    If I were local I'd be all over this, great venue to see anyone. As a non-Londoner it's the logistics of it that's the bigger issue than the ticket price - once I've factored in taking an afternoon off work, getting up there, a few beers and food, the cost of the ticket isn't the issue, it's everything else that comes with it that makes it expensive and a real hassle. Still tempted though...

    I quite like the tune, it's not a banger but it's got a cool groove - I'd happy add it to my "Chill Background Music" playlist... It does sound incredibly generic though - to my ears the only stand out feature is the interesting guitar sound on the solo. I doubt this would get noticed if it didn't have Harry Styles' name on it.

    I'd tend to agree with this. You can view the seller's asking price as the opening bid if you like and you're welcome to make offers via PM. I can only see "auction" style listings getting messy on here.

    21st June 2014, the last time we let our guitarist choose the set...

    Controversial, but I think Este Haim looks absolutely ridiculous when she pulls those faces. I saw her play live years ago before I knew who she was and thought she was taking the fosters before I realised it was just her thing.

    EDIT - posted in the wrong thread!

    Ah crap, yeah looks like it's the cable then. I'll send that back to Amazon and get one of those Roland ones. Cheers.

    Hi all, need a bit of help... I've been trying to update my FI to v3.0 having never updated it before. I've bought this cable but I can't seem to get the FI to connect to the editor: https://www.amazon.co.uk/USB-MIDI-Cable-DigitalLife-Out/dp/B07TNFDH5L/ Is it me or the cable? Cheers in advance!

    I have this discussion with the singer in our band a lot, this is absolutely my take on it; good lyrics enhance a good tune but can't polish a turd. I don't know if it's because I listen to a lot of instrumental music but a good melody is way more important to me than a good lyric.

    No Rickenbackers!

    Because it'll cost him 1100 quid 🤣 Beautiful amp, good luck with the sale.

    Great watch, thanks for sharing.

    Maybe so, but what I've never understood about this is why would promoters and venues let it happen? Their agenda should be to put on the best show for the audience. As a headline band you'd have to have very little self belief and a massive ego to stipulate static lights and poor sound for any of the support bands. I've been lucky enough to play some reputable venues with excellent house engineers so never actually experienced this myself, but I see it as a punter occasionally.

    Sorry for the late reply! 3.9kg according to my bathroom scales. I thought it was slightly lighter than this to be honest, certainly feels it with the comfort strap!

    Looks like a '54 Precision reissue. What's going on with that G string though?
  17. Dubs
    Hi Pete, just to confirm, is this the Gen3 spec? I'm also guessing this doesn't come with a cover?

    We seem to like moaning about our sh!tty bandmates, but are you secretly the sh!tty bandmate?! 😮

    What's the neck profile on this and width at the nut?

    I like playing with dead strings I put new strings on in Jan, they just played gig 31 last night...

    Had a request for pics of the hardware and frets so have also attached these to the top of this thread.

    Had a lot of interest and some very tempting trade offers, but this is still available for the moment... With regards to trade options, it's really only going to be a high end PJ with a jazz neck that I'm interested in. Happy to trade with cash adjustment your way if necessary.

    I've owned this since 2008 but am pretty much only playing passive J or P type basses these days. EMG pickups, 18v Aguilar OBP-2 preamp, factory-installed strap-locks (I'll include a comfort strap with the sale, as pictured below). Serial number shows this was made in 2000. The bass is in decent overall condition for a 19yr old instrument, the hardware shows some signs of wear and the top of the P pickup has a very shallow groove worn into the wood. Included in the sale is a Gator hardcase which is in a like-new condition, albeit about 10 years old. The bass is available to play in Portsmouth/Southsea - drop in for a cuppa and give her a noodle! I gig regularly across the South East so may be able to meet up or deliver within reason. £900 cash, would also consider trades for a passive PJ with a Jazz profile neck. Feel free to ask any questions or ask for more pics, I'll do my best to get back to you ASAP!

    I met up with Mick to sell him a bass. He's super easy to trade with and a top bloke! Cheers mate, enjoy the bass!

    Big respect for doing it and stepping outside of your comfort zone. If nothing else, it's £150 and an invaluable learning experience. I've been asked to dep by the agency my band goes through and I've always said no; I've partly not got the desire to want to do it enough but mostly I don't have the minerals or self belief to put myself in that situation, so respect to you for doing it.
