They all have P pickups, even the Telecaster. That's ground zero of the last 40 years of Fender innovation. The world ends on the 16th.

Make sure your bass is set up to your taste and the intonation is spot on. Then enjoy it, recording is a cool experience, and don't put needless pressure on yourself looking for perfection. Music is about emotion, not robotic precision.

Anyone who thinks they're composing by typing a few prompts into an AI generator is just a little wide of the mark, no? It would be a grave mistake to mix it into the existing competition.

Did you recently say Leo didn't get it right first time, by any chance, or even possibly just think it?

That's the way to go to hospital for some tetanus shots.

I'd try T-Cut before sandpaper.

Expect to pay 25% extra on everything second -hand and, as mentioned above, sone shops (only some of the biggest ones) will have their accounts set up in a way that they can sell with UK VAT and import duties applied so you don't get the hit once it arrives. Contact the shop before you buy to make sure you don't pay their country's VAT too.

I'd wager most of the general public wouldn't know what a bass guitar looks like, never mind the owner of the fingers playing it.

Dennis Taylor from Duran Duran ... Hulk Hogan

Finally, after all these years, a blue P bass!

I just don't understand why anyone would bother writing something so intentionally derivative. It's utterly pointless music, to me.

The band says... "Due to a continuing pattern of behavior and the mental health difficulties of our singer Perry Farrell, we have come to the conclusion that we have no choice but to discontinue the current US tour. "Our concern for his personal health and safety as well as our own has left us no alternative. We hope that he will find the help he needs. "We deeply regret that we are not able to come through for all our fans who have already bought tickets. We can see no solution that would either ensure a safe environment on stage or reliably allow us to deliver a great performance on a nightly basis. "Our hearts are broken. Dave, Eric and Stephen".

Grand, except Farrell wears in-ear monitors.

Hard luck but well done for having a go 👍🏻

Translated: Hello everyone! I'm an amplifier repairer. I would need the service manual of the Ashdown EVO II 500 ampli equipped with JBT Sanken ends. Thank you all!

And the new one on Spotify too

Yes.

A lot had habits but the real question was whether they used before playing or after to pass the time travelling to the next gig. I recall Dave Mustaine, himself an addict, talking about gigs where the drumming would start slowing down to a stop because Gar Samuelson, a truly gifted drummer, was falling asleep at the kit due to using before they played.

That's the JAN 1. The JAN 2 was dreadful, it had thin tabs at either end which broke if you even thought about them from many miles away. The JAN 3 is in the OP's pics and is like the Alembic adjustable nut but without the feature which allows you to lock it to the baseplate.

Ahhh here it is

I thought we had a thread which recorded all that before? Andy won.

Drugs don't give you ideas, otherwise every junkie would be a sleepy, staggering Bach. They just tend to relax the parts of your brain which shut down ideas. The ideas are already in you, or they are not in you, but drugs don't add anything. Learn to relax and let your creative voice speak up a bit. You don't need drugs to do that, just a bit of control of your own mind.

Drugs only make you better at being an a$shole.

She did attend. That's the point. She says it in her statement. The real purpose of why she was there, well, we'll each believe what we want to, I suppose, but I'd recommend doing some reading on intimidatory tactics used by Scientology, just so know fully understand what you're readily dismissing as "trash".

It's one side of the story. The other, to save people googling https://blabbermouth.net/news/linkin-parks-emily-armstrong-responds-to-danny-masterson-support-claims-i-misjudged-him And for anyone wondering why she was asked to attend, attempts to intimidate witnesses, prosecutors and anyone else who conspires against them in cases against Scientologists are not rare. https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2024-04-04/church-of-scientology-danny-masterson-prosecutor-harassment-allegations
