Cant imagine a Spector with barts, although I suspect they are the US barts rather than the bart licensed things that Ibanez use in their budget basses. I do have one with Agulars though and that is probably my favourite

Mostly good gig. This was a halloween party about 30 miles away, which is far from us, but the pay was pretty good. hard to find place, but easy to set up while we were there. This was the first gig we had done since the band almost split up, and there is still an undercurrent there. However, we played pretty well all night, and the crowd were friendly and happy. 5 minutes before our alloted time to finish the guitarist decided that was it for him as he had to get home so we didn't get to do an encore which was a shame, he says he is leaving in the new year so better start looking for another one, not bad going I guess as it is the same lineup since 2016. All in all, not too bad though and at least the country roads are quieter at night

Maybe the type of gig you do is the problem then?
-
Agreed - I had an HB bass, and it played supurbly but I am sure after a gig I was a few inches shorter and there was a dent in the floor where I was standing!
-
On mine I found it easier to leave everything as it was and do any tone shaping I wanted on my pedalboard.
-
I enjoyed having mine but too heavy for me to want to carry it everywhere
-
I would say the others were!

Can't you just use twotone sheeting, like this sort of thing https://www.amazon.co.uk/d-c-fix®-Sticky-Plastic-adhesive-346-0356/dp/B005DKTGOI/?tag=googshopuk-21&hvadid=309889582779&hvpos=&hvrand=494127037676983566

You don't - posts get locked when they are done (by adding sold / withdrawn / traded in the title) unless there is an error then you report it and ask the mods to sort it

Nope, you are right. Bass, treble and centre have a detent in the middle which is the mid way - so one side of the detent is cut and one side of the detent for all of those controls. The other one is the mid frequency, which as you say has no centre position, so this is right. That one being the bottom of the 3rd knob from the neck end.

I have a pair of ZS10s and a P2, although I don't use the P2, I let the drummer use that (as he isn't moving anyway). I use the XVive, it works for me ok. -
Still getting notifications from unfollowed threads
Woodinblack replied to prowla's question in Site Issues and Questions
Is this a thread that you had commented on, or one you were following, as I get notifications of anything I commented on, even if I unfollow. I guess it shouldn't be that way -
Take it apart, clean the beer out - its sticky and conductive.

I guess "affordable" and "budget" are in the ear of the beholder!
-
Well, that is a terribly polite version. More pop goes easy listening. Technially well done I suppose but a bit lifeless compared to either the original or the more well known Nattybruge version!
-
His acoustic bass section was certainly good. Although the 80s was starting to a look a lot like home!

Would you fret a vintage fretless p bass?
Woodinblack replied to Cscsiga's topic in General Discussion
Personally I would just get another neck that was already fretted, mainly because it is just a lot less faff than fretting something. Save the neck in case you want to go back at some point. -
I wouldn't expect a bass I bought to be setup how I wanted when I got it (unless I had asked for that), but I would expect it to be playable.

Well, this helps a lot to start with: https://github.com/deezer/spleeter

Residency. Kind of. Who has done one, pros and cons?
Woodinblack replied to Paul S's topic in General Discussion
We did one pub every month for a year and a half (then covid came along). It was handy in that it felt comfortable, it had people that knew us and we could try out new stuff in an familiar environment to see how they worked. -
if the audio is before the beat why would you want to advance it, or is this just me misunderstanding your use of advance here? So (for my clarity) in your DAW you have some data you have put in by hand (that you call the audio) that is on the beat, or the reference, and then you record by playing that out and playing along with it from a keyboard, where you would expect 20ms input delay and 30ms audio delay but find that the recorded midi is in advance of the audio? In which case the only two possible reasons are that the computer is deciding you have this delay and shifting it by this number forward, but the numbers aren't right, or you are playing in advance of what you hear (I have this really bad problem for doing that unless I concentrate). Not sure about cubase, havent' used it for 20 years or so, but is there any auto correct in there for midi input? Oh yes, checking the web, there is an 'auto correct for latency' in the audio system, maybe something about that?

Stripy patches on screen
Woodinblack replied to redbandit599's question in Site Issues and Questions
I have been looking but I don’t have an android phone so I am currently not able to find a way of reproducing it. Is there a specific page that it will work on, or a specific phone / version of android? (I assume it is specific, there are hundreds of android users here and I assume only a subset seeing this?) -
Maybe they used to be smaller - I am sure I still have a bag for one somewhere, unless I added it when I sold mine. Glad you like it but safe to safe it wasn't the best amp i ever had!
-
Handy to know, I saw that but didn't know if it was any good. I had a £66 bow from bass bags in my basket currently
-
i had one of their bows in my cart, but now I look it is only available on bows over £150 which seems reasonable but I am nowhere near the £150 bow level yet, so I guess I will have to get something cheap to find out if it is something I want to do, and then if it is I can get something better
