My golden jubilee year next year too. The band I started out in was part-covers, part-originals with something of a prog feel about them. At that time I didn't have a bass player that influenced me, I just sort of adapted what I'd learnt from being a not very good lead guitarist.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Median In your example, the median would be 10, so admittedly there would be one below and none above. But in the example of education levels of a population, which would be a gaussian distribution, the numbers would be the same.

Couldn't you just leave the bridge pickup in place and not connect it?

Specs available at https://www.cortguitars.com/product/item.php?ca_id=103020&it_id=1707895430&page=1#tab_Specifications D'Addario EXL170-5SL which are 45-65-80-100-130 Don't make any decisions about pickups until you've tried the MK-1s. They seemed OK to me. If you feel determined to change them, check out what people have replaced the pickups in the Ibanez EHB1005 and EHB1265 with.

It's exactly how the median works, by definition.

That's good news, I'd watched a Youtube review of it which showed it with a micro USB port so they must have changed it (saying that, Lekato's pictures of the WS-50 looks like it now has USB-C, so maybe they've updated both).

Depends on whether you're using mean, median, or mode, or whether you say that anybody who understands mean, median, and mode is averagely educated.

Just buy a Cort Space and a TGI Extreme guitar gigbag, problem solved. If you don't want to play 5-string, take the B string off.

Soft synth perhaps - there's the Squishbox and with the Zynthian V5 coming out there may be a few second-hand V4s and earlier on the market from upgrades, or DIY with aid from https://sandsoftwaresound.net/qsynth-fluidsynth-raspberry-pi/ and a HiFiBerry DAC.

Nobody was making 5-string headless basses in 1957. Can't see the point myself. I had a YOSPB bass - year of starting playing bass, which I know it was because I put it together (a Hayman 40/40) and then started playing bass on it. That's long gone. @BassAgent has a vast selection available from 1990 - Warwick, Spector, Status, Dean, B C Rich, Ibanez, Yamaha, he could even scrape the bottom of the barrel and go Fender, Gibson, or Squier.

Further report: Android Tonelib-Zoom works on my Pixel 8 Pro and Nokia T20 tablet. I don't have an OTG adaptor for micro USB (it's on the way) so haven't tested it with the elderly Huawei tablet yet.

I've just installed the Android Tonelib-Zoom to try it out with my MS-60B. Hopefully Tonelib will update Tonelib-Zoom to cater for the recent releases, on both Windows and Android, and maybe they could teach the Zoom developers how to program for Android.

That's a truly awful excuse for Zoom's failure to support Android. The app is a library app, it's not an audio app. There are defined classes to deal with everything that would be required of it, so there's no excuse for not producing the app. And just because you've got a crap tablet doesn't mean that 99.999% of Android users don't have tablets or phones that work an awful lot better - my elderly cheap Huawei tablet, for example. Other manufacturers support Android - Behringer do for the X-Air series, Nux for their Mighty Plug, M-Vave for their wireless MIDI.

There's a couple of good phasers on the Zoom MS-60B (or MS-70CDR).

Tecamp Puma - either the 900 or the 500, second-hand.

Might one of those sound hole stoppers help with the acoustic? https://www.amazon.co.uk/Planet-Waves-Screeching-Acoustic-Soundhole/dp/B0010SHU18

I use my WS-50 at an open mic night - plug it in and switch it on about 8:15pm and turn it off about 11pm. I've also used it for various gigs where it's switched on for 3 hours or so, and used to use it in rehearsals with one band where I'd use it for two 3-hour rehearsals on one charge. Looking at the Amazon specs, the WS-50 was released in 2019 and the WS-90 in 2022. Mind you, the WS-90 still has micro USB on it which is a slight annoyance with the WS-50, especially as the MS-1 IEM wireless is USB-C so they can obviously do it if they try. I suspect that the shorter range and the longer battery life are related. The WS-90 does have four switchable channels which would be useful if more than one band member was using them, and possibly would be useful if there was interference on one channel.

I think it boils down to the engineer aspect being the recording of the instruments and voices, and the producer aspect being putting them all together in a pleasing way. Both may be subject to a degree of interference by the musicians involved, especially the latter.

And there's bad-tempered tuning, when the guitarist sulks because he's been told he's got to use the digital tuner too.

Should have mains cable or bell wire at Home Depot.

PS. If making your own, you need to make sure the leads are connected with the same polarity. So the tip of one plug must be connected to the tip of the other plug - easy if you've got cable with (say) one red and one black core.

Can't see any Speakon sockets on the back of the amp, difficult to make out the recess in the speakers but I don't think there were Speakons in there either. You could probably manage right-angle jacks at the amp end but the speaker ends would almost certainly have to be straight jacks. It might be easier to have straight jacks at both ends if you're using thick wire. Bell wire or mains cable will do the job.

I meant along the lines of "how good do you think we are?", which I cringed internally at when Mrs Zero asked it of one engineer/producer (I'll stop saying "cum", it evidently evinces a strange reaction in those without the benefit of a grounding in Latin).

No you haven't. I may not know you but I have read your posts. Not taken in by your fake pearl-clutching.

FTFY.
