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!

I'm interested in this too... I don't have a Tele bass, sadly, but for purely cosmetic reasons I'd love to stick one or two of these pickups into my P bass. Would be great if they sounded half decent too!

Love this!! Whether originals or covers I always thought it good practice if we can't do a gig to refer another band we know. That way you help out the venue, whether they've booked you and you had to cancel or whether they offer you dates you can't do, and helped out another band. What goes around comes around so if we all take this approach we should eventually receive what we give.

I pad for watching Netflix while doing root fifth stuff/ playing the same set you've bashed out every week for years.
