It makes you terrible - Not for the music stand thing, but if you are one of those keyboard players that have to spend half an hour pissing around trying to get a sound between each song, yes, orders of magnitude worse than a singer who has to have several books in front of them! How many hours have I wasted waiting for keyboard players, using the most presettable instrument known to man, trying to recal some sound. How many songs are you playing, all the keyboard parts for every known symphony or just 30-40 songs that you have played before. Song 10 - right, press present 10. Better still, if you have an iPad, change to the right song, the iPad sets allt he keyboards to the right thing. Also you dont' need half a dozen pianos, in the same way the audience can't tell if you are using a fender P or an ibanez, they can't tell one piano from another!

It doesnt - There is no history of a username and if someone has made a feedback thread, that word on the feedback thread is just a load of letters, it has no connection to the username, unless someone changes it manually.

Are we specifically on music stands (which I hate) or an iPad on a microphone stand (which I have). I mean mainly as I only sing a few songs, the iPad is for the 'where are we on the setlist', so I know what changes are needed on the PA, and to make sure the singer is going to start the right song, and also control the mixer (although I have a surface to do that now that I tend to use more for quick setups). Having said that, when I am singing I tend to have it there as a crutch in case of panic - if I am singing and I have problems remember the words, the bass goes away, and if I am having problem with the bass, the words go away - if any of them require though the other suffers.

I would also say that if I was in a market for a 4 string jazz, I would be interested in that bass, regardless of who she is, light weight, humbucker back pickup, mirror guard, whats not to like!

Regardless to that, as an estate agent her income potential would be orders of magnitude higher than that of a session bass player.

She plays a more budget level ibanez these days, so wouldn't be worth doing a fender custom shop, and its not really ibanezes target market to do signatures

So you have to be a virtuoso to have a signature bass, like Adam Clayton, Gene Simmons or Nikki Sixx?

Shrinkflation!

Oh god, we tried to have that one as a song, and it didn't work, managed to bin it. However, the guitarist keeps wanting to bring it back. It has to be one of the most boring songs in existence to play, and also listen to it. Well, yes, the bass line is two groups of 3 notes all the way through in a never ending durge, followed by a break that on the record is the same pattern on three strings going down, then the recording is played backwards to make it go up, which makes it hard to play as it was never played in the first place. In fact if you go and look on any online tutorial on the song, you will find that they spend 90% of the tutorial showing you how to play the 6 second bass solo and about 20 seconds playing the other 10 minutes of the song.

it would probably be helpful, although obviously noone is going to check your credentials on the day!

That is how I always found them

Message from Her indoors to the Vegan massive at the bass bash: Plans for vegan food: Individual savoury pies (muffin tin size). I’m thinking: - Steak and ale or bourguignon style - Mac n Cheeze with baconny bits - Mushroom, chick’n and bacon A deli board (cheese and meaty slices) A surprise cake for afters How does that sound? looking forward to seeing you all! Sabby

Sabby can get in touch about Vegan additions as per previous years. I assume that your paypal has stayed the same as previous years?

I have paid for loads of lessons. I guess that counts?

Mods can't see the same low level stuff that admins get to see though, so it is trickier there. And regardless to what others do, I try and get rid of that sort of stuff if I know about it.

If you (as in anyone, not specifically you) have doubts as to either whether someone was a scammer or if someone has multiple usernames, then feel free to let us know about it.

Sure is for a bass that he didn't want!

Can't do that, the pedalboard is there.

True, less pisting is good.

I try to avoid using a phone (not just these days, for quite a long time), but I certainly wouldn't use JustEat - its really expensive!

Neither watermarking or using a post-it show you own the bass. It is about not having your images taken and used somewhere else. The trust needs to come from somewhere else

But it is hard to unwatermark a photo that is watermarked

thanks very much for the offer but the strap connections have gone as well, so I think it has had its day!

Having tried both a PJB Bass Cub and BAM200 (and by definition also an elf as the stats are the same) running into a 10" speaker, the PJB isn't even in the same ballpark volume wise. I wouldn't have a concern playing with a band in a pub with a Bam and my 10" Gnome cab, which is what I did a few weeks back (although I have PA backup if it wasn't enough). I wouldn't use the PJB in a band situation, maybe an acoustic duo without a drummer.

Ah - I didn't scroll that far back and just clicked on the reply to your original link. But no, that link "is not available at the moment'
