Thanks, yes, I emailed them and had a reply from him quite quickly. I just filled out the form on their shop page so I wasn't really expecting such a prompt and high up reply!

There isn't an option for this at the moment. Would be nice, but not there.

If you have a bass and drums, all you need is the novelty acts to top it off!

In a way handy I guess, I wouldn't mind the new 4K one, but don't really have a justification at present!

ok, so your external battery pack was getting more and more worn down - that would happen. Strange your batteries didn't last - I only just recently got the external battery pack (probably why my charge port hasn't died) as I always just used to take 4 rechargeables, 2 for the first 1'30 set, then change the batteries at half time, whole gig recorded. I decided this year it was a pain to change half way, so I got an external pack. All in all I love the zoom Q2n, it has been no trouble at all and I have used it in a lot of gigs. In fact all my zoom stuff, I have recorded every practice and gig with my H2n

Maybe, or you were unlucky. I am not sure how 'the batteries started not lasting long' works - as the batteries are changeable, how can the amount of time they last change, unless you were always using the same rechargeable batteries (and they do lose power after a number of recharges). Not sure if you mean that your Q2n started taking more power, seems unlikely it could do that. Obviously mine lasts as long on a fresh set of batteries today as it did when I bought it in december 2016. Not surprised about the charging port - microusbs are a horrible way of charging anything and they all break in the end

Mine is still going strong after many years. The batteries last long enough for half a gig (so if I change them at half time its fine) or the whole gig with the external battery pack. Never had any problems with it.

I did a guitar probably worse than that! I think the issue here is mistaking something now which is a holy relic, ie a 68 jazz bass with 'someones bass'. Lots of basses got modified, they are more functional things than collectables back then.

Me too - I am not really bothered about seeing someone in a stadium unless it is a show. I mean, like pink floyd back when they had the big screen and flying pigs and lights shows, that was fine, because lets face it, who wanted to actually 'see' the people themselves, but in general, can't be bothered with that.

I used to use the Line 6 sonic port. It stopped working for a while after an update, then started working again. Works pretty well, I use either Jamup or anytune. If I was travelling light I would probably stick to that unless I could get one of the boss waza air things. Currently though at home I just use the Spark Amp, which has a lot more with the jam features and effects etc.

I do have some of the Gotohs, the ones that came with the Ibanez 1605, which I replaced with hipshots to reduce weight (as that has a very light body). But they are probably a bit gold for that bass. I like the look of the ultralights but they have a big section above the tuner which might not fit.

Agreed - I wondered when that became a thing, it used to work well!

Indeed not, but if there is a product with a known fault maybe it is worth updating their design?

Yes, that is exactly when I get it. It is because your cookie has timed out, so it doesn't believe who you are. Actually visiting it refreshes it so it works the second time.

I get that if I click a link to go to basschatfrom my pc upstairs. I mean, it is what it says, the page you requested doesn't exist with the credentials you provided. So for instance if it was a page that isn't publicly viewable it relies on your cookie ID. If that cookie has timed out, then it is right, that page does not currently exist for you.

I contacted Schaller, I await their reply, although TBH, I don't really trust them much now, so I think I might have to replace them with a quality brand, like you say, wilkinson or something!

On the fluence, do you have the same issues that they bang on about on Talkbass when it is related to the Spector Dimension (that has fluence pickups and sounds great), notably that the magnetic field is way within the bounds of the pickup body? It did sort of put me off when I was looking into getting a dimension. I am guessing not the same level of issue as it is not a fanned fret bass so it doesn't have to be as wide. https://www.talkbass.com/threads/spector-ns-dimension.1498200/page-9 Here it is for reference, I didn't notice a problem when I tried it. EDIT: I realise now I read it back this is only of relevance on a 6 string or a fanned fret,sorry! The fishman is one of the nicer pickups I have used (if not used for long).

Yep, that is exactly where mine went, and is exactly that type of tuner. I thought there must be something there, two lose one tuner would be unfortunate, to lose two is obviously a design fault! I guess its time for some gohtos or some hipshots (although the hipshots have quite a bit of gear the other side of the tuning post.

Thats the one - I enjoy that version, can't imagine playing the original.

Wow - good market if you can get it. I think I will stick for doing it free on my own computer with as many songs and whatever quality I want!

The screw wasn't loose, it was the same as all the others. The issue can only be solved now by replacing the head unfortunately as they are broken (or the finger bit but they don't do that separately.

I didn't see any description, but yes, that much is obvious. Who provides that as a service then when you can do it for free?

Our We do Twist and Shout & Surfin' USA, which we save for the end as they go down a storm. Noone in the band was born when those tracks were written.

Mine was a nick in the tolex too. Its pretty good for the price reduction. They also had a Head of Doom reduced to half price for a while. just when I was thinking maybe I should get that, it sold!
