  1. The previous version of the forum had the same anti-cuss filter, but would simply replace the offending expression with a series of '******'. It was decided that, with the new software version, it would be just as efficient (at not letting bad language pollute the forum...), but more 'fun', to replace the words with 'lighter' alternatives. It may not appeal to all, of course, and is irrelevant if one doesn't use such language on a family-friendly forum in the first place. Hope this helps.
  2. Wikipedia's topics 'Dyad' and 'Power chords' are worth a glance, too.
  3. Offers and trade propositions posted in 'For Sale' ads are systematically deleted. They are to be made by Private Message (PM...) only. Thanks in advance for your understanding and cooperation.
  4. ... but it can be rendered inoperative; I select 'Repeat' (an icon at lower left...). I'd rather have the current track repeat than have a random whatever spoiling the mood. Sod, 'em, I say; sod 'em all.
  5. It's all about the hi-hat.
  6. The same could be said of pretty wall all of the components, if going down that route, and about pretty well all manufacturers. It makes one wonder how the bass got bought, if it didn't sound good with the strings it had on it.
  7. ? ? ? But basses can play all of the 'black notes' (sharps and flats...) anyway with standard EADG tuning, so that's not really a valid explanation as to why that bass was tuned down. A gentle bit of plonker-pulling, no..?

  9. Using that same 'logic', all Australians are Fosters-swilling, cork-hat-wearing, culture-less surfing loafers. Slightly reductionist, no..?
  10. Clothes..? No, that's the photographer's handkerchief; she's not wearing clothes.
  11. To be fair, I don't think one could describe Scarlett Johansson as 'new', and in some photos appears to have a twisted neck.
  12. No, we use a Venn crossover depending on the frequency of postings on the subject of sustain. It filters the 'Hi..!' part to the Drunk thread and the 'Low' part to the Depression topic.
  13. Make a nice pair, though, wouldn't they..!
  14. Be worried, then; be very worried. I've never heard of half the bands mentioned here..!
  15. Surely, as a 'syndrome', there should some medical connotation, as in 'suffering from GAS'..?
  16. You bash the strings so hard the bridge moves..? Remind me not to lend you my bass..!
  17. Good evening, Alex, and ... Plenty to read and amuse you here, and lots to learn and share.
  18. Good evening, Caretaker, and ... Plenty to read and amuse you here, and lots to learn and share. @Funkfingers Innuendo..? Can't think what you mean. Reminds me of a little tale, though... A doctor made it his regular habit to stop at a bar for a hazelnut daiquiri on his way home. The bartender knew of his habit, and would always have the drink waiting at precisely 5:03 pm One afternoon, as the end of the work day approached, the bartender was dismayed to find that he was out of hazelnut extract. Thinking quickly, he threw together a daiquiri made with hickory nuts instead, and set it on the counter. The doctor came in right on time, as usual, took one sip of the drink and exclaimed, "But this isn't a hazelnut daiquiri..!" "No, I'm sorry," replied the bartender, "it's a hickory daiquiri, doc."
  19. I found my horn was a bit of a devil to play.
