Has anyone worked out how to get rid of the little orange privacy box yet?
I don't know why I find such a small thing so irritating and distracting, but I do.
On my phone screen its floating over the posts I'm trying to read!

Add a set of 70s retro “Realistic" brand headphones
I had a set of Prinzsound 909s a while back:
Lovely leathery head strap, but they were electrically past the point of saving. Would have been amazing for reggae too... ah well...
You don't see anybody collecting vintage IEMs do ya?
QED, whatever that means.

Very good point, if I absolutely had to be personally "plugged in", I'd much rather have headphones than some' orrible little plastic things poked in my ears...
Unless maybe you were worried about getting headphone hair. Which is related to hat hair. 😬

Why not just use headphones? At least other people can see why you're ignoring them. 🙅♀️
To be fair, I sound flipping awesome through my Zoom and 'phones. Not a sponsor. 👍

I think it all depends how good you are. Hit song recordings are usually pretty bloody good IMHO. Both in the playing and the arrangement. Even crappy hit song are always* well played... but, if you can do better - Then crack on I suppose.
*we all know Jean Paul Jones missed a note right after the first chorus of Ramble On, so if you were covering that song in a band, would you:
a) Leave it out.
b) Put it in while looking out for other bass players and/or nerds who may have noticed.
c) No idea mate, I was busy jamming in a fill from BSSM!

I have Funkmasters on my J bass because I wanted it to be really twangy. The twang only lasted a few weeks, and the strings are sooo easy to bend when I don't want to (which is most of the time).
I'm trying to make dull sounding Funkmasters a 'thing', but it's not going well to be fair...

Actually quite fancy one but my daughters are anti-pink and would lynch me
Really? That sounds deliciously violent.

Ooo I'm tempted! Hereford is only up the road from me...
OP, have you moved the truss rod to check that it works? And I don't suppose you know the weight of the bass? 👍

Really? I assumed it was because he was constantly sh*tfaced and couldn’t play properly anymore.
That's how he ended up, in a very sad state, but perhaps he hit the rocks because he couldn't fit in with the requirements for a 'modern' session player... 🤷

True. I guess for people of a certain age it’s THE sound of bass. But there’s a good chance if he played that same stuff now he’d have used totally different gear and still been as popular.
Sadly he couldn't get work later in life due to not being able to change his sound. 😔
