  1. I’m after a pair and of Duncan Design pups if you’re willing to split.
  2. Sir Christopher Lee and Italian Symphonic Metal band Rhapsody of Fire.
  3. Relatively speaking ALL flats are inexpensive considering how long they last versus roundwounds.
  4. We have a ‘no alcohol’ before or during gigs. Easy for me, as I pretty much have a ‘no alcohol’ rule for life.
  5. Didn’t watch it as I was out playing music with British (well, mostly British) musicians. In Britain. Do I win a Brit award too?
  6. I’m currently rocking a hen 1 Compact and am curious as to how much of a difference a midget would make. I love the sound of the Compact but part of me thinks ‘what if...’
  7. Anthrax and Public Enemy isn’t something I expected in the late 80s / early 90s but it’s a great record!
  8. Wash yer 'ands afore playin' t'music.
  9. All that fuzz and Velcro too!
  10. Agreed, 1.3A and 9v sounds much more likely for a digital unit.
  11. My first thought after reading the thread title was ‘defecate in the corner’. I think I need to speak my therapist 🤭
  12. Get 500k push/pull pots so that there aren’t any more physical controls on the bass, just pull the knob upwards and tap the coil!
  13. Yes, but if you bought humbuckers that can be coil tapped them you’d have ‘Jazz bass’ covered too by running them as single coils. 👍🏻
  14. Yeah, that’s taking the pith a bit.
  15. Anyone got a spare $25,000 (plus import duty)? https://reverb.com/item/9832023-carl-thompson-rainbow-fretless-bass-2006-natural
  16. Yup. I can use my fretting hand thumb on my iPhone and that's about it.
  17. Dave Hall probably already does something that’ll Do what you need
  18. Needs to be a bit more substantial than these then?
  19. Not sure about the ‘poor relations’ moniker; every band I’ve been in has had a ‘weird uncle who smells a bit and keeps goats’ experience from me. They’ve been bloody lucky to have it too!
  20. Is it noticeably louder when using just one pickup? If this is the case then one of the pickups is probably out of phase with the other.
  21. Another vote for Pro Steels. Try lowering your action too for extra clang!
