Would have to be a permanent anorak wearer to spot what neck is on your bass from the front row. Don't expect them to number 1 at at your shows. Play your lines by finger memory and rock out soaking it all in. Good times.

That's understandable, but not the three tuning pegs aka shiny things at the end of the long lined thing one of the wriggly things attached to the top of the centre blob thing rests on.

Can you explain how it comes up with so many three banger Fenders?

There is a problem to say "Brexit shagged it" without the detail. That's political. If you say, "since the UK became an independent tax regime there is now a lot more paperwork for me to get a simple job done", that's your truth and nobody is going to have a problem with it.

@Steve Browning might like to enlighten us what bureaucratic hoops a UK shop would need to jump through to do a one off export sale.

If France is like NZ there would be VAT to pay on the shipping fee paid even with it attracting VAT already.

Just a guess, but if they are all so sorted with tracks it may be that they have the facility to record your efforts at your jams. Maybe you compare well and they nix the bass track after you get up to speed. It would have to be very well paid for me to put all the work in and still be expected to mime it.

"Get on up, get on up, like a...".... or not. Put me in the neurodiverse group.

Good thing you asked before hooking it all up and letting the magic smoke out.

Nobody wants to see your bass face.

Trace advised the SMX preamp as putting out enough at '4' to fully drive an amplifier. They provided extra gain in case a low sensitivity amp was encountered. Turning it past 4 won't get any more out of a Trace amp.

The engineers managed to insist on end feet but no promotional photo ever saw a magazine with it deployed in the vertical.

Pluck with 2nd and third fingers.

The drummer used to have difficulty getting the countoff tempo correct in the heat of a big gig. I would have to wave him off if he was too far adrift. This time he counted it off double time and foxed me. Trouble ensued as the deps we use had the opportunity to pretend they weren't familiar and show off by playing it double time. Then the singer comes in, looking like a deer in the headlights but sounding like a member of The Chipmunks, trying to get all the words out instead of walking off. We finished hardly any slower than we started, shrugged, and carried on. To his credit the drummer bought a tablet for keeping it all under control from that day forward.

If you dropped the 2nd shelf after angling the guitars a bit more I reckon you could get another row of shortscales in it and have toom left over.

Halfway is full volume on slightly later ones.

I think your grunge band has very much more volume control than my grunge band if you think 210 or 112 is going to cope.

Damn. Must be a market for dog sitting services. As in, my Rottweiler is happy sleeping in your van for a big bag of biskits and a couple of tickets. Put him back in my front gate on your way out of town.

I can't play guitar for toffee. So that blows your theory right out of the water. But yeah, an awful lot of guitar players think they can play bass. Some sure can. A lot of those can probably run rings around me. A lot of those play way too many notes but.

Try putting your Elf in a box with holes for leads. We have it on high authority here that it can't cook the amp. The box surface loses plenty of heat once the internal temperature is only a few degrees raised.

Not all loud bands are very loud at all.

It's not uncommon for a modern class D amp to be capable of running down to 2 ohm but deliver the same rated power to 4 ohm worth of cabinets. Over to OP to check the manual.

It's a long long time since I did that so ny memory could be off. There could be a chance the pain has settled by next Friday enough that the bandaged finger doesn't complain too much. What did the nurse say?

I very much doubt a cheap 2x8 is going to keep up with the drums in a pub band. At 4 ohms it won't know what to do with all the power but you can't build a tower power of 2ohm.

You could tell your Momma it's a 250w practice amp.
