Oh jeez. Man, there's gonna be a new level of utter trash in there now then. Does the guy that dresses like a deck chair still frequent the place?

Ah - the Dave Swift move.

This is why I tend to do all my shopping online. The less I have to interact with people, the better. I was in Sheffield at a café - took me 15 minutes to get through the checkout. Cold chips. Today... been at a coffee shop... first time getting through the till, 20 minutes. Second, 7. Both times there was 2 or less people in front of me in the queue.

With regards to specialist shops, I'm prepared to cut them a bit of slack... lets face it, it must be boring looking at bass guitars all day... once the novelty has worn off. And lets face it, we'd all be beaching if these shops closed down. Next time go in there and tell them what you want there and then. And once when the deal is done, tell them how diabolically stinky poo the experience was.

You're right, it's not the first one I was thinking about thinking about but the second one that I had first had second thoughts about thinking about that I was then thinking about.

I haven't seen him at many shows in the last few years? They'll be a find Clutterbuck post soon...

Youve already said enough to let us know who you are talking about!

Ah! I didn't know it was nitro. Wouldn't really know what to do with nitro. As for building up the wood and cracks, make a fine dust of matchsticks (or maple if you have some the same colour as the neck) and make up a paste of wood and superglue to fill the area. Then sand flat. Then lacquer (with whatever you use over poly)

Punters walk through the centre of the band to go for a ciggie for crying out loud. Mind you, the bogs are fully representative of an originals venue. Always been wary of the plug feeding the stage has been situated right where the punters are sitting.

Oh jeez! Well that would explain why the quality of the music has gone down to beyond shyte. Mind you, he's always been a funny one in there.

Yup. There's some cheap MIDI options out there now that could do you. Or it you want to use the footswitch approach, you could program up the logic into a PIC microprocessor or similar depending on how project based you are feeling! Downside to both of these is that you would have to power the remote switch somehow. Bit more hassle than a passive unlatched/latch.

Skim the neck to your profile.

Two mounted close together would do you... one stomp for both.

Get the headstock blown over with some clearcoat poly. That will stop everything in it's tracks.

Indeed! There's very few places that could - and indeed do so - nowadays. Nobody is interested in pre-fame band like there were in yesteryear.

Without mentioning the name, that place diagonally opposite the doot, de, doot, doot,... doot? Or are we talking that place which is as light as?

Me - cos it always kicks off a great bass chat thread.

For crying out loud, has this turned into a Barefaced thread?

Is this from the air raid shelter sessions? I've got some candles - I can post them up to you!

Its always interesting when people start talking speed with regards to HDs... Doing some rough calcs... For each mono track, 24 bit, 48KHz, the bitrate is going to be 1,152 Kbps. So filesize is 144 Kb per second, per channel written to disk. For 32 tracks... 144kb x 32 tracks = 4608Kb/s, so in Mb, 4.5Mb/s So realistically, any HD will do at those kind of write speeds. Of course, with a magnetic drive, you'd hope that you've got the disk defragged for recording. Of course SSD doesn't suffer with fragmentation. So when I say any HD will do... they will... as pretty much any 5400rpm HD will handle write speeds of way more than 4.5Mb/s. In short, the hard disk is not going to be the issue when tracking. Editing however, you'll probably appreciate the faster disk speed. If you suffer problems whilst recording - especially long sessions - it's probably down to your choice of daw, or buffer on your audio device. In short, processor for recording and then RAM for are king. For clarification though - SSD for at least your system disk is going to make your system feel a lot lot lot more responsive.

I'll buy two at that price! Good grief.

Oh right! No - that's a bit back now, things seem to have moved pretty fast round here now! Yeah - I agree - seems a lot of cash for a stick with a base!

The reshelling cost?

Probably the same

Correct - inearz concentrating on their own IEMs at the moment (they have just done a deal with asius to fit the Adel) so have halted reshells for the time being.
