Some lovely boards here. @stewblack takes the “never even heard of that one before” award for me, which is always an excellent internet rabbit hole to head down! @Berserker - yeah the MS range is excellent, isn’t it? If you can think it, there’s probably a way to do it with one of these!

Massive admiration for any fellow BC’ers that do pit work. That’s some proper skill. The show I’ve been op’ing lights for this week had a lad on bass who used to play with my lad in the school soul/concert band. He was awesome. Like: 21, still at uni, but as good as any bottom end I’ve heard in a west ender. And in my household, that’s a lot of west end shows seen! Good work @scalpy!

Nice set up Daryl. Pumpkins aren’t that big this side of the pond!!

It does look good! A haze machine is an excellent investment, just presents lighting nicely. I’ve been operating the lighting desk for a local theatre company this week and I’ve had a REALLY big one to play with.

There IS something satisfying about how a Bart pup ages, isn’t there? Which is weirdly niche! My 18 yo BTB with USA Barts has all sorts of finger wear, and a satisfying groove from where I anchor my thumb!

I know you shouldn’t have to, but draw it in Word or something and send them a PDF?

That’s really cool! That tuning with my bands would force me on to all sorts of dusty, untraveled parts of the neck!

To add: with my main band, there’s two guitars and piano/organ/synth (you won’t know him, but he’s called Kevan and he’s a devastating keys player) so when it’s solo time for the lads I tend to drop below E when the key permits. Doubling Kev’s keyboard bari stabs on Mustang Sally with the low C. If you’re doing Brass in Pocket and Summer of 69 properly you need the low D. If you play any modern Country from the last 20 years there’s a good chance it’s a fiver. Etc. I love 5!

Absolutely this - nail on head. I’ve played fivers only for at least 23 years if not more. With my main band there’s a lot of call for low B, C and D and with the other band there’s a LOT that’s easier to finger and sing harmonies over if I’m rooted around the fifth fret. For me too, that’s the main appeal. Nice analysis @lozkerr !

Killer poster! Hope it goes well!

Basschat IS detail.

Late to the party but yes, this is excellent. A really strong original design. I like!

Just bought a mono strap from @guyl - excellent transaction, thanks!
