Hanging Around, Sometimes, No More Heroes, Princess of the Streets, Golden Brown, Something Better Change and for a bit of a change, Mach dich lieber anders tot.

I'm using a TC Electronics Nova Dynamics if that's any help. No longer manufactured unfortunately, but worth looking for SH if you can. IMHO anyway.

I think we killed it, at least, it's not there anymore.

Nichts auf bassic.de?

When did Fender start doing the big under scratchplate routing? Just thinking it may not be a genuine Fender body given the lack of routing. But I'm not a Fender expert by any stretch.

No, I am not buying @Dannygno123's P-Bass to fit in with the look.

I appear to have just joined a Stranglers "Tribute" band.... I was a bit indifferent to the idea initially tbh. I'm aware of them but just the odd song on compilation albums or playlists, but then I started trying to learn the lines. It's given me a whole new appreciation for them and JJ. Are there any decent tutorial/score resources out there for the bass lines? I'm not terribly good with ear learning from record and I like to have something to read along to as I go, in the early stages a least.

Princess of the Streets - Stranglers. It's not terribly complicated and the little runs in it are fun, but it's such a bass driven song there's nowhere to hide if when you fluff it.

Is it as sketchy AF as previously thought?

I can't help with the carnet info, but prebook your Oresund Belt ticket. It makes crossing the bridges a damn sight cheaper than just turning up and crossing them. https://www.oresundsbron.com/en/tickets

I've got my enclosure, beautifully packed... Of course, now I've got it it looks far too small, despite me knowing the dimensions of the two things going in it 😉

It's the morning now, and I've had coffee. Or covfefe... Your Tambourinist could look a little more enthused to be there though

I have sort of barrel jacks that have legs on one face, I suspect they're actually surface mount ones, but they have a nut on the outside as well. They will be in less danger of grounding on the case. I was looking for plastic boxes, and aluminium one hadn't occurred to me. Thanks for the help chaps.

I'm looking for something like a Lazy Bear 2 way patch box, https://www.lazy-bear.co.uk/product-page/patchbay-side-load but, not meaning any disrespect to Lazy Bear, or anyone else who makes them, I'm not paying 28 quid for something I've got all the parts for except the enclosure. Which is where you come in, any ideas where I'd get a box from? All the ones my Google-Fu has found are either far too big, or too low to get the jack sockets in. Ideally it would be 50mm x 40mm x 25-30mm. Also, available in the EU without a billion pounds of shipping added Ta everso.

Being sectioned is a horrible thing to happen to you. The hoops to go through to get treatment and be released are convoluted to say the least. My mum was a non-executive director on a mental health board for a while and the days they had sectioning hearings were the days the entire board wanted to be elsewhere. You're stripping another human being of their dignity and liberty for an indefinite period.

Rob is a scholar and a gentleman with the patience of a saint. He did 3d printed pedal board parts for me and didn't, as far as I can tell, go mad in the process. Top chap and a good egg.

I seemed destined to scupper that bands performances. At another gig I got the follow spot set up and used it on them to highlight the singer when he was singing and the guitarist during the solo etc. Again afterwards he was very kind but said the follow spot was blinding him, so please, enough with the stadium style experimentation and just do the pretty colours next time? A good band and a lovely bunch of guys, they must have dreaded coming to the SU after a while

I did lights for the SU for my first year at Sheffield Hallam. Thouroughly enjoyed it, but it ate into too much drinking time so I packed it in after a year. We had a sort of regular rotation of bands so you got to know the faces after a while, unfortunately no-one who went on to be huge so I can't say "I did lights for X at my SU". I ramble... I found the smoke machine one day and thought it would be a giggle to plug it into the desk and out of the patch box on stage for one of the usual rock bands. After the gig the singer came up to me and said "Nice lighting effects this evening Si, but next time, please, no bloody fog, we're not a f******ing goth band!" Apparently the guitarist had gone for a bit of a wander around the stage and nearly come a cropper off the edge in the mist. Oops.

It looks less obviously denim than I expected for some reason. Was that deliberate?

If you don't need to tapdance during a song to go from clean to overdriven to something and back to clean then I would go with a Zoom MS60B or B+ and put the effects you want into the cycle list. If you need to tapdance then a B3n or a B6 would be my suggestion, but I'm a bit of a Zoomer. Options are available from Boss or Line6 as well.

Ain't that the truth. How someone who only learned to walk last summer can be so fast, and able to climb up things that shouldn't be possible to climb is beyond me. The little tyke is now tall enough to be able to work door handles so we have to lock the hall door so he doesn't fall down the stairs or escape out of the front door.

Right, I've called it finished now and put the Nobbs and the control cover on. One thing I'm not impressed by is the pickups. They're nice sounding units and I can't fault their functionality. They're a pair of Delano Quad Core wired P/reverse P in the neck and P/all coils at the bridge. I had hoped for more tonal variation depending on which config I chose but to my ears there's no difference. I could have just put a couple of soapbars in and had done. Ho hum, it's like that, and that's the way it is.

Bit of a resurrection and possibly a long shot, but does anyone know what size the mounting holes in the power bar are? I'm tending towards M6, but really need it confirming somehow. It's M8 if anyone else wants to know.

Or, it could have been the last set of the evening and they were sufficiently lubricated to dance? 😉 I'm sure it was the Squier really.
