    Exactly. A Small would fit me but I'd get XXL to support body positivism.... Then camp in it. In every sense of the word. Whoops.....

    How would you describe the tone of the One10 compared to the SM? And do a pair sound different? Or just louder?

    A sensible strategy. I used to be in a band with a trans guitarist who was actually pretty relaxed about stuff. It just wasn't a topic we ever discussed but equally, not one we avoided. The scariest one was a lesbian acquaintance who was probably the most intolerant person I've ever met. She hates bisexuals, transsexuals and gays. I'm not saying she was representative of all lesbians, just that there are all sorts in this world and one label is rarely sufficient to cover them all

    Price reduced to £120 each.

    I’m clearing out a load of gear and am allowing myself one small piece of GAS. I recently bought a Mazda MX5 (actually, it’s a Fiat 124 spider but that’s still an MX5 in a fancy suit) and could do with a small cab that will fit into the boot to go to rehearsals. I have a couple of Berg CN112s but one of them is just too big to go in. As always with these things, the opening is an odd shape but it’s basically about 12” going up to 14” deep and about 15” back to front. The Barefaced One10 is an obvious contender - possibly two might fit in - and I think a Super Midget would fit. I would only use this for rehearsals - but would still need to hit a decent volume to cope with a manic drummer. I’m leaning towards the One10 but is there anything else I should consider? i use a Genz Shuttle 6.2 and, usually, a Jazz with flats.

    I sold all my sublimation gear a few years ago otherwise it would be cooling as we speak.....

    I think you may have just hit the nail of irony right on the head there. My understanding is that it refers to someone who identifies as neither one gender or the other. They use the impersonal pronouns ‘they’ and ‘their’. Generally, this is seen as being supportive of those who are ‘gender fluid’ or transgender. So unless the band’s post used the term ‘most gender neutral band’ in a sarcastic or demeaning manner, I would normally assume that they were supportive of LGBTQ++ issues.

    I fully agree. We are in the presence of a Master. Out of Interest, I wonder how many of these are the work of the mighty SD? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:List_of_hoaxes_on_Wikipedia

    What's Murtaugh's constant complaint in "Lethal Weapon"? "I'm gettin' too old for this sh!t" I think I need that on a T shirt.....

    I love d’addario chromes. They feel just right, have a good tension and sound just like a good flat wound should. But all of the above is a very subjective opinion....

    The OP later uses the feminine pronoun so I understood that to mean that it’s a she who used to be a he. This is a minefield....
  12. Skinnyman
    Er, “she”....

    I assumed this was copied from Wikipedia but someone must have maliciously deleted the entry. Thank goodness it's been saved here and can be reinstated

    Yeah, right.... 😁

    You had a narrow escape. Could have ended up with a nasty dose of more than the flu. In my youth i wandered into a porn shop in Maastricht. I walked out two minutes later in complete shock. That was the day I realised that everything i previously thought was a bit rude was in fact utterly and completely vanilla

    You do know she's my age, don't you?

    Freudian slip? 😁

    Hi Tony, welcome to basschat.
  21. Skinnyman
    Teebs. Your question answers itself

    I bought a bass from him some years ago. I believe he’s the former bass player with Be Bop Deluxe. Thoroughly nice chap who sold me a cracking bass.

    There's another thread somewhere where I've finally admitted my addiction 😁

    SOLD PENDING THE USUAL I have two Dingwall basses and only have room for one so this one has to go. I have previously listed this but withdrew it as I had interest from outside of BC. That fell through and so here it is again.... It was bought new from Bass Direct in August 2016 and has the following features; 5 String Bass 34" - 37" •Dingwall passive controls, volume, pickup selector (see below), tone. •1. bridge pickup soloed. (in parallel) •2. Bridge and middle in series with each other. •3. Neck (series) in parallel with bridge (parallel) similar to a PJ •4. Neck (series) P-like without being a P clone 3 pickups •3 x series/parallel switches •Two piece swamp ash body •Trans White •Optional rear strap button - £40 (allows to bass to hang 4 - 5 inches over to your right) •Optional Wenge Neck •Banjo frets •Novax® Fanned -Fret System™ •Manufactured in Canada Weighs an anorexic 8lbs Condition is immaculate and the bass comes with the original Dingwall (Levys) gig bag and all of the associated allen keys, strap locks, etc. Price: £1600 or near offer (collected - see below). Trades: I'm trying to reduce the size of the herd so there's not a lot I'm interested in beyond maybe a Barefaced Super Midget or a couple of One10s (and some cash). But try me and see... Delivery - I would prefer not to ship this. In any event, I will not, under any circumstances, ship it outside the UK. Sorry - but I've had too many hassles in the past and I'm just not prepared to go through it again. If you're in the UK and if you're a long-standing and active member of BC with a decent amount of (positive) feedback then please PM me and we'll discuss options/ costs. I realise that South Humberside is a long way from civilisation so I'm prepared to put this in the car and drive quite a distance to meet up - again, please PM me for details. Otherwise, the kettle's always on and you're welcome to come and give the bass a good try out on your own rig or on mine. Thanks for looking Dave

    Really? That's the bit I really don't like. I've just never liked a Tele headstock - not even on a tele. Just my opinion of course - and we all know how little that counts for!
