  1. Beware with this kind of "flat" saddles as you may end up with a (very interesting) fretless sound à la Dominique Di Piazza. Like this :
  2. Just comes back from the luthier... Thanks, but who is that butcher calling himself a luthier ?
  3. Very neat work !
  4. The extraordinary : All (or fully) original, except... (often a list longer than what the item countains).
  5. Wrap (one layer) some very fine grit sandpaper paper around each different string and use it as a perfect file. Go slowly. It's a very old trick used by so many players.
  6. Because it's as good if not better than an OC-2 and is cheaper with better tracking. Check this :
  7. The new Boss OC-5. Period. 😉
  8. As we are at it, be structured, organised and consistent, always using the same pattern for demoing, like the exact same riff played dry and wet. Play fingerstyle (no f*cking useless slap). And if you use different basses, please use the same strings and in the same situation with the same pickup(s) settings. Ideally quite similar basses (not a full maple neck bolt-on compared to a neck though ash neck with wenge fingerboard, for instance) with same setup. Follow @Lozz196 idea with a standard jazz and a standard precision as we all know how they sound. Start with a dry flat setting riff (and show the settings onscreen) and repeat it with the wet settings (avoid extreme settings that are really useless). There are already so many totally useless demos on the web, don't add some... 😉
  9. For Suhr.
  10. In the third world, yes. 🤣
  11. Apparently 8 years...
  12. I'm in favour of how it will be. 🤣
  13. The best idea ever @NancyJohnson !
  14. The WAV is passive indeed. The NXTa is both active (super capacitor) or passive. The other models are fully active.
  15. The NS Design EUB's are active instruments... Did you put a battery in it ? May seem a stupid silly question, but I know a relative who put his car to repair thinking there was a problem, when he was just running on empty...
  16. And you need a ladder to access the tuners...
  17. Funny to moan now when you knew that Brexit meant being a foreigner (alien, if you prefer) everywhere with all the paper(work) hassle it implies... It's not political, it's a simple fact.
  18. He didn't make seven. 🤣
  19. Jannick Top and Philippe Bussonnet, both former Magma bassists are always tuned in fifth, or cello tuning if you prefer, to have an extended tessitura. Jannick Top (73 years old) started tuning his bass like that mainly because he is a classic cellist (and pianist). Philippe Bussonnet (54 years old) adopted the fifth tuning because of Jannick Top.
  20. You took it for yourself, when you were not pointed.
  21. By the way, I'm not rude, but straight or direct. I guess that you're not of the snowflake generation, otherwise we'll be in trouble indeed.
  22. Indeed, it's thousands of Fender's, if not millions... 🤣
  23. I've seen hundreds of vintage Fender's with bad grounding because of a rusted washer on the output jack... Sometimes, you can simply say : You are right, I didn't think about this. There's no shame.
  24. I often play in this "classical" position too, so you have to think twice (or even more ) about the output jack placement ... to be ergonomic.
  25. Never had a car that doesn't start because of this stupid chassis grounding only that has rusted or got loose ? Now you have a non anecdotal explanation and you know why modern cars have multiple chassis groundings.
