Thanks Ped

Ah but there's the rub. How can we ever know why people are wearing hats? There are so many reasons. We can't read their minds and even if we could they might be confused as to their own reasons. It's a conundrum this hat business.

Guessing this isn't ringing any bells. Would it be best to upload to YouTube and embed?

Aha! It's a small world.

Hi folks I'm trying to put a short demo video up with a for sale ad and I keep getting a message saying I'm only allowed 200mb. My video is only 144mb. Any ideas what's occurring here?

It all depends on what I'm offering being to his taste of course. It is a lovely bass but I have others similar to it. I have nothing like the Yamaha I don't know...

@Al Krow the one for sale here

Do you know @Al Krow, I've never played a Yammy. I have just offered a trade for one though...

I agree with Andy

See that beauty in deepest tobacco and black plate? I'd never seen one in the flesh until recently. A guy rehearsing in the same place as us had one and by jimminy it was something to behold. Not fussed about the black and green ones (although I'm sure they play and sound fine) but the others have me drooling.

I played that rally once in the distant past. Great fun isn't it?

Steam Railway, Swindon. Nice venue, friendly staff, punters usually up for a good time. A bit quiet due to the bank holiday but those present enjoyed themselves thoroughly. Only blot on an otherwise fun evening: Despite using the space suggested by the venue, the same one I always use, in the carpark of a row of shops all closed at that time of night I came out to a parking fine stuck under my wiper. 75 quid. So taking my petrol into account that cost me dearly to play tonight. I can't believe anyone patrols a virtually empty carpark at 9 o'clock at night. Nor that a private company has the legal right to issue fines. Ah well, I shall say the serenity prayer and try to get some sleep.

Just bought a fretless. As I was en-route to a gig it came with me. He'd a playful noodle in the sound check. Sounded gorgeous so I went for it. Half time break and only a couple of dodgy moments and only a handful of gratuitous sliding into the final note. I'm loving this

Just had a dodgy car park meet with @therealting bought a bass outside Asda and it went swimmingly. Thoroughly decent bloke, great transaction. Delighted to recommend to you.

@Al Krow looks incredible, but with my lumbago I'd never get my leg up high enough to operate those pedals.

Interesting perspective.

So what do you guys do via a vis pedal boards? Receiver on the amp and use two long leads and the effects loop? Receiver at the pedal board and one lead back to the amp? Two different wireless transmitters /receivers one between bass and pedal board in and one between pedal board out and amp? Does it matter?

What a fine fellow and fabulous Basschatter @Shaggy is. With no prompting whatsoever he saw I was in need and like the fabled cavalry he rushed to my aid. I was lacking a slider cap for a Trace Elliot head. Given their scarcity and the enormous demand he could have literally named his price. So did he? Did he take the chance to empty my coffers? Did he heck as like. He popped it in an envelope and entrusted it to the care of the GPO. It arrived today. My amp is no longer a gap toothed monstrosity but rather a beautiful smiling mid scooped wonder. I commend sir Shagworthy of Shagtown to you all. He is a Prince among men.

Best review of anything, ever.
