    give ‘em heck

    An original vintage Bass VI fetches silly money these days so I’m quite thankful there is an inexpensive offshore version available. I’ve been quite surprised at the fun I’ve had goofing around on my Squier. I put the more recent heavier gauge Fender strings on it. I like it a lot!

    My little box arrived , I’ve done the happy dance , and I’ve been spinning the knobs ever since.

    My thought exactly ! I love the look of that Trent.

    One look at the bridge and pickup and it’s obviously not original, despite the name on the pickguard. Some Chibsons are said to be getting more difficult to identify , happily not the case here.

    … and they ditched the interchangeable pickups and wooden bridge. It’s a shame they’ve branded them as Dan Armstrongs. I know several that were surprised at the quality of what they received , I had read some brutal earlier reviews. They arrived quickly and were delivered in the US for under $400 to your door. That’s hard to believe!

    I still carry a tuning fork in my gig bag.

    The SG has quite different pickups under very similar looking covers. And a simplified VVT knob layout so it’s much easier to dial in. They stopped making the EBO in 89 , the EB3 in 79. The SG came out in 05.

    Several friends have picked up the recent Chinese Dan Armstrong branded basses and were surprised at the construction. They said it was much better than they expected.

    In the olden days we used pitchforks to tune up. And often had to try and do that while disco was blaring through the club PA.

    The loudest fan I’ve ever heard is on the SWR HeadLite. … that thing seriously rocks out!

    The Aguilar arrived , it will be going home to be parked on an Aguilar SL112 cab , but for the time being it’s getting a good workout on top of my tiny PhilJones. And it was making that SG sound wonderful!

    Go for four.

    I have a GK MB200 , somehow the fan got gunked up and stopped working. Fried the ICE power chip. I liked the amp enough to get it repaired. Now I find the sound of a fan running oddly reassuring.

    I bought a Hotone Thunderbass for a giggle when one popped up on kijiji , and I use it with headphones a lot. I can also plug in a tablet and play along with things , perfect as a rehearsal tool.

    Go for it.

    A third hand might work out a little better.

    Between google translate and Scottish , I was thinking of this skit …

    Great excuse to buy another amp.

    There’s still the vestiges of car culture in the US.

    I need cabs for most of the gigs I do. Not in the PA , so my amp is the room sound. Home I always plug into an amp , I have several little practice rigs. But when it’s time to work on material I usually go into headphones through a little Hotone Thunderbass.

    I’ve been getting some misery from Can Post. Waiting for a little Aguilar amp from the US. It spent six days in Customs , and is now apparently on the way. So maybe mid next week…

    Enjoy!
