  1. New toy arriving on Thursday or Friday!

      I would say fairly big! Not "Barefaced 610" big, but still sizeable.

  2. First gig back tonight; socially distance / seated... Mix of incredibly excited and totally bricking it!

      Bit of a mixed bag to be honest. But good to be back on stage and seeing people enjoying what we play.

      Notes made for bits to work on, and a firm reminder of how heavy all my gear is!

  3. Watched a set by Sophie Ellis-Bextor at Bath's Pub in the Park yesterday. At first I thought she might be lip-syncing, but it turns out she's just very good. Her band were on fire too. They did an excellent version of Madonna's 'Like A Prayer' and the bassist (her husband I think? She called him Richard at one point, seems like a coincidence) absolutely nailed Guy Pratt's sublime octaved part on the original.

      Very good chance that the bass player was indeed her husband.

      Loved watching her streamed sets during lockdown and would love to see her perform in person.

  4. Latest lockdown treat - Ashdown Tone Pocket headphone amp!

      I got one as well. Lovely little unit! Very helpful as a headphone amp for quiet practice, but also a neat little recording interface.

  5. Coming to the realisation that for every hobby I have, about 75% of my actual enjoyment comes from learning about the equipment and getting my nerd on

      It is probably a low estimate, but I certainly enjoy using it all! If for no other reason than to stop friends and family branding me as ''all the gear, no idea'!' I just love learning about new equipment, whether than be bass amps, climbing shoes or archery equipment!

  6. Is NPGD a thing? New PickGuard day?

      You, sir, are a bad influence... But also a gentleman and a scholar (I'm sure), and you have twisted my arm!

      I'll grab a picture and just update my recent NBD thread instead of starting another 😅

  8. Rapidly approaching the point in lockdown where I want to sell a bass just so I can buy a new toy 😂

      What's on the chopping block? And what is the object of your desire?

  9. Just permanently deleted my Facebook account. It had become pretty much an ads only platform and was of little value to me anymore. So far this feels like a relief.

      I've been contemplating this to get away from a load of stuff/people. I can't really be bothered to trawl through and sort the wheat from the chaff
