Er, I think you’re using them wrong, they’re meant to go on the headstock. Musical prompts on stands, or the floor, or a monitor, wherever, are fine, provided they don’t become the total focus of those using them. I think they should be aides de memoir, rather than a word by word (note by note) guide.

It does seem that there were some batches that had blemishes on them straight out of the pack. Out of the umpteen sets that I have had, I’ve only ever had one string with a blemish and that was in a free set. Others were not so lucky. I’ve bought 2 sets in the last 12 months, no issues and certainly nothing on the older sets.

First one, obviously - Yamaha BB300. First Fender - a US made Jazz. ’63 P, first and only vintage bass. JMJ Mustang, first shorty and my current go to. NS WAV, first upright of any description.

A BiSonic would look (and no doubt sound) awesome on that.

Not the first time we’ve seen this type of thing on BC either.

Ulna The Lonely - Elvis P

Click bait always works, it’s just how much willpower the reader possesses to not actually hit the link. Plainly, @Reggaebass and myself have little of that.

Move On Up - Curtis Mayfield

I Drove All Night - Roy Orbison

Joe using one live.

I Can’t Drive 55 - Sammy Hagar

We Are The Champions - Queen

The Bet’s Too Big Without You - The Police

Likewise. An overblown, overlong piece of schlock opera, with the nastiest, wasp in a jam jar guitar tone ever (what was Todd Rundgren thinking?). I’ve also fallen out of love with the Quo recently, no particular song, although Just Supposin’ grinds my gears; ‘runny nosing’ WTF? The skip function on the Planet Rock app is a blessing.

Against All Odds - Phil Collins

Weed Bus - The Stairs

Listen Like Thieves - INXS

Looking ‘good’, at least it’s still there. Hopefully, it’ll harden up.

The OP’s one certainly soaked up something.

Yup, sounds just like it should do. Very nice.

I saw the Neville Brothers live once, having been turned onto them by a Jools Holland program; they were marvellous.

I hoped against hope for something funky and steeped in gumbo, but no, I was presented with something far more predictable in the UK. Disappointed.
