I cut slots in the sponge for the strings to sit in. It stops the intonation going t'pot.

Does it make the noise without your bass cable being plugged in?

Well, there's 115 pages of info for you to read through here 🙂

The tone on DSoT is great, but (IMO!) wrong for Floyd. Evidently Dave G. agreed...

Also, open truss rod access at the headstock on a Fender-style bass screams 'low quality!' to me. ...which I appreciate is odd, 'cos it's the more practical approach. I like to see nothing there, or a nice plug to fill the hole.

Markbass.

Lakland flats, I think?

Thanks for the inspiration...

Beautiful! Thanks for the tag...

Did he forget to tune it..?

You’re not wrong. Happy to report I got it mostly right, thank goodness.

He's started to do little blog thingies... here's the first.

But... but... it was just a rush job for NAMM 😚

Thanks for sharing - I really like his style. Here's a general question, which I hope doesn't derail the thread too much. At the end of the clip he talks about the circle of fifths. Since the first time I had this explained to me (about 25 years ago, by a music teacher friend, who thought it would change my life), I've literally failed to see what practical purpose I'd use it for. I'm clearly missing something - can someone put me out of my misery?

....and the thought of reading it cold blows my mind. I don't know how anyone could do that. Amazing.

Thank you. To be fair, I'm probably playing it wrong 😄

I finally did it! Intense boredom forced me to work out the Sir Duke run. I know it's not a big deal, but I'm a R,5,R,5 guy and this has more notes in it than I would normally play in a month. My upper frets are still in shock.

Oh, apologies. I thought it was still opposite day.

Nice review! I'd really like one of those, but they all seem to be filled with lead 😞

My money's on this for v2:

It's worth the extra £1500 for the logo upgrade alone.

I paid 80EUR to send a bass to Italy via Eurosender. Yes, it was a lot, but it was insured.

Do a search - loads of threads - but I had a good experience sending to Italy recently with these:

I think the answer to this one is pretty obvious. Can we keep COVID chat in the Basschat COVID thread, please? Thank you.
