    I was so expecting to get on with this amp that I binned the original box. However, all the rest of the bits are here, including the posh little bag, UK mains plug, sticker and manual on a CD-ROM. This bite-sized bass amp has been used precisely twice, for less than an hour in total. I just didn't like the constant fan noise, which apparently is a feature not a fault. Would be fine for playing with other musicians I guess, and everyone seems to love these amps, but my main use case was (quiet) solo home practice and it's too noisy. Don't make the same mistake! Full skinny here: https://peavey.com/product/trace-elliot-elf-ultra-compact-bass-amplifier/ Pick up from Hove or UK postage at cost. Hit me with your vexed questions.

    Had an email the other day from Hobgoblin looking for small-scale investments from their customer base.

    I imagine that's what they'll be doing. Whether you follow suit or not is up to you. It will make things much easier if you do the same, though who knows what you might discover through having to play in Eb in standard tuning?

    Overthinking?

    I got an Elf and was shocked by the fan noise, always on and way loud (I do need to play in acoustic settings). So out of the other pocket bass amps around, which ones have quiet cooling that people are happy with? Gnome, maybe?

    Or maybe looking ahead at possible trade barriers between US and Mexico? Not sure Indonesia is in any different position, though

    Bought Bas's Future Impact synth pedal one day, it arrived the next. Excellent transaction from start to finish.

    John's Shure wireless system came to me exactly as described, thoughtfully packed and for a reasonable price. Great comms and a pleasure doing business – thanks JohnR.

    You would need to split the signal, but you also have the problem of syncing the loops. Try to do it by feel and you generally find the two loops won’t stay together. The longer you play them, the more out of step they become. So you’d need to use something like midi clock sync. Alas, I don’t think either of the loopers you mention supports that feature.

    I bought Dave's Filter Twin pedal and am very happy with it. Cheers @davebass66!

    I bought a BF Big Baby cab from Neil and suggest you all do the same. He’s da man and so are his labradors. @P-ZARN Thanks for a straightforward and pleasant sale, and for coffee and fancy bass fondlage. 👍

    A (moderately) famous (at the time) touring band cancelled their gig at our polytechnic ents hall *on the night* because their drummer was sending the noise-o-meter off the scale and they wouldn't/couldn't make him/it any quieter. I helpfully suggested they could use the support band's drum kit and I wish I could convey in words the dirty look I got in response.

    No, that's coyotes

    Four pages in and nobody said 'cajon' yet? (For the drummers in the house, it's a fancy word for 'wooden participation box').
