Mine are not lace but heavy cotton cloths. Even my ears can tell the difference when off. 😀
-
Yup, have similar on the monitors but remove them when using the monitors.
-
Yup, I have one of those too for my bass guitars. 🥴 (it was my wife's, honest!)

I think this is quite an enigmatic intro. 😀 Welcome, whoever you are.

Are your music tastes eclectic or quite narrow?
Bobthedog replied to Barking Spiders's topic in General Discussion
I will listen to and also try to play anything except for two types: Country AND Western. 😀 -
And that is what I do with my studio monitors and hi-if speakers, also with a fine fluffy brush on a stick. I look quite like Richard Emery I do..
-
Hence the question? I do not know if it does or not.
-
I do that sometimes when alone in the house!

Perhaps a daft question, but do you remove any dust from the cones of your cab speakers? I live in a very dusty house and now only have my Barefaced Big Twin II to play through. As I try to play most days it is left uncovered and for reasons affecting all of us, the cab has not moved for at least 12 months. The cones therefore have a coating of dust. I do gently dust my studio monitors and the two basses I play regularly (also left out) require dusting / wiping every week, so why not the cab cones? Prior to lock down, I used a combo cab / amp at home the the BTII was kept in its cover when not being used.

I was more saying that is how Bergantino works it, not that Loz may have missed it on his kit.
-
My Bergantino comes with instruction to always switch on the mute button before switching off. A good simple idea - if you have a mute button.

What if there was no such thing as bass?

This and no bass would mean I would probably take up the sousaphone. Phew! -

Based on a lot of threads I do not think it would make a difference to this forum, other than perhaps a name change. 😀 -
I don't think my arms are long enough for below. 😁

Ideally 4x4, although 2x2 would do.

Like this (sadly the last time I was on stage (2019):

Where am I deleting "posted in error" from?
-
Nice. I also did not know Jimmy Somerville played bass. Cool. 😀

I had that message too. My SOP for all these things is a) check the eMail address per @Hellzero and also b) change the passwords directly on the site, not via any eMail link.

When I have had to take two basses I used two separate cases / gig bags.
-
Any of the first 6 tracks on the Coldplay X&Y album, which are numbered x1 - x6 or track 6 itself which is called x&y. No idea about Z atm.

Although I have played live, I am very much a bedroom player and unlikely to join a band going forward. I do, however, I have four basses and each is different. A Fender USA P bass, because everyone should have one. Being a 4 string it does not get played any longer, but I will keep it. A Dingwall AB1 V, wonderful and suits the more rocky type of music. A Roscoe Century Signature V that plays across most genres, although I cannot get a decent metal tone out of it and an MTD Fretless which is stunning but with the roundwounds on, very much has a fretless tone. I also have 1300 watts of Bergantino amp playing through a Barefaced Twin II just for playing at home. Why limit yourself if there is no reason to. I get pleasure from playing each of them as the mood suits, live in a detached house surrounded by sheeps and do not have to support any children. Oddly, having just typed that, I realise I have just sold off all my camera gear (two bodies, five lenses, flashes etc etc) and replaced the same with a single fixed lens camera as it seemed silly having the lot. The actual answer is if this is a hobby you enjoy, enjoy as many or as few basses as you wish / can afford and ignore what others opine.
