  1. This.
  2. Tuning should always be done silently, or as silent as possible for acoustic instruments. Not a soul in the world wants or needs to hear the sound of tuning.
  3. What one have I missed that completely redeems the rest then? Above I see Motorhead, Napalm Death, Voivod, and a mention of psychobilly. I have no reservations about including those in my previous exclamation 😬
  4. Good thing my opinion is the only relevant one to me
  5. If it wasn't for Thrash Metal and it's offspring the whole 80s should be killed with fire. What a load of audible diarrhea, absolutely atrocious.
  6. Most elaborate ebay add ever! They really want to sell that bass!
  7. It's only a cheap Vintage mate, what's the fuss?
  8. AFAIK all wireless headphones come with a cord in case the battery runs out. What's the necessity for noise cancelling? Won't normal closed back headphones do? When are you mainly going to be using them?
  9. I always make sure that I am the annoying one. Works great!
  10. That's possible. Although it hasn't happened to me yet with Ernie Ball, GHS, D'addario, Dean Markley, Warwick or DR strings in over 20 years of playing. Also having the outer winding on the peg is could affect things how? What's the science here? Do you have a link for me to read up on this? Inquisitive minds want to know! 😃
  11. Too long? how does that work? I cut all my strings 3 to 4 inch after the peg to have about three windings around the peg when tuned. Always have done with all brands I've tried.
  12. Go try lots! Borrow different ones, spend some hours down the bass shops and take notes of what you are testing and what you notice about that bass. Try different string spacings. Or just get a shiny one that catches your eye 😏
  13. Nobody is taking the urine with pianos, violins, saxophones, etc. Why this? You see less of them, so they don't fit in your peanut world view,so it's ok to bash 'em. It's just bullying isn't it?
  14. I'd say I COULD play a gig on a luthier modified squire, I just wouldn't be HAPPY doing it. Me unhappy on a strange instrument that feels and sounds different than the one I spent years getting just so will make a bad gig.
  15. If said squire was a MB-5 with Dimension humbuckers maybe I could
  16. Treble
  17. Are the pictures at the bottom of the page not clear enough?
  18. Same goes for Amsterdam. If you chose the Netherlands then I'd advise Rotterdam. It is currently a more modern city with a more progressive population, and the cost of living there is much more affordable. Also access to Antwerp, Brussels, the Hague etc is a bit easier from Rotterdam. Good luck!
  19. The input decides how loud you want to be when hitting the threshold and start compression. The output makes up the gain loss from compressing, and is usually set that your overall sound is equally loud with the comp on or off.
  20. It's not religion or alternative medicine, it is a clearly described, measurable mechanism. Personally, I'm with Skoll on this one.
  21. Compress to impress!
  22. Buurman & Buurman, or Pat&Mat as they're called in Czech Republic. They're awesome! (And my boy is at home with the flu)
  23. I can only recommend it
  24. Yeah right. Grown ups don'play music. Everyone knows that!
