We are called Garrison Lane. The original band members could not agree on a suitable band name back in the late seventies then one of them had to go on an errand to the Lucas factory in Birmingham and passed said Garrison Lane on his way, he put it forward the other members loved it and it stuck. Please note that this was well before Peaky Blinders became a tv hit.

Welcome to the throng Colin.

Seems like an interesting bit of kit ped👍 Any piece of tech that gets kids into music is worth it.

Has he contracted that rare disease Pbassitus?

It would only need a quick hover to get a clean sound out of it.

Welcome to the fold Peter.

No good for me as I never play down that end of the neck.

I also have a bulging disc which the physio reckons comes into contact with the nerves around it when my pain flares up. I do morning execises but it is a very light regime compared to some of you guys, basically managing it more than cure. Not sure what caused mine but it used to show itself most when opening the tailgate of my car? Like mentioned previously lightweight gear although I can manage to pick up the pa cabs these days.

Welcome to the fold videoangelus.

Would the Warwick 2 x 8" cab (produced for the Gnome amp) be domestically suitable?

Is there anyway swapsies could be added to the 'Wanted' section?

It would be worth posting your requirements in the 'Wanted' section of the classifieds.

Good to hear progression is being made and I hope everything keeps getting better for you.

Amazon have good prices on the Rotosound RS77LD, LE and SM77 monel flats as well.

I'm not a fan of that bass it looks ugly doubly so at £450 although the seller appears to be open to offers. I'll start 50p....

Have a look at Newtone strings, their Platinum series have a smoother wind and are available with either a round or hexagonal allowing a choice of tension which could help in reducing soreness.

That Kala 5 string looks really nice Smanth. I would think the wider neck probably feels better and easier to play than a skinier 4 string uke?

I can't think of any problems except that they may take a little while to tune and bed in. Clean, check for rust and try😁

I use Rotosound RS77's on a couple of my short scale basses.

There is a Beringher U-Phoria UM2 for sale (Sprockets part 3 post) in the Accessories classifieds or a Vox plugin headphone amp in the Effects sales thread.

Drop a PM to Chienmortbb.

+1 Have a look at Barefaced cabs, there seems to be a few in the classifieds at the moment.

I am happy with my Kala Nomad which is one up from the bottom of their range (I think) and one of the reasons for going for it was that common parts appeared in higher priced models so there should be a consistance in quality and the fact that it had a truss rod which some lower cost ukes do not.
