    I love Tori Amos’ cover of Happiness is a Warm Gun:

    I’ve got some info and diagrams on modding these to true bypass if you want, I’ll just dig them out. Edit: here we are..

    Mostly fingers for me - all of my practice time is spent playing fingerstyle unless it’s for a certain song where I want the sound of a pick. for me it’s a green tortex (I think it’s 0.8mm).

    True, I sometimes produce overtones when my balls aren’t sitting right.

    In that case, you’d be better off just buying a power amp, that’s what I ended up doing.

    I had one for a while and it always kept up with any band I played with. The EQ is based on the classic ‘fender’ style, so fully flat is (if memory serves) bass straight up, mids on full, and treble cut a little bit, so if you’re ok with that then it’s a no-brainer for that price!

    Indeed, the strength of plastic is as varied as wood.

    Gloomy Sunday - Billie Holiday.

    Ed Friedlands book on creating walking bass lines are great from a theory perspective - they use standard notation throughout, and are great for learning and developing chord theory.

    Top knobbage!

    Gigs, and plenty of them. ☹️

    My personal contributions to this thread would be Billie Holiday and Sarah Vaughan - two opposite ends of the ‘vocal abilities’ spectrum, but despite her limitations, every note that Billie sings just hits me right in the feels.

    The title says of this thread is ‘knobs’; I think you’ll find that these are not in fact knobs, but lamentable cnuts.

    I first heard Lala Hathaway on Marcus Miller’s ‘live and more’ album, where she delivers a jaw-dropping rendition of ‘Summertime’. I was listening to the album at a friend’s house (who is a singing teacher) and she spotted it first. Suffice to say she’s been on my playlist since! Devin Townsend is an amazing vocalist too, and I really rate Maynard James Keenan from Tool - he’s got quite a set of pipes on him too.

    Moi aussi, it’s nice to feel like you’ve made someone’s reasonably priced dream come true.

    Laminate body to give it the strength that it would have had if we hadn’t made that yawning chasm in it in the first place. Right.....

    That diagram’s correct.

    Sweet baby Jesus and the orphans! That’s beautiful!!!
