    We've had some hints on site. There is a poster with talk of a "piano man" (Billy Joel?) And about Elton saying "Hello and Goodbye" (McCartney?).

    Yeah, they're so good live. I worked out I must have first seen the Foos at Reading 2002 when I was 17!

    Nate's does sound the best to my ears so far.

    Side note: so bloody many p basses. A Jack Cassidy was a nice change of pace.

    Currently waiting for "The Churnups". Hope it is Foo Fighters, but a cameo from JPJ and Josh Homme would be good!

    One right in front of me doesn't have the top sheet secured properly. Looks a bit like it might just fly away!

    I'm in and the tent is set up!

    Reminds me of what we said about the closest villages/all of Swindon when I was growing up!

    My wife grew up there, I know of its oddities 🤣

    I'm looking forward to it. I'm getting a taxi at 4:20 tomorrow morning to head to my mates house in Midsomer Norton, so we can leave there by 5, and then I can set the tent up and my wife is coming on Thursday after handing childcare over to the grandparents! Baby free weekend! Not got a lot starred in the app so far. Need to have a proper browse with my breakfast apple juice (cider) after getting set up. Any other basschatters attending?

    I know you didn't ask me, but I ordered a set (WS-90) through Ali Express. Took a bit longer to arrive, but it was almost half price of any UK source. Really pleased with them. They have a bit of a longer battery life than the WS-50 too. https://a.aliexpress.com/_EJzjNsV

    I think the only thing someone could possibly do would be to set up a direct debit in your name. It happened to Jeremy Clarkson after he printed his bank details in The Times saying it was totally safe! https://www.theguardian.com/money/2008/jan/07/personalfinancenews.scamsandfraud Hopefully things have moved on a bit since 2008, but I wouldn't bet on it! Not saying the average person would do this and it should be fine for most transactions, this is an edge case!

    It's so much nicer with the hard edges taken off. Good work!
  14. MichaelDean
    Best bet is to take one off and measure the hole, but I'd imagine they're 14mm.
  15. MichaelDean
    Oh God. That sounds just like I want it to. I don't need it. I don't need it. I don't need it. I don't need it....

    What strings have you got that sound alright for drop C#? I'd like to try my Mustang in my doom band and we're in drop C, but the D'Addario 45-105 set I've got on at the moment don't quite sound good enough for me. Might be because I'm too used to the definition from my Dingwall though 😅

    I played in a band where the guitarist would loop stuff live. The click track took a bit of time to get used to at first but it was really useful. I now miss the whole IEM experience. If I could convince everyone in my current band to use in ears I would be sooooo happy. I hate ear plugs, which I do wear, but I feel it takes too much bass out. I'd love to go back to my own personal mix...

    Shouldn't be too hard with an adaptor or two depending on your tablet. Have a read of this: https://www.airdroid.com/screen-mirror/how-to-connect-tablet-to-tv-using-usb-cable/ You can try it out on your TV. If it works on that, it'll be fine at the gig.

    Could you print the edges of the modules into a tongue and groove sort of a shape, with little internal tabs you could put a bolt through? You can put a dab of glue in the grooves and tighten it up with some tiny M2 bolts. Then to make it really modular, the end pieces have the corresponding tongue/groove and a hole for a bolt to sit on the outside. Might be too complicated though! I tried doing some 3d modelling once. I did not have a good time...

    That's a great result on all accounts! Glad the new basses are working out for you!
  21. MichaelDean
    What you get up to in your garage is up to you, but I'm assuming that's why the rest of the band didn't want to go back!

    Just had an email from Andertons, they're available for pre-order now. https://www.andertons.co.uk/brands/squier/paranormal-series/squier-paranormal-rascal-bass-hh-sherwood-green https://www.andertons.co.uk/brands/squier/paranormal-series/squier-paranormal-rascal-bass-hh-metallic-black @Baloney Balderdash they're 9.5" radius.

    I sometimes think about calling my Mustang "Sally" and then I decide that's a silly idea...

    Don't suppose it was a silver Korg Toneworks pedal? One of our guitarists uses a multi when his back is playing up (otherwise he has a pedalboard that is heavier than some amps, but that's for another thread!). He recently replaced it with a Valeton GP200 (the red one is cheaper at £265 on Amazon at the moment). It was a real step up in sound quality. You could probably find one second hand in budget and pass it on for the same if it doesn't suit you.

    When I got a flight case made up for my Mustang, I traced it onto some wallpaper liner and posted it to them.
