The entire Street Survivors album is fantastic. You probably want to listen to the Hotel California album too by the Eagles

Agree it's odd, I wouldn't have expected them to continue down this route when they have a high tech option, but I also expect they've done their research and these things will sell. Know what you mean about the presents but on my old GT10-B which was a phenomenal bit of kit the presets were actually usable bass tones on the most part and very well thought out, instead of wacky nonsense just because they could. If it has the functionality and some of the presets of the old GT10-B but physical knobs it will be awesome.

I'd make it the drummer's problem... Sounds like something metal needs to be hit with something else. Or, if your drummer has a sample pad or any kind of electronic drum kit it's easy enough to do.

I agree there's "better" tech out there but this probably sits in the middle: great sound quality but physical controls so you don't have to be programming for hours on end. I can see the appeal of both.

I've never needed to use them for repairs but this is why I bought new Ashdown amps: if anything goes wrong I can phone them and get it sorted.

Earth, wind and fire. I'll get my coat.

Lovely looking bass! Now rip the sleeves off your denim jacket and get shredding

I had the lefty version, very, very nice bass. I'd say that's a decent price too, everywhere else seems to want a lot closer to £1000 for MIJ basses these days. Mine had a solid neck but not too thick and chunky, decent hardware, great clarity of sound. I'd snap that up if I were right handed with £825 to spend on a p bass.

That's it!!!! It was a few months ago and I never had chance to look it up. Just listening to it right now. Guess I wasn't concentrating enough to understand the message but listening now... Yeah, I misread that one!

Agreed. When I need to use my wife's car I suffer Radio 1, I am forty so it's not aimed at me but the sheer vacuousness of the presenting, the music, and even how they have to explain the news... It's quite sad really. One Sunday morning they were playing Wet Leg and then a song came on, some singer songwriter type thing where this lad sings about breaking up with a girl he met in church and how that made him question his faith and it really hit me. Not because of the message itself but because it was on Radio 1 at hangover time and I thought it was incredibly profound for that station at that time of day.

Probably a smart move though. Some won't want the features but do still want lightweight and "five hundred watts" (please, nobody touch that can of worms). Looks like they've now covered what they wanted to make and what a wider range of people will want to buy. Interesting that the matching 1x12 cab takes 500w so it is a proper portable rig without needing a second cab to get the full Welly... From what I understood.

In my office, where all my music gear is kept, I have a Positive Grid Spark for practice. It's a great piece of kit but doesn't really have any heft at all so I've got an SWR Working Pro 10 which is a fantastic little wedge combo amp and is adequate for gigs where there's decent PA with subs.

This literally was in my (spare) bedroom.

Phwoooooooaaaaaaaaarr

@Happy Jack gave me good advice on this type of thing before and has some nifty videos of himself doing what you describe...

I'm pretty sure there's one of these on eBay right now. Caught it out the corner of my eye before I could filter to left handed.

In seriousness I always thought the Antigua finish had a green hue to it, not this weird khaki brown. I like the original Antigua, but if I had one of these I'd get a custom pickguard made that features chunks of carrot, urinal cakes and cigarette butts.

Try immodium. Take two at the onset of illness and one after each loose movement.

I am pretty sure there was a Steinberger Spirit twin neck headless in the early 2000's. Definitely a guitar but I think a bass too....

I also have a big brother. I have two older brothers but only one of them is bigger than me.

I don't have one... Yet. 1984 for me so it's Fender P bass special (would LOVE one), Aria SB series, Ibanez Musician, MM Stingray... Probably a handful more. Any good quality examples of these will be pricey, any that are affordable are likely knackered. I'm not going to go hunting for one.

While I like the finish... It does make me think of a very badly stained pub toilet.

If it's a Rootmaster then you can bypass a lot of the EQ etc and get it sounding fairly neutral, run your MLD pedal into the input and you get the sound of that pedal.

I really really like that look! Subtle, not gaudy, but that white body in that shape will definitely stand out!
