  1. The clue is in the Thread title my friend.
  2. Totally agree with the Number one, without a doubt..? Who's your number one. https://www.musicradar.com/news/best-bassists-2021?fbclid=IwAR1fT3U2SWe_yOusvDk30Le1DAtSQwL1ZQvuE9CQji1-pNUjmf_oxJc_SQw
  3. My tenpeneth worth is that surely Microbes don't like lemons, therefore they couldn't grow or multiply where the Lemmon oil is present assuming he means Lemmon Oil. Olive oil or any other organic substance may be a different matter though.
  4. Well after my debacle with the Zoom B1four packing up recently, I have experienced a slight mishap today, whilst recording something today ,my take on (Strange town ) I got carried away and the Focusrite 2i2 2nd gen I was using to record with was dragged off of my recoding bench onto a carpeted floor. So after quickly re plugging into my PC using the USB cable nothing happened, no power going to the Focusrite .Oh no i thought ,I haven't knackered this up as well I thought .Anyway after some deliberation I decided to give Focusrite a call, and I can honestly say their customer service was second to none, it was 5.30 pm this evening and they answered the Phone,i told the customer service guy Andy what had happened and he immediately pointed me in the right direction as to why i was not seeing any power going into the unit .He went on to say that the problem lied with the actual USB plug in the machine which was damaged during the drop, a common occurrence he alluded, and he ordered me a new plug FOC there and then ,Now I'm not one for doing reviews but i can say with all honesty that this chap was great with me, so with that in mind I'm giving Andy and Focusrite 5 stars for customer service. Well done chaps, I will report back back if and when the thing is fixed.
  5. Yer i got wrong it was actually the Falkland's he was lost in .
  6. Serious question could the Last Post be played on a Bass guitar, I have an Uncle whose son was lost in ww2,and he's coming round on Sunday for a Slice a Cake and a Cuppa Tea. If it could ?can anyone help me out with the tabs.
  7. So having read all the replies on this, the general consensus seems to be that the Hi Mass bridge doesn't equate to a more vintage sounding tone. But if you did fit one then it would add to the aesthetics of the instrument, hmmm or is the jury still out.
  8. Cheers ,I'm always searching for that classic vintage tone, which Fender claim you'll get more off if you installed one of these.
  9. ?How much of a difference do Hi Mass Bass Bridge's make to a Fender MIM P bass.
  10. Loving the look even more since I changed the white pick guard. Changed the stock Fender strings to a set of Addagio Flat wounds 45 to 100s for the price one cant go wrong.
  11. The only thing connected to my cocktail stick were the remains of this evenings Gammon dinner, they double up as toothpicks as well as strap button repair timber.😬😝😁
  12. There already is bud, its called DPD, in my experience the most professional outfit out there.

    So fed up!

  14. Thank you for all replies, I'm going down the cocktail stick route, I need it for tomorrow so wont have time to return it. Not good for a new Guitar to be fair.
  15. I've only had the Bass a week and I've just noticed that the Strap button was loose to the point it's slightly wobbling, I had a go at tightening it, but the screw is just turning(wont tighten) wasn't expecting this with a brand new Guitar,? Any suggestions as to what I should do ,don't want to strip the threads or something.
  16. I bought a set of Mark Bass strings ( medium gauge 45,65,85,105 flat wound) probably a year ago when there was an offer on. Now these strings feel lovely and smooth under the fingers, and I've fitted them today to my recently acquired Fender MIM P Bass, previously they were on my Yam 424x for a year, but now to my ears on the Fender they are sounding too bright for me when i thought the opposite would apply. Anyway ?anyone else use em on a Mex P and thought differently.
  17. If you're on a budget, these are spot on for the price cant go wrong. https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07MQSFW9R/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&th=1
  18. Now my Zoom B14 is no more,Just a quickie ?If I were to plug a lead into the earphone socket on the Scarlett 2i2 and plug the other end into the effects return on my AMP would i get the same result, but instead of the sound coming through my headphones would the sound be coming through my AMP speaker. I would try it but I don't want to damage my AMP seeing as the Zooms goosed.😁😅
  19. A kick up the eighties.
  20. I don't understand this thing at all, It works for about 8/10 mins then packs in, I think it's going in the bin.
  21. Twisted Biscuit.
  22. Yuppie love ,or Loadsa a money.
  23. WTf,it was working with the different guitar briefly 10 mins, now it packed up again .Losing faith in these now.
  24. Think I may have it sussed. The Jack on the YAM 424x appears to be a loose fit so its working intermittently. I meant to change it ages ago so maybe now is the time to do it . But why would the loose jack cause the Zoom problem with it not displaying anything on the little screen, because after waggling the guitar lead in the jack the screen has now reappeared, so I'm going to try my other bass which I know has a sound jack.
  25. It did but that didn't work. However it did work briefly when i plugged the adapter in which is when i did the reset but it wasn't long before it failed afterwards.
