I have created a Facebook event for [url="https://www.facebook.com/events/254765368291418/"]Basschat at the LBGS[/url]!

+1 for Trevor's Wal blog, and his other suggestions. In addition to those, worth a mention is Ariane Cap's bass blog, part of her teaching site. [url="https://arisbassblog.com/"]Ari's Bass Blog[/url]

Trevor's post has just reminded me that his blog should also be in the list! From his signature: [url="http://walbasshistory.blogspot.co.uk/"]Wal Bass History[/url]

I see that you mention online bass publications, discussion forums and online stores in the same article, so I think you could count among our top 50 [url="https://www.thomann.de/"]Thomann [/url](not exclusively bass-related but my God, the GAS it's always causing us on Basschat is unbelievable!), [url="http://www.bassgear.co.uk/"]Bass Gear[/url], who has recently moved to online-only business and possibly [url="http://www.warwickbass.com/en/Home.html"]Warwick[/url]

When elegant, high-end amp/headphone amp facias have two identical switches, one for Power On/Off and one for Compression On/off, positioned one above the other, on the same side of the facia, and identified by tiny wording. Step forward the otherwise totally marvellous PJB Briefcase and Bass Buddy.

Bridge cavities or saddles that are too small for a flatwound low B. Bridges that are too close to the neck and make proper intonation of the aforementioned low B impossible without taking off the saddle spring. Warwick basses are guilty as charged, but the problem is by no means limited to them. Nuts that aren't adjustable in height at both ends. Almost all makes of basses except Warwick are guilty of that.

I've just created a Facebook event for the bash! [url="https://www.facebook.com/events/1742538699397977/"]https://www.facebook.com/events/1742538699397977/[/url]

That would have been asking too much, I guess...

No experience of the pedals themselves, I'm afraid, but just a note to say that I was automatically presented with the website in English - if you are currently looking at the Italian version, you can switch to English via the Language tab in the top right-hand corner.

The cello is also tuned differently from the DB - in fifths starting from C (two octaves below middle C), IIRC.

This was offered and confirmed this evening. Join us there if you can. 543-545 Kingsbury Rd, London NW9 9EL.

We went to see Dave (TheRev) and his incredibly tight, hugely entertainig band supporting The Wurzels last Thursday. Whole album here: http://flic.kr/s/aHskQSWueT

And the winner is KiOgon!

Actually I had a look at that guitar a few months ago and attempted to set it up, and the problem is that two saddles (D and B IIRC) are seized. Next time we'll take the strings off and deep-clean the entire bridge, and the guitar should be fine again.

You don't have a Christmas tree.

And David Ellefson and Stu Hamm are back.

Will tweet them tomorrow!

The Hideaway on Dec 1st. The lighting was even worse than it looks in these photos.

A bit cramped at Luna Lounge at the end of October:

The East Barnet Festival in July was an absolute hoot!
