I may have misread the edit that appears to be days old, or it was ninja edited, but all is in order.

The sticky in basses for sale still has #8 No Rickenbackers. If I was you I would continue to ban the copies.

The advertisers won't be well pleased. This is the end of all tonewood threads forever.

I do that. It's how I figured out where the problem was with hitting the pedal note with the plucking finger that just landed on it from plucking the last note. Generally I don't concern myself with which finger I am using to pluck each note. 4/4 100bpm semiquaver isn't fast! It's just this line needs a steady 1 2 pluck to stay on track.

The tendency is to utilise the downbeat downstroking finger to also tag the following pedal note. Bzzzz, tripped up.

Ironically, if you're being literal it may have been a valid attempt! You could make a very good Faraday cage out of a sieve.

The reason it took a turn to FRFR is a small coloured amp that isn't mic'd into your Gazillion W PA will be providing misleading info to you on stage.

Can't take anything seriously if that's what you're selling.

Either the bassist is a rebroadcast station or not. That is a binary thing not a mystery.

So the bassist is a re broadcast station for local RF? Not buying it.

Back it up please. Ime an antenna only works when it is in electrical contact with the receiving device.

You're saying the player acts as a big antenna into the bass electronics when he isn't connected to them? But when he is connected to them he stops transmission? No comprendez.

A Compact 12 or BigBaby would be a safer bet. Still pretty easy things to shift.

Is that a trick question? Have at it. I am not an electrician. I don't even know why the strings need to be at ( signal?) ground! All I said was ( grounding everything and everything with ) copper foil fixed the lack of (effective) ground at the bridge ( replacing fingers on strings). I am well aware of Faraday's cage effect. Fingers on strings are not a Faraday cage.

Granddaughter would possibly fit, kinda hard to see how old she is in the photos.

Beats me what contortions one would have to do to have a conflict of forearm and binding.

Your link even talks about compensating for bad bridge grounds. Do you have shares in it?

Bernie is poking a banana in his ear. Burt : ''Earnie, wtf?'' Earnie : ''I am keeping the crocodiles away from Sesame St'' Burt : ''EARNIE, THERE ARE NO CROCODILES ON SESAME ST!!!" Earnie : ''See, it's working!''.

Ugh. If it was grounding then touching the strings would not have made a difference!

There's your 'missing' science! Clearly the bridge was NOT grounding!

Can you explain how the touching strings eliminated the buzz then?

I think hardware is pretty well correlated from the barely acceptable to pretty good stuff. Schallers breaking is a glaring departure from their historical price reliability correlation tradition. They will pay in the end.

You haven't made a point. You have only reiterated propositions of the OP without stating a position. Fancy basses appeal to some players who can afford them. So what?

Supply and demand allows the makers a little profit. Nobody is putting a gun to anyone's head to buy so I fail to see your concern.

Tell her your mates from BassChat request ''Smelly Cat''.
