Phil Starr Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 If anybody is interested I've a couple of empty 1x12 cabs far from new and well used but free to anyone interested. If you are a lazy DIY'er They would suit a wide variety of 12" drivers. Let me know and you can take them away from the bash saving a lot of hassle with postage. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard R Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 This is the first draft Bass Weights spreadsheet. The first sheet is for input, the other tabs have a couple of example graphs. I've not included too many data fields but enough to provide some stats. Not quite sure how the best way to do this is, but Mike's suggestion is that we set it up in the small room and periodically have weigh-ins. Hopefully there will be something interesting in the data - I was tempted to include "weight of owner" as a column to see if there is a correlation.

From Wikipedia: "Clomifene, also known as clomiphene, is a medication used to treat infertility in women who do not ovulate, including those with polycystic ovary syndrome. Use results in a greater chance of twins.It is taken by mouth once a day, with a course of treatment that usually lasts for 5 days." Unless it also enhances rhythm and groove in middle-aged bassists I don't think it's something we're likely to encounter on Sunday 😉 I'll stick to asking folks to weigh their basses and starting a BC-wide database. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
