I hate to tell you this, but I think your budgie has escaped

No not at all. But if you want to read that into it thats fine.

Listening back to the recording of Saturday's gig, I came to the realisation that I am finally happy with my bass gear — at least for now. When I look at basses for sale, I don't feel tempted by them for long as I know any new bass won't be taken to a gig in preference to one (or two) of my JMJ mustangs. My Ashdown ABM 600 Evo VI sounds mighty in a way my old markbass LMII could only dream of. I don't own the cabs I play through as the band already had a pair of Ashbown ABM cabs when I joined and although they are blummin' heavy compared to my own Schroeder 1212L, they work really well with my ABM 600. My pedalboard has been in a state of flux for a while and I feel that it has now reached its final form: Boss TU-3w Tuner -> Boss SY1 Synth -> Boss BC-1X Bass Comp -> Boss BB-1X Bass Driver -> Boss AW-3 Dynamic Wah -> SFX Micro Thumpinator The only always-on pedal are the Bass Comp & Thumpinator, the others get used sparingly but were all utilised at Saturday's gig. The SY-1 doing a brilliant Organ doubling the bass line which probably had people looking for a non-existant keyboard player in the room

...and in a similar vein: The Gigalo *unts

cu*ting crew

Fuggin-ell! It shot up to £232.57 in the dying seconds. Someone's going to be disappointed...

Shut Up 'n Play Yer Guitar — Frank Zappa

I won the day once but never received my prize :o(

On reflection, I think if you contact Thomann, rather than sending a new adaptor, they'd probably send you one of these -> https://thmn.to/thoprod/350932?partner_id=31190 Which isn't ideal, but it wouldn't be as wobbly as a shaver adaptor

Eddie And The Hot Sods

The Four Toes

Have a Nice Day — Killing Joke

I'd get a Boss BC-1X Bass Comp and a Boss BB-1X Bass Driver — which are coincidentally the latest additions to my pedalboard.

I don’t think there has ever been a plastic cover for that style of pickup — I’ve certainly never seen one, they’ve always had the bobbin exposed.
