  1. Ken doesn’t make them himself anyway so whether they’re ’in house’ or ‘in someone else’s house’ is kind of immaterial. It’s more likely that Brubaker found him hard to work with and now Ken is making it sound like they were the problem and trying to sell the new ‘in house’ basses. Over the years various parts of the production have been outsourced anyway.
  2. Welcome! We’re going to need some pictures! I’m assuming the bass is fretted (I think I’ve seen it in the book) in which case it is indeed phelonic. You can clean it with WD40!
  3. Sounds cool. With both pickups on, it has the Ken Smith upper midrange ‘plink’ - I thought it might from the position
  4. I prefer rounds on mine (Elixir 45-105 steel). They last about a year with light gigging (we probably do about 12 gigs a year). I put some new ones on this morning and for the first time ever, my tuners are all lined up. It’ll probably change as they settle in but I thought it was pic worthy 🤘
  5. I wonder if any of this will be useful in my parole hearing
  6. Also up for a Yorkshire bash!
  7. Bass-backbeat-pedalboard-VB99(usb interface)-Mac-GK200-Bassboard with Beyer DT770s from the VB99. This way I get haptic feedback from the backbeat and, if I want it, the bassboard which gives a really ‘live’ feel, and of course perfect sound from the cans. I play this way 90% of the time; I never use an amp at home.
  8. Well I’m glad you guys are getting to the bottom of the VPN issue whilst I’m googling how to survive in prison
  9. I must say, I prefer short scale basses that have their own shape, as opposed to a scaled down body from another bass. That way they feel like an instrument in their own right instead of a mini version of something else.
  10. What are you in prison for?
  11. It'll probably end up being like the cookie policy where we were told unless you had a banner about cookies you'd be thrown in jail
  12. Looks like the warning was sent before the system here was upgraded - I don’t think the previous warning ‘reasons’ were transferred over.
  13. This is why I tend to like pedals with a battery option. Often I just want to take one pedal, or add a different pedal before my pedalboard now and again - batteries make this really easy and most will last a very long time. If you get a 9V battery tester you can see how many hours remain so it's fairly safe, and spares are easy to carry.
  14. Hi everyone, I just wanted to say a huge thank you to all of you who have supported the site this year—whether by becoming a Supporting Member or purchasing tokens for the marketplace. Your contributions enable us to keep improving the site, reduce our reliance on advertising, and dedicate time to supporting our community. I mention this now because December typically sees a noticeable drop in revenue, and with the challenges many individuals and businesses are facing right now, I’m especially grateful to those of you who continue to renew your subscriptions. Of course, I also deeply appreciate everyone who visits the site, shares their knowledge, and offers support to others. A site like BC is only as valuable as the knowledge contained within the membership. So, thank you once again. I’ll be taking a bit of a BC break over Christmas and New Year, so I want to wish you all a relaxing, joyful time with your friends, family, and instruments 🎸. Cheers, Ped
  15. This. @Bass4real I’m glad you’ve got that off your chest but you might like to consider that we have rules too.
  16. Their loss is our gain, I’m sure…
  17. Obvs I came in late because I couldn’t figure out/be bothered to figure out how to do a count in
  18. I didnt do a video this time but here’s a cool intro track by Jeff Cascaro gettin' started - 13:12:2024, 13.41.mp3
  19. I’d prefer to sell both together otherwise I won’t be making any space saving in my office You’ll end up wanting the extension anyway, it works so well as a system, the stereo chorus is brilliant when using both cabs (or, more accurately, amps)
  20. Hi mate I’ve changed the address to collection only for now - let me know if you’re near York any time. I’ve had it ages and actually forgot I had it up for sale. Cheers 👋🏼
  21. 😉Dude 😂
  22. Nice one 👍🏼
  23. Hi there, it is - but I'm not so sure I'll be able to post it at the moment. Are you anywhere near York to meet instead?
