Well, if the LEDs come on, so it has power, it sounds like some problem in the output wiring (as you would hear a click or something when power turned up), or if it has a passive bypass switch, a problem with your switch wiring. I would buzz that all out and check it was as you expected

Do you hear anything out of the output, even a click when it is engaged?

Yes, I just wondered what was needed on there. Still, not really a good advert for the Scott Devine Overwater bass, I don't think I have seen him play that for years!

Is that the only bridge they do these days? I liked the bridge in the EB5 2013 I had, other than the strings were too far apart, it was certainly well made.

I wondered that on Scott Devines new bass: Just seemed a bit crowded. Actually now I look at it, almost as random as the Markbass

True, which is why I was impressed with fender doing so. I guess it is different for valves, it is pretty easy to work out the circuit anyway

Well, hard to say really, the internet is a very public place! But also it depends on the term friends, I would say in general none of them as I don't have out with any of them outside the band but it doesn't mean I don't necessarily like them.

Well, the zoom does all the other effects that the rest of them don't do.

Noticed this in bass players market, probably best to get it out there in case

Well, I am never going to look that good so there is no point trying!

I said happy, not a Childs TV presenter (or in our case, the singer), I occasionally manage a look of quiet contentment, or sometimes even amusement - no-one wants a smiling bass player, it unnerves them.

Same here

I resent that - I am not even slight unhappy!

Oh come on, there is Cycling, Brexit and religion, ok, but Jazz? Some people have just got to go that bit too far!

Its the way you tell them

Do women cyclists pay enough road tax? <runs>

late 40s isn't old, not like it was when my parents were old! However it is older and it is quite disturbing when things cause issues. I was in my mid 40s when my knee collapsed, and while admittedly there were reasons that hastened that (earlier bike accidents in my early 20s), it came as a shock. Also I had a problem when I would miss easy notes when I was playing, which turned out to be trapped nerves in my neck (which was fixed by simply changing pillows!). All those years certainly add up and it is worth getting things checked if you can pin it on anything.

Doesn't' that watch dig in? It looks uncomfortable!

I think sometimes we are reluctant to think that things change when we age and adjust to it. I have recently change how I always sat with my leg up because it occured to me that it was uncomfortable, wheras I used to sit that way because it was more comfortable. Sometimes rather than wondering why it might be worth accepting it and moving on. Maybe later on it will happen to me so I can finally try all these basses with over 16.5mm spacing that people seem to like!

Oh that is a good deal if you are a professional musician.

You still have a month to buy as much as you can though, so that is ok, with the added advantage it becomes more sellable here, plus foreigners can buy it back off you cheaply!
