  1. Jason Newsted on Metallica's "...And Justice For All" - awesome!
  2. Should be the same for each power supply; connect two supplies in parallel = double current at 9v, two supplies in series = single current at 18v.
  3. The bsy600 is much better than the boss synth pedal
  4. Just talk to lots of elderly people, that way you get the same story every hot, on the hour - just like the news. There really is no substitute for GQT though.
  5. Indeed, it got a bit ‘Swanee Kazoo’ in places. Most places in fact. Also, can I also point out that it’s a Soprano Recorder, and not, in fact, a flute?
  6. The Artist formerly known as Prince’s ‘Gold Experience’ album. Pure class from start to finish.
  7. Yes, a multimeter across the lead (red to tip, black to sleeve) will give you the output in millivolts as you play, but will fluctuate wildly with playing dynamics - the harder you hit, the greater the reading. you could also put your multimeter across the hot and ground connections on your pickup(s) too - this time measure the dc resistance of the pickup. Generally a jazz bass pickup will be anywhere from 6.5 to 8 ohms, but I’ve seen some up at 11. There’s more to it than this, but it’s a good indicator that a pickup is either ‘hot’ or not.

    DIY Effects

    I’ve just finished a ROG Ginger - great little pedal!
  9. Dead trees and traffic islands - Manic Street Preachers
  10. Yeah, great for home and studio recording too though...
  11. Lyrically and instrumentally, the Smiths were awesome, Morrissey singing slightly sharp all of the time took me some time to get over.
  12. Jon very kindly sent me some copper tape to do my bitsa P bass with - very kind gesture from one BCer to another.
