After delving down rabbit holes and finding out how to use ffmpeg, I got it synced much better (earlier post edited).

A former originals band would do what was supposed to be 2x45 but was generally more like 2x40, including a couple of covers.

2x45 which tends to be more like 50 and 60. When in a club band, most clubs had two bingo/raffle breaks so it would be something like 45/30/45. We did some gigs at a couple of pubs in Munich where we played 4 30m sets with 30m breaks in between.

Don't change the bridge then.

Another one not quite up there with the original:

Forget what I said there...

I didn't think it was a good cover, but then again opinions will always differ.

Guitar intro wrong, bass line wrong. Vocals OK.

You'd hear bugger-all difference down the Dog and Duck on a Saturday night, so just go for the one that looks and feels nicest.

Set a starting price of £100 if you don't want it to go for less than £100.

I think they divested Paypal some years ago. Ah, here we are: https://www.marketingscoop.com/small-business/does-ebay-own-paypal/ Which is why Paypal is no longer the default payment option - payments are direct through Ebay. Like @PaulWarning, I've waited for 80% off weekends to sell stuff, so it's nice not to have to do that any more. And for a while Ebay owned Gumtree so they've managed to cope with a free listing site in the past. However, this might explain why, when I bought a motorcycle TPMS earlier today, the order completed page that comes up after making the payment had a "You might like to buy this too" advert for a battery charger.

And in that video there's very little difference.

As well as the scowl (see above), we generally have so little room to set up in that no punter would be able to squeeze in anyway.

One of these will charge them up: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/365049487852 (the UV light). As a bonus, you can play with cats with the laser pointer.

My perpetual scowl seems to work.

Which, as I have said before, isn't my experience. But it's pointless me repeating that, because you have your experience and I have mine.

Perhaps a few of the victims could get together and contact Watchdog. See if the police can be shamed into some sort of action.

The next door neighbour starts banging on the wall.

That looks like a very sensible solution. Addresses both the neck dive and (at least to some degree) the tilt issue.

Chop the headstock off and put a headless bridge on. Gets shot of both neck dive and annoying questions about which bridge is best.

Wireless to multieffects/pedalboard, then 3m or 5/6m lead to amp. Only use right-angle jacks if it's a pedal board that I'm keeping the internals as slim as possible. Don't use right-angle jacks into amps or basses (I have some with recessed jacks and a one-lead-fits-all policy).

Michael Jackson wrote a song in praise of him: Love, Never Felt So Good. Alicia Keys wrote a cautionary song about an anonymous shed felter who did a rather poor job for her: Never Felt This Way. While Duke Ellington, experimenting with new techniques, documented one in I Never Felt This Way Before.

It's challenging, but I've nearly got it:

Wouldn't you want it as far forward as possible to alleviate neck dive, in which case directly between the two headstockmost bolts would make sense? There is a second issue - with the strap peg on the back of the bass rather than where Orville put it on the upper unhorn, it will tilt forward. I don't know how much, it's something I've encountered on the Hohner B2 which is a rather different body shape.
