  1. Depends on the instrument - in some cases it is worse than not having it
  2. Wow, I didn't know Jennifer Lopez even used the hyperdrive!
  3. Because that is where you plug it in, it makes logical sense, turn it on when you have set it up. Why do you want the switch on the front, do you need to turn it off while you are gigging?
  4. No! I want the power button on the back next to the power socket - always. Ashdown, yes to a tuner but more so, not white on baby blue background, lettering you have some hope of reading!
  5. Yes, I had a HB jazz, and the output of that was fine (pretty similar to the Geddy Lee Jazz I had). If it wasn't for the weight I would still have it, it played very well and sounded good live.
  6. So what convinces you that other peoples concern over the nut width is in their heads, but your concern over neck shape or scale length isn't?
  7. Click on the triple dot at the top right of your first post, select 'edit', click on the title and add the word SOLD at the end (or TRADED or WITHDRAWN) and it will do it
  8. SR300s are good, solid basses. They work very well for the price. i am not a huge fan of the pickups in them but the playability is pretty much the same of any of the standard SR ranges.
  9. If only I didn't have a 'view edit history' button eh?
  10. Noone so far is in the 200s.. you sure you read the rules?
  11. Can't help feeling @fiatcoupe432 that you might have missed a page or so 292 (from spiders)
  12. I would rather not (and isn't his name Ye these days?). But I don't have a problem with people with lyrics so not an issue for me. In a previous band the singer used to mess up the words to everything, I wish he had lyrics.
  13. Yes, that is why meat loaf never got anywhere
  14. Dolly Parton did at Glastonbury. I think the general rule is that if Dolly can do it, everyone can.
  15. The whole thing is like a bad downloaded midi file
  16. I am currently down to 3 ibanez srs, 1 premium and 2 prestiges (1605, 1000efm, 5005), all of which have monorails, and none of which have this issue. I did have another premium (2605) withh monorails that didn't have this either. So certainly not all.
  17. Did one in a local pub that reopened this year (which is a rarety round here, normally closing, not reopening). Paid way more than usual as he liked us when we did the first opening night when he started - which was an amazing night which, although I would like to think it is because we are great, is probably more becuase it was one of the first gigs after lockdown. Anyway, started at 8:30 as they have built a block of houses next to the pub in lockdown so they now get noise complaints and we have to finish by 11 - had a hard 'no one more song' at 11. Crowd were great, dancing from the 3rd song, very interactive, everyone seemed happy, came up afterwards asking where we were next, got some new people we haven't seen before, as well as regulars. Even the drummers mum said it was good and she normally doesn't (even though she comes to every gig).
  18. I noticed that last time I was in Bristol, it has been moved by temple meads, which is not an area I generally go to, so probably won't really nip in again.
  19. Exactly the same with me - i had the oportunity to go and see them on my birthday in London a few years back, and I decided not to as they were pretty well unlistenable then, speaking as someone who got into rush at 14 and they were my number 1 group for most of my life.
  20. No, you normally get it about the same time (I did) - looks like it slipped through, that is good! It often seems to be down to luck
  21. They didn't, and more specifically, I feel they really pushed them, whatever the question was their answer was varifocals.
  22. I don't think it has changed over the years, just some basses have stupidly wide nuts and some don't, but the nut spacing on my old ibanez is the same as the ones on the newer ones, ditto the spector.
