you got two now with the horn? Or one sub one?

it was sometime last decade before the world went crazy

try this... some good starting places. the guy who makes them plays a Yamaha Sheehan thingy so modern sounding P http://drtonelab.com

have you found Dr Tonelab on facebook yet?

So fun story. I went up to Walshy's to try vintage sounding P basses. This did not have a vintage sound, but it did have one of the nicest necks I've ever played. It also looks so good in the flesh It that the Chris tribute model?

the "I bought this new 800w head and sent it back the next day cos the fan kicked in" thing you see sometimes

Firmware updated the output and global settings?

for me how a thing sounds on a gig is the main thing. Like if it was 100% home use then my laptop is more powerful than pretty much any effects pedal on the market and I would just work out a way to use that for signal processing. Not sure if a) that's elitist, I guess some of you might still be using 486s? and b) if anyones done much gigging this year anyway Also - I bought an electric guitar last week... this hx stomp thing is very nice with that too.

To be fair @dave_bass5 pedal buying and views have saved me and probably others a fair bit of money in the past! Don’t knock it, unbiased reviews are good!!

Has that guy unplugged the ones thhe don’t need? 🤣

I’ve got this weird sense of déjà vue - you sure you haven’t meantioned something similar a few time before in this thread?

I've got the wood parts in the garage all ready to put together into a sub variant of the BCcab

was that my old one? Sunburst '57ri?

Person of colour ???

so you would seek a mythical holy grail rather than a mythical investment. The first set of JV (with Fender logo and Squier series) were very good and also collectable as there's not many of them - they drive a high price because they were good and also cos of the collectible nature of them. As the price of them goes up there comes a market for "JV Squier" - where it serves any seller well to try and pretend that all JV Fender/Squier are created equal (they are not) or that they have US parts and hardware (they do not, at least for basses).... generally though Japanese Fender/Squier are pretty good but seem to have a very large asking price. Are they objectively "better" than a US Fender from that era - the better ones anecdotally are... are they better than current US fender? who knows - I've played some dogs from the US fender factory the last few years.

So you think a JV Squier shouldn’t be sold for more than £100? if you’ve got one can I buy it off you?

Though I would say that I’ve kept quiet as it’s something I’ve got involved in in the past it’s not my main professional skill set, so if someone else knows more than me, or you’ve tested it and it works... ignore me!

We are using a black magic atem mini - it’s a little 4 input video mixer that will stream directly. into it we’ve got some camera they bought that can pan and zoom and two pocket mini cameras that my work loaned. The 4th input is the words /pot from a PC with some of it set as a colour to be keyed out. the audio is fed in directly from the desk. the nice thing about the atem mini is it will take hdmi in - so a lot of nicer digital cameras will be able to be used as cameras. Professionally I’ve helped out with video on a few live events in the past @owen I would be sceptical of a WiFi network being reliable enough for live broadcast/streamed video without lagging or glitches

Same. its an odd time. Some folk are working but unable to spend ouwt as you can’t go out so have spending money. Then I know working musicians, and people around music and events and there’s literally no work on

I'm sorry to hear about the health issues @gafbass02 That bass looks crazy (in a good way) - it looks like it's got thumb bass pickup placement ... but on a stretched out body

on a budget mass-produced bass retailing for £330 I would think that looks all ok to me.

Out of interest...How are you going to buy multiple pickguards for that one?

Right - just looked too complex to draw whole thing but it’s this one... https://bartolini.net/docs/ntmb-wiring-archive/ Only change is the volume pot is wired like this with the switch. So yellow goes via switch. bridge pickup switching is simple, just look up humbucker coil switching online- it’s wired neck parallel bridge I think
