I just look at the rack, there's a couple in there. I use roundwounds on my fretlesses. Even using stainless strings, there is a bit of marking on the fingerboards but no serious wear.

How is saying that some people can't or don't use digital tuners dissing classic tunes? You really are making several mountains out of a grain of sand, just because you use a pitch pipe (oh f*cking la de da).

And funny!

Looking after it for a friend. PS. This does require that you have a friend, so make sure you're properly equipped in that department.

We won't gig for ridiculously low money (we think we're worth £75 apiece minimum) but we'll do the odd charity gig (where we know the charity) and very occasional lowball. We're by no means precious about anything, and we are genuinely surprised when audience members tell us after a gig that we're the best band that's played there ever/for ages/since last week.

One of the Seis has just gone in for a refret and I'm not going to have it back before the next gig. Use one of the fan frets, or buy a Cort Space? Decisions, decisions. Then I decided I'd just use a headed bass instead.

Bergerac - some lovely fretless bass on that. Morse, and its derivatives - Barrington Pheloung's compositions and incidental music are tremendous.

It's Easter - resurrection time!

That's just reminded me of another absolutely dreadful pile of crap - Lip Up Fatty by Bad Manners. Dance floor rammed with people doing imitations of Spotty Dog from the Woodentops.

C0 = 16.35Hz C1 = 32.7Hz C2 = 65.4Hz ... C247 = 3.7 x 10^75 Hz Slightly above the range of human hearing, and probably won't be reproduced too faithfully by the average PA speaker.

Antoniotsai - I have an almost identical one waiting for me to sort out a bridge for it, inlays are different though.

Tecamp Puma, any of the range (I used my 900 with a One10).

It's so the roadies can climb up them easily to mess around with the lighting rig.

Another vote for the Hotone. I used mine with a BF One10 for rehearsal, going to try it with a BC micro cab and my Plenty cab.

At a recent gig, the second guitarist's mic (for BVs) was feeding back rather readily. I noticed that although it was behind the FOH speaker, due to his pedalboard he'd got it angled at coming on for 45 degrees towards that side - he was quite close to the speaker too. At mid-session interval I got him to adjust the mic position so it was pointing about 45 degrees away instead (cardioid mic) and that reduced the feedback issue considerably. I'm not sure that would have come to mind as a possible cause had the issue of cardioid and hypercardioid polar patterns not come up in here recently.

That's a far better picture of the bridge. So not BBOT on the V3 after all.

The bridge looks different to the V3, it was a BBOT for all versions judging by that page.

The fifth screw into the neck is a bit unexpected.

Another vote for Red Red Whine - indeed, any of UB40's later cod-reggae covers, especially "I Got You Babe" - if you can't play 3/4 time, just don't bloody play songs written in it. Continuing the red theme, "Little Red Corvette" and "Raspberry Beret". Irritating trite little ditties.

Um, guitars have got a B string too.

Yes. An acrylic bass, 5-string with LEDs. One of the LEDs at the 24th fret didn't work so they sent me out a replacement neck. That was Music Zoo. Quality was good, fretwork well finished. It's a passive bass so no issues with preamp. I'll be replacing the strings at some point but they're usable.

I think it's a payment system like Event UK. Just messaged our drummer to ask him.

I'd like a second third fourth fifth opinion.
