The firmware update procedure is something the Fender Mustang GTX amps do really well and the boss engineers could learn from. I updated my GTX100 when I first got it and yesterday I took delivery of a secondhand GTX50 for my son. It took me no time at all to get the GTX50 updated to the lastest firmware. It was effortless and a no time was I anxious of bricking it. The other thing they could learn from looking at the Fender is that the IOS app to control the Fender is a joy to use whereas the Boss one is so frustrating to use that I always use the same settings. Despite this it the Waza is still the best practice setup I've ever used.

Looking at Andertons current sale items, they have their exclusive Lake Placid Blue and Danish Pete Purple Classic Vibe Bass VI at the same price I got mine at again - £399 - ie £80 off. Bargain!

Not something I'd be interested in, but there's a reserve on it so it won't go for peanuts.

My son has been teaching himself to play guitar and has my ancient Vox VT15 so he prefers to play through my Fender mustang GTX100 which sounds infinitely better. I've been thinking of getting him the smaller version, the GTX50 so he can get the same sounds in his room. I was browsing Andertons secondhand section on their website yesterday and saw a GTX50 at a price that was too good to click past. When I got to the checkout I realised I could get an additional £12 off by using the loyalty points earned when I bought my Squier CV LPB Bass VI. Result! I can't wait to see his little face when I surprise him with it (he's 21 btw)

A lot of modern pop music sounds like AI to me due to the overuse and/or reliance on autotune. Its all very well AI being able to approximate R&B (rapping & bullshỉt) artists like Drake or Areola Grande, but I doubt it will be able to do a convincing song in the style of Led Zeppelin yet. Maybe AI will be able to 'unautotune' the vocals on the songs it makes, so we could potentially end up in the position where AI generated R&B (rapping & bullshỉt) songs will sound more human than a human in that style.

These days I tend to I take two of my lovely mustangs to gigs. I have a choice of five. Last time it was The Daphne Blue JMJ as the main bass with the Capri Orange Classic Vibe as backup. On Saturday the Black JMJ will get an outing, and I'll probably bring the Orange Squier again as the spare, possibly getting it out for the soundcheck. The most basses I've taken to a gig was three when a previous band played a gig at London Zoo - Then I had an Active Jazz, a passive thunderbird and an electric upright. All three were played and the two guitarists brought (and played) seven guitars between them.
