      Quite right.

      In one of the series (Restaurant at the End of the Universe?) the notion is also expressed when he says that the question of Life the Universe and Everything and the answer to the question of Life the Universe and Everything can not exist together in the same time space continuum because they cancel each other out.

      One of the stories told of a race of beings who believed that the universe was the product of a sneeze from a great mythical creature.  They lived in perpetual fear of the coming of the great white handkerchief.

      Of course your common working philosopher might have other ideas...

  10. Thanks for all the suggestions .... I eventually went with the LaBella extra light Flats.... The gauge fits exactly with the nut... & although I was unsure if I'd get on with a set so light,[color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]39 - 96.... They actually feel great & sound perfect.... [/font][/color][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif] [/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Maybe try some Nylon Tapewounds another time... These will probably last for ever on this bass though!.. [/font][/color]
  11. [quote name='hubrad' timestamp='1491733899' post='3275052'] Confusing post, inasmuchas tapewound is the term the Americans use for flats. Do you mean nylon tape wound? I have the Picato Black Nylon set on a 5-string, and while the set is 50-105 plus 130, they feel really light. Remember some of the thickness is taken up with very light nylon, and the windings have almost no effect on the tension of the string. [/quote] Ah yes..... indeed, I mean Nylon tape wound.... I have added that to the original post now..... thanks!
  12. I recently purchased an Aria FEB fretless acoustic bass [i](affectionately called a 'febfluffen' on TB)[/i] I would like to put some[b] Nylon tape wound strings[/b] on it but I'm not finding it easy to track down a light enough gauge to fit the nut slots without having to file them out... LaBella do an extra light set of flats (760FX) which are 39 - 96... but I can't find any tapes lighter than 750N - Light .050 - G 1 .065 - D 2 .085 - A 3 .105 - E 4. Execpt the 'Beatle bass' set for a Hofner Violin fit.... Any suggestions? My febfluffen!.....
  13. I used to have an AG500 & now have a TH500.... I miss the mid controls on the 500 & the 'magic buttons' (deep & bright) ...Thinking that the 700 will be similar to the old 500 but with more headroom... The reason I got rid of my AG500sc is because I kept tripping it out when running at 4 ohms... The protection circuit was way too trigger happy.... couldn't resolve it, so moved to the TH500... A nice amp..... with the 'Aguilar' tone but not quite as warm as the AG in my opinion. Still at over a grand, not sure if I will go for the 700!... If Aguilar made lightweight SL 2x10's ...I reckon 2 of them with an AG700 head could be my dream rig......very portable... & a choice of 1 or 2 cabs for different venues sizes. [i]T[/i]he new SL 4x10 looks good but again, VERY pricey.... I can't really justify spending almost 2 & a half grand on a rig, for the level of gigs I do, when it isn't absolutely perfect for my needs... I am a big fan of Aguilar though.....
  14. Some great stuff already..... I'd like to add: Genesis - Back in NYC [url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fllf-WMB0hY"]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fllf-WMB0hY[/url] One note on the bass pedals ....for a fair bit of the whole song! & Meshell Ndegeocello - Stay [url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A0H2xYgndls"]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A0H2xYgndls[/url] Love the buckets of funk in the main 2 note vamp.....
