  1. Probably no more than any string through body bass - although maybe the curve is a bit less
  2. Seemed remarkably uneventful, so not that swanky, but still cock-a-hoop that it worked ok
  3. Worse that that, some people find fenders good looking
  4. Really depends on the song - I have done just over 20 in 2 weeks and honestly some songs you can do 3 absolutely fine in 1 night and then one song takes days of work to get right (or longer). But we are all different in how quickly we learn things, so there is no actual specific number you can learn, it is down to you. If it is too much for you, say so.
  5. But that is the thing, you will never pick it up so it doesn't matter that it sounds great. So looks are very important.
  6. Yorkshire is a bit too much of a jog! makes sense, although there are a finite number of basses, the demand for YOB basses from the earlier years increased as people had the money for them, but as time goes on the number of those people is reducing and like anything (vintage cars etc) prices can go down, seems artificially high at the moment
  7. Seems a lot of work for not much money!
  8. Hi All, another upgrade on the 13/14th Jan, nothing major but if you see any new bugs can you let me know, thanks
  9. Fender musical instruments inc was the company setup by the management group that bought fender from CBS in 1985
  10. Indeed - but that isn't a moog I had thought of those, and I also did think of the moog theremini, but it hard to see what it is like because if you look on a place where theremin players hang out, using a theremini is basically digging up Leon Theramin himself and using his body as a scarecrow, but a bit worse. Wonder what they will make of that. If this turns up it will be a fun thing at a price that is still in the fun area
  11. Indeed - and that is what put me off getting one - I have a few insruments that I don't have time for, but until you try, you don't know if it would be fantastic or not so great. I can't really imagine doing mustang sally on it at the dog and duck. Crazy horses on the other hand... But this, at near £100, as a pure music making machine, I can live with that, and also lets me know if it is something I would like to do. I don't think you get many theramins at open mic nights
  12. I dont' think this is unusual for ibanez. Although there are a lot of different SRs, that is only because they have been going so long. Each year they have a few models in a few colours. Otherwise it is a big market to cover.
  13. Thats where I am with this!
  14. I think the theremin has the synth engine of the X1 by the look of the controls.
  15. Why? if you are watching something on the telly you just press the record button and watch it later - also unlike online players or youtube, you can skip any adverts
  16. isn't your one pickupless on the front? Mine the pickups are sort of part of the neck, so not much scope for adjustment
  17. I think the great advantage of this is the cost - I think they should have probably put a trigger out on in or some other interface, but that is not really what they are about. But build that into some filters and a bit of cheap hacking, and people are going to do great things with it!
  18. They just sent me a new power supply as I bought an SY300 really cheap on their blowout but it was from germany so had a euro plug.
  19. But I am thinking a raspberry pi micro to do pitch to midi for an output
  20. Im guessing not the drums and I would imagine there were multiple tracks and effects put on afterwards (although it has echo)
  21. Just as a follow up, I complained to G4M that it didn't have a UK power supply or adapter, and they sent me a new genuine boss PSA power supply for it
  22. I just noticed. Thats a problem then
  23. The electrics are fine - the pickups are delano humbuckers in a J style case and east pre. I love the electronics, but you can hear the strap moving through the output, so I guess they are just too rigidly held or undamped or something. Not much room to get any other type of pickup in though
  24. I certainly didn't, or would have shown much interest, even as a lover of theramins, but somehow, I had to sign up for this: https://stylophone.com/theremin-pre-order/
