They have a torzal in bass direct

Yes. one of my previous bands videos had a copyright strike by the rights holders of Human Leagues 'Don't you want me baby'. I wouldn't have minded but the song was actually 'Ever fallen in love' by the buzzcocks, and we weren't that bad. I appealed, the strike went away and never heard anything else. We only needed it once for playing the Motor Museum at sparkford. And then noone actually checked.

Lets hope you remember to look at the last box, and don't end up trying to tune to S W F X

I suspect that the decision here was made over 2 years ago.

Sadly yes! I prefer the tone from roundwounds too, I barely use flats apart from the one bass, and I certainly wouldn't be one trying to persuade anyone to do so, my comment was purely that if the problem was that you overslid due to the shineyness of flats, that is just habit.

No reason to bother if you don't want to, but using the reason that you don't want to use flats because their response is different to what you are used to doesn't seem like a particulary helpful reason. In the same way we could say, why bother with another bass, why bother with a different amplifier, why bother trying different playing techinques, why bother with different music types etc as they would all be different to what you where used to. Perfectly reasonable if that is what you want, but seems an odd reason. Maybe some things could be better. Not as good a reason as 'I don't want to'. I mean, I don't really like flats, although I have them on one bass (a squier mustang) where they work, and where I also overshot at first, I don't now, its a different scale and a different type to the others, and I play it its way. Its just habit and muscle memory

I am sure he will write a song about his struggles to earn a crust with all these cruel people ripping him off

Undoubtably like any change, but as flats last forever, that is just a question of getting used to it isn't it?

I have boycotted him for years, I don't think he has noticed yet. But you know, if you have his musical output until the mid 70s, you pretty well have everything.

Works on my Safari - odd that there is something that wouldn't work, its not like there are any webdesign techniques from the last few decades used! Didn't it say on there there were looking for someone to do them a website at some point, or was it on the emails?

My last gig before the guitarist left was 2.5 weeks ago, the new guys can't start until march or so. when the guitarist left he said 'seems like the timing is going to end up alright for having to be out gigging'. Maybe he was right, but then i caught a nasty cold at that gig and was ill for the next two weeks.

We had one a couple of months back, the guitarist wanted to pull out from a gig, eventually we managed to persuade one of the new guitarists to cover it, then it turned out he was actually playing another gig the same night and had forgotten, so we got another guitarist to cover it, then the singers son got covid so we had to call off. Then on the day it chucked it down so much they had to cancel the entire event anyway.

I must admit although I have played it at every gig and most practices, mine still doesn't feel indispensable. If I lost it I certainly wouldn't go out of my way to replace it.

Mine are about the same volume as the rest of my basses, which is not surprising as the rest of my basses mostly also have nordstrand pickups too! I wouldn't want a 6db baked in boost on the preamp, any preamp that actually sounds different from passive when flat is broken in my book. I think if I wanted it to be a hotter output I would just put that on the pedalboard. The only things I ever wanted to change the level on was the MFDs on the G&L2500, they were a bit crazy and the wizzard pickups on my own bass, also very hot.

Why? Its two octaves out of the whole range of the piano. You have to start the scale somewhere. The piano only starts on A because beethoven kept making lower chords, but I don't think he ever had a bassstation!

Most synths have a reasonable bass sound in a mix, just get one of those and find a bass sound you like.

Definitely sounds dud. I am guessing out of warantee?

I have a 24" Asus 2560x1440 IPS screen that was £180. For that sort of money I would want something higher res. I mean this little 16" screen is 3456 × 2234

Thats par for the course I am afraid. I always do an 'excuse me, heavy speakers coming through' and if they don't move, the heavy speakers come through.

I have one of these and have used la bella nylon tapes. Obviously not together. I can't see a technical reason that it wouldn't work, as the clamp would probably work (I remember the tapes being a bit wider) but it isn't something I would try. However, the basses are very bright (the norstrand ones), so maybe the tapes would tame it all down

I hope you got a discount as it was used

Sounds like it is broken. Having said that, why are you reducing the voltage to 7 volts on the power supply? I assume it still doesn't work properly on 9V?

Yes, ibanez wiring can seem a bit excessive as they have one wire per every connection, so 3 for each of the volume, bass, treble, mid, power and jack, normally in one strip along the side in quite a large connector. So when you say the mid is not working, does it sound like it is just flat or cut or boosted? Not had too much trouble with ibanez boards and the wiring is normally robust (or maybe over robust), but worth checking out the cables. The wiring diagram for the generic 3 band EQ is somewhere on one of the ibanez threads on here.

Always loved the mini, i have a 2013 with an ssd drive i use as my music computer, eventually it will update to an m1

In part of the other trial, it was dismissed with prior art, including fleetwood mac, dreams, presumably as it has the lyric 'players only love you when they are playing', as it also has the phrase Players gonna play, which is the name of the other track.
