@Happy Jack just think of all those Beatle choons you could have learned!

Just make sure you don't have the receipt for it in your luggage. And steer clear of brazilian rosewood fingerboards.

Thanks Paddy, I'll let you know. I was hoping to find someone full time though.

If you want to sound like an upright - get an upright.

Yes. It's a relatively small number of forums. I prefer not to have default home screen that shows loads of popular threads in forums I don't read, unless as BRX says there's an option to revert to the traditional view.

Or use google instead of the built-in search engine: Fender Jazz site:https://www.basschat.co.uk/forum/16-bass-guitars/ typed into the search box will do it.

No white X on my browser interface either. And a second banner, about the FAQ, which seems tied to this section.

Finally, a reason to own one!

You got me there. I can afford to move house, but performance video ? Not a hope. I guess I could send you performance video of someone else, you'ld never find out until I showed up for the audition 🙂

There was a discussion about this in the Glastonbury thread. Unsurprisingly I can't remember what the conclusion was, if there was one.

An acoustic bass guitar, or a 6-string acoustic guitar?

Sorry I can't be there, Remembrance Sunday so I have a prior engagement. Hope you all have a great day.

Since you bought this from G4M, have you tried taking it up with them? After all they are the ones who have a contract with DX, not you.

Damn @Beedster you would have been the perfect person! Here's a clip from a recent acoustic showcase set we did at Coda in Colchester, recorded on someone's phone so the sound isn't great.

Yes, we're still looking. I'm on holiday for the next couple of weeks so I won't be on basschat much but you can reach me through email to [email protected] And we're playing at Folk East on Sunday 20th, in the main bar during the afternoon. If anyone is there please come up and say hello.

10 years ago I gave away my 100-year-old boudoir grand. It went to a guy who runs a local recording studio.

I bought a PSU from Dean - great transaction. I'm happy to recommend him.

As far as I'm concerned, this qualifies under 'wonderful'. Price might be a tad optimistic though. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/334960680527?hash=item4dfd365e4f:g:9wcAAOSwf8ZketvW

It's just occurred to me that I used to use a volume pedal with my bouzouki. The pedal I used has a control which allows you to set a minimum volume. I'd set it to max for single string stuff and then back it off for multiple string strumming. I've still got the pedal if you want to give it a go.

Anyone come across Fionn O'Hanlon before? I hadn't until this popped up in my Youtube suggestions box. Every now and again, someone comes along and just raises the bar to an entirely new level.

Ideal for Norwich City fans. So I guess they're not going to sell very many.

Why oh why did I sell it.

I hate these things with a passion, and would advise against using them unless as a last resort. The chances that they will break are very high, and then you have a serious problem on your hands because you have a hardened carbon steel extractor in the centre of the bolt, which no drill can touch. When it happened to me I was lucky enough to find a local engineering works with a spark erosion machine (think this was a VW bus cylinder head exhaust stud, but it was a long time ago). Once the neck is off, if there is enough of the broken screw sticking out a Stud Extractor might do the job - something like this: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Remover-Extractor-Puller-Mechanic-Vehicle/dp/B07B3S1CJN/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?adgrpid=60146397584&hvadid=259084582987&hvdev=c&hvlocphy=9180720&hvnetw=g&hvqmt=e&hvrand=16234816946913686502&hvtargid=kwd-298754072628&hydadcr=28149_1724799&keywords=stud+extractor&qid=1689932951&sr=8-1-spons&sp_csd=d2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9hdGY&psc=1
