The photo accompanying the interview show that they'd been put in by that point - they do seem to be an afterthought but not that far after.

Strange that he doesn't mention that the short scale neck is an 8-string.

Sir just needs a pillar drill and a couple of clamps. Or, as m'learned friend suggests, epoxy.

Have you considered box section rather than bar?

Picked up on Friday from the Gardiner Houlgate auction house following their guitar sale (along with an Ebow and a Boss CE5). This is the JTV69 with HSS pickups rather than the JTV69S which is SSS. Also came with the Workbench hardware - I already have that but it's not a bad thing to have a spare.

Seems a reasonable candidate to rival the MS-60B+. Set up some presets and switch back and forth between them, or just set it up for a particular sound if you only want to use one. Incidentally, Eric Klein was also very complimentary about the Zoom multistomps in that same TB thread.

He might start playing chess though.

That set me off on a quest to find a signature bass that I would consider owning - surprisingly, I found one, the Kiesel Amos Williams Signature 5-String Headless Bass. Doesn't look like there's any for sale though.

I bought an acrylic light-up 5-string bass from Music Zoo. One LED didn't light up, they sent me a replacement neck (which I have yet to fit). Someone on Talkbass ordered a custom bass from them and it worked out well.

That might change for a fretless as the somewhat aggressive nature of the Nordstrands might not suit fretless as well as the Barts.

The USB port on the MS-60B isn't an official MIDI port, it's accessible and can be used to transmit and receive MIDI messages. If the MS-60B+ is editable using a PC via the USB port, it will be possible to transmit and receive MIDI messages to/from that too.

Not to mention that every time someone says they've bought a B1-Four, @Al Krow has an orgasm.

It can be de-locked. The little screw that holds the locking bits in may be a crosshead or it may be a Torx, which is the only tricky bit about the operation.

It would be nice if they did one with a 1265 or 1505 body rather than the painted one.

His children have formed a symphony orchestra.

I suggest a helicopter view of a deep dive outside the envelope with the intent of leveraging the synergy of the blue sky thinking.

Have you often felt that you are very interested in expert analysis?

Does the Nano Every run at 3.3V? If so, you need to use different resistors to the 220R on each side that you use for 5V. Use a 33R instead of 220R between MIDI DIN pin 4 and 3.3V, and 10R instead of 220R between Tx and pin 5.

I don't need a stand, a washing line will do.

The electronics in my multiscale headless were crap, so I invested £25 in an Artec preamp and it's fine - pickups were good enough.

A few decades ago, a friend started an open mic night in Tamworth, and a relatively old chap called Duke I knew from drinking together in another pub came along with his guitar. I finished up playing bass with him, and learnt that he had been the vocalist and guitarist with the Vikings, the band that morphed into The Move, but had to leave to do national service. http://www.brumbeat.net/vikings.htm - he's at bottom right of the photo labelled "The Vikings in 1959".

I'll never unsee those legs.

I feel that Mr Phillips' magnum opus, A Night in Langney, could benefit from a remix.

We were playing originals songs in pubs. It does happen, you know, whatever you on your lofty cloud may think.

You keep on coming out with this. I was in an originals band up till about two years ago. Of the dozen or so venues we played, one had PA. So your originals experience doesn't extrapolate to everybody else's.
