    Made all the more sinister by the human entrails hanging from Paul's mouth...

    Is there a 'preferred' hotel or pub in Uttoxeter for anyone doing an overnight?

    Well was able to unwind the amp/cab combination tonight. Two rehearsals with two bands in a week, and loads of positive comments on the sound.

    It's a Glenn Hughes signature model.

    To get my sex on fire, all I have to do is make my burritos with ghost chilli sauce.

    I am pretty sure a mashup of Mr Wendel and Steppenwolf (song not band) would work. He walks alone in the gaslamp shadows Dressed somberly as a man. Mr Wendel.

    The obvious answers are: Taper the spacer, unlikely to work even if the pickup to neck distance is large and only one pickup. Pad out neck pocket. Cut body in half cross-wise and have a step in its shape. Use different pickup. Use different neck. Pickup cover.

    A mate tried to sell me an 8x10 earlier. I said 'I have a 2x12 that's probably louder than the 8x10." 🤣

    I'm sure this is true. I use thumb placement to change my tone, and I can get as much variation between bridge and bottom of the neck as between pickups.

    On the E-string the movement is almost perfectly cancelled out by the change in intonation. Personally, I think it's a mistake to assume different is better.

    That makes me feel all squidgy inside, like a teenage me talking to a girl...

    LOL! I've got jack sockets from the 70s somewhere that use that sort of contact arrangement. I would be surprised if they weren't 10-20 years old when I got them.

    Photoshop.

    I've got the AT212 slim, it's incredible. That's why if I get another small cab it's ideally REALLY small.

    Got to be red 🙂 Plus in this era of 24 hour rather than 28 day delivery I fancy the idea of delayed gratification. The alternative is a custom green GR AT110, which would cost twice as much, but is a zero risk option.

    But it isn't black... 🙂 For £18 I've ordered one to see how it turns out.

    And look at this for a no-name Bitsa with great sound... Look at that professionally finished control plate!

    Your Google-Fu is weak. Try searching 'Henry Thomas Bass'. https://www.mizarolli.net/bass-lessons.html It's a terrible website, but the Henry Thomas page has his email 'prominently displayed', shall we say 🙂

    GM had a reputation for saying uncomplimentary things about everyone...

    The prices they achieve are ridiculous considering the quality and playability. Less than a MIJ Squier P-bass of the same era.

    I've ordered a red one, it will be about five weeks 😞 With a main loud, light cab/head setup that will do almost anything, this is just an excuse to turn my backup Elf amp into a grab and go. If it doesn't work out, I'll get a GR 110 instead.

    Went down a damned rabbithole, rediscovered Jet Boy Jet Girl… and noticed it sounds the same as C'est Plane Pour Moi. Apparently it's the same backing track.

    I won't say I told you so. Yes I will. I told you so.
