Effects list for the MS-50G+ - https://zoomcorp.com/media/documents/E_MS-50Gplus_FX-list.pdf It's pretty much a subset of the MS-50G effects. it's not just the original MS-50G effects before they were expanded, I've just compared part of the list and there are one or two later additions to the 50G effects list that are on the 50G+. So expect a revamped MS-60B with a subset of the 130-odd effects currently on it (as I have said before) but presumably using a more recent chipset than the fairly elderly original MS series.

I would guess that not spending very much would mean rather less than £600-700.

As soon as you want a third HX effect, you'll have to buy another HX One. There's a send-return loop on the HX Stomp if you want your set of pedals in the middle of the Stomp stuff.

@adriansmith247, do you want to go for new or used? Used means having to hang around until the object of desire comes up in the second-hand market so how urgent is this? Do you need a cab with a tweeter? How vital is it to have a 2x12 rather than two 1x12s or a 2x10? What's the budget? Do you intend to upgrade the Markbass amp at some point?

£730. Perhaps you didn't read the bit about not wanting to spend a lot.

Year of conception bass?

That D# looks a bit on the heavy side. What does a .100 give you? I'd expect it to pretty much correspond to a 40-60-80-100 set plus a bottom hawser, for which a .150 looks about right.

There's an interesting page on the theme tunes (including the one that Clarkson forbade being used, and you can see why). https://topgear.fandom.com/wiki/Jessica_(instrumental) I remember the original Jessica being supplanted the first time. I thought whoever was playing on the new version must have been the producer's talentless child, it was so dreadful.

I pointed at that thread because it contains a number of similar events to yours.

How guitarists check Gibson necks.....

He eventually got it right, and starts discussing going on tour... -
Can't we have a party instead? We haven't had a good one since "Waste of TIM", or maybe "Mods please delete log in error".

You should expand your cultural horizons to include Monty Python.

There's also the SRF705 with the Bart MK-1 pickups rather than the Barts in the EHB1005F, plus a piezo bridge.

I would consider how much worse it would have been if the unicorn had got in through the cat flap. I would also wonder why the cat has now got steel claws. As nothing even slightly approaching this has happened in over 40 years of cat ownership, I think it would be unlikely. I do make regular checks of the fence to prevent the caribou getting in and nibbling the croquet hoops.

£150 an hour 20 years ago is almost as good as a divorce lawyer used to get.

Erm .. "Ricky styled PB-Bass (Perfect balance)"
tauzero replied to Bassfingers's topic in eBay - Weird and Wonderful
The headstock, the nut, the neck heel... surprisingly, he hasn't converted the pickup to a single coil. I think this one has appeared here before though. -
Did you say "figuratively" when you meant "metaphorically"?

It's quite impressive that he manages to hold the guitar at the same angle as Brian May is holding his in the picture above the piano. -
You could just get the bare board USB PD decoys and solder the leads to them the right way round. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/335286849794 for a few to experiment with.

How do I test a p bass pickup with a multimeter?
tauzero replied to Geek99's topic in General Discussion
The volume or the treble. More helpfully, as you turn the volume pot down, the resistance between tip and sleeve will drop. Turning the tone pot will make no difference, that only affects AC and determines how much treble is shunted to ground. -
Under the video is a button marked "Share". Click on that, then click on the "Copy" button under the row of icons. Then paste the copied link here.

I'm having to restrain myself and telling myself that I already have a Nux Mighty Plug and I only use it for an hour a week at the most. It does look rather nice.

That's because they're simpletons who don't understand how to circumvent the issue (well, it's Guitarworld so what do you expect). Certain wireless units have stereo jack plugs which are how they're charged (not the vast majority of Line 6 devices). Active basses almost always use a stereo jack socket in order to switch them on - the ring and sleeve are connected to ground and battery negative respectively. I think these rechargeable bugs will work with basses which are wired one way round (eg. ground to sleeve and battery negative to earth) but not the other way round. Ah, just found this on the page for the Boss WL-50: "*1 The typical TRS output jack wiring of guitar active circuit is audio to tip, ground to sleeve, and battery ground to ring. In rare cases where ring and sleeve are wired reversely, the guitar active circuit doesn't work properly with the WL-T." - https://www.boss.info/uk/support/by_product/wl-50/support_documents/eade711c-1f5a-4951-988b-e8e863611c64/ There are two ways to circumvent this, if you have an active bass which is incompatible with the bug. The first method is simply to switch the wires to the jack socket over. This does require very minor surgery on the bass - anyone who can wield a screwdriver and soldering iron without impaling themselves and suffering third degree burns can manage it. The other is to get a short extension lead, mono jack socket to mono jack plug, plug the wireless into one end and the other end into the bass.
