    Went to an open mike on Wednesday with two guys I never met before k(guitar and cajon) to jam some stuff shared online. Was a bit ~ (6 doesn't work if the cajon player isn't expecting it) so to finish I called a straightforward 12 bar blues which went fine. Actuallya video shared later showed it was quite good but you can only see my headstock!

    At212 slim. It's the dog's danglies. Loud, clear and faithful to what you play into it, no strong colouration.

    Had a good gig on friday. Someone dexcribed the crowd as 'muso night' so no pressure... in the end we probably played one of our best performances. Even did a bit of call and response with Alex and took an insanely fast solo for Bullfrog Blues. A fair few new songs too which was nice. Great prep for the Earl Haig next weekend😁

    Ok this is me making a meaningless post so I don't lose this thread!
  9. Stub Mandrel
    True, and a good band afterwards would be a bonus. Should have chosen 19 March 'cos we're playing there!

    Flash Bassmop!

    Oh heck it's all coming back to life., Sunday may be... difficult (or not) the EH has bands on at 8pm...

    Headstock mounted cymbal is an interesting innovation.

    They have M&S that far north? 😁

    I've probably already said this, but I keep mine in the car as backup but have gigged it in a small venue to 'prove it' and rehearsed with it.

    But the blue car took the Milky Way.

    So sad to lose Norm, please pass on condolences from us - Neil and Dianne.

    We had a three-sunday-in-a-row residency. A combination of weather and no students saw us playing to handfuls of people. We still got paid, the bar staff loved us, as did the small quota of punters (several of them bought merch!) Can't have blamed us as on their recommendation we got booked at another branch of the chain and played to an almost full room.

    The Description is a catalogue of disasters!

    I set up all my own basses, most of them have recut nuts. I like a low action. But when the action in the shop is around 6mm at the 12th fret you can't make any sort of connection.

    Mine is maple, but with a blockboard body

    FWIW I tried out a brand new Aerodyne (MIJ) with an eye to purchase, but the setup was horrible and I couldn't bond with it. OTOH my Squier 40th P (MIC) was set up to (near) perfection.

    Shouldn't be an issue with uneven spacing as the end holes ought to be ok and its probably just careless setup. I agree that overall bridge alignment out by more than one or two threads is likely problematic.
