If you're running utilities, then run wired ethernet as well. Cat6 from your routed to the studio, then a wifi point there. It will be a million times more reliable.

The problem is that NONE of the bass cases have a waist strap like a rucksack. Even a titchy 20l rucksack has a waist strap and it makes a difference. I can carry well over the 10kg of my Armourdillo case+bass in my expedition rucksack no problem- because the hips take the weight and the shoulder straps provide stability. While the Armourdillo is OK, I wouldn't go for a hike with it.

So did I. I think this and "Eliza Holt" are my two favourite songs, but the whole album is great.

That is what Andy is trying to avoid isn't it? Unrelated news - I have permission from my better half to build a workshop at the end of the garden!😃

I came across some luminous powder a while back, but I can't find it at all now. I seem to recall it was used to fill outline shapes, then epoxied over (something like that anyway) I googled "Luminous powder" but all I got was some sort of make-up! https://www.lookfantastic.com/l-oreal-paris-true-match-powder-glow-illuminating-highlighter-golden-glow-9g/11708609.html

This chap opened for Fairport last month. Just a story 'bout a country boy offering a girl a lift home in his new wheels.

The pallet itself looks great as is. How about not doing anything at all and calling it a Bass Washboard?

No worries 👍 If @Geek99 says it's a good bass, then it is. 😎

Hi Roberto, Welcome to the forum! This is really just a "Hello " thread with bit about yourself. You have quite a specific question about what people think of that bass so you might do better to post it in the Gear thread. I'm afraid I can't help, I've never owned a Fender, but plenty of other have.

Welcome aboard! Lots of members here from Spain. You'll bump into them, or ask on Off Topic.

Welcome aboard! Nice gear, I see @charlybasse is already hovering like a vulture 😁

Welcome aboard! I was going to ask where in Stroud you live, Stroud being a small town just south of Gloucester. Then I looked at your profile and it seems you live in a huge country just south of Canada.

Welcome aboard! Yeah, you're a bass player. It is apparently curable but who would want that?

Welcome aboard! Go on, what are you hunting for?

Absolutely this. If I am in the congregation then I can worship. If I am playing, running the sound desk or manning the video feed then it's work and that is what I am concentrating on. Even if the band are in full flight and you can hear the spirit moving in the congregation, if I'm on the desk then I am listening and making sure everything is working, not participating. Which is why too much time supporting is draining. The only time that is different is preaching. That isn't work in the same way as all the prep is done and then it's up to the Lord how the delivery shifts depending on the unknown needs of the congregation, and then there can be a very definite sense that one is delivering God's words. I imagine if I was as experienced playing bass then the same could be true of playing, but I don't think so. Preaching is being a channel for the spirit, all the physical aspects of worship are, for me anyway, enablers for the congregation.

My singing is usually tolerable for a few bars then goes all to pot. To those who keep saying "anyone can sing" then I have to reply "by the same token anyone can spin bowl". I would like to be able to sing, I probably could learn to sing, but I know it would be a hard slog and I would prefer to spend the time practicing bass 😎 Good on you @Sardonicus. Both for singing and for putting in effort to become better at it.

Yes, yes it is. And if your indestructible fretboard breaks Andy then the entire forum will be round your way with pitchforks.
