Haha, that's the first thing I thought when I saw it. Would be an impressive explosion of balsa wood and white emulsion!

Why can't Fender release anything that looks this cool?

I recently paid £63 for an official speaker bag, I hated every minute of the buying process and clicked "confirm" with gritted teeth, facing away from the laptop and swearing under my breath. I hate upcharges on accessories that should really come free with the product at the £500+ price point. Agree on Gator stuff, great quality gear at very reasonable prices and seem to be very well though out products compared to what else is on the market too. Our keyboard player has their ABS case and even though it's bigger and heavier than his old one it's much easier to carry and wheel around.

A good tech should be able to make you a buffer preamp, there's a few schematics floating around the internet.

Not surprising, a comically backwards thinking company run by clueless idiots that produces novelty knock-offs of classic instruments. This is their latest idea, apparently the cost is $4,999: Based on that alone I can't think of a more deserving company to go bankrupt.

Dood did a good video:

If they could have crammed a DI out into that little MS60B then it would be a must buy for me.

There was a B3 for sale on one of the FB groups a few days ago IIRC.

Will be gigging my K10.2 tomorrow at a venue which I've played at for over 12 years and has the boomiest stage I've ever encountered, not spoken to a single bass player who can get a decent sound on there either. Not the best first outing but hopefully the filters on my DI can remedy that a little.

Check the Cheetos crumbs on the nut:

Pair of BFM Omni 10.5 cabs in the FS section for £210: Won't get a better deal than that if you want lightweight, great sounding cabs.

Ah I didn't know that, still should turn up this week hopefully as I'm gigging at the weekend. They were £7 cheaper than Thomann to their credit.

I ordered the tote bag for the QSC on Friday from Bax Shop and it was scheduled for delivery tomorrow, however despite being a UK company they're shipping it from the Netherlands and it still hasn't left the country so I'm not particularly impressed either.

This is near to me, crops up on my local bass searches. It's been on eBay a while now, strange combination of what looks to be solid if bizarrely implemented woodwork and clueless, hamfisted bodgery. I'm thinking the scratchplate, dodgy tuners and wonky string trees were added later.

I've asked if they'll post anyway.

I had a look at this for my daughter but it's collection only.

Just browsing Thomann for preamps and seen a GK one which looks great: https://www.thomann.de/gb/gallien_krueger_plex_preamp.htm?sid=8073c32db811bea59a77938a9360fbd3 Compression looks to have more comprehensive controls than other options, looks pretty decent. Not cheap though!

BRX not doing things by halves!

Our keyboard player used one until we got him in-ears, I usually stand behind him and it was enough for me to hear vocals and keys through. He treats his gear incredibly badly and it still works so they must be pretty well built.

I wasn't referencing you in particular btw, I'd seen this crop up a few times on Facebook already and the comments sections were a melting pot of outrage, ironically most of them didn't even know who QJ is.

The thing is Macca probably read it and laughed his a55 off.

The funniest thing about the interview is watching all the Beatles die-hards blow their nut over his comments. At the grand old age of 84 Quincy Jones may have just become the best internet troll of our generation, he can add that to his CV. Ghetto Gump indeed!

This is worth remembering and good advice, I assume you'd have to check the input sensitivity of the powered wedge and the output in dbv of the DI you're using. I didn't need to bother with this as the wedge I got has an input which can be switched to high impedance for instruments, although the Fishman can drive it at.line level just fine.
