I must admit I need to spend some quality time fiddling around with the buttons to make sure that my understand is the same as the buttons understanding of what they do!

Well, noone needs pedals if they have a group of people processing the sound somewhere else. But for the rest of us...

I am not saying that - I am saying that no code has changed in the last 24 hours. There is an update waiting but it hasn't been done yet. Although always happy to get references to where the problem has occured, although it hard to see why.

Nothing has changed, maybe it was finger error?

If you don't need one, don't get one. Seems pretty essential to me.

It sounds very much something in the B1/Four is loose, and probably just a coincidence what you are doing with the other guitars.

The CVs are generally well regarded, so yes, probably the jazzes.

I would say in the vast majority the volume (and any balance) of most active basses are before the preamp, so the output is the same impedance at all volume settings. I can't think of any off hand that aren't that way, certainly that way on all of mine, but I am sure there are some that could be the other way.

Ah, so not separate amps then. from what you described which was two basses going to two amplifiers, I would have just had a B1/four for each, but now I see you are connecting them to one amplifier.

On *this page*, yes, probably.

The only P Bass I ever got was the Classic Vibe 70s P bass, it just outshone everything in the store in some way that mattered to me (not that the store had much in). Played it for ages but it eventually got sidelined as I can't really gig a 4 string.

Have you tried it with batteries. When you say 'I was brief getting power' does that mean the screen lit up?

The fretboard is anodised, I am not sure how robust, other than I haven't scratched it

Dont you just post a thread in the events, like you did with this one - why does it need a mods intervention?

It doesn't matter where something is made, all that matters is where that thing is. If you are in the UK and want to send something to the EU or vice versa, you need to pay import duties and VAT to your own country. So it doesn't matter if it is someone selling a german bass from the UK to Germany, all that matters is that it is in the UK and it needs to go to the UK.

I am the same with that - I can't stand using a cable, it feels too odd, its in the way etc. I would be very reluctant to go back to a cable it has to be said! Why not send it back to thomman if you don't want it?

They dont' need to make customs, they already produce the pickups for the 1505s etc.

My first one that I sent back due to the cracked headstock had fine knobs, which was good as they just replaced the neck! It has the east knobs that are close to touching but don't quite. There is no stiffness though.

These are almost certainly the right answers, but it just makes me really nervous, there is a bit of a risk of damaging the surface, or if it gets messed up, cleaning it up afterwards. Maybe the real answer is to give it to someone who won't mess it up

If you are not careful when listing it automatically switches that offer thing on, so last time I listed something as an auction someone immediately made me an offer of half my starting price. So I switched offers off.

That is indeed how it is supposed to work. Although obviously you can offer anything, and if they wanted to accept it they could, but generally it is an offer above the starting price to end it eariy.

Depending on if you are really asking whether there is an advantage to active pickups or active basses (which as mentioned are generally passive pickups and a buffer or preamp), the initial (and still the best) purpose is to reduce signal loss going to your amp. If you have an active bass, the signal created by your pickups is sent to your amp. If you have a passive bass, the signal your amp gets is the signal of your pickups and all the wiring that goes between you and your amp (or effects), so you tend to loose the high frequencies quite a bit with such a circuit. Also because the output is a low impedance, you have less noise injected in your cables on a long signal run.

Well, I would suggest you are in the wrong thread then! The couch ones are the softest and most comfortable ones I have, busy replacing all the leather ones.

Sadly not, but do they not just do rather flat plain plastic?
