You missed my point spectacularly. I saw typical businesses for 10 years. Good and bad. I'm not remotely jaded. I'm passing on conclusions based on around 3000 businesses against your 1. I'm not criticising here. By the way, talking of stereotyping (as I wasn't), a tax inspector gets difficult only when evidence (actual evidence) deems it necessary. It's a bit like people complaining about being done for speeding, somehow forgetting they were speeding. Anyway it's a nice day so what the hell.

Hey everyone, Just wondering if anybody on here has done something similar or may have some wisdom to share? Whilst recently cleaning 7+ years of dirt of the neck with a slightly damp microfiber cloth (very silly, I now know!) I ended up taking off some of the lacquer finish on about 1/3 of the neck. I've re-coated it with Birchwood Casey tru-oil and gunstock wax (as per Musicman recommendation), so the neck seems protected and feels the nicest I have ever had it! However, I'd really like to restore the finish back to it's former glory! I'm just not sure how best to proceed with this job, as information about how these necks were finished seems to be fairly hard to find on the internet. If you need more info please just ask, I'd be happy to have a chat about it Thanks!!

If all you ever see are the negative examples of business behaviour, then no wonder you’re so jaded with it all. Thats fine. We need regulators to keep things in check. But not all businesses - and business people - are bad. Neither are we criminals, tax dodgers or rule breakers. If we’re doing stereotypes, there are enough of those about tax people, but we won’t go there. Workers do generate wealth, that’s completely true - but this situation only occurs because someone has create a vehicle, with the inherent risks associated with it, to enable them to do so. We don’t need to invoke the spirit of Marx to explain why they shouldn’t capture *all* this wealth, but the rewards should reflect the risks (as they do in all walks of life). Oh, and I’m writing this while taking a break from building a new business website. Can’t imagine any of my contractors are doing the same…

thank you! I have a plan for the amp, I'll start a build thread in a few days

had any luck with these settings? sounded bloody awful when I tried it, way too much distortion

The lens of a taxman is that something that is legal is fine. In many companies, it is the employees who create the wealth. The owners enjoy it. That's, of course, mildly facetious but a successful business is not necessarily taking many risks. Employees are also risking their livelihood too. I've yet to meet a businessman who wouldn't shaft his employees for his own advantage. That's my taxman experience based on a different business every day for nigh on 10 years. Again, avoidance is fine. It is for governments to address it, if it is perceived to be problematic. My only gripe, and it applies to absolutely everything, is that everyone is treated exactly the same. Ah Utopia!!

No problem at all acoustically, although you'll need to find a way of stopping your amp from falling off the top of the cab.

No mirth to be detected - for once it is intended to be a serious and hopefully useful suggestion, you old fart

Looks good, have you used it?

Whilst I detect a little mirth in this suggestion, my initial reaction is, “Ooh, good idea, I could sit on it too!” Aging bodies suck 😖.

Take something like this with you? https://www.argos.co.uk/product/2026642

crank up a 300W ampeg SVT against a 300W class D and I assure you there will be a difference.

It’s certainly true that a valve amp of a quoted wattage will sound significantly louder than the equivalent solid state amp of the same quoted wattage.

I have visions of something suitably Spinal Tap if they were available .
