Yes it is, turn it 180 degrees. And a palindrome is not spelt, but read the same from both ends, which means you can read in circles for infinite speeches. Yek, yek, yek.

I bought my clipper with an integrated file by my pharmacist some 30 years ago, still have it and working fine. My sister in-law is a medical pedicure : I can ask her what are the best brands for clippers or pliers...

It's indeed also an ambigram, but it's firstly a palindrome as an ambigram isn't necessarily a palindrome. Got it ?

Strange as this logo is a palindrome, so must have been well thought. I'll look in the Blue Book.

Never heard of Alain Caron ? Here's F-Bass website : http://www.fbass.com/

What about staggered locking reversed tuners ? 😁

I had a few basses with the Neuser NFS. It's a pain in the *ss to set up, but it's working great. It's based on the flat sitar bridge.

If you angle your head by 18 degrees, then there will be no need for a string tree. And by turning the piece of wood of the headstock upsidedown, you'll strengthen the weakest point of your instrument too. It's more than a win-win situation. 😉

I prefer this approach :

Carl at Lord of the Strings has sent me 3 new Fodera strings immediately. I call this impeccable service ! 👍

My first long lasting rig back in the mid 80's was a Carlsbro Sting Ray head with its matching 4x12 fitted with original Fane speakers. I toured, rehearsed, recorded, ... with this rig for around 10 years and then gave it to a young guy beginning guitar as it was a multi instrument head (just like they used to do back in the day). It was really sounding amazing, especially on fretless. Replaced by a tiny SWR that was also awesome. I also had this Peavey rig that was really good.

I ordered two sets of Fodera AJT28125 by Lord of the Strings in the Netherlands on the 19th of August 2020. I just tried to fit them today and in the two sets the A strings are completely dead (no harmonic at all, sounding like 10 years old strings) and even worse, the D string in one set has been more than badly wound (see pictures) ! At 82,60 Euros per set, it's a shame that there's absolutely no quality control. I've been using Fodera strings for years and it's the first time this happens ! I'm waiting for their reply and the one from Fodera...

Like everyone here, it's a relief to know that @John-E-Retro is well. He's such a nice guy, always kind to answer (even) the stupidest questions and always happy to help. 🙂

A pristine Mesa Boogie Powerhouse 2x12 with its original cover was sold for 550 Euros a few days ago on Bassic !?! The heavy beasts will soon be free...

Brazilian rosewood fingerboard with single coil pickup(s). And sixer fretless for sure !

I got Ville terrific Sasha Opacic AJ6 bass in a recent trade. I think this bass will end up my quest for THE fretted bass. And Ville is a top bloke and a pleasure to deal with. Cheers mate.

Looks like the pianist decided to slow down the tempo a lot. So you can hear every non-note rising and decaying perfectly. A true genius pianist ! Some purists might want to throw him stones...

Read this as a post scriptum. Luminlay warning that is on their website : "Don't buy the fake Luminlay from emma music in France ! We only sell genuine Luminlay at our website and ebay USA." I know it's a Japanese based company, but they do ship lightning fast.

To me it's a true masterpiece that sounds really good right after the final assembly, which means it will sound amazing after a few months of playing. Infinite congratulations @Andyjr1515 !
