  2. I dunno if he preferred it through a valve amp. But I get your joke. I’ve swapped necks on guitars and basses, and can hear and feel differences, but I wouldn’t call my experiments scientific. My eighties Japanese Strat has a baseball bat neck, and it sounds good to me.
  3. I dunno, I quite like the knobs. But then, I’ve got a Strat, so I’m used to them. It’s five string basses I can’t get used to, they look wrong wrong wrong!
  4. Stewart Ward, of Session amps fame, recounts how changing necks on a Telecaster (sorry guys) changed its tone significantly. The stiffness of the necks, due to differing thicknesses, seemed to be the deciding factor, not body material.
  5. Here's my Yamaha BBG4AII. It was fretless when I got it, done by a pro. Plays nice and sounds pretty good, and light as a feather.
  6. Thanks for that. I wonder if any goodies have been added!
  7. You’re welcome, Dennis! Look after my baby!
  8. I’ve got a Sub Ray 4, and it’s pretty well made, in my view, and sounds good. I look of these newer variants.
  9. If you’re interested in the iOS app route, check the Sound Test Room on YouTube. It’s quite annoying with the guy’s hands flapping around, but he shows off the kit quite well. Plus I love his Scouse accent.
  10. Good work! Less landfill and more music!
  11. Cripes! Over seven hundred quids! Erk alors, as The Lone Groover used to say. Seems to be the usual Roland/Boss quality gear.
  12. Very interesting. I didn’t know they’d had a stab at a pitch shifter.
  13. I’m currently enjoying using several iOS apps. Patterning is very interesting, has great sounds and an unusual, creativity inducing interface. Funk Drummer by Lumbeat is also very good, but I truly hate the interface. Lastly, I still go back to DrumJam from time to time.
  14. Lovely job, very cool. can you adjust string spacing on the bridge? Looks like it could use a bit of adjustment, to my untutored eye.
  15. Mine is ‘Valerie’. You know that bit where it doesn’t go how you think it’s going to go? Yep, I mess it up, every time. Jinxed, good and proper.
  16. Get a laptop bag from a charity shop. They work great!
  17. What are the dimensions and weight of the 210, please? Ta.
