You definitely didn’t sign up to transferwives by accident?

He’s right behind you, just ask! 😂

Welcome, I'm also in Yorkshire, lovely part of the world

I have the Blackstar 2x10 combo. It's very loud and has some really good pre amp emulator settings. I've only used it in a studio so can't comment on much more than the solid build, light-ish weight and good looks (rather like myself! ha) Happy to answer any Qs about it

It's probably the only time she'd be happy about my GAS

I’d happy swap my child for a Shuker or Wal. Or even just a new battery for my preamp.

I’ve changed it for you

The bit about him having to caulk the pick guard because he sweats so much is enough to put me off, on top of the music of course.

I used to love watching Morse and pointing out all the places I’ve been sick around Oxford

😂 no problem at all, let me know if you need help with anything welcome to the site!

Same here! Many of the basses I have had simply don’t go low enough or have necks straight enough. It’s really disappointing when you like everything else bout a bass but just can’t get the feel you want. Adverts often say ‘super low action’ but the G string is about a CM off the board!

Yeah, I’ve had that for about 15 years now and it’s seen off everything especially with the synth built in so it can do perfect (to my ears) impressions of J, P, MM styles too. But I like that it has a unique sound of its own, it’s one of a kind and sounds so even and plays so well it’s almost digital! I used to think I’d also need a 5, a fretless and so forth but in reality when I was playing something else, especially something easily recognisable like a Jazz, I kind of felt like I was copying a sound rather than playing MY sound on things if you see what I mean. There’s an album by Gov’t Mule where each track has a different bass player and it’s really good to see how an instantly recognisable ‘signature’ sound can be used in different contexts and still sound great. Flea plays on a fusion blues kind of tune with his Modulus and it sounds amazing, whereas my first thought might be ‘oh I need a P for that tune’ I guess when you’ve had a bass long enough and used it live, at home, in studios and all sorts you just get to know it so well that you just feel at home on it and know how it’ll sound in every situation.

Something graphite might be a good way to go

Motorbikes - there’s an idea!

I was going to say but didn't mention how I'm becoming the same with watches. I think I have 'my' watch now, after years of buying and selling. I was also like that with cameras, and also have found 'mine' - so I'm looking for new areas to waste money on!
