Bob Vylan is the only one on the list that I would actively pay to see perform, although I wouldn't be mad if St. Vincent played there too.

Because scarcity drives up the prices you should pick a 32" scale six string.

I think at least 75% of all basses are four string, probably 80% of those 34 inch.

Maybe the Black Metal theme was the wrong choice for a school show-and-tell

Didn't know Don Johnson played bass in the 80s.

But two. And one with flats. And its backup.

One? You need a backup for when you break a string as well!!

Autocorrect will adjust it to squire as you click post, from a mobile phone. 100% certain I spelled it correctly but there's no beating the stupidity of automation.

By all accounts Sire Marcus Miller are much less of a gamble quality wise than squire.

Play the last bar, then play the last two bars a few times, then play the last three bars slowly a few times before picking up speed, then play the whole thing once slowly. Repeat untill satisfied and up to speed. Reverse engineering sometimes helps me.

Thanks for the updates!

Or maybe try some upscaling software? I've never used any so don't know the capabilities exactly.

Maybe it if you tell us specifically what you need and why then someone might be motivated to oblige? Keeping it vague isn't doing much apparently.

If everyone is having fun and the shows are good and the crowd is happy, great. Some bands are all about hosting a party, if it works it works.

Weird take. What are the festival line-ups the past few years? More bands than solo artists and the soloists nearly all brought a band. How many bands name themselves after the bandleader? Solo artist in name but factually a steady group. The perspective is skewed from only looking at "charts". And the charts are a worthless source for information as they are just an advertising platform.

Jason Momoa. There's a YouTube vid of him visiting with Les Claypool

Loxx, best I've tried over the past 30 years. https://www.thomann.co.uk/loxx_security_lock_ni.htm?__cTr=d2aa6e64-0b5b-414f-b3a0-014a1c2e326e&shp=eyJjb3VudHJ5IjoiZ2IiLCJjdXJyZW5jeSI6NCwibGFuZ3VhZ2UiOjJ9&reload=1

I think someone mixed up "the cats pajamas" and "the dogs bollocks"

My guitarist built it for me http://cellarguitars.com/index.php/cellar-v/

Treating my bass to fresh strings and doing a setup. My assistant isn't helping much.

"the charts" are a vehicle for the labels to push their products. It's NOTHING to do with good music.

Something like those alpines is fine, though custom is better in sound quality, reliability, fit and damping. Most on here use ACS custom molds, which can be fitted at Booths. There's a bass chat discount I believe, and a musicians union discount? Others will supply the details shortly I trust.

A fun preamp is an absolute must to get any kind of flavour out of it though.

I have the Harley Benton as backup amp. No experience with the bugera. It's clean, pretty small and light. Class D 800w power section as used in so many others, so no fuss just good. Whatever pre you use wil come out louder and loud enough.
