve Harris pedal though. It's amazingly versatile. Demo of all the suggested settings: The Motown setting really is that good in real life.

I use my B3K for trad sounds. I set the drive low and it just adds some harmonic content and thickness. Sounds brilliant for Stevie Wonder stuff. Just enough grit to cut through when playing hard, and a lovely rounded tone when played gently. I actually prefer the B3K for that than the Vintage models.

Just have a look at the string splay on a Les Paul or even worse, on a Jackson with the old metal shape headstock! Nothing to worry about.

My main PC is hardwired. It's so much better than wifi that at some point I'm going to hire a massive drill so I can go through a double layer wall (used to be an exterior one before an extension was built) to get a wired connection to my PS4. I use the PS4 for all all media in the lounge and although it's good with streamed video stuff it gets blockly occasionally.

18 year olds with strong backs and more money than sense. I bet they are only built to order.

Hey Mr FOH, can you put 10 mics on my cab please?

With a sprinkle of Devin Townsend!

I've started to learn that tune. It's brilliant.

I just spotted that Hughes got invited for The Dead Daisies project for an album as singer / bassist. It's a great CD! Well worth a listen. I'm a big fan of the John Corabi Daisies albums but it's great to hear Hughes again.

Thank you! My next appointment is in a week. If things are going well the splint will be off and I'll have to tape it during the day and splint at night. If that happens then apparently I'll be asked to start doing simple things with that hand / finger again. Typing / writing etc to get it moving a bit. Nothing heavy like lifting kettles with that hand though. My appreciation for pick playing has increased massively, but it still doesn't sound like me so I'm hoping after physio I'll be able to go back to playing fingerstyle. Although I have confirmed my past experience that I can play and sing at the same time with a pick but not with fingers. Weird!

He told me that as well. I also asked him why his market research suggested such a heavy cab would sell in sufficient numbers in the modern lightweight cab world particularly after Darkglass had abandoned their heavy cabs after only a year.... and then pointed him to other similar sized cabs with better specs and only half the weight. Then I got blocked.

I saw it on Facebook when it was launched and I asked a load of questions... until Thomas Eich blocked me. 11 stone for a cab. Bloody stupid.

Still in the splint.

I’ve tweaked the B3K a bit and now they are stacking wonderfully. It inspired me to write a new tune with the tone. Noice.

Kytary has a "no UK deliveries" notice!

Their website is sh1te. Often has broken or incorrect links. I've had good service from them but I also call to check specs on things before I buy.

Nathan Navarro demo

I had a Zon Hyperbass and regularly played it through a Roland Bass Cube.

Lovely playing!

ok boomer.
