Thanks all for the replies. I shall investigate forthwith!
-
One for the hive mind this - are there any video meeting platforms that permit simultaneous audio from the different inputters to enable live, remote jamming? I've used Zoom and Teams through work, neither of which I think have this function (Zoom definitely doesn't and I've usually zoned out of the work teams meetings so haven't established whether it does or not). I've seen what look like multi-participant performance videos with everyone in different locations but I guess they could be recordings where the additional players 'bounce' onto the original video, could they? Thanks all. (Mods - if there's a more appropriate forum for this please move as needed.)

Me too!

What he said. 😁
-
Quite right. Although Mike was telling me when he was having a test play yesterday there were several settings that put a smile on his face. And when he's made as many basses as he has that certainly a statement to pique the interest!
-
Me neither, Dave! It may take a little while before I can take delivery of it but once I do I will post some sound clips, promise.
-
You might as well just open a packet of spaghetti and photograph that for all this diagram means to me @Cosmicrain! 😁 Still, I guess only one of us needs to know what you're doing! 😉
-
Thanks all the same - appreciate the thought. Seems Plan A has been scuppered with any of the relatively decent couriers until I can get my hands on a box though...
-
Chester - so the 450-odd mile round trip is a non-starter for me for probably quite some time!
-
Thanks for this. It's a while since I've needed to use a courier and the last time I did it was probably boxed, so I think I would blithely carried on - forewarned is forearmed though.
-
Dear hive mind, I thought we had a sticky along these lines but I can't find it through the search function. Can anyone remember if we've reached a consensus as to who the 'best' courier is in previous similar threads? I seem to recall UPS getting a genral thumb's up but promptly turned up a thread with a UPS horror story, so I'm less confident now. It's going to be to have my new Zoot ZB-1000 delivered. It'll be wholly within the UK and will ship in a (probably unboxed) Hiscox lite flite case if that helps anyone make a recommendation. Thanks all.
-
It does indeed. More than a little frustrated that my own latest Zoot ZB-1000 away from being finished and I'm unable to travel to collect at present. Grrrr! Bloody Covid.
-
Hey Peter, welcome to the club - not before time! I hope all is well with you and yours.
-
Me too! My comment was in no way a criticism, simply an acknowledgement of something, I think, we all do.
-
Why do we all buy so many straps?! I've got 3 basses, all with (the same) strap locks, so as easy as it gets transferring a strap from one to the other, but each has their own strap anyway. Not only that but I've been following this thread closely for inspiration for a new strap for a new bass I'm expecting to arrive quite soon. Which will have the same strap locks as all the others.
-
@Cosmicrain- absolutely fantastic work, Mike. It's going to be so frustrating having to wait until Tier changes permit me to come down to pick it up!
-
I'm from Colchester originally and moved to Chester several years ago! Met Mike on visits back to see my family when he had The Bass Merchant in Witham. A few Zoot basses have passed through my hands over the years but it was only about 5 years ago that I commissioned my first custom build from him. You're welcome to pop over (when we eventually can!) if you ever fancy trying any of the three (soon to be four!) I now own.
-
Bloody hell, @Cosmicrain, I'm going to have bass lessons now - I am presently not worthy! That really is quite stunning. I won't know whether to play it or just sit there drooling...
-
F**k me, @Cosmicrain, that's porn! I think this may be the best yet, Mike. Thank you. 😊
-
Looks superb.

I just linked to it okay. Just had to tick one of those 'you are not a robot' things that asks you to click on pictures with various things in. -

It's that time again. That time being when it dawns on me, yet again, that I can't be arsed learning how to use the latest multi-fx pedal I've bought (well, bought about 2 years ago in this case). Over the years I have made a habit of purchasing the latest 'must have' multi-fx pedal and have had a Zoom B9.1u and a Boss something-or-other in the past (possibly more, I forget) before picking this fabulous (if you are anyone other than me) Zoom B3n a couple of years or so ago. I really don't know why I keep doing this but this is the latest device that I plugged in for a night or two after it was delivered, got really enthusiastic about the huge variety and range of high quality sounds I found, then put back in the box and left it largely untouched save for one or two half hearted attempts to master it since. It's not like it's even complicated, it's simply that my age (57), but mostly my low boredom threshold, mitigate against ever making full use of this great pedal. If you are reading this you likely already know all about. At least I hope you do as I am woefully under qualified to do justice to the comprehensive range of effects and amp simulations it offers, as well as looper and drum tracks too. Here's what Zoom says if you d need the blurb: https://zoomcorp.com/en/gb/multi-effects/bass-effects/b3n/ Anyway this is genuinely like new, having had the most minimal bedroom use only. It's boxed and bagged, complete with PSU and instructions, and a list of all the effects etc. it has. It's just wasted on me. Price includes delivery to mainland UK. My feedback's here: And photos of yer actual item for sale here:

Ooooh, you bugger Mike - you didn't tell me you were updating the thread! 😁 Very happy with these. And I think we chose the right sized dots too!

Does this win the record for the longest dormant thread prior to resurrection - 9 1/2 years?!
