incredible little dirt boxes - highly recommended piece of kit! -
My ‘beater/bitsa’ P bass has a set of flats that are a year old - just getting settled in nicely!
-
Best 5 string I ever played was a Blade; stunning instruments in their 'normal' production runs - god only knows how good this one is!! -
Heart of soul - The Cült

I LOVE playing 80's synth basslines (octave, envelope filter and/or fuzz) and soul/Motown stuff is always welcome. Mostly I'll play anything though. I like complex, syncopated stuff but sometimes you can't beat laying down solid 8ths with a P bass and a pick - that kind of playing has its own kind of joy.

That would stretch to the moon though!

Worst Live Act (Pushing it a bit too far)
paul_5 replied to theplumber's topic in General Discussion
I seem to remember the chilli’s not being particularly entertaining in Dublin 20+ years ago (by the way tour I think) - they’d be in the running for worst live band had New Order not been their opener and beaten them to it. -

Absolute. Beast. I had one years ago and loved it!

Mine started out at 25’ but has been fixed over the years, kind of like ‘my uncle Billy’. Neutrik jacks and van damme cable ftw.

Corrugated sheet steel probably. -
Mrs_5 has contributed ‘that guy from Primus is the lead singer and bassist, and I know that’s quite unusual’, ‘George Harrison - was he the bass player in the Beatles?’ Not looking good is it? 😄 After some gentle prompting we got to ‘Les Claypool’

My mate got felt-up by Shed 7 - does this count? -
St Alphonso's Pancake Breakfast - Zappa

I had the Hydrive 410 when they first came out and it took everything I could throw at it, I ran mine with an LH1000 head though- monster rig!
-
Warren bought my spectracomp in a quick, easy and pleasant transaction we know and love from this very boutique. Recommended BCer.

Anybody else getting a ‘Boba Fett’ vibe from this?

Draw a ‘cock and balls’ around the pickup rout and potentiometer holes and have done with it.

Might not be grounding - could be a shielding issue. Are the cavities lined with conductive tape and linked to the ground wire?
