@Lozz196 Correct! There are some dedicated guitar pedal versions of battery packs but they tend to be very expensive for very similar specs. So I use these: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00MWU1GGI/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 with https://myvolts.co.uk/Ripcord Just make sure you pick the 9V centre negative version! I've also got one of these in my pack as a spare. https://myvolts.co.uk/product/44871/myVolts_5000mAh_2.4A_Power_Bank_-_Red Dead easy to use - charge up the pack and then use the 5V to 9V cable converter and run a daisy chain from the converter to your pedals. If you have low current draw pedals then you'll only need 1. If you have some hungry digital pedals like delays and synths then you might want to give that it's own battery pack. Personally I'd always take 2 anyway. At £7.99 they are dirt cheap and it's good to have a spare if you are gigging. Also has the benefit of being able to charge your phone for the journey home too! Some of the dedicated guitar versions are only 9V output so they can't be used for other USB purposes and they can cost over £100.

I ran my dUg from a 5000mAh battery pack designed for iphone recharging with a cable that did the conversion from 5V to 9V. I now use 2 of the power packs to power my small pedal board. The packs are small and only £7.99. Cables about £5. Then run a daisy chain to the pedals. Job done.

Jazz Elite at £1399 https://www.andertons.co.uk/fender-american-elite-jazz-bass-ash-natural-maple-board Precision https://www.andertons.co.uk/fender-american-elite-precision-bass-ebony-fingerboard-satin-jade-pearl-metallic That's a lot of money off the new price!

I tried to find writing credits for the Winery Dogs - but all 3 of them are listed on every tune. Sheehan has been a successful writer all the way back to Talas, but I don't know if that is music only or whether he also writes lyrics.

Updated again to Sunday 27th October. That's better than it was by a couple of days. Fingers crossed!

Andertons page now says next delivery date is Unknown!!

I really liked Winery Dogs, but so far I’ve been really disappointed with the Sons of Apollo even though the rhythm section is identical.

There's a dedicated WANTED page in the classifieds. Best put it there.

Steve Harris. But I've always played bass and guitar. When I've put together bands on several occasions I've advertised for both, not minding which one replies as I would play the other. These days though, I prefer to stick to the bass.

I had one. A courier killed it by dropping it and wrecking the speakers.

Make it a pinned post then so it can all go in one place.

Ban the first and nobody will need to do the other.

Can we ban the “I don’t get relics” threads? They come up every 2 months and in every case the OP thinks they are making an original point when in fact it’s the exactly same point. i am yearning for a “I don’t get neon colours” thread just for a change! because that’s all it is. It’s just a different finish option that takes more time and so costs more money. Nobody flips through a catalogue and stops to write a thread about graphic finishes or neons, or even pooburst. There is nothing to “understand.” Some like it, some don’t. I don’t understand baked beans. I might do a thread.

I have one of those looms in my Stringray 5!! Man, the hate I got on the EBMM forum...

It's either covered by the courier or by their own business insurance - usually the latter. And of course makers and shops generally know how to pack things properly. Unlike the eijit on facebook that I bought a bass from - there was a case, but he just wrapped it in a bin bag!

I am really loving my ThorpyFX Fat General. I actually sold a Cali 76 because of it.

That VS4 is lovely. A VS4 is definitely my next bass buy.

I can't remember the amp I tried it with but the bass was quite a nice Ibanez. The Tech 21's / Darkglass etc avoid the wooly bottom. Depends on which Tech 21 of course. I had a dUg and really liked it but it's not very versatile. DG VMT is great if you want the old Ampeg thing. I've not tried the newest Boss bass drive yet.

Parcelforce do not allow extra insurance for instruments even if you pay for it. It's in the terms. Also in the terms - no damage claims if there is no proper case for it. Frankly - if you send an instrument without a case I worry about your sanity.

I thought it was a bit wooly sounding. And not in a cranked B15 sort of way either. Didn't like it at all so I didn't buy it.

Hatred turned to apathy led down this dark abyss goodnight farewell you pig from hell this world I shall not miss "Word Salad" by Annihilator. Very much tongue in cheek and excellent for it.
