  1. Nice! Didn't think it'd last long when I saw BD advertise it on FB!!
  2. Aargh! Celestion compression driver out of stock everywhere! Bugrit...
  3. Further to my previous FRFR question... Is there any reason one couldn't adjust the cabinet shape kick-back monitor style? Assuming the internal volume remains the same I would imagine the only downside would be with construction difficulty?
  4. Not a problem - the lockdown project will be perfect!
  5. Brilliant... Does the advanced version you mention also use the Pulse 10 driver?
  6. So given the freq response a few pages back, could this (with a little eq around the upper midrange dip) be something approaching frfr... Asking for a friend...
  7. The album Witness by VOLA... Djenty European prog. Nice!
  8. 421 quid as discussed here:
  9. I bought an ipad for general use (£300 at the time), added a cheap focusrite interface (25 quid) and used headphones I've had for years. And had latency for free!
  10. Actually it gets worse... GAK have them to pre-order at 421 quid...
  11. Based on core functionality (headphone practice with bluetooth control/playback, effects, amp modelling, metronome, etc) they are the same product. If somebody wants all the unrealistic BS to go along with that, let them waste their money....
  12. "Nice idea. I wonder how much..." 🤢 *BAULK* A BIT pricey?! £329 quid for the guitar version currently... Get one of these... https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B084JB519R/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 or from one of our own... ...and wired headphones (of YOUR choice)... Admittedly it's missing a few effects I would call vital for bass in such a unit (compression...) but otherwise it'd do the same job...
  13. Have quite a collection of Neural plugins myself!
  14. Got one of these a few months ago. Handy little thing for noodling in the garden!
  15. Magnificent instruments! A total bargain...
  16. 😭 wrong side of the Irish sea again!!! Bargain...
  17. Are they longer truss rod nuts? Can't see how you get that in behind a truss rod adjustment nut!
  18. I think you may be reading what you want to read there boss... I didn't see any reviews of that cab for bass when I looked at it a few months back. The one that does now said the speaker didn't work for them. Yes... Well I'd take that with a HUGE pinch of salt at that price if I were you... But don't take our word for it! Get a couple bought and come back and tell everybody how they fair at WAR volume!
  19. Had it continuously for last 6 years. Had it intermittently for a few years before that - the transition occurred due to a rather nasty head cold. Blew my nose too hard, heard a loud crack, shooting pain under my left eye. Lo and behold the ringing has been there ever since. Chronic rhinitis and sinusitis was the NHS (and private) diagnosis, but both consultants were less than useless when asked about the tinnitus - "oh, don't listen to that"... easier said than done! I've found low background noise helps greatly if it's getting on your nerves, ASMR type stuff, or just listen to music. Worst thing you can do is have a constant drone of any kind - that highlights it. The road noise in my mk5 GTI Golf sends it BANANAS! My mum has hearing aids specifically because of here tinnitus and she has said it pretty much disappeared - as long as she's wearing the aids. I'm 44 and don't really fancy hearing aids, but it's heading that way... @Woodwind interesting you say that diet helps. I'll have to look into that more. My diet has been pretty terrible during lockdown which might explain why the tinnitus has been so bad! Anti inflammatory veg doesn't sound like a bad idea since her-indoors has been having more trouble with her arthritis this year too...
  20. This sort of ad makes me want to weep... Too far away...
  21. There have been other Ian Hill models in the past - I mean different from the current P only version. The one you mention is listed with a slimmer nut width in the listing than a Euro 4LX, although Bassdirect listings are all best taken with a pinch of salt. Never seen more mistakes than the short ads they put on Facebook!
  22. There's a chap on the Spector nation Facebook page getting rid of a load of Spector's for the widow of a bass playing neighbour - i think they are the same basses. Some seriously nice basses there...
