  1. Still Schallers for me. Keep meaning to drop a little 3 in 1 into the locking bit and never getting round to it.
  2. So it has its good points then.
  3. I'm not quite sure how you signify an incredulous tone in text. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/195616713872 And someone's asking £550 for just a body. That used to get you an entire bass.

  4. Went for £550 and if it plays as well as it looks, that's money well spent.
  5. You're all just encouraging his addiction. @ash, burn them and go cold turkey, you'll thank me for it.
  6. If only that was a 5-string. And headless. And fretless.
  7. Soft synth inna box? https://zynthian.org/
  8. From their website: ITS OWN APP With a constantly expanding library of patches and effects, bassists can continue to expand their sound with the "Handy Guitar Lab for B2 FOUR" app (for iOS), available to purchase on the Apple App Store. So you can mess around with Guitar Lab on your phone if you're one of the 25% with iOS but not if you're one of the 70% with Android, just like the MS-100BT couldn't be used with Android but only with iOS. Nothing to do with audio.
  9. Was it good for metal?
  10. Well, it's consistent with the other $hit that he peddles. At least it's honestly titled this time.
  11. I sit on a stool, having had assorted back issues for years, starting after a bike crash in 2001 which broke several ribs round my right scapula and caused a fair bit of soft tissue damage. More recently, my back deteriorated during lockdown as I wasn't walking enough.

    It might even be DC, if there's no DC blocking capacitor in the output of the sound card or input of the amp and there's a DC offset. In that case, just a large value capacitor in line with the input would do the job.
  13. Shame that Basslab is in Japan, I'd like to try one.
  14. The fact that neither of them can pronounce "Warwick" is another point against.
  15. It looks interesting, though I don't understand why Zoom continue to ignore 70% of the market by only catering for Apple, as they did with the MS-100BT.
  16. I like the Zoom B3n, but haven't tried the B1x or B6 (and I've got enough multiFX at the moment). If you're not bothered about ease of switching effects, the Zoom MS-60B is a single stompbox that can have a chain of effects - easy programming through a PC, fairly easy programming on the unit itself.
  17. Not the wooden one, but I've got an AT800 Cube combo, and I like it for the weight and the sound. Good clarity and I think it's pretty flat response.
  18. I just specified dimensions. The port hole isn't so bad, hole saws of that diameter are readily available, but in hindsight I'm sure I could have done a better job on the speaker cut-out.
  19. That included the wood. B&Q stores do free cutting for five cuts, then 50p/cut afterwards, not sure if that's all of them and you'd need to inspect the available wood to get the best: https://www.diy.com/services/timber-cutting As for the build:
  20. There's a couple missing, I think. Laney DP150 and Ohm 1x15 cab GK 200MB (the combo predecessor to the MB150) TE 4x10 combo (serious mistake, weighed as much as my car) Another Laney DP150 and home-made 2x10 TE AH250 head with the home-made 2x10 Tech Soundsystems 4x10 EA iAmp 500 EA iAmp 800 Ashdown Superfly Ashdown Superduperfly Tecamp Puma 900 Barefaced Big Baby 2 GR Bass AT800 Cube combo Still have the last two, and a BC micro cab, plus a BC 112 still under construction.
  21. Because I'm not great at woodwork, I went to https://www.woodsheets.com/ and got everything cut to size for the 1x6, which cost about £30 with postage. That just leaves the issue of cutting out a round hole, which I didn't do entirely successfully but it was good enough.
  22. Truss rod cover is a little askew. No logo on the headstock - is it a decal rather than an inlay?
  23. The thing about USB-C is that it can go up to 20V using a little controller - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/193527265113
