👆 this, completely and totally 👆

I've had a couple of basses that used to pick up taxi radio chatter but only when the active batteries were running low.

Twelve Babychams please...

Our work here is done, whose round is it?

Give Piano Pavilion a call, I'm sure they can give you advice.

...and why a lot of upright players use AER amps. I used to have the AER Basic Performer, lovely amp but it didn't sound as good as the QSC.

I was on exactly this quest as I wanted my Rob Allen Mouse to sound as much like an upright bass as possible for some songs. I found the best sounding to me was to use a QSC K12.2, even without a preamp, just bass straight in, it sounds great and very upright like.

Just bought a lovely JMJ Mustang from an equally lovely @Brucegill. Excellent, painless transaction, a real pleasure to deal with. So firstly I need to declare him a scholar and a gentleman and secondly award him the entirely un-coveted Frank Blank Seal of Approval... Cheers Bruce.

Having an early bonfire night Stubbs old man? Or do you need new oars for your fleet of coracles?

Can't get it to work on my Macbook, it's ok on my phone, probably me. Edit: as soon as I typed that 👆 I got on... 🙄

a) Who is the best guitarist or not or where they rank on someone's list is purely subjective. b) No one musician is inherently better than any other, just different, appealing, or not, to individual tastes. c) see a) and b).

My current favourite...

In your opinion. Therefore, my statement about it being opinion remains my opinion. I would much rather be considered absurd and obsolete than just plain rude.

FTFY

RIP Sinéad...

I just tried to set this to record, probably best to mention it's this coming Friday 28/7.

I am only just beginning to realise that my ridiculous form way over function habits are what has a) cost me a lot of money over the years and b) had me scratching my head over why I am never satisfied tonally. Some very good advice on here had me buying a compressor recently that I'd never have given a second glance to a few months back. It's ugly but exactly the right compressor. I am hoping this lesson will have me making much better gear purchases from now on. Cheers @Osiris.

Great news, enjoy your new role!

Paging @Smanth

Well, here we are months later, and I find my regret at selling the Acinonyx, far from diminishing, is actually growing! @nordygrrl, does the V2 come in black with a tort pickguard? I've seen it in black but only with a white parchment guard.

Ah, see, that's where I went wrong. Stupidly I got my plastic meath from Pitsea market, no wonder it broke so quickly, a gold or silver meath is obviously an investment worth making.
