    Given the subject of the post, I have to admit I wasn’t specific referring to this person - these videos are so obviously mimed and, not knowing anything else about her, I’d love to think she was just taking the piss out of “influencers” and the entire audience commenting are in on the joke. Maybe the lesson links take you off to the ultimate shred rickrole or something! but I fear that maybe a parallel universe where honest politicians and common sense and critical thinking skills thrive. I’m not long for social media, it’s turning in to more effort than it is worth.

    😂 Well, true, he hasn’t pretended that he doesn’t know he’s using his body as clickbait.

    I do think it IS getting harder to convince the “I won’t pay for music” crowds the value of what we do. It’s bad enough trying to get a “like” and a “share” for slaving for hours over a video editor!

    To put it another way, my friend is a top-tier bassist who gets to play with one of the most famous bands in the world, but his follower numbers are absolutely dwarfed by pretty people who know how to put out for the camera.

    Originally planned to keep this bass longer, but things have changed. I am currently using it to record a product review where I have swapped out the pickups. When complete all the electronics will be returned to stock and the bass will be up for sale. Unfortunately the bass does have an issue which affects the price and therefore I am selling it more as parts than an “as new” example - despite it being in otherwise incredible condition. The truss rod is and has always been stuck. Thankfully, if you like a pretty flat neck, that’s where it is right now. Highlights: Roasted Neck, Nordstrand Pickups, Luminlay, Hipshot Tuners, Babicz FCH Bridge, Markbass preamp, ULTRA light bass, Bone nut, 22 Frets A great bass has just the right blend of timeless design and modernized features. The GB Modern bass is developed for the J-Bass enthusiasts with a surprisingly lightweight design for greater comfort and enhanced playability while reducing fatigue. Also featured are top tier visual and spec enhancements such as roasted maple neck and fretboard, Hipshot® Ultralite Tuners and Babicz® FCH4 Bridge to reduce the weight even further, and an ultimate tone combination of Nordstrand® Big Single Pickup Set paired with MarkBass® MB Instrument Pre preamp system.

    Will upload pictures in a bit, one of the best compressor pedals on the market for features! It hasn’t been on a pedal board for a little while now and has Velcro on the bottom ready for its new home. https://www.tcelectronic.com/product.html?modelCode=HE123 https://images.app.goo.gl/63gJJkCtEDRHVFio6 S/H one here for £120+p&p: https://www.absolutemusic.co.uk/tc-electronic-ndy-1-nova-dynamics-dual-compressor-and-noise-gate-effects-pedal-pre-owned.html NDY-1 Nova Dynamics Features FOUR compressor pedals and TWO Noisegate pedals in one unit, infinitely configureable! Dual Mono, Stereo, 4+ cable method, Serial mode. MANUAL: - https://service-tcgroup.tcelectronic.com/media/Nova_Dynamics_US.pdf [*]2 compressor modes: studio (multi-band 3 way) & stomp (full range) [*]Noise gates (frequency dependent) [*]Dual engine design [*]Dry blend – parallel compression (Perfect for bass players) [*]Flexible routing [*]Auto input gain adjustment [*]Precise gain reduction meter High quality dual engine compression and noise gate made stompbox simple. Packed with never before seen functionalities Nova Dynamics sets new standards to floor-based dynamics control. Its dual engine design offers a variety of setup and control options that allow you to tailor Nova Dynamics to fit your rig. Use the two engines for different compression settings or switch between stomp compression for that classic "squash" and TC's advanced multiband compression for subtle, studio-style dynamics control. You can even split the two engines in Nova Dynamics and have a compressor in front of your amp and noise gate in your amp effects loop for true noise reduction of high gain signals. The Dry Blend feature lets you blend your dry signal in with the compressed signal for optimized attack with no eating into the dynamics while the automatic input gain adjustment on both engines brings perfect settings for e.g. both a Strat and a Les Paul at the flick of a switch. £100 + £5 towards insured mainland shipping.

    You don't have to have talent to win on social media, but it helps if you have the body for it. They should just rename it thirsttrapagram and be done with it.

    Anyone who knows my “chats” (students) will already have their coffee and biscuits within arm’s reach. Today, one of my students threw me an off-the-cuff question during a lesson. Ninety minutes later, we finally had to wrap things up—half an hour over time—because I wanted to make sure every detail was covered. The question was about using tablets, laptops, or desktops alongside audio interfaces for practice at home, recording, and live performance. We ended up diving into everything from hardware options (interfaces, multi-effects with built-in interfaces, etc.) and key specifications, to saving money with smart software choices. We covered IRs, neural modelling, Bluetooth and its drawbacks, latency issues and fixes, and even multi-path audio setups for separate signal chains and destinations (FOH, IEMs, backline). We finished with signal chain strategies for transmitting your sound efficiently and effectively. And I still wasn't done. I love these lessons, it's exciting to build a lesson on the fly.

    Marshall ‘69 super bass coming up for sale soon.

  11. Dood
    I'd prefer 22 in a perfect world, but 21 is still absolutely do-able, the rest of the options more than make up for it. Thank you for the update and correction.
  12. Dood
    Thank you so much. That’s all pretty perfect actually. My 6er gets to stay, it is an extraordinary instrument that’s for sure, but some things have to give and I’ve already spoken to Jon S about my 7. Maybe one day I’ll be able to commission a new “doodle”.
  13. Dood
    One word. Lush. 😍
  14. Dood
    That’s a great question actually! Are the 21/22 fret fretboards using an extension, thus they will bit a standard 20 fret design body rout? Also, do we have any indications of the exact headstock shape @Kiwi? And yes, I’d love one but I’ve 30 years of debt that says it ain’t gonna happen any time soon. Wanna buy a 7 string?
  15. Dood
    (This will give a maximum recommended string spacing over the pickup of 66mm moving up to 77.2mm spacing for the E6W version).

    For a brighter tone, D'Addario Pro Steels work really well on my Ash bodied Precision bass. The bass has quite a full sounding pickup on board so those strings pair well. The thing I like about using steels is that you can turn the tone down a little to find a sweet spot - but you can't coax zing out of a string that doesn't have those qualities. That said, I like the brightness of the D'Addario NYXL and even the XL Nickels fresh and crisp out the packet! "Ready to go" tone!

    updating now. I'm actually really looking forward to the Cory Wong modules!
  18. Dood
    I've had no indications to that end at the moment. They sound great, like active EMGs in general, popping the passive tone back a bit gives a great "more familiar passive tone", but there's the clarity if thats what you're after on tap too.
  19. Dood
    The ExW is indeed a wide aperture ceramic pickup. 12.2Khz res frequency, "giant stacked square coil". EMG say they have essentially filled the entire shell to accomodate the design. It will do 27 VDC like other EMGs if thats your bag. E4W: 32mm x 101mm E5W: 32mm x 109mm E6W: 32mm x 119mm

    GainStage Pro didn't win me over - but it was a freebie, so hey-ho. There's a great little plugin by Hornet (It might be called AutoGain Pro) that offers the option of selecting what you actually want your output to be and it does the adjustment for you. (It's not a limiter)

    I wish I were in a position to snag a Luminlay 22 fret version. WOH!

    I use Claro in conjunction with Smart-EQ4 (Sonible) either for quick and dirty mixes or for being a second set of ears when I need a different perspective. Smart-EQ is great as it listens to other selected tracks (busses for example) and you can decide what needs to sit forward or back in the mix. Clever stuff. I've dropped Arc 4 in to Listen Hub along with corrective EQ, great for just enjoying music in general but, yes, I'm new to this app, but loving it! I had trial versions of Ground Control, Caster and Room by Ginger Audio trying to make them do what Listen Hib does, so, I'm pretty pelased with my silly cheap snag!
  23. Dood
    I bagged Claro and Listen Hub for silly pennies the other day after snagging IK's Arc 4 for £25. I have a reference mic already so this has been a super nice upgrade to my studio along with some ridiculous deals that have been appearing on https://audioplugin.deals such as Sonible's smart plugin series. Deals! Everywhere!

    As a teenager, figuring out where bass fits with other instruments, the Queen back catalogue offered a great deal of insight. I learned to play unison with that piano left hand, move out of its way or make room for striding lines. In later life playing in prog bands, it was noticed and some of the fattest riffs came not from distorted guitars but rock solid piano and bass
