  1. Hi, feeling just a little bit smug having correctly diagnosed and fixed a fault with my semi acoustic bass. Less smug about having taken the whole thing apart which I really didn't need to do. Anyway it's back in one piece with functioning pups. My question is can anything be done with the broken pup? Are they repairable?
  2. Yep. Very useful, surprisingly small piece of kit.
  3. BL just started deleting gigs from our diary. I'll cope but she's a single parent who literally sings for her supper.
  4. Don't know if what I feel is the result of ocd. But it does give me the willies. Looks like that poor little BF might just fold up 😮 Bet it sounds great though.
  5. One of my favourite things about being a musician is the drive home. Largely because of this!
  6. The crazy cheapness of these units illustrated by the fact that a rack case costs the same or more!
  7. I thought that. Thanks Phil.
  8. Are the two variable outputs on the psu isolated from the group of 9v outputs by any chance?
  9. Technical question coming in at numptie level, aimed at boffin level. I have a a Trace Elliot AH500X which I like to use biamped mode. The internal crossover does a perfect job and I like the results. Can one buy a crossover (something boxed for external use) which would enable me to do this with any two heads of my choice? Is it as simple as plugging into one of these?
  10. Does look nice doesn't it? Amazing how much a pickguard changes a bass.
  11. I use fast fret and a duster
  12. Oh wait - I get it. Leave it with me
  13. I feel I needed to be better prepared for this question. Erm. What?
  14. Yep. Working on modes and minor scales.
  15. Watching that was like having sex. A long, drawn out, torturous procedure ending in a predictable and disappointingly brief eruption.
  16. No this is Midsomer Norton, it was rammed. Until most of them staggered off to find kebabs. My band mates who live in posh cities like Bath and Oxford were aghast at all the close contact and sharing of bodily fluids.
  17. That looks really neat. Not familiar with those cabs.
  18. Technically speaking my gig was tonight not last night. Early start as the punters had been hard at it all day gambling on the outcome of horses running with little people sat on them. The human detritus left by the time we were in full swing did not give a hoot for live music. Still, got paid and home in bed before 11. I'll take that. I used my Trace in biamp mode. Two ten with horn on top, fifteen below. Best on stage sound I can remember having. I guess the height, being able to adjust the volume levels going into each cab and the inherent Trace magic, combined with those Detroit Flats on my Bass Centre P just came together to create a perfect storm. I keep vascilating between TE and SVT as the greatest thing ever. I guess they're equal but just very different beasts.
  19. Landed a real peach of a dep slot at a festival end of May. Hope its not cancelled. Pub today was packed. I will survive as there is food in the house but I'll be skint if gigs get cancelled
  20. Yes sorry, I am muddying the waters a little aren't I, 🤦🏼‍♂️
  21. That's very decent of you! I'm working in Scallys tomorrow evening! So we're both in WSM
  22. First time out
  23. Pearl?
