Linux support for Surface devices has improved massively in recent years and Ubuntu has a touch friendly GUI, the patched Surface kernel has pretty much everything working on most models. Can see what might be a dealbreaker here: https://github.com/linux-surface/linux-surface/wiki/Supported-Devices-and-Features#feature-matrix Another option would be to install the Ghost Spectre version of Windows 11, I have it on my Surface Go 1 (8/128) and it's much faster, sits at 2.6gb ram usage after boot.

A Sire V7 is still the best value gigging bass out there IMO, very versatile instruments. Good low B on the 5 strings as well.

I found one that's fits the TS100 anyway if you want it sticking in the post although the TS101 does look different, my TS100 has a little hex screw holding the tip in.

I might have a spare, I also have a TS100 so can do a test fit. Should have something that works as I still have a big bag of random screws from when I used to refurb laptops.

I lost one of the bell plate screws from my old Sire once, eventually found it days later stuck to one of the pickup pole pieces. Felt like a proper idiot. These are 2.5mm long and M2 size: https://www.accu.co.uk/large-slotted-pan-head-screws/611742-SFPL-M2-2-5-A1-BL It's a common size for NVME SSDs so you may have more luck sourcing some that way, some here: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Screws-60pcs-Mounting-Screwdrivers-Laptop/dp/B0F8VWV9LH?source=ps-sl-shoppingads-lpcontext&psc=1&smid=A1EWA2C6OH3Y0Q

A used 1000S would be the one to go for if you want an EHB, 30" scale and headless so super tiny.

Think he's been too busy painting the Danish flag on roundabouts to bother picking the chisel up tbh.

Tbh I'd just get the Ibanez Mikro, they're dirt cheap used and you can upgrade it as you see fit. They have a lot of fans on here, generally regarded as solid basses which punch well above their weight.

Tanglewood also did a 30" Elfin bass, I have one. It's loads of fun but like a lot of 30" scale basses it's still close enough in length to a full size bass to be cumbersome. It doesn't fit in a guitar gigbag like my Ibanez EHB does.

Not true. If you watch this video in its entirety you'll definitely see some brbr dengs in there.

He shoulda learned to brbr deng instead of becoming progressively worse at singing then.

Try a Genz Shuttle if you see one on the used market, I played through the 10" combo and it was super clear (a little too much for me at the time!) and more than loud enough. Highs were crisp and the lows were fat but tight. The head detaches from the combos so this might be worth checking out if you're near Herts: There's also the more powerful/larger combo here: Also worth trying a Markbass F1 or F500 if you see a used one, very neutral sounding and built to last.

Ryan's sound was so intertwined with what you expect from a Warwick, he was all over the mix in the best way imaginable so this was kinda inevitable when he switched to a more polite sounding bass. Him leaving Warwick is probably a half decent advert for them tbh, get a Thumb or sound like your nan.

Quite a nice bit of wood on that fretboard as well.
