When I am doing a practice I often dont' bother to take the pedalboard, because the sound isn't so important. Plus the ABM600 has EQ / overdrive / octave / Compressor, not that I use the last two in any meaningful way. Live I am in a cover band so yes, pedalboard, overdrive, chorus, octave (up), echo, sample playback and synth. Though not at the same time!

I would say 6 of one and half a dozen of the other. The end position is convenient for going along the strap, but a lot of people have trouble with it pulling out, so would presumably prefer it there.

I agree - in one of my own gig the drummers dad complained that the drums and bass were too loud. He clearly didn't realise that if we turned it down he would have had to listen to the guitar! I would say to that that he is not wasting the audiences time, in this case it is the audience wasting their own time. And noone really has the right to tell someone not to waste their own time, even the person wasting it. Indeed - I liked doing the slap part at the end of 'Run' by snow patrol!

Drum solos are good, gives you the oportunity to have a pee and get to the bar

I had one until recently, I liked it, even with the stock pickups, although I can see why people think they were a bit weak, although not noisy. I tried it with black beuties too, although I didn't like the feel of the strings, but the colour was great! Great neck on them and would have used it a lot more if it had just had another string!

Ian bought my Future Impact, super fast payment and transaction really smooth from start to finish, thanks and have fun with it!

Amazon don't care about other people, and any change that is done won't help them (in fact, almost certainly amazon will avoid that), this is purely pressure from Amazon to get Visa UK to give them a lower cut (which you can bet is already percentages lower than anyone elses), which presumably they will do, so Amazon will have yet one more advantage over everyone else.

Are the schallers any lighter?

Yes, the apple camera connection kit, which is just a USB to lighning connector.

Just the normal, check a different power lead, make sure it is in right, check the fuses etc. Sounds like something was loose until i ttried to get power. Did it click at all?

I had no issue with the video, I didn't see it. I was just commenting on the education system. If I had realised that putting this throw-away comment would be too upsetting for some people I would have also not bothered. I thought we had agreed to disagree. To some degree yes. I just think there is more to an education system than how the education of children turn out. It came from watching a program quite a while ago by a South Korean guy about their eduction when people were complaining that our system was too lax (which maybe it is, and maybe things have changed since, esp. with the lockdown), where a lot of south korean children were dealing with a lot of stress, with a risk of suicide due to the fierce competition of the schools, and how failing in school in SK, pretty well condemns your future in a way it probably doesn't here. Sorry for the diversion.

Oh no, I have had other ones (although I still have the 1994 one), its just all the others were refurbs. No, it took a lot of justifying, but then I pretty well live on my macbook pro, and the one it is replacing is 2013, so for a laptop I am expecting to use every day for the next 8 years, the costs are a bit easier to justify. Although the speed and slickness of it are impressive as expected, the thing that was really shockingly good was the sound - I have no idea how they make it sound so big.

I did the same and got a M1 Macbook Pro 16". First new macbook since 1994, very impressed!

Your kids not being driven to kill themselves because of the pressure of your education system. ok!

4th highest suicide rate in the world. I would say they are failing quite badly myself.

When Dusty Hill damaged his shoulder he just played a keyboard!

The future impact. Seems like if you want synth noises, and you had a 13 pin connector, the GR1000 would be a good way to go. Obviously not!

I was thinking with the FI connected.

So neat. Although not sure how you get your foot to that shelf. Although as you already have a GK13 cable, why not a GR1000 or something?

I must say I do like your labels. Every single time I gig with it I am like "So is the red one in?" and every time I practice it is "Is the one nearest the headphone?" Which is crazy, as I have a labeller!

I did a gig sitting down once, although to be fair, I had just had my knee replaced and I wasn't even really supposed to be out

I had no problem with the unlined part of my fretless, it was just the fretless itself which I was completely untalented on!

There is a K&M electric guitar stand, I am sure a bass would work just as well https://www.thomann.de/gb/km_14760.htm
