Steve Harris doesn't bother with sleeves at all so why should I?

It was a pleasure to deal with Matt. He posted a wanted advert on here, and after exchanging just a couple of messages we had agreed a deal. Payment was extremely prompt with all the info provided for postage - the transaction couldn't have been any smoother!

Floor space is often at a premium so I place my wireless and tuner on top of the amp. I don't wear my glasses on stage, so having the tuner a little closer to head height also helps me see it more clearly!

If you decide to run a similar trial later down the line, please may I suggest seeking advice from a statistician before conducting and even designing the trial. They will be able to help design the experiment so that it delivers useful data from which they can make meaningful inferences. Asking for help from a statistician after the experiment has been conducted may be too late.

Quite a few iron maiden songs are mostly in the right hand. The Trooper, run to the hills etc 🙂

Then I'm afraid your trial won't achieve what you want it to.

Indeed with just one experiment you are unable to properly distinguish between types A and B. Run the experiment 10 times (or ask them to answer on 10 independent audio samples) then the probability that someone of type A guesses correctly for every sample is less than 0.001. Type B people never make mistakes, so if someone answers correctly on all 10 samples then the probability that they are of type B is at least 0.999.

Is it a noise gate?

Suppose that the population consists of only two types of person: - type A has no skill, and therefore guess correctly with probability 0.5 - type B has full skills, and therefore answers correctly with probability 1 then after a single experiment that resulted in 75% correct scores you'd expect that 50% of your population is type A and 50% is type B.

If 75% of people answered correctly, then you can say that an average person has skill level 0.75 (whatever that means); i.e. the probability that a randomly chosen participant answered correctly is 0.75. This is about as much as you can say if the prior skill level distribution is uniform across all participants. If you start with a different prior distribution, for example 90% of people have skill level 0.5 and 10% have skill level X, you will be able to calculate what X is for a given experiment result Y (in expectation).

Can you or the singer take the opportunity to remind people to socially distance as much as possible between songs?

Good luck to all 🙂

Does anyone here have tips for playing an electric guitar through the Fender rumble studio 40? I have an electric guitar that I play infrequently, perhaps once a year. I'm thinking of selling the guitar amp because it takes up valuable space. Could I get a reasonable tone if I plugged into the rumble studio 40? It would only be to play at home along to some music, most likely heavy metal. 🤘 Does anyone have any recommendations or presets for playing guitar through the studio 40?

Csnt quite remember, but I think that might be the trick to use when new-ish flatwounds feel sticky?

One might hope.

One of our gigs in January has been postponed. Wouldn't be surprised if the same happens to others ☹️

If you want to spend some money upgrading your squire bass, then I say go for it 🙂

I've got a couple of gigs in January but wouldn't be surprised if they don't go ahead. "Feels like I've been here before. Feels like I've been here before." https://youtu.be/jTWiw392FAw

That's awesome, I was looking at fender leads just the other day. Think I'll buy one now!

Mrs Chaosanator keeps asking what I'd like for Christmas. Has anyone seen any *good* black friday deals this year?

You're a better bloke than I am 🙂 What was he doing to break two strings in one set?

My best purchase: I finally managed to get my hands on a Steve Harris blue sparkly sig bass after about a year of GAS. Many thanks to the people on basschat that helped me get there! 💙

Yeah, or the striped ones 🙂
