I could never own a Sandberg, beacuse I would always be fighting the urge to peel off the dots*. *Which appear to have missed the fretboard by a comfortable margin. Today's QC eh?

One gig worth several rehearsals, now you know what to work on.

Me too! Nearly 100 miles closer now.

That's happened to me after rehearsals and gigs on theM4 around 10 times. I hate diverting through Newport.

So Alan and Pete are two of these anonymous blokes? Who are the other two?

So my 'a' weighted device is ideal for proving to pub landlords thst we aren't too loud 😁

Bug in the forum, if you are not on the last page, sometimes it appears not to register the post so you click again...

I have a Lidl one(!) it works and if it is anywhere near the specs printed in the booklet (it probably is) more than good enough for my needs.

Don't forget, the surest way to write a bestseller in the US is to 'explain' why successful people are successful and how you can emulate them. Changing your parents is rarely given as an option.

Is this unported?

You only start to approach true proficiency in any endeavour when you realise just how much you have to learn. I know I am making progress because I finally understand that listening to and watching other bass players and seeing what they do and when and thinking about how it relates to my own playing shows up so many things I could improve.

The fundamental problem is that most amps don't have that sort of data available. Even 'responsible' manufacturers don't give totally transparent information. For example Marshall and Orange give reslistic ratings, but for two very similar designs Marshall rate 50W and Orange 30W, because they measure at different levels of THD. You won't find this in the manual.

KY bass jelly?

Yes. It should peel off the shiny plastic easily enough if I want to remove the bobbins.

Plus, strings don't vibrate in a neat curve, if you pluck near the bridge there will be extra string excursion near the nut caused by the harmonics. Another reason why a slight forward bow in the neck helps achieve the lowest action for all but the most delicate of players.

comment so this is in my feed!

I had this problem with Wilkinsons. Unashamedly used superglue to keep the bobbins in!

It's only a one-watt fan, but it's a Trace Elliot Watt.

Not often amp is bigger than speaker.

Perhaps the most difficult issue is matching speakers and cabs when it is so hard to understand real world output figures. For example, my main cab is rated '900W RMS (AES Standard)’. Not simple to grasp, and I don't know how it compares to real world figures for bass rather than "mixed programme". Is there an aes standard for amplifiers?

I have a PJB C4, the Elf can just keep up with a relatively quiet drummer in a rehearsal using it, but the sound is good. On the other hand with my AT212 which is 4R, I think it would be fine for most situations.
