Yes. I guess one problem with WiFi is people having their phones searching for SSIDs all the time. Latching onto your transmitter and trying to see if they can connect.

Bass line surprise - “it’s my life” no doubt

Interesting piece. https://2loud2oldmusic.com/2020/06/22/the-original-vs-the-cover-its-my-life/ -
I suspect alcohol causes by far the most issues in bands. Whether that's from the players or the audience. I started to list the gigs that have gone wrong due to alcohol but gave up, suffice it to say: keep your wits about you at gigs where there are a large number of 40 something women.

When you're a millionaire sticking it to the man becomes harder to carry off.

Funnily enough I watched an interview of a Bass player by a drummer. Both professional players. The drummer's aim of the series of interviews was to find out what musicians wanted from drummers and various general tips. The bass player pointed out there was a difference between substance use and substance abuse. And that it's a fine line. He'd never seen anyone fired for not having a beer on stage with them, but seen plenty not hired again for just having a single beer. This was the US though and they can have very puritanical views.

It's a Paul Webb bassline, copied note for note by Tony. -
Nice. I have a hankering after one of these. Not much on the forum about them. Anyone else have experience of them?

I'd be looking at the power supply as an 'allowance' or replacement to existing power supply, although possibly its an 'upgrade'. Batteries are consumables. Grey area. Pedalboard - Tier 1 fail. Any paint or screws you buy to fashion one out of scrap wood would be scrutinised. Photos would have to be supplied.

It is not GAS. I think the intention of the thread is to control rampant GAS. Technically anything that you buy to fix GAS itch should be covered (there's probably some special cream you can buy)

Ok. I'll play. I have a PA for sale and some bass shaped cash I need to get rid of. But going on past experience it could take several days (365+) to find the right bass shaped hole to put it in. Is lighting mentioned anywhere in the fail tiers?

I've been itching to buy a new bass all year but may get down halfords next week and buy some emery paper for the frets. Although I'm really not impressed with the replacement Active preamp I bought. Sometimes you have to call it a day...

I hope 2026 brings some improvement. I don't know how old your son is but hope he can get the help he needs.

Sounds like you might not have the right spec cable.

Stripping and staining walnut body - advice please

If it is poly, then the recommended removal method is a heat gun and scraper. -

There are ways. But ultimately as long as you don't use caustic soda, dipping will be no different to any other method.
