    I bought an Akai Midi Pad from Alan. Super easy and friendly transaction. Posted quickly, and arrived exactly as planned. Pleasure, thanks 👍 Alex

    Yeah I regularly curse myself for missing that one. Just didn’t have the cash at the time.

    I’m looking to essentially ‘pinstripe’ my bass as I really like the look of binding on guitars, and In a bit of homage to Jared Followill old pinstriped T’Birds… Can anyone with experience in panting basses recommend a paint type for this and a brush over gloss. My main worry is it would just rub off where my arm falls. I’ve done a ChatGPT mock up to demonstrate what I’m looking for. But it would just be a single line around the edge of the body/headstock/pickup surround/ pick guard and I wouldn’t be actually binding the neck😅 Thanks Alex

    Yeah me too. I think the idea of importing, and them very rarely becoming available 2nd hand has been a big factor in me not getting one. The idea of importing seems daunting and has put me off on the times I’ve come close.

    D’oh, i had managed to forget how much I wanted a Junior Jazz and now he’s reminded me how good they are 😅 I do like this chaps videos! He seems to really break down every element in his reviews 👍

    Congrats looks very nice indeed! I absolutely love my GB fusion 5 but absolutely love the wood on these! The Pickguard is off mine but I’m yet to fit any capheads and it looks great without! Enjoy!

    Best - It was very close between my Cort Fusion 5 and my Zoom B6. But I’d say the Zoom takes it because it’s already earned its cost back tenfold, and it’s got me out of a few terrible sounding rooms already. Honourable mention also goes to the 2 1x15 homemade Eminence powered bass cabs I got from my local shop for the disgusting price of £40. They’re fantastic. Worst - Snugs custom moulded IEM sleeves.. I unfortunately dropped my £1k 64 Audio CIEMS and shattered the shell, in the middle of wedding season. So, I anticipated a long repair time having to be shipped out etc. I bought the snugs to go on to a second hand set of Shure 535s I picked up off eBay to get me through until I got the good ones back. Well, they do the job of isolation, but other than that they’re rubbish. Big, bulky, uncomfortable, and I’m fairly certain that at times made the wires on my headphones cause cutouts. And they cut my ears to bits for the first week or so. Still, I’ve got the 64s back now which are amazing!

    For what it’s worth, there’s a very nice Sadowsky on BassBros website at the moment 👍

    No idea, I’m merely a sheep. But, I believe it’s come across from forums such as Reddit that aren’t so bass specific. I’ve read plenty of random threads where people have asked this about a pickup combination or amp etc… The Basschat equivalent surely would be ‘what’s the weight?’ Anyway, back to the thread at hand… very cool! Naive as I am, I think after googling it, it’s some of the first pictures I’ve ever seen of bootsy not actually looking like ‘Bootsy’

    Will this work for metal?
  13. AlexDelores
    That is rather lovely! You’ve got a very, very nice collection of Jazzes now haven’t you?
  14. AlexDelores
    I have one of these and they’re fantastic little amps! This is a steal at £100. GLWTS.

    I have to admit that up until about 2 years ago, I don’t think I’d seen a roasted neck. Yet, they seem to be going on everything now. Is there a benefit to the process or is it just the in thing. Genuine question this, I’m not against them, I think they look great. Just curious as to whether there’s more to it than aesthetics. Alex

    Not sure whether it’s the issue. But, it could be cut fractionally too low on the nut. ,I had a similar issue on the E string of a 4 string short scale. It really stumped my tech as it all technically looked to be correct. The issue was rectified by using a paste and bringing the string up at the nut a very tiny amount. On the face of it, it was all technically within his usual tolerances. But, after trying a few things, he raised this and it completely removed the problem.
