Your Links don't work yet But who is attending the London bass show ??

Here ya go

Alex - just wonder if you would consider a design change and introduce a reflux port as opposed to a reflex port, with climate change you could corner the market. a couple of choices

As Tim says, We will all have blind spots to various artists and styles, It depends on our up bringing. I had a big sister so latched on to what she was into Motown,Soul, Carol King, Crosby- S,N&Y. YES, Doobie Bros, Eagles and everything Woodstock. Then I got into Genesis,Jethro Tull, Black Sabbath, Deep Purple, Pink Floyd, Lizzy, etc. but never played it on bass

One -Direction It has probably cost me an awful lot of gigs

I was discussing with an Irish Landlord of a local pub about going to visit the west coast of Ireland, but needed to know the best time of year to visit. He said it only rains twice a week - once for three days and then once for four days.

I guess I would need my wellies at the moment, Hope you BC'ers up there are all surviving this weather without too much grief, A lovely part of the world(on a nice day) been fishing up there many years ago without ill affect, But every time we have tried in the last few years there have been floods and landslides and had to turn back, even worse this year by the look. Must be a drought on the way

Moffat ! Moffat ! where the Muff is Moffat - I get a nose bleed If I go any further north than the Watford Gap

Oh Bum, why can't we have Dave Swift Sunday as well ? He is more relevant to what most of us do each week than all the others put together

Just ordered a copy of Louis Bellson's Modern Reading Text in 4/4. Thanks Guys. Reading coplex rythmes has always been my weak point never seemed to have had any formal training on it, well not for 40 years. My sight reading is pretty good but if anything will trip me up it's runs of semi's tied and dotted intermingled with rests

God there are an awful lot of videos on the tube on this subject, So I'm gonna bow out of this debate for my sanity, attached is a clip explaining the science behind the anti tone wood campaign, https://youtu.be/svmOQuNC1Uw But what he did not explain or go into was the harmonic content of the wave he referred to as timbre, This[b] is[/b] the tone signature of the component parts Neck, body, bridge nut etc. Harmonics give us a reference signature from which we learn and recognise different sounds. So basically my point is - If you can tell the difference of a note - e.g "C" played on a piano and that same note (frequency/pitch) played on a trumpet and clarinet, Bass guitar. We can all Identify all those instruments blind, So it is not just wavelength and frequency, It is the harmonic information that is telling the brain this is a clarinet, it may be harder to identify a note played on an Alder bass with maple neck made in the 50's,60's,70's,80's,90's, etc but we could differentiate the difference, good bad and indifferent. Could a cheap £200 P bass copy ever bark and burp like a neck through Warwick thumb made of Wenge and bubinga ???

Tell the wife not to panic - my son has agreed come with me - he says he has Oysters for the train so I won't even have to bother with lunch - aren't kids great

Trawling internet there are loads of entries on the topic of tone woods - here is one that asks that question. But more interestingly check out the comments [url="http://www.notreble.com/buzz/2012/08/01/how-and-why-woods-affect-your-bass-sound/"]http://www.notreble....our-bass-sound/[/url] Also worth a listen https://youtu.be/UjHpVGMaleM

I agree, I think that is where they got the idea from, but some designs have now lost the plot

Alex has said that his cabs can go really deep So you could try it on and say you thought thats what he meant. Maybe he'll send you a new cone anyway.

Give me Swamp Ash over basewood any day Silk purse Sows ear etc etc

If you are on a budget have a look at these [url="http://flexxbasses.com/"]http://flexxbasses.com/[/url] [url="http://www.youtube.com/v/hENl2hPNRBs&autoplay=1"]http://www.youtube.c...NRBs&autoplay=1[/url] [url="https://youtu.be/Q3Mf3lVTnRI"]https://youtu.be/Q3Mf3lVTnRI[/url]
