  1. Is there a visible difference? My PA amp has 4-pole outputs but I can't see any obvious difference (maybe this just means my bass amps/cabs are 4-pole as you suggest).
  2. Run it around the bridge and the end of the neck. At the bridge round the corners, at the neck follow the profile if the edges of the body.
  3. Then YouTube offered me this. From the ridiculous to the sublime:
  4. Looking classy
  5. Me too. They failed whole generations who could have benefited from a bit of instruction and encouragement. The jokes on them as I never suffered being in a choir, and get to play being a rock star at weekends 😁
  6. The four pin ones are used for things like bi-amping. Haven't come across a bass cab or amp with a four pin speakon socket yet.
  7. It's pretty much redundant if you use a shielded cable for the loom. You also need to ensure the pot bodies are grounded.
  8. Does he realise that putting the tuners at crazy angles devalues the instruments?
  9. I always used roto 66 swing bass. Now I have Fender nickels on most of my basses. Not as bright but keep a vintage sound longer.
  10. Most useful? Putting on Planet Rock and trying to play along to as many songs as possible, by ear, for months. Least useful? A teacher I asked about improving my technique who wanted me to learn theory I pretty much knew already.
  11. Have you tried Mach3. I know several people who use it.
  12. No I’m interested to see more. I have a design for a scope with a crayford focuser on Thingiverse.com
  13. I understand that Creality have launched a printer using four reels of pla to print up to 16 colours, presumably by mixing them in some sort of combination extruder. I guess four striking colours and twelve muddy grey-browns...
  14. What more could you expect from the company who's aesthetic* combines bass guitars with "intimate toys"? *I use the word advisedly.
  15. I have to learn 'This One Kiss' 🤢🤮
  16. I fear a quieter fan may be is because it doesn't shift enough air.
  17. I recently heard O'Neills are cancelling loads of gigs
  18. Our vocalist has a reference mic he uses with the digital desk. We have to stay schtumm while the system puts out white noise on each and then both channels and automatically adjusts the system to match the room acoustics. I am instinctively sceptical but it does seem to get good results.
  19. Fairport Convention have got through about 25 members and although Simon Nichol was in the original lineup, he was absent or many years. No one seems to get exercised about this.
  20. My dad rented out TVs in the 70s, and that was what most people wanted back then. Perhsps because real life was monochrome...
  21. I don't think that works for rock. Ten Years After parted ways Alvin Lee. While he was a charismatic front man, all three others were exceptional musicians. Queen are finally looking at recording new music, and kept going without Freddy - the most charismatic front man of all.
  22. I use it as my practice rig with a 50W Joyo Badass. Sounds great, just not loud.
