Joyo boards look pretty tough and are two thirds the price of a Pedaltrain.

That might be one for Happy Jack's neck less fret.

It's really difficult to criticise something as good as that. I can't hear anything I'd change in it. Good job. I like all the arpegiator stuff.

[quote name='CamdenRob' timestamp='1443714580' post='2877114'] I dunno... that would mean they had two members who weren't good enough to play the guitar [/quote] Or looking at it another way; a guitarist trying to make out he is the most important member of the band.

I watched that before and that explain's Eric Czar's recent video on YouTube. Guess his bit didn't make the cut. http://youtu.be/zOwfI4RgfrE

Can't promise anything but I have passed your post onto a contact in the Northumberland jazz scene.

Don't think I'll ever get bored with work of this quality. Still looks top notch.

There is also the matter of economies of scale. Behringer produce many thousands of products each year. Boutique manufacturers produce a few score of products each year. Companies producing thousands of units can sell each unit at a much lower price. Think why supermarkets sell for so much less than a small shop. Simple economics.

And another thing. I would love to see a collaboration between Hackett and Tony Banks. Before Mr. Hacket starts lobbing heavy objects in my direction, I don't think that will ever happen now, sadly.

I wish he would do more instrumental tunes. They were always the best bits from the past. I remember an interview talking of Dik Cadbury suggesting the dropping of lyrics on a couple of instrumentals cause they worked far better without words. I'm sure Spectral Mornings was one of them. Very individual player, no one else like him.

When you change strings you should always check the setup. Particularly when you change types. Don't be afraid of adjustments to a bass. There are loads of good videos on youtube that will help you. Jason from Fodera has just put up a series of very useful videos on the subject. If you are taking the strings off altogether then you can't really avoid having to check setup. Setup changes with climate conditions and your playing so should be checked and adjusted as a matter of course. http://youtu.be/Jvm_DT0GHIM

Yet another happy customer here. Just had Harry's Pedaltrain delivered. Great guy to deal with and packed very efficiently. Dal with confidence.

You could check on manufacturers websites what the milliamps are for each pedal. The milliamps might also be detailed somewhere on the pedal. That's almost more important than the voltage. Most, but not all, are 9v but the milliamps vary. Add up the total milliamps and that will let you know what power supply to look for. Isolated outputs will give you least noise but these boxes tend to be more expensive.

Status do a wide strap in two lengths, a Mark King height one and a 'punk' length one, ie. round your knees. I would say get some professional advice from someone like an osteopath. He/she can tell you what's wrong, manipulate the joints and let you know how to avoid it in the future. There have been a couple of other similar threads recently with lots of good advice as will appear here.

You could try scrolling to the very bottom of any page and you will see two buttons, Click on "Full Version" and that will bring up the page as you see it on a PC. Much easier to navigate as you want to from there.

Any progress with this?

Yup! I have had labella nylon flats on my Status Electro, Roto nylons at the moment. Just a dream to play and a beautiful velvety tone.

[quote name='Wot' timestamp='1441661607' post='2860765'] Hello fellow Northumbrian! I'm using a TC Electronic Hall of Fame Mini, TC Electronic Ditto Looper, Behringer BOD400 and a TC Electronic BodyRez for the acoustic. Not much but it does the job [/quote] I've only heard the Body Rez on you tube but it sounds like a useful bit of kit.

I do like the fretless. I have one that I had rebuilt some years ago. As you say, plays like butter.

Welcome on board,Wot, from another in Northumberland. Well nearly. About one mile from the border, on the right side of course near Berwick. What effects are you using?

Cort Action V DLX. Mine cost me £250 new. Lovely neck and sounds good too. I don't think it has a real figured top though. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=86BKil3CEcc
