  1. Spotted this the other day and though if this post - a BMC for £75. Definitely worth investigating.
  2. These are really good, I bought one for my fretless Jazz and liked it so much I put one in my fretted jazz as well. I might even put one in my P...
  3. Solid state drive and lots of fast RAM (assuming he’s using plugins) are an absolute must. There are modifications you can make to Windows (mostly turning off a load of unnecessary apps that run n the background), but Windows would not be my first choice; how does he feel about Linux as an OS?
  4. Rush at Sheffield on the Roll The Bones tour. Not sure if it was the first ‘big gig’ I’d been to, but that one stands out as being too loud.
  5. I got a Motörhead compilation that looks like this having heard Metallica’s ham-fisted cover versions of 4 classic ‘head tracks. I was not disappointed.
  6. I had one of these in the early 2000s - great bass. These are really playable, not too heavy and active eq to boot. Ultimately the string spacing was a little too tight for my ‘agricultural’ right hand technique.
  7. This bad boy: It’s got this beautiful booklet that strips away the layers of the figure on the front, so I took a punt on it. It also contained some of the best music I’d heard for a good long while.
  8. Bumperoo, will trade for a cheap looper pedal.
  9. That's different to my transcription - I got is as... Dyers Eve.pdf
  10. Johnny Kick a Hole in the Sky - Red Hot Chili Peppers
  11. Mmmmm, ripple.
  12. This charming man - the smiffs

    As long as it’s filtered I can’t see much difference; typically drive and boost circuits don’t drain much juice.
  14. EWS bass mid control is an amazing pedal; tiny footprint but incredibly flexible: I’d take one over an eq pedal any day.
  15. Finished 3 pedals this weekend - I might need a bigger board...

    Veroboard; there’s only a couple of millimetres between the perfboard and veroboard layouts I had. might build another that’s tuned slightly higher in the bass and lower in the treble to suit a P bass...
  17. As a counterpoint to all of this tomfoolery I forward this brooding ballad from messers Mulligan and O’Hare...

    Just finished a’classic’ 2 band Stingray eq preamp. Now then, as 2 of my basses have had a MM pickup fitted, do Instick it in a pedal or get the router out...?
  19. In a paper bag, on your doorstep.
  20. I’ll just leave this here... https://youtu.be/jHPOzQzk9Qo
  21. MojoJojo would be a good place to start then.
  22. Do you have a particular sound in mind?
