    And my appointment was in March 2020. Then March 2020 struck and obviously, it couldn't happen because well, march 2020. So they sent me a message saying they had to close it down. Last month they sent me a message saying they were opening it up, and so today I trotted down to quite a nice practice studio in Bristol, and had my ears measured. I have have got healthy ears apparently, and they work well, which was a surprise to my wife So now I wait 3 weeks for my 17dB filters. Agree, it really is.

    Yep same here - his voice is undoubtedly good, hope he can get a good song to do.

    Oh yes, thats the Samual Summer Gradeflora, it has been flowering for years now, most of the year round. It was a fancy expensive one when it wasn't very big, now it is huge, as are its flowers. We have another one that was a cheap garden centre one, also now massive, also flowers all year round. the flowers if anything are more impressive on that one, but they hardly smell. The Samual summer really smells like a magnolia, it is fantastic. I never knew anything about gardens but we got this house with a biggish garden and we left it for a few years. It was big and empty. Then I thought, I know, I will plant a few trees around to make it less empty, I like trees. So I did. Turns out they grow.

    Been a few months since I bumped. Same as ebay, loads of questions, no sale. But no mind, now the reason I was selling it is gone, so it saves me getting anything else!

    TIme for my late october bump.

    Apparently tomorrow. We had a practice yesterday (the highest number of people I had been in proximity with since March) and we sucked big time, so should be fun!

    My 5 string Caspar was active and 30"

    The control plate of the stingray looks like the control plate the G&L had when they started (but then dropped). I like that but the rounded pick guard looked just wrong. Which is a shame, I always liked the sound of them.

    Mine was a L2500 tribute, I just looked, it was 17mm spacing / 68mm bridge, so smaller than I thought but wider than the Sub Ray5 I had. Maybe yours had a non standard bridge (maybe american custom, although I don't see them doing that as a custom thing), as looking on the net that is what the specs say. Either way, he doesn't like the look of them so thats that out (and I understand that, I never really liked the look of a stingray 5).
  12. Woodinblack
    Its more than 16mm (would have loved it if it was), AFAIK it is 17.5mm. It was right on the limit of how wide I will put up with (I only sold mine a few months ago)
  13. Woodinblack
    Isn't that your answer there then? Or a G&L 5 which is pretty similar

    They still are amoungst me.

    Well, gibson never really liked basses, and lets face it they will sell 10 different coloured les pauls for every bass. Having said that, they make all of 3 basses, 2 of them are 30.4" and only one (the thunderbird) is 34", so they never really bought into long scale

    Or a magazine of 6 batteries, and a mechanism that ejects the old one and puts the new one in place, like a pump action.

    Interestingly (or not, depending on your interest), on the Railboard, the pickup block (which is switchable stereo / mono) is passive, unless you connect either XLR output on it to a phantom power source, in which case, it becomes active. Don't see why you couldn't do that on a bass.
  18. Woodinblack
    Yes it would. What is the problem unplugging it?
  19. Woodinblack
    Yeh, true, that would probably be the easiest option. Especially as I have some coverters around!

    It litterally is an octave below a guitar I would say it looks like B (30.7) rather than C (~32.7), but a bit hard to see on that chart
  21. Woodinblack
    Funny, if you don't know what that is, and you google it and go to the manufacturers site, there is a video on their main page by someone that has a really similar name to yours

    3" taller than Suzi Quatro
  23. Woodinblack
    I am suspecting that is electric bass, as it has a black section where covers where the B string would be

    Maybe it was for years everyone was making copies of fender Ps and Js, which is why everything was 34", while a lot of the rest of the brands continued with their short and medium scale. I always wondered, if you have short, medium and long, why is the long most common rather than the medium?

    The terms seem quite consistent
