Photographers have had the same problem for a long time - normally offered the 'opportunity' to photograph some idiot's wedding for 'Instagram exposure' - usually by people who say things like 'wow that camera takes great pictures'

The internet has been failing nice guys like Gerald since 1983

Sorry! If it’s any help I’ve found most sellers on that site are non communicative or do not ship to the UK 👍🏼

Yeah the output is pretty crazy isn’t it! It’s my loudest bass, I think.

I missed this reply - shame I couldn’t make that bash but you’ve got me looking at those!

This bass just inspires me to pick it up and play. Since getting it I’ve played it almost every day ‘for ten minutes’ - next thing I know my wife is tapping me on the shoulder saying she’s going to bed! It sounds sooooo good. I haven’t even missed my Ken Smith much yet - I’m still planning on replacing that with a four string but this bass is just so much fun I’m wondering what’s the rush? Leo might have got it all wrong with Fender but he nailed it at last 😂

Thanks for the flight number, now I know which luggage carousel to wait by

Glad you went for it!! I've cost you a fair bit of money this month haven't I!!

I only ever use 40-100 or 40-095. Or as near to that as possible. For the same reason @Davo-London says and also becuase I like to play very lightly and occasionally dig in for some clank. my slap tecnique also uses very little physical effort when using light strings. I usually have my 4 string basses in drop D and have no problems tuning down even a 0.095 string with a super low action, too.

Could have been @Sibob ?

My setup is American, French, Japanese, Swiss, Danish and German. And probably largely Chinese!

If you like the way they play and sound, Elixirs do! I honestly felt like they were a miracle when I first discovered them. I've got one set here that are over two years old!!

They must have set aside a special 'ped batch' - maybe I've been rude to them at some point 😂

They’re in a sealed bag yeah. So should be fresh!

It wasn’t, it was excellent! Actually we do have the ability to have blogs as a section on the site, how about we use your blog as a test to see how (and if) it all works? Do you have it all? If not I may be able to locate some episodes.

OK so they say I'm just unlucky because they haven't had any reports of this before. They're sending me another set but they're going to open them up and check them over first before sending. Please cross your fingers.

Meanwhile I’d better book a tetanus shot

Sterling’s dropped the ball big time here. Interested to hear what they have to say..
