I guess you can think of them as different instruments.

When the music stops…

That is an ugly bass.

I was chatting with the Bright Onion folks last weekend. The Ninjafox has the same profile as the Stomp and a light surround to the switches.

I set up on the stage, but the smaller rooms with several people in seemed a bit cramped.

I find the HX Stomp affects the sound even with everything off, so I run mine via a looper switch so I can take it out of circuit. I have a Ninjafox 2-button momentary press with a TRS cable to the Stopmp's expression/control jack input, which I have configured to do bank up/down. I've got a Morningstar MC6 connected to my C4 (via a Neuro interface on the underside of the board), but I've yet to program it.

I went; I did see a nick plec box on the JC guitars stand - they make them from the offcuts and include one with customers guitars. I had a chat with several folks at their stands, but didn't buy anything and came away with a couple of freebie tins from Bright Onion and NRG Effects. Went to Brighton afterwards, had a stroll around and a meal, then left Westwards as there was a major hotel fire (the police told me everybody got out OK).

I think that the one in the picture may have just been available at that photo shoot rather than actually his. I didn't get round to doing it up and sold it on to someone else who did a really good job of it. TBH, I half bought it because I had promised someone one of the knobs they had, so when I sold it it had one less on it!

If it was a few years ago, I bought it! There's a picture of Bill Wyman playing one, but they didn't claim that it was actually his one.

Good spot - that's the wrong picture I posted (it's a 2010 4003)! This is the one it was supposed to be (with the blue '78)...

Is on the wall of the shop or was?

Shaftesbury, Japanese, 70's, Chushin Gakki, thru-neck. Upsides: nice - just about at the top of the tree for fakers, pretty much as near to a real Ric as you can get for factory produced, mono and "Stereo-Sound" outputs, Ric-compatible parts (except tuners). Downsides: the binding can start to come away on the inner edges of the neck cutaways, the tuners could/should really have been better, they are susceptible to neck-lift just like real Rics, why did they put the upper strap button there? I used to want one of these back in the 70s too, but I managed to go straight to a Rickenbacker (which I've still got). This is a CMI sibling I had, next to a real '78 Ric. (Oh, and I bow to @Bassassin's knowledge on most things faker!)

I once worked for a company which had an employee sell customer details (it made the news); all of the contract staff were marched off site.

I would strongly recommend never using PayPal F&F unless the person actually is your friend or family. If they insist, just step away. I had it happen in an FB group just this week; someone had something in the UK which I wanted and would have otherwise cost me double from the US after shipping & fees. The seller would not budge on F&F, even when I said I'd cover the fees for G&S, so I didn't go through with it. Just don't pay for goods using F&F.

A Squier Jazz should do the job.

Buenos dias a Buenos Aires!

I wouldn't be up for doing a lap of the M25 (but that's just me and others might be good with it). It was a bit of a shame that the usual place has lost its main hall, though.

More disdain than dislike.

Money for nothing - what a sponger!

I used to play my Ric's Treble channel through a Carlsbro Stingray head into a 4x12.

Can't wait for the video of him playing it! 🙂

I think there were people from the bands in this thread, something about owing them money...
