    I quite liked it though I did feel there were less exhibitors which was a pity. The venue is less travel for me so I'm fine with that.

    The main source of unamusement was that the guy who entered his kid to win the stingray is trying to flip it on eBay right now for £1600. That's a bit irritating. Like its went to a guitar player who won't even appreciate it.

     

    What a surprise... ¬¬

    Don't know what they expected when they gave a 2K bass to a 7 year old kid

    Went last year and this year. To be honest I don't think I'll go again. Open-space workshops surrounded by bass and guitar amps is as stupid as it sounds. The other workshops in separate rooms were very interesting. I expected to find much more to try and in a way that it is easier for everyone to sit down and try stuff.

    New Cort basses

    The Corts I have tried all had an amazing feel and they seemed built really well. The problem is that I always find the sound very sterile and uninteresting, often quite empty and canny.

    I think I just don't get along with Bartolini pickups.

    Paul McCartney: Overrated or What?

    Are we actually discussing the possibility of McCartney being overrated? I can understand Beatles may not be your cup of tea, but really? o.O

    For me he is one of the best bass player ever existed. Immensely creating, bass lines that could stand alone and be appreciated as a whole song, but still perfectly fitting and functional in each song. For me he was simply perfection.

    MXR M87. I am still not able to perceive and play with the nuances you could get, but this has as the gain reduction leds to allow you to see what it is doing, and the minimal settings I need. I keep it on all the time in the background.

    Traben anyone?

    If you remove that pickguard and get a better looking bridge, you may have a winner! Although I still don't like how they placed those pots... But after all sound is the most important thing, so well done to you!
