  1. I would have ample time to do that while the guitarist retunes
  2. Honestly if there is extra weight that you can actually feel, there is something wrong with the contstruction! My EHB1505 which is what I am playing at the moment is under 8lbs. And although its string spacing is a bit wide, it isn't uncomfortable unlike, say, a P bass.
  3. Thats because it is much easier for most people with commonly available equipment to measure resistance. Same with speakers. Also there is one important measurement - a pickup with a resistance of either zero or really high is broken!
  4. I know that, I was playing mine earlier!
  5. Is it a chinese import? I don't think you can actually sell licensed ones in the UK with 5.8, just 5 or 2.4GHz, in the same way that our routers miss out a couple of channels you have have in the states.
  6. Thats good if it doesn't go up much.
  7. As previously mentioned, everything can be played on a 1 string, some people are just more used to using 4.
  8. Sadly already £140 above its value!
  9. Yes. Does anyone need a 4 string bass?
  10. Presumably as it was on telly it had been rehearsed before recording with a piano or something. Singing something at the same pitch as something you heard before isn't perfect pitch
  11. Agreed, it is what you are used to. There was a combination of mainstream music (4/4) and classical growing up, so I don't find other time signatures a problem, in fact for listening music I prefer them, but there are some genres that it doesn't work, and some people that just haven't been exposed to anything else who can't cope. But we don't have one natural scale, we have several depending on the instrument. The scale on a piano is different from the scale on a guitar, even if only slightly. If someone has perfect pitch (compared with someone who just says they have which is a much larger segment), they can literally hear the frequency, which means if it is somewhere between an F and an F#, they will know that, because they can hear the pitch. I have only met 2 people with perfect pitch, but a lot more than claim to have it. And.. we are all born with the ability to have perfect pitch, but most of us lose it due to a lack of exersize.
  12. That sounds promising!
  13. Serious nostalgia there, going round my mates house and listening to that and those things like it.
  14. it is - and I would know that and buy it and then end up not playing it because its a 4. I always know this before i do it, but somehow I still do it!
  15. If it is the same as my shuker 6 was, which was made a couple of years after this, the trim pot is for middle Q and is not really something you want to play with once it is set.
  16. If I lived near that I would be round his house today with some cash!
  17. My plan was that we were going to do quiet practices but then after agreeing to it, the guitarist didn't want to (you would think it would be the drummer wouldn't you? no).
  18. I have a jam hub. I really need to sort out what I am doing with it, as I don't think I have used it in years.
  19. Oh I assumed when you said C4 that was the prototype! Same here. They were so bad but looked so cool.
  20. Cool - A full set of sinclair products if he also had the mini-tv!
  21. Same as others. Doesn't bring anything to that song. Very good musicianship for other songs though
  22. Careful., you could hurt yourself with that
  23. We had that when we were playing every weekend, god knows what it is going to be like when we get back!
  24. It is true though isn't it? I mean with the stomp, if you are not using an external pedal, it literally only has 3 pedals, of which one you need to change modes / tuners etc. So two buttons. I have looked, I didn't see any more buttons. So yes, you can do two pedals, but that seems it.
