Fantastic new track from The Don, from his upcoming bass-centric instrumental album Il Basso. The video is beautifully ridiculous as always. 😅

Just to play devil’s advocate, I read all this about replacement when I got my IEMs, which is now just over 4 years ago, can’t say mine feel any different today than they did when I got them, still fit perfectly.

Yeah absolutely, I worked in instrument retail for 10 years and prior to the current range Fender’s mainstream bass amps were not that well regarded. The V3 Rumbles changed that, not because they are absolutely incredible, but they hit a good sweet spot of looks, performance, weight and price.

Agreed that the Rumble range’s good reputation is based on the current versions, the older ones are not generally as well thought of. A 100 (or even the 40) is more than enough for home use.

Yeah, I don’t dislike IMA, I do feel like his enthusiasm is genuine and he does bring good stuff to the table. I just find that when he’s paired with another enthusiastic American it tips it over the edge for me. 😅

Their horrendous levels of enthusiasm almost make me not want one. I do still want one though.

Wow, that’s just amazing, absolutely awesome work.

Looks amazing Paddy! How on earth is it possible to repair that missing fingerboard chunk like that?! Magic?

Without wishing to state the bleeding obvious, if they are nice people why not just have a chat with them about it?

Thanks man, much appreciated. I rather foolishly sold that bass, which I very much regret!

Yeah I think it has, I just linked to the wrong one, the X is the current one.

Just realised the one I linked isn’t the one I’ve got, I’ve got this one - https://www.roland.com/us/products/gomixer_pro-x/

When I messed around with this during Covid I initially did the above, recording the audio and video through different means and then having to stitch together, was a right faff, but then I discovered this handy device - https://www.roland.com/global/products/gomixer/ - basically just plug it into your phone and plug your bass into it and you’re good to go. Sounds like this - https://www.instagram.com/p/CRrLGJrCewa/?igsh=MWU4MTBxcXYwM21jaA==

There’s two different models so you’re both right/wrong! 😅

It did but was then reopened - https://www.retaildetail.eu/news/leisure/bax-music-reopens-stores-and-webshop/
