And with a more than non zero selection of guitarists I have worked with, also a difference with those two and what they are tuned to!

I don't really see an issue with that. Anyone can take the risk of buying from the original supplier, waiting for the delivery and chasing up any problems that they want. Or they could buy from this guy and if something goes wrong send it back (and yes, I know he says he wont accept returns, but that is his opnion, not a statement of fact!). I have often bought something in the UK from a seller when I know there is the original in aliexpress, but I just don't have a few weeks to waste,

Did you copy in place with the same name or frame as the last picture? Maybe there is something there. Try uploading it as a second post with a different name and see if it does anything different

I don't know, there is no image compression in use on the site, although the images are now on cloudflare, so maybe they have something, unless whatever you were uploading it with has compression .

Thank the gods someone mentioned that - our new keyboard player decided he wanted to play that, and the guitarist joined in. I flat out refused as if I am not being paid by sainsburies I can't believe anyone in a pub ever wants to hear that song again.

What does an app do with the B2-four?

TBH - not sure I would trust them anyway, I had some of the flat audio cables like that and a large proportion of them stopped working

Because it is based on small numbers. A graph like that works well if you are selling a lot of things, current fender P basses etc, but if you are only selling a small number and the value of those things is based on hugely intangible things such as appearance and perceived authenticity, it is fairly useless.

Seems like a silly idea, but I would find it hard to criticise them because it is quite clear in the photo how they fit, so if that wasn't good why did you buy them? I have spent ages looking for plugs that went the right way, and many places don't show photos anywhere near that clear.

I have a few that I don't play, but just generally because of the nause of selling them. Worse still, I have guitars I haven't played in decades, for the same reason!

And don't forget the other bonus of a bongo, when the singer encroaches into your space and head buts your headstock, he will remember the bongo much longer than the fender!

I must admit since having a bongo, I haven't had any negative comments by anyone in person. I have actually had positive comments on it, and people do notice it, in a way they don't really with fender shaped objects. If you are someone who wants to blend into the background, a bongo certainly isn't the right bass.

I certainly feel that post lockdown audiences are different to pre-lockdown audiences in a negative way

Every so often some 4 string bass seems very appealing, and I forget that I play 5 strings almost exclusively. Then i end up not playing it and sell it. Then the cycle repeats!

Well, obviously its whichever you prefer, as you get a chance to play both, but I am not sure that there is much of a question on versatile. Do you want something that sounds like a P or something that can sound like other things. If you are doing session work a P is generally something you have as a lot of producers only want that. If you want modern, the bongo is it.

Mud are never a group that I would have thought of or described as glam, but i agree, there is so much more work in even the basic songs back then, especially for a bass player. Work that had pretty much dried up by the 90s!

Ignore me I am an idiot - I didn't see you had another singer due to the location of the camera!

There is a very high pitched overtone parallel with the singer - Is it an effect / distortion or a member of the public?

No, that is just a link to my default facebook feed - there is no other info on it - if you look at the link there is no information on it other than turning off a filter

Worse than 2, when I went through the cherry audio GX80, which is a faithful recreation of the CS80 with some GX1 presets too, playing a chord with every single of of the original presets was a song I knew (and in the presets is the whole of blade runner too). Presets are handy to give you an insight into what you can do with a thing, but shouldn't really be relied on as the only thing, unless thats what you want, in which case you would probably be better with a rom based thing - I have a DS61 and its beauty is that if you want a sound, you select a type (piano / organ / strings / wind / voice etc) and then select one of the presets - its not a synth and doesn't try to be, its for making known sounds. The argon isn't that, although when I want to synth anything, I always end up with the Waldorf Blofeld for hardware (or equator 2 on the mac).

Like anything, when you are used to it is easy enough. Any synth can dissapear into the mix, I mean it is easier than the DX yamaha range, and that managed to get itself on a lot of records

Funny but also deeply disturbing, its the phone jingle and advert industry today, the charts next year then thats it!

There are 160 wavetables, so not quite that many, although you can morph between pairs of wavetables Press init patch and go from there. This might help though:

USB A to USA C, USB A to Lightning are standard adaptors I have

It is a very different bass (I used to have an l2500 too), much bigger neck, much bigger feeling bass in general, but still quite a variation of tones on it, its not like a P although it can make that kind of sound
