I put my amp sideways beside the cab. There's no need to lift the amp.

That was so looong ago. Please fix them, if necessary.

Chords? You really need to know chords. This chart for three strings is very old, I did it with a matrix printer and the letters are a bit misleading, but: v = diminished m = minor d = major y = augmented sus4 = 7sus4 It also helps to understand that there are several ways to write chords: minor, min, m, - maj, ^ +5, #5 -5, b5 dim, ° and so on. Play and listen to them on a daily basis.

Before the audition: While going through the songs, use a looper to get a thorough understanding, how do you really sound. Be in time - I repeat this from your excellent notes. I read most of the songs from a tablet. Quite many push the bluish light level very high and look like some people with excessive cheapo makeup in an early metro. Beware. I wouldn't connect myself to an unknown PA if I hadn't the possibility to adjust it before playing. Last week I had a gig where I didn't hear anything, but boom. Gigs from hell. All cables and a spare one have to be with you. Others will not have the one that you need if it isn't with you. You know this if you look at the g-word players. Be professional and polite even though they aren't. Stories are stories, speak less and let the playing show your abilities. Time for funny stories is later. You can tell a very short story about yourself, remembering your musical education, and experience. What else is needed? A car? Do you have to pay rehearsal room? Anything special from their side? Side projects?

I have a beaten Washburn Status copy somewhere. I didn't like the thickness of the neck, nor some parts of the body. One very skilled carpenter removed the lacquer, and shaved the back of the neck quite some. I played that bass maybe four years, until I bought a Modulus. Try to shave the back of the neck. A couple of millimetres will already make a difference.

Few coming gigs have made me busy in the evenings, but I need to take a look at those newer singers in the near future. Thank you for your excellent work, @ChrisDev.

Half? 1 % would be closer to truth. Some even think that P bass with flats is all I ever need.

Dear @Maude, I think your idea is not that bad, but there are issues, too. + lots of sounds + relatively easy from mechanics point of view + I would say the construction is doable - coil construction is somewhat complicated and pricey - coils require lots of space - moving magnet needs space, too - the output level changes, when the magnet moves towards bridge I would opt for a moving pickup, because it would offer the same pros (and some of the cons) as your idea, but a lower price tag.

I asked the seller few weeks ago if he has any, and got one. Ask him.

Why not put the pickups to rails? Or attach them like in Spalt vViper. https://www.spaltinstruments.com/instrument-gallery/special-projects/vviper/

Misa Quadwave would solve the latency issue.

In a similar situation I managed to clean the machine of a girl that I visited a few times. We weren't a match made in heaven, but that's life. This girl had a selection of bag clips which I put to the ball end of a string. Worked exactly as wanted.

For me G&L has always been the workhorse of all these three brands because of the versatility. Especially models L-2000 and 2500 (and Wide-5): modern electronics and 2 pickups. When Nirvana started to use those cheapo and old student instruments, a friend of mine went to US. He came back with a neat G&L and said that Fender prices were sky high while his instrument had a very attractive price tag. George & Leo would be my choice of all his three companies. Well, an old Sabre could be close.

Most likely not. To kill an opamp you would need a very big electromagnetic unit used in hospitals (MRI scanner) and the IC could still survive.

One more: which power are you using with pedals? Have you tried batteries? I think you are close, as this sounds like DC somewhere.

Please include the whole system: bass, fx, amp.

If the magnets can be taken away, they can be replaced or magnetized. If the pickups are packed into resin, then it is easier to use a specific magnetizer or change the pickups.

Wedding party. We played pretty old songs in the beginning while the audience was relatively young. I messed many details from simple songs because I couldn't hear a thing I was playing. But: second set was much better and the third one was really good. Mercy (that 3rd degree version) was an instant floor filler, and Disco Inferno was super. Humidity was probably +90, sweat sweat sweat. Maybe we sounded like Wet wet wet. One thing was unusual: the party was in time! This was third time ever.

Not even all Aria Pro IIs were very good to play, but Maya, Marchis, Greco et al., no thanks. Zerosette (07) has probably been the most non playable instrument I have tried.

A pretty easy trial is to bypass the preamp. Then you can hear the signal from the pickups only. If there are hi-Z (passive) components like pots and capacitors between the pickups and amp, they also have an effect on signal and sound. Every hi-Z pot is a tone-like LPF that cuts highs. I would like to add that strings and setup (including pickup height) are also two important parts of the sound.

Fast Licks Available Through Stainless rws?

The player here uses eyeglasses, I think Freddy doesn't. Getty Images has some pictures from the show.

This is complicated. I want to point out that if we look back at the history, we should be aware that today's social media is faster and far more aggressive to judge people compared to historical composers and musicians. If we dig any deeper, there are many, many very controversial opinions said out loud. Such that today many would nail those persons right away. We are wiser than ever before - so was the people in Germany in the 30's. Still I read news on a daily basis which tell me about wars, famine, dictators... Why it is impossible to solve problems instead of cause more of them? If Roger Waters supports Russia instead of Ukraine, Pink Floyd still has a few good songs. Prokofiev, Wagner... let's not go to this. As was seen from @Beedster's flag example, there are lots of loud people who do not understand satire at all, although satire can be done like Kenny Everett did: with the best possible taste.

...to burst to pieces?
