  1. ABM or Steinberger (original or licenced).
  2. Are we back to this soft masturbating thing again?

    DIY Effects

    There's more info in https://aionfx.com/app/files/docs/l4_bass_preamp_documentation.pdf
  4. MB150 or 200MB combo then? Very compact, 12" speaker, usable for gigs if you're not playing against a hard-hitting drummer.
  5. But did it go "NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!"? When I decided (due to it being the Thing To Do) to buy a Fender, a long long time ago, I went to Musical Exchanges in Brum and tried the three second-hand Precisions they had. The most playable of them was (fortunately) also the cheapest, probably because it was also the most battered. There was a huge variation between them despite all of them being 70s vintage (this was around 1985).
  6. No, you should have a savoury biscuit, or maybe crisps, with g&t. Ritz or Tuc, I'd say.
  7. There's an interesting YouTube video about how those are the work of the devil, and I think it was well argued.
  8. And, of course, I have to spend enough to get free postage.
  9. Yes, but of course the money has to be spent with them.
  10. I think Thomann may be changing their approach to returns on smaller items. I bought an HB power supply which couldn't do what I needed, so I started a return. They got back to me and said "As returning this item would not be economically or environmentally friendly, we would like to exceptionally offer to refund the value of the item onto your Thomann customer account as a store credit without taking it back.". I've said yes, as I'm bound to be using them again. I suspect B***** has something to do with this.
  11. Not cheap, but https://www.southernukulelestore.co.uk/hipshot-road-toad-custom-black-ukulele-bass-machine-heads-set-of-4/
  12. When I've got the pedalboard, HX Stomp. When I haven't, Zoom MS-60B. At home, for accuracy doing intonation, Korg GA Custom in strobe mode (not a pedal).
  13. They seem to have a minor numeracy issue, as there's a Yamaha TRB1006 in the 5-strings from £500 to £1000 section. I counted the strings in the photo just to be sure.
  14. Perhaps there's a case for a slightly different shape. Rather than having parallel sides, have the sides curving out and back in, like a very elongated barrel. Subtle though, so the bottom line of the plate curves with the bottom line of the bass body.
  15. It's now been changed to a listing for a box.
  16. Ah, the Socket-Shagger. One to avoid.
  17. No, but I did use to turn crisp packets inside out and rub them on the bars of table football tables between the handles and the table to lubricate them.
  18. Orange juice and soda, maybe a pint of ale later and possibly a second while taking down. I used to drink a bit more when Mrs Zero was driving us home but I find I no longer have the urge. Probably a scotch or two when I get home, doing the post-gig wind down (gigs are sufficiently infrequent that I still do that).
  19. Something I intend to do soon, just need to get round to taking the laptop and HX Stomp upstairs where the reamp box and Behringer USB interface are waiting, and see if I can train it to a HX Stomp patch that I like.
  20. Use glasses to read - I can just about make out a set list, but if I'm still using notes at rehearsal I need them. Also need them to set up and see what amp control is what. Don't wear them when gigging.
  21. I have two Zoom MS-60Bs. Nominally they are identical, but one is missing a knob. It also has one switch which has failed to function. I also have two Tascam GB-10s, one of which is mildly faulty (I can't transfer songs via USB) but otherwise OK. I also have several sets of Elite strings.
  22. Wasn't it from being hit with goats that had been killed by hammering them to death?
  23. Not even consistently wrong. 2007/2008 on the auction title, and 1966 in the description. Would even a 2007 one have a headstock truss rod adjuster?
