Why don't they give the weights in proper instead of groats and furlongs, or at least as well of them? I don't want to have to divide things by 2.2 to get a proper answer. Perhaps they don't want to sell outside primitive countries.

As the successor to the Tecamp Puma 900, the Eich T900 would get my vote.

All of my 5s are 34" scale length and they seem fine.

They went flying off the shelves when they first came out and not everyone will get on with 5 strings and/or headlesses. Or they may find the neck profile not entirely to their liking, or the sound.

The practical difference being?

The BlingRay?

There's a switch on them specially for you.

One song that regularly gets misplayed is Bad Moon Rising. It's not in either band's setlist but I've done it previously, and encounter it fairly regularly at open mic nights. The first and second choruses only go round once, the final one goes round twice (or more, depending on how it's ended) but a lot of the time people do the first and second choruses as double length ones.

A.C.UR.!BL

That does mean there will be a rogue BL gone feral in Gloucester. Possible future entertainment from the JMB adverts.

Oddly, it took months before I realised it was in 7/8 - I'd simply been playing what I heard on the original track and the guitarist was playing it right, it hadn't clicked that it didn't quite fit into normal length bars. I was in a club band which went out in various forms, sometimes the guitarist was the singer and other times we had a singer. He could hit the right notes, in the right order, but song structures were a bit of a mystery to him, so the rest of us were quite adept at following him into a verse where there should have been a chorus, or vice versa, or bringing the vocals in seven bars into a 12-bar guitar solo. Still, that wasn't permanent structure changes, they were very very temporary.

It's how the last couple of basses I've had from China have been packaged.

I can cope with one or two frets. As soon as it gets to three, I've got no chance. Especially when they then throw a few barre chords in too for good measure.

Harley Davidson closing their Reverb store. No more of these: or these

It's also advisable to resize your pictures so they're a reasonable file size, if you haven't already done that - 4MB pictures will rapidly eat up your allowance. And if you give them fairly meaningful names, and need to reuse the pictures, you can use "Other Media" | "Insert existing attachment" to do that.

There's a song about that. "Mustang Sarnie".

I think we were separated at birth. What you could try (with no guarantee that this will work) is to put up four 8' x 1' (if we're insisting on using antique measurements) shelves above the current desk-like object, and transfer the topmost strata from said desk-like object to the shelves. This will also allow you to impose a temporary organisation on the objects thereby moved, and possibly even dispose of some of them (unlikely, I know, but you may find the right hard place in your heart).

Rather ironic given that the USA had brought in legislation mandating which side the foot controls should be and determined that the gear shift should be on the left, where the Japanese had it, not the right, where the Americans and British had it.

Our singer works for a dog rescue charity - a small scale one, it's not Battersea Dog's Home. We've done a charity gig for them, in a village hall, with helpers doing the drinks sales and suchlike. We were quite happy to do that unpaid. Mrs Zero and I have also been in another band which did a couple of charity gigs - again, these were local charities and we knew the organisers. We did do one where we got paid - we gave half our fee back.

Is it good for metal?

It was just a case of sorting out the stops and the accents.

Just thought I'd add a bit more to this, in case anyone else encounters something similar. I was using the Spark Neo for a bit of practice today and there was a noticeable amount of white noise coming through. When I put my hand on the transmitter, it stopped. A short extension lead moving the transmitter away from the bass and towards me also stopped it. Then I swapped bass to another active bass, and that also stopped it. Can't see anything wrong with the shielding on that bass (Antoniotsai with aftermarket Bart pickups and Delano Sonar preamp), I'll just stick to not using it with the Spark.

It's cut and boost, but asymmetrical.

I've had three Peaveys: a Grind BXP 6, a Grind BXP 5, and a Zephyr C5. Both Grinds were 35" scale, the Zephyr was 34". String spacing on the Zephyr was 16mm, on the Grind 5 16.5mm, and on the Grind 6 a rather tighter 15.5mm. Sticker added for cosmetic purposes: The Zephyr had a slightly fatter neck than the Grinds - that went first, the other two later.
