  1. Ooh 🍿time IMHO there is a small difference these days but its minimal at best and not worth the extra ££ mex instruments are IME fine in quality now, I see US as not consistently well made as they should be for the price asked
  2. Should I ever have free time before I’m old and grey 🤔I’d actually like to do both
  3. No - that’s for fine tuning the drop. There’s a lever on the side of the bridge 🌉
  4. Yes I really do get by with two basses, a single zoom and a little amp 🤔
  5. I’ve got my bass out of it’s cupboard storage after a mere four years of non stop diy on a money pit house. Leftfield choice … I’m learning Surrender by U2 - it has slap, harmonics and a good finger style groove also and is not over-challenging to my very out of practice fingers. Now I just need to recall how to count to 4 … just out of shot to left, right and behind (mostly) is just some of the kid-detritus that I’ve yet to shift on eBay …
  6. But Andy, it has too many (and much too weedy) strings; it’s a guitar 🤮…if this was a rodent it would be a black rat with ysenia pestis
  7. How about people Get ready, by Curtis mayfield ?
  8. Believe I’m right in saying Simon cox is the late Oldgit, from whom I bought a lovely Japanese jazz. A very nice man
  9. Possibly - it’s been sitting in a gig bag in the cupboard so it’s not like it’s had trauma I’ll open it up tonight and have a look plugged in so I’ll know if it clears
  10. You mean inside the bass ? I’ve tried two different cables
  11. Can you translate ? Even my Babelfish is scratching its fin on its head trying to figure that out
  12. Addendum - when played acoustically is very clear so not a badly cut nut, poor string winding on peg, high fret etc
  13. Is there to be a ladies toilet too ? 😛 not in the slightest bit jealous, oh no …. 😞
  14. Guitars? I see nothing defective, stunted or weedy here
  15. Can someone recommend which 3 band eq model from John east you’re talking about ? I think the one on my vintage EST96a has died
  16. I have this active bass and I got it out of storage on Friday. I replaced the battery. I put it straight to amp through two or three different cables and it buzzes on all strings when played - worse on lower strings does the same if sent straight to a zoom b2.1u and headphones Is the preamp burned out somehow, I’m wondering, and what would I replace it with ?
  17. I really hope that’s a light relic finish - if not, you got b-stock
  18. The tape is a dead giveaway that it’s red WhiteTape.equals(body.Color.RED).
  19. So “cliffhanger of the day” award goes to ?
