    I own a HB Shorty and it is very good and ripe for upgrading if you wish to.

    People of course could just buy British and save the hassle!

    Glad you found out that the wood should look like that rather than there being a problem. I know the colour in photographs is not always accurate but I like the look of that fretboard finish.

    I would add the Vox Pathfinder Bass 10 as being a good compact and convenient practice amp.

    I picked up a Getaria GWS-8 2.4ghz wireless system off Amazon. It is doing the job so far and I am getting around 4 hrs use before the transmitter battery is fully discharged. No noticeable latency although they quote <12ms (then again I'm only 3ft away from the receiver) put I don't go through a pedalboard. I purchased to use at home (and hopefully at rehearsal) in order to get rid of the cables (small room at home and the gear arrangement at the studio), so one test down one to go. Cost of these was under £40 so I've got the sister in law to buy me a second set for Christmas as a backup.

    Another thumbs up here for Newtone strings I have them fitted to all my short scale basses. Solely use their Platinum type, both round and hexagonal cores , in 50/70/90/110 gauge. The hex cores are slightly brighter and fractionally stiffer.

    PMT look to have an Ashdown Retroglide 800 at £275 pair this with a Barefaced cab like The Big One and you can choose the tone the like for any venue. Light and easy to carry and made in the UK to boot.

    I use a Tascam GB 10. It's loaded with the set list plus new songs. You can balance the output of the guitar against the recorded songs as well as adjusting the input. It has a lot more features as mentioned in the thread above but is handy as you can run it off batteries, the mains and I am currently powering it from a 7800mAh powerbank. It's a highly versatile and compact device.

    feedback for Deedee

    Just picked up a cab from Dan meeting him at a mutual destination. The transaction as well as the communication has been first class throughout. It was good to meet Dan, the cab was as you described, and it was nice chat although only brief. I have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone. Many thanks.

    Bas recently purchased a Zoom pedal from me, first class comms and prompt payment. As always a true Basschatter, thanks Bas.

    Got Newtone 50-110 Platinum on mine but always thought about trying their Diamond ones on there one day.

    I'll take a set Ped👍

    If you hit Tamworth I could pick it up, but where would the next drop off point be? Down the M6, M1 or M5, living centrally means I could travel down all three.

    I would think that the construction of flats, wider wrap, would possibly prevent the use of flats for through body stringing (have a look at the photo's in the 'flat wound string close ups' thread in 'General Discussion' and imagine how the string would look when bent at 90 deg).😀

    Interesting article, thanks uk_lefty.

    Excellent video portraying an excellent and innovative band. I need to get the vinyl back out😁

    'Meanwhile, can anyone explain what "a linear approach" is, as mentioned in the title of Mr Willis' book? easy words only please.' Toneknob, have a look at the Phil Mann lockdown video's on the Ashdown site. He talks about the linear approach, cycle of fourths and other processes. I think there are 4 videos in total covering fretboard progressions.

    That looks nice, how does it play?
  23. naxos10
    Muse music mix on the Amazon Echo.

    Have a bass with switchable Active/Passive modes and use a pedal if required. My ACG is fitted with a John East pre-amp with this option and I use a Dave Hall VT1 just to 'warm' the sound if required. Generally meets all the requirements I need especially a battery fail.

    I've been bombarded with the emails as well together with the offer of $50 off but that still makes the cost high for something that has such a time commitment. I will admit that the course would probably improve my playing though.
