    I'm not averse to a charity gig, for a charity with which I have sympathy. If I agree to do it, I'm not interested in any other financial arrangements. I make the decision entirely based on my own parameters. If they're met, I'm ok with it. If expenses are offered (or a fee), it's a bonus.

    Soft southener!! Wait. So am I. 🙂

    If I was auditioning, it would be 3 songs and that's it. If the decision was a yes straight away then I might 'jam' the other 7 but that's a ridiculous ask for an auditionee.
  4. Steve Browning
    Indeed. I confess I was being a smartar5e on this occasion. Your post was very helpful, for which thank you.
  5. Steve Browning
    Point of order, Mr Chairman. Surely, if the action of fretting the string is 3mm, then a subsequent 3mm bend increases the effect to 6mm.

    That's an awful introduction to live playing and commiserations for having to endure that. There certainly are some guys who are happy to be a big fish in a tiny pond. Good that you came through that and weren't disheartened. I would hope the organiser banned them from playing.
  7. Steve Browning
    Rather an unfortunate attitude, if I may be so bold. Everyone starts somewhere (you even state you first played live at a blues jam, maybe you put other people off?). They can be a challenge when you have achieved a certain level, but it's good to play with novice players and help bring them along.

    Having worked with David Gilmour, I can tell you that he does 5 passes of a solo and creates the final version from those 5. All 5 are amazing of course.

    https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/226501264657 Looks like one is available at £270. 150 watts!!

    Could be the guitar amp shown here, although the 4 knob 'gold' section seems to be missing.
  11. Steve Browning
    Actually, I see they also did a guitar version, called the Power Baby. Never knew that. Maybe the HH amp is one of those. I can't see a bass combo that shape.
  12. Steve Browning
    Yes. I thought Bass Machine as soon as I saw the picture. I have a hunch the other amp is an Intermusic combo. I had an Intermusic head that looked to be a similar design. Possibly this 50 watt monster ...

    Moral of the story? Always wear sunglasses when you go to a music shop.

    They are wonderfully versatile instruments. I have a fretless which is amazing. The necks are especially brilliant.
  15. Steve Browning
    I doubt the cabinet would have been much good with that specification of amp/speakers.
  16. Steve Browning
    Does it have any kind of buffer added to the piezo circuit?
  17. Steve Browning
    Closest I can find weights for are - the above are 61.8g each and the Schaller 70's type tuners (shorter stem but bigger button) are 102g each. Not very scientific I'm afraid.
  18. Steve Browning
    I can't tell you to the gram, but much is an appropriate word.

    Mesa 1x15 combo, with a valve pre and the D350 power stage. Also add the Walkabout radiator.
  20. Steve Browning
    Fascinating reading. Thank you for that.

    Really need a banana to be able to judge the size of the dog, and hence the mixer.
  22. Steve Browning
    I have an Antiquity 335 which is very good. Not a Chibson but similar on the price. The Firefly 335 gets great reviews too.
  23. Steve Browning
    The Haynes Manual for Fender Bass is also good.
  24. Steve Browning
    Not even if you Caine them! 😄
