I keep meaning to mention that among the many unChristian things that the supposed Christian Trump does is tax dodging. Perhaps he ought to read the bible that he's flogging.

A misspelling. https://www.eileenworkman.com/

But different pickups of the same overall construction sound different, otherwise people wouldn't (say) stick DiMarzios in Fenders.

If you applied the same criteria as for cars, no bass would be vintage. In fact, as Ps and Js are still in production, they wouldn't even be classics. https://www.differencebetween.info/difference-between-veteran-vintage-and-classic-cars

For something costing more than a couple of hundred quid, I far prefer bank transfer (on collection and in person) to cash. If you're buying, you've got to get the cash out which if you want more than £500 probably means visiting an ATM more than one day, or visiting a branch to get it in person, and then you've got to carry that much cash to the seller. If you're the seller, you then have to get the cash to a bank and you might have to put it in in more than one transaction. Of course, if you keep your money in your mattress, this doesn't apply.

I checked as much as I could for our band name, Dirty Roses, and there's no duplicates, although there's a band of four good ol' boys from Bama called "Them Dirty Roses" (who look to be considerably busier than we are - six gigs in nine days in six different states).

I've used bank transfer when collecting basses (and motorcycles) in person, and when selling basses (and motorcycles) and they've been collected in person. In those cases, we did the transfer on collection.

And electrical characteristics, as a pickup is inductive, resistive, and IIRC slightly capacitive too.

There's a couple of Spectre Sound Studio videos where Glenn demonstrates the total lack of difference in guitar pickups, while making absolutely and completely clear that he's talking about heavily distorted guitars playing metal. And yet he still gets people complaining that the pickups sound different when played without distortion, which wasn't his point. Low End Lobster does a few comparisons between different ranges of bass with different pickups, eg the Ibanez EHB series with Bart BH2s on the low end ones and Nordstrands on the top of the range (although there's now another range with Fishman pickups), and also the same basses after he's changed the pickups. Pickups will colour the sound to a greater or lesser extent - I would say that the ideal is a pickup that doesn't significantly colour the sound, so you can add colour of your own. That means it's got to put out a full range of sound pretty evenly, not be weak at the bottom or top end, because you can always take away but you can't add what isn't there. Alternatively, you get a pickup which is pre-coloured the way you want it, though that then limits the range of sounds you can get from it.

I may be able to supply further evidence (not for Mixing Station but for the X-Air app on Android). When I installed it on one tablet, I omitted to give it write permissions to the filesystem. While I could save scenes and snapshots, whenever I tried to store an amended layout (Layers option), it crashed out. Very frustrating until I worked out what I'd done (or not done). So scenes are written to the mixer, as are all the settings from when you last switched it off, and layouts to the local storage.

It is easy. You also won't put a twist in the string. DBEs are even easier as you don't have to cut the strings, but the bass has to be the right scale length (in fairness, basses with DBE headstocks will be the right scale length).

Just wait a couple of months, Trump will get rid of all protection and there will be a roaring trade in MOP and ivory.

Tuesday night - Cavern Club in Tamworth. Duties as house bassist consisted of accompanying mine host at the beginning and end of the night, and trying to jam "You give love a bad name" (I got 2/3 of the chords right). There's definite hope for the future - the girl singing said Bon Jovi song is 12, and there was another 12 year old girl singing, both with good voices, the teenage guitarist doing Bon Jovi is also a good singer and got another couple of teenage/early 20s girls up to sing. Mrs Zero and I recycled the film songs (Ring of Bright Water, Mad World, Hanging Tree). Last night - accompanied various people. Cocked up accompanying on "Flowers" by Miley Cyrus, everything else went OK. Did "Kiss from a Rose" and "Sleeping Satellite" with Mrs Zero - I can never fingerpick the intro and bridge parts to "Kiss" cleanly but she insisted.

I had one, just checked my pictures of it which are a bit dark but the bridge on mine is a smaller footprint (about half the distance front to back), it's got drop-in slots rather than holes for the strings, and the saddles are different.
