    In a weird situation where I have £1k-£1.2k to spend on a new bass and I just can't find anything I want in that range 🙃

    Thinks a Fender Dimension Deluxe V HH would be an amazing addition to my collection…

      Nope. I had two, sold one and am keeping the other!

    £53 on Amazon/7 days to spend or loose/what bass things are worth it on there?

      I'd probably do boring stuff like strings and leads...

    Isn’t it crazy that nobody during WW2 had ever heard electric slap bass?

    Given that the year is of sentimental meaning to him, do I tell my Managing Director that the 1972 Precision he thinks he has, has actually got a 74 neck and 73 pots?🙄

    1. Muppet

      Muppet

      Because that's what the seller told him and I don't believe he checked it when he bought it.  He lent it to me and I did check!

      That was my thought too. He's happy at the moment and it's still a lovely bass!

    Isle of Wight Festival time! Looking forward to some live music, overpriced beer and lukewarm food. Let’s rock!

      Let me know how it goes. First year ever that I've missed it. Just not comfortable with festivals etc at the moment.

    Latest lockdown treat - Ashdown Tone Pocket headphone amp!

    1. Muppet

      Muppet

      re your question about charging, the green light goes out after 30 mins or so. This is a fast charge only and  will give you the 45mins or so that you are getting. A full charge with the charger takes about 10 hours according to Ashdown. Hope that helps.

      One is to charge it with the supplied 10v power supply, the other is for an optional power supply such as an in-car charger. It also charges via USB

      They're great aren't they? It looks and feels a quality unit and I love the sound. Recording works really well too.

    Big shout for DPD👏. Collected a bass Sevenoaks 13.30 yesterday, arrived Stockport today around 12.30. Smooth as really smooth stuff.

      By far the best of the couriers in my opinion. That's great service given the current conditions.

    Currently waiting for Tesco to open (as they’re no longer 24/7 🙄). Arrived early to avoid most of the mouth breathers. Let’s see how this goes. I just wanna do a normal shop FFS!

      I reckon Dave thinks that people who are holding delivery slots will give them up in an unselfish move. What do you reckon the chances of that are?

      All panic buyers are just doing a normal shop apparently. I can't find anyone admitting to being a panic buyer!

    Wondering whether I should be annoyed that a bass I agreed to buy at the asking price and collect at the sellers earliest availability has been 'sold' to someone else without the buyer telling me......

      Butterscotch blonde like the 60th Anni Precision? Or cayenne red...

    Visitors to BC over the years may well have seem me bang on about what I suppose is still a favourite 'tonally coloured' speaker cabinet, the Hartke 4.5XL. I've had about 6 of those 45Kg beasts over the years. Too heavy for my poor back now. Imagine my excitement when I find I can have 600 different IR's of this famous cabinet to play with on Helix and my DAW???!!!!! Could I have 'Dan's 90's Tone' back again??? Watch this space! (My back says thank you)

      Line 6's own article is quite useful.
