  1. Mine are not lace but heavy cotton cloths. Even my ears can tell the difference when off. 😀
  2. Yup, have similar on the monitors but remove them when using the monitors.
  3. Yup, I have one of those too for my bass guitars. 🥴 (it was my wife's, honest!)
  4. I think this is quite an enigmatic intro. 😀 Welcome, whoever you are.
  5. I will listen to and also try to play anything except for two types: Country AND Western. 😀
  6. And that is what I do with my studio monitors and hi-if speakers, also with a fine fluffy brush on a stick. I look quite like Richard Emery I do..
  7. Hence the question? I do not know if it does or not.
  8. I do that sometimes when alone in the house!
  9. Perhaps a daft question, but do you remove any dust from the cones of your cab speakers? I live in a very dusty house and now only have my Barefaced Big Twin II to play through. As I try to play most days it is left uncovered and for reasons affecting all of us, the cab has not moved for at least 12 months. The cones therefore have a coating of dust. I do gently dust my studio monitors and the two basses I play regularly (also left out) require dusting / wiping every week, so why not the cab cones? Prior to lock down, I used a combo cab / amp at home the the BTII was kept in its cover when not being used.
  10. I was more saying that is how Bergantino works it, not that Loz may have missed it on his kit.
  11. My Bergantino comes with instruction to always switch on the mute button before switching off. A good simple idea - if you have a mute button.
  12. This and no bass would mean I would probably take up the sousaphone. Phew!
  13. Based on a lot of threads I do not think it would make a difference to this forum, other than perhaps a name change. 😀
  14. I don't think my arms are long enough for below. 😁
  15. Ideally 4x4, although 2x2 would do.
  16. Like this (sadly the last time I was on stage (2019):
  17. Bobthedog

    ?

    Where am I deleting "posted in error" from?
  18. Are talking about one that works on batteries / mains or both? If so, I don't have one. PS Check the latency.
  19. Nice. I also did not know Jimmy Somerville played bass. Cool. 😀
  20. I had that message too. My SOP for all these things is a) check the eMail address per @Hellzero and also b) change the passwords directly on the site, not via any eMail link.
  21. When I have had to take two basses I used two separate cases / gig bags.
  22. Any of the first 6 tracks on the Coldplay X&Y album, which are numbered x1 - x6 or track 6 itself which is called x&y. No idea about Z atm.
  23. Although I have played live, I am very much a bedroom player and unlikely to join a band going forward. I do, however, I have four basses and each is different. A Fender USA P bass, because everyone should have one. Being a 4 string it does not get played any longer, but I will keep it. A Dingwall AB1 V, wonderful and suits the more rocky type of music. A Roscoe Century Signature V that plays across most genres, although I cannot get a decent metal tone out of it and an MTD Fretless which is stunning but with the roundwounds on, very much has a fretless tone. I also have 1300 watts of Bergantino amp playing through a Barefaced Twin II just for playing at home. Why limit yourself if there is no reason to. I get pleasure from playing each of them as the mood suits, live in a detached house surrounded by sheeps and do not have to support any children. Oddly, having just typed that, I realise I have just sold off all my camera gear (two bodies, five lenses, flashes etc etc) and replaced the same with a single fixed lens camera as it seemed silly having the lot. The actual answer is if this is a hobby you enjoy, enjoy as many or as few basses as you wish / can afford and ignore what others opine.
