I didnt lock it and have explained why it won’t be pinned - personally I’d like it still open

I really didnt like the amplug at all, just too noisy and awkward to have to plug your music in via aux. This is a whole new level and has a couple of fantastic extras thrown in which it doesn’t mention.

Just got this. It’s fantastic!! Will do a review shortly. Combined with the Backbeat rumble pack it’s seriously fun!

I haven’t had any ‘threatening’ emails from Mick since Dec 27th. Sort of disappointed.

You mean Lack of Action Fraud

Very nearly had a 3L one of these. I think they look great from the back. Still infinitely nicer than any ‘urban crossover’ you could mention 😄

I remember Leo telling me how much he hated the 1960s era designs, saying he made them 'for a laugh'

Also remember that Leo Fender only really got it right the third time, by then we was working at G&L 🤗

Sometimes you play a bass that defies all logic and just feels and sounds right, be it vintage or new. There’s no shortcut to the top - just get one you like the look of, used, and try it, then get another and compare, keep going and many years later when you’re living in a shipping container you’ll reach the final level. Then someone suggests flats and you start all over again. It’s fun, honest! Side note - don’t limit yourself to Fender although definitely try some of those too!

Yeah it looks quite nifty - my only worry is the lack of onboard compression/limiter (whilst they have included a lot of other 'effects' including reverb which I'm really pleased about). Full review imminently - as I type the dispatch notification has just arrived!

You're all my boys 🤗

Happy to collect for you my man

Bluetooth won’t be possible for that application due to inherent delay. The Nux device shown earlier however allows Bluetooth streaming so you can play music into the device and play along with it. So that’s one less cable.

OK bought one. I’m determined to find a good quality Jack plug practice amp!

This looks quite good https://www.nuxefx.com/mighty-plug.html Might get one to try.

Great looking bass. I always run my 2eq with everything centred to be honest. I’ve found that strings make a huge difference on a stingray so you can have a lot of fun experimenting. Somehow I feel they sound best with ‘dead’ rounds or cobalt flats (I presume they developed those to match the stingray)

Some people are... stupid

I thought anyone but sole traders had to register?

I found mine really noisy. Got rid.

Who supplies your boats, with some Basschat branding that could be a new product line right there (oars sold separately)

You're fine because technically your order was in the last round

Even before Brexit I decided to make them available for UK shipping only, because the carrier I use who takes them in bulk doesn’t do international.

Yeah I’ll get you some in the next drop Dad. Trouble is I’m not doing a drop yet because I’ve got to use a different post service because the (local) UPS depot is closed. I think they can pick up but it’ll mean having a window to buy them rather than having them available 24/7. I might get into it tomorrow and get a batch ready to go. Watch this space!

Also JJ needs splitting to 60s and 70s positions

I just got one of these to replace a Hercules Mini that I lost, then found minutes after loving the order. It’s a great little stand - folds down so small that it fits in a gig bag easy (unlike the Hercules) and feels really stable when deployed. Works best with symmetrical body shapes. The bass doesn’t lean back as much as it does in the Hercules either which is better because the bass takes up less space that way. Maybe a touch less stable as a result though but not by much. I also like that the ‘feet’ that hold the bass don’t stick too far forwards like lots of similar stands designed to take the width of an acoustic guitar too. Definitely recommend if you’re looking for a tiny lightweight stand to put in a gig bag pocket! Not my pic
