As you say, the T Rex Classic looks like it's limited to a total of 500mA DC. The Cioks AC10 might do the job - https://www.bax-shop.co.uk/b-stock/product/1204643/b-stock-cioks-ac10-ac-dc-effects-pedal-multi-power-supply In my experience of trying assorted power supplies with the HX Stomp, if it gets insufficient power, you know about it straight away as it won't even complete starting up.

I haven't used a B6 so this is based on my knowledge of the B3 and B3n. You have various modes that you can use it in, and the two that would most likely be useful to you while playing are patch (Memory) mode and stompbox (Effect board) mode. Memory mode just needs one press of a button to switch between the four patches within the same bank, so you would use those for significantly different sounds either within a song or from one song to another. Effect board mode means you can switch effects on and off within a patch. More than four patches and you need to do a bit of tap-dancing in Bank/Patch mode to go up or down the banks.

How is the depleted uranium cab lining fixed into place?

When the standard says "1/8 non-clipped output power", is that 1/8 of the measured maximum non-clipped output power or 1/8 of the claimed maximum output power?

A square wave consists of a sum of sine waves at the fundamental frequency and odd order harmonics with an amplitude inversely proportional to the harmonic frequency (at 3f it's 1/3 the amplitude of the fundamental, 5f is 1/5 the amplitude, etc) so there's going to be a fair few harmonics but they're going to be progressively smaller in amplitude.

There's another one I'd like - an unlined fretless Sei Flamboyant 5-string. However, @Boodang seems reluctant to give (or even sell) me his.

Won't the other half get a bit suspicious about having to use a ladder to get into bed?

If you do that, files called image.png (IIRC) get created on the BC server, which are bigger than they need to be. My approach (other approaches are available) is to load the original picture into Irfanview, reduce it in size, save it as a named file, then either drag the named file to the area under the composition window that says "Drag files here to attach, or choose files..." or click on "choose files" and select the named file. Then click "Insert" on the picture and it'll get inserted wherever you've got to in the composition window. It takes less time to do it than it did to type all that.

Reminds me of something...

And some dare to randomly split infinitives.

If you can manage a 34" (865mm in real money) bass, you'll have a wider selection of instruments to choose from - something which doesn't seem to have been addressed yet. I'm another smaller-handed person (or at least shorter-fingered) but have 34" or greater basses. See if you can get comfortable with a 34" neck and if you can't, go shorter.

I first encountered them about 15 years ago in PMT. Seemed to be a decent budget brand even back then.

No, median could even go down with inequality rising while mean increases. eg 10k, 10k, 15k, 15k, 1M. 15k is the median, 210k is the mean. Now this goes to 10k, 10k, 11k, 11k, 2M. The median is now 11k but the mean is 408,400, and inequality has risen.

Weren't they available through one of the catalogues - Littlewoods perhaps? Maybe someone at Making Music had a parent who worked for Littlewoods.

Janek Gwizdala. Victor Wooten. Me. That's for starters.

It's the as-yet undefined point where doubling the amount of money spent on a bass no longer doubles the quality of the bass.

If the quality is anything like the Bass 7 that I once had (which didn't have 7 strings), it's a perfect way to put anyone off ever playing bass.

"Ambling around checking everything's plugged in and switched on music". I think I might surprise my fellow band members and put on the Game of Thrones theme.

Ridiculously overpriced so I'll never have one: Marleaux Diva And for the one I'd love but would never play, a Spector 5-string, because I don't get on with the necks at all.

Warning - guitar content. I've got a few Antoniotsai basses and I like them - electrics aren't fantastic but my first Antoniotsai was the first 5-string that I really got on with. However, I would baulk at paying ten grand for an acoustic, no matter how pretty. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/255417038511 Incidentally, this is my first Antoniotsai (still with me after 16 years):

Even with my penchant for headless 5-string active basses, preferably with through necks, there's a couple on FB marketplace for under £500. Respectable FSO passive 4-strings can easily be had for under £200.

I bought mine in 1988, Dave at Musical Exchange in Birmingham knocked £50 off the £950 asking price.

I haven't had any problems with Evri, or with the latter days of Herpes - it used to be that parcels would get slung over the gate. This may be partly due to lockdown followed by WFH followed by retirement meaning there's generally someone to answer the door, but when there isn't, they leave the parcel in a sensible place.

VLC, I think. I haven't used the feature but you can create a playlist of albums and play them in random order.

If the weight isn't a problem for you then you haven't got a problem. Just don't let other bassists pick it up.
