    I loved Dire Straits. First three albums at least. But that wasn't my point. Popular had become bland, manufactured, and safe. Oasis and the rest of their ilk brought it back. It goes in phases, or at least it did. I don't know what popular music sounds like any more

    It seems we must disagree. I hope the forum can cope.

    The gap between the strings I assume. So middle is my guess.

    Well, I use oasis as an example to signify the return of guitar pop rather than suggest they were the best band ever However compared to simply red they were genius

    I love the Joyo amp, mine is sat on a 1x10 but those TCE cabs look great. Are they 2x8s?

    For me The 80s started really well, by 84 it had begun to be very slim pickings and almost nothing of note from 85 onwards. Music started again with Oasis. These are obviously broad brush strokes.

    Apologies I was responding to your offer to try not looking to buy right now

    Looks great @mcnach Funnily enough, I'm getting the blue JJ with the white guard. Even though I believe tort is the absolute gold standard colour for a pickguard, it looks very wrong with the blue.

    Very kind, but London is a bit too far for me
  10. stewblack
    That seems very fair. Considerate even.

    The four string is light as a feather
  12. stewblack
    That's a great looking bass.

    Well, I do have too many effects and not enough gigs, so really I ought to sell some. But no! Hands off! I still love my Plethora.

    Gigged with it in memory mode on Saturday. I was bedeviled by the same problem I have whenever I use preprogrammed effects patches. No matter how assiduously I set them up at home, get on stage and there are glaring differences in volume between the patches, and what sounds amazing at home seldom sounds great live. Nothing wrong with the unit just my cack handed inability to program stuff properly.

    Not a problem. Good luck with your sale

    If you decide you can post it I'll be interested

    Wow! You must have spent more on strings than on the bass 😜
  18. stewblack
    Thanks for the response. I'll have a dive in and see

    Oh god yes. Not just the audience numbers either. If I let myself mither on anything beyond playing, these days I totally lose focus. Must be my age. Last night it was altering an effect and wondering why it was so far out of kilter when I'd spent so long balancing it with the other effects. Couldn't get my head off that and onto the job in hand. Also a problem with the PA was on my mind and I felt I let myself down when that surfaced. Weird.

    Anyone using the X-Air Android app? Had a problem last night and I couldn't find a solution. One of the BV mics would not send to one of the monitors. We use four monitor mixes, the mic went to my in-ears, to the drummer's in-ears, to the keyboardist's monitor cab no problem. But it didn't come out of the singer's monitor. All other mics did come out of her monitor. Any ideas?

    I often use your videos, really appreciate the work you put in

    Singer in that particular band has a great attitude. Even if there's only a handful of folk, it's their Saturday night out, and we are there to entertain them.

    Played to one man and his dog on a dark stage in Bath last night. Got paid, could barely see my bass, but we were ok. The owner was embarrassed for the poor turn out and very complimentary about the band.
  24. stewblack
    Very interested in this thread

    The neck now feels smooth. When the tea is still wet it's an invisible repair. Who knows? It might gradually stain down and match.
