  1. Using Google translate.. so expect some wonkiness - Bax Music has requested a deferment of payment today, Jochanan Bax confirms following reports from the PZC. The company is in financial trouble due to a combination of a decline in turnover and millions in debt to the tax authorities. Things have gone wrong since corona," says co-founder and shareholder Jochanan Bax. "Professionals stopped taking action then. We then received corona support, but it still had to be repaid, of course." Then there was a fire in 2023. "As a result, there was little focus on commerce," says Bax. Discussion then arose about the future of the company. A number of shareholders wanted to sell it. “I wanted to grow,” says Bax. Dismissal The disagreement escalated earlier this year. Jochanan Bax was fired by the other shareholders - his brother Nathanaël, father-in-law Hans van Deursen and investor Rabo Participaties. An interim management was subsequently appointed. He tried to help the company out of its financial dire straits. But the debts turned out to have risen too high, writes the PZC. There is talk of excessive investments and failure to pay tax debts. Receiver An administrator has now been appointed who, together with the management, is investigating options for a restart. Jochanan Bax says that he will certainly announce himself as the buyer of the remaining shares. Nathanaël Bax could not be reached for a response this afternoon. Bax Music Bax Music is one of the largest online music stores in Europe. It was founded in 2003 by brothers Nathanaël and Jochanan Bax with a store in Goes. The company has stores in Goes, Apeldoorn, Rotterdam, Amsterdam, Antwerp and Bruges.
  2. That's very very similar to my tone. I use a Sansamp.
  3. Ahh, "Free speech!" The clarion call of the right wing moron.
  4. Ask if it's possible to group the Eb flat songs together maybe. Then you can possibly cog down quickly and just crack on.
  5. Apart from lugging the gear about, the feel of the HEFT is worth the grief for me.
  6. The amount I play it, it's not worth doing TBH. I've got a P bass that need refretting and I think the truss rod as gone on it too
  7. Ah, hope. One of the cruelest of all expectations.
  8. @thebrig This guy, Davey, has gone through most of The Stranglers catalogue and uploaded play along bass. No tabs BUT you can hear the bass lines much better and get a damn good idea of what he's playing by watching the video. It's been great watching him get more confident as he goes and his bass lines are nigh on flawless. I have learnt lots of bits watching him, that maybe I didn't make enough effort to figure out before. Give him a sub and enjoy. TheRavenofGenetix1979
  9. Bright rounds. Sansamp. Pick. My (distinctly poor) technique.
  10. Yup, a standard steel string folk type.
  11. I guess I'm used to a brighter sound but I'm not opposed to a bit warmer. I'd not heard of flat acoustics and they actually sound like a joy to play.
  12. 11s to compensate for my hamfisted technique but yes, maybe I should drop to 10s to see.
  13. I occasionally pick up my old Yamaha acoustic 6 string and struggle to get on with it, much of this is due to the strings just being hard work (and I am in no way a natural player). I reckon a lower tension set of strings would make life so much easier. Any recommendations welcome, lower cost is ideal.
  14. Yeah. I've noticed 😔 Ain't that the way!
  15. I'm hankering after getting another Ashdown mini 4x8 (why did I ever sell the last one?!?!). Would be grateful if anyone can let me know if there are any available. Cheers M
