The bassline of One is sublime. It rules the feel of the tune with a velvet glove. Adam Clayton is a bass player's bassist.

First thing I noticed!

I seriously doubt those stain spots have any effect on the string. As the only person who would notice them I would play them out.

So you never listen to the radio? Naysayers can eat my shorts. I don't 'pedal' as such these days but still have twin preamps for just the right amount of wild hair when I dig in and just the right amount of warmth when I don't.

Feed back comes from the body resonating and the strings playing ball. A magnetic pickup puts the measuring at the string instead of the body but you aren't doing anything about the source.

Can you not get your card people to look at the PayPal email and take your funds back themselves?

I'd be looking through everything for accidental 'low end boost'. If I didn't find something obviously amiss I'd take it all outside to rule out something vibrating inside. Bring it up gently. Maybe you got covid deafness or just forgot how loud one cab can go before it starts smashing itself to bits. BF is not immune to being blown up by too much power too low.

This. The deluxe versions can switch in a loop of extra fx with or without extra volume. I don't get along with multi fx menus either.

Indeterminate smiley confirming sarcasm to be inferred by two word sentence, yup.

There's a far eastern possibly Buddhist lesson that goes something like A scorpion is on a journey and comes to a river. There's a cow on the river bank so the scorpion sidles up and begs a ride across. The cow is a bit reluctant but agrees and transports the scorpion across. The scorpion stings the cow a lethal sting as he hops off. The cow plaintively enquires 'what the duck?'. Scorpion shrugs 'I am a scorpion, that's what we do'.

I would be resigned to the fact that it's all out of my hands and the dealer's hands until the wheels grind on at USPS. I hope it is fully insured so the dealer isn't out of pocket when ordering up the replacement. If you ordered from the dealer he's on the hook to provide or refund you I reckon.

When I lived in the UK I had yet to set foot in Australia. ''Wot, you never been to Australia!??" ''Yeah, ever been to Russia?''. Same distance, not like popping over to Paris for lunch.

The fail is you. Don't you know gittish is a foriegn language?

Garage Rock is dead. Long live Cottage Rock.

It's a very flimsy film so you wouldn't want it anyway. I once bought a near new Jazz that the original owner hadn't removed it. At first I was horrified that he had replaced the original scratchplate with a graphic guide loaded one! Off it came. Iirc the only thing holding it down was ''static suction'', or at least no adhesive to see.

My set lists have Extras at the bottom. Sometimes we play some, or all of them, depending on what happens. If we have taken a bow it's not often we will play more after that.

Not what you are looking for but should give you what you need, Trace Elliot TransitB. Clean blend distortion with dual band compressors on the mix.

It only works if you remember to work it. No different to remembering to unplug it.

As an alternative to potential trip hazard or nipple ring tearing out I suggest the following amendment. Get in the habit of saying ''I am putting down the bass, I don't want to Downunder my nipple, I mean run down my battery'' and unplug.

Yerp.

Get your left nipple pierced. Attach clip from lead to nipple. Always remember to unplug before setting down bass!

Wow, I hankered to do some composing a few years ago but Sibelius was OTT expensive for a dabble. Notion looks great value.

Be very careful with substitute screws that they aren't too long. If they go through to the amp guts beyond the captive nut it's all over sometimes.

I used to eat straps until I got onto straplocks.

Yep. See the Rane tech note.
