It's been 5 hours dammit! We need MORE!!!

I'm not sure I can hear any difference - even with my studio monitors. I like the tone either way.

Spector threads upset me. I really really want a Euro, but I've never found one 8lb or under. I just can't do anything heavier these days.

I've sold one pedal now so I'm a third of the way there!

Could get mates to ship the Joe Dart bass - that one really does look like a $500 bass!

Why the smeg isn't the SLO neck a standard option? Also: mates - yes. Money at the moment.... errrrrr! I'm trying to plan a major birthday purchase with some saving up time.

Could be I suppose. I really like the look of them - especially as the new Stingray Specials have increased the nut width to the point where I don't want one (gutted - I was really looking forward to the new lower weight). But knowing my luck the Fenders will be too heavy. It's not like they will be churning out enough to increase the odds of some super light woods.

The Fender Active Flea bass: https://shop.fender.com/en-GB/electric-basses/jazz-bass/flea-signature-active-jazz-bass/0192602728.html The Fender Active Flea Bass (INTERNATIONAL) https://shop.fender.com/en-GB/electric-basses/jazz-bass/flea-signature-active-jazz-bass-international/0192612728.html The first has the Aguilar preamp. The international one is more expensive and only has a Fender preamp. The international model is more expensive too! Why on earth would they not fit the same preamp?

I'm thinking of getting a Warmoth body and a Status neck to assemble something a bit different. Can anyone tell me what the back of the neck is like on the Status-Graphite jazz necks? The reason I ask is that I've had some old Status basses that I loved, then I had a modern one and the neck shape had changed dramatically - the new one was very much a D shape neck that was really quite square and felt like it had 'shoulders' rather than a gentle curve. Do the Jazz necks have that or are they like an actual jazz bass would be? thanks.

This is great. I've been thinking about one of the Ibby Mezzo 32 scale basses - 5 string. Need to sell a few pedals to raise the money.

I've got a pair of Yamaha HS7 and I love them. Great sound quality, more than loud enough - I use them as my main home amp with my Helix now. Very revealing too - amazing how much I didn't hear with my crappy logitech speakers.

Nothing. It's all part of the tool box. Same as using a plectrum if the song needs it.

I’ve got one of them and it’s great. Can do all on, just P, or just J. Js have a balance so by selecting the bridge can have a trad PJ too.

Very bright, really do sound like rounds and stay bright quite well too. They did go through a phase of having some dodgy quality control but I don’t know if they’ve fixed that now.

Or both. Might as well while the router is plugged in!

The Seymour Quarter Pounder doesn’t sound like a P. too much bass and too little mids. Horrible for P sounds, but a good option for others sounds.

I’m self employed too. Emails are reviewed in working hours. Bank holidays and weekends are not working hours. Separation between work and home life is important.

National Holiday for VE Day and a weekend? Are you available to work emails 24 hours a day?

Or maybe, just maybe, there’s a world event that is getting in the way of regular business at the moment. sure I read about something like that recently.

Reign in Blood, South of Heaven, Seasons in the Abyss are very different. I think they are easily as different as Kill em All, Ride the Lightning, and Master of Puppets. Can always tell if an album was mostly King or Hanneman writing too.

I must admit I thought it was Eddie Van Halen. But then again JJ Cale was tapping before EVH made it famous too.

Been looking at the specs. The 2x12 would weigh less than my pair of BF One10. What do they sound like? Are they a bit vintage like the One10 or more modern? ta

If the silks don't line up then I don't want them. (Sorry, couldn't resist).

Not that I've noticed. But I tend to use the fully compressed 'juicy' option instead of blending.

Built in wireless will never happen. Too expensive to deal with different countries legal frequency ranges when the main purpose of the product is not as a wireless. There was a lot of people suggesting it for the Helix and the L6 developers took their time to explain why it wouldn't work and the unit price would go up massively for something that many people just didn't want or had units they preferred for their location.
