Depending on the bass, it will work or it won't. If it doesn't work, you have two courses of action: Swap the negative and ground leads on the bass output socket Get a short mono male jack to female jack lead and use that to connect between the dongle and the bass

After seeing it mentioned somewhere on BC, I bought one of these: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005055355118.html What I would like to do is use a USB power bank to power this (OK so far) and use it to power a small pedalboard including an HX Stomp (less OK). So, experiment time. Using an Okzu C1017 10000mAh power bank, I tried supplying the HX Stomp using a 3 into 1 DC cable to parallel the two 300mA outlets and one 100mA output. Initially I used the USB-A outlet. The powerbank displayed 188 and nothing else happened. Then I tried the USB-C outlet with the same result. I then tried running it off a mains-USB-C adaptor and it worked, and indeed continued working after I unplugged first the 100mA outlet and then the second 300mA outlet. So the power supply itself works but the power bank is inadequate, which it shouldn't really be as it's supposed to be a 22.5W charger. It's not broken - it's happily charging my phone right now as a test. Does anybody happen to know of a reasonably inexpensive USB powerbank that might work for this application?

One of the very few Ashbory MkIIs in maple finish in existence (there's only another 9 in the world). Currently incoming.

And a very final (probably) purchase of 2024, currently incoming so report when it gets here.

The TS4 series has a Sub Size switch which allows selection of HPF frequency.

Is that the Pukka Ohm GC60 combo that you're using, and if so, is the output that you're using the one on the front panel that says "Pre-amp Output"? If so, it's really quiet because that output is intended to go into a second amplifier rather than a cab. @TheGreek has owned a couple of them, he might be able to give some pointers if he hasn't completely forgotten them by now.

I find this somewhat confusing. You may enter a box junction as long as either the exit is clear, or you are turning right and cannot do so due to oncoming traffic or because you're behind other traffic waiting to turn. If you enter the box junction and cannot exit due to stationary vehicles in the exit, you're guilty and bang to rights.

A few years ago, I was brought into a band as a replacement for the original bassist who was unreliable and didn't want to gig anywhere more than half a mile from his house, as the guitarist and I had played together in a band ten or fifteen years before. Then the vocalist disappeared without trace and Mrs Zero was drafted in to replace him. The material gradually changed after that. Then the drummer left and we got a replacement in, a colleague of mine, which was a considerable improvement. Then the guitarist, the final original member, left, and we replaced him, and there was another shift in the material because the new guitarist, another colleague of mine, was better but also didn't want to do original material (we had a couple of originals in the set). We went through another couple of drummers and then Mrs Zero decided to give up and at that point we called a halt as we didn't want to try and find a replacement for her.

Name and shame. I doubt it would affect us as we're unlikely to travel that far north, but others might benefit.

It may... Might also be worth unscrewing the bridge and making sure that that end of the tape is making good contact with it.

I could be replaced by any reasonable standard bassist, although some years after being kicked out of a band because the lead guitarist and drummer (brothers) wanted to bring their mate in, they tried to re-recruit me. There were a couple of bassists who had passed through the band, and the guitarist's wife told Mrs Zero that it hadn't been the same since getting rid of me. However, as the true nature of the others as a bunch of racist Islamophobes had become evident, I politely declined. As for the current band - I play, do the website, do some of the Facebook stuff, and contribute to the general melange of organisation. Oh yes, and provide the PA and lighting (such as it is). We've become quite a cohesive unit and I think losing any of us would be regrettable. No virtuosos but no weak links either.

Surely you haven't already forgotten the recent direct action and burning stuff, where the stuff being burnt was asylum seekers' hostels? Be careful what you wish for.

Shades of MDP? Although the neck and bridge are still in the original positions.

I have a feeling that the seller was using the inches scale on his ruler rather than the centimetres one when measuring the neck length.

You might prefer them to be in Norfolk, Virginia.

He has a few bits of studio kit for sale too.

Just thought I'd mention that Line 6 have updated the manual for both the Stomp and HX Edit to 3.80 (@Wombat has mentioned it above but just in case people missed it). Also, v3.82 of HX Edit is out.

So if it's left of centre it could be either sharp or flat, rather than flat on the left and sharp on the right?

The BB2 I had had plenty of top end - the tweeter is adjustable. The BB3 also has a variable tweeter. And Alex has moved the BB handle to the top of the cab for the BB3 and made it recessed which would make it an easier carry than the BB2.

It's not thought crime. It doesn't matter what was going through his head. There was an order that he could not stand there, and he didn't abide by it. The praying was utterly irrelevant. This is like when people got sent down for crimes on "attack a migrant hostel day" a few weeks ago and others were saying they didn't do anything, disregarding the shoving burning bins at police and things like that that they actually did. And before you tell me that he didn't push a burning bin at anyone, no he didn't. He stood somewhere he had been forbidden to stand because so many people got harrassed when they were going to the clinic and so there was an exclusion zone. He didn't get arrested for praying, he got arrested for not leaving the exclusion zone when it was requested, so it was a physical action (or inaction) that got him arrested, not the praying. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/crime/christian-bournemouth-christchurch-uk-parliament-army-b2631603.html

No problem with Elites or Warwick strings, so that's me sorted.

There is the example of the guy who tweeted "Crap! Robin Hood airport is closed. You've got a week and a bit to get your shit together, otherwise I'm blowing the airport sky high!!". Fined by the magistrates' court, went on to appeal which was rejected by the crown court but the High Court upheld the appeal on the grounds that it was fairly obvious it was a joke, albeit in bad taste, and wasn't in a terrorist context. If someone with a history of racist posts posted the example given then that would be a whole different context and the reporting/joking/asking a question wouldn't apply.

The example probably wouldn't fall under first amendment protection - see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shouting_fire_in_a_crowded_theater

Use a clamping head end rather than a DBE one, problem solved.

Of the 17 priorities, several seem to apply: Hate - at various points hatred has been expressed towards Fenders, headstocks, headless basses, assorted retailers, assorted couriers, etc Proceeds of crime - many of us have admitted to receiving money from offences against music Drugs and psychoactive substances - least said, soonest mended Animal cruelty - we've all seen those pictures of the cat dressed up as Santa
