Good news! My car passed the MoT retest. This means I can still consider using my car to car pool with if it is more suitable than my travelling companion's. @pantherairsoft - if everything goes to plan and we share a ride, we could pick one amp, cab or combo from what we've got and cut down on luggage. As before, let's finalise arrangements nearer the time. I have a Laney RB3 combo (LF driver only, unlike recent versions that have an HF driver as well). I also have an Ashdown Toneman 300 combo. I'll leave the 18inch Trace cab behind unless someone specifically asks me to bring it.

Just ask Lon JR.

I love basements! Can I buy yours when you're moving on please?

That's one I'd like to see. I will wait 'till April or May to decide. I had made a tentative arrangement to car pool but a recent MoT failure* has cast some doubt as to whether I can afford to fix it by then. * If anyone can supply me with a replacement exhaust system for a Corolla T-Sport Compressor - for cost, I am willing to be their house-boy for a whole month (Any February except during leap years. Ts&Cs apply).

Nicely done Rosie. That's so much better than having eBait deliver instant gratification.

Hammerite comes in a variety of colours both smooth or hammered finish. Although it's expensive, it is quite tough as long as you have a compatible primer to support it. It's impressive when sunlight hits it so I'd imagine stage lighting would have a similar result. It is excellent for painting directly onto metal that has had the loose rust removed with a wire brush. It works well with plastics when you use the appropriate primer. I'd happily use it on a cab. It does take a while to fully cure however. You will need good ventilation too. It stinks for the first few days.

...and how long would it take you to knock me out two complete sets for my bi-amped quartet of cabs please? Five quid for labour? Heeheehee. Nah. I think that's a lovely personal touch. TE green has always been eye catching. Green Kwackers too, of course. Have you checked what they look like under UV?

Congratulations!

Welcome RD.

Yet sporting eight inches...! GWS

Welcome Charles.

Eh?

I doubt I'd be able to get a ticket without using the 'net. I've given up on the idea of going to anything that demands my logging into something. No. Just no.

I have already highlighted the treble v bass clef thing for you. May I ask? How old are you?

They'll almost certainly leave out those who only stand to serve (the song). That's natural enough. Music fans like the bits that stand out for them in some way or other. Musicians however, like to peel back the layers of production to get at the nutritious kernel that is BASS. Sorry... just had a moment then. Nurse!

Oo! Oo! Shiny!

I love that you've got this up and running. When might you start taking orders for reinforced CF bodies? A headless neck through perhaps? I have some jazz style parts waiting for a home but I'd like not to have to adhere to the "traditional" shape.

Welcome Tiger. Good luck with your therapy venture. It's a great idea.

Welcome FP. One piece of advice whether you intend to learn score or not is that this - - is a treble clef. This - - is a bass clef. (Notes for bass guitar are written on the bass clef but an octave higher than the intended pitch).

Welcome Ryan.

You can also nail jellies to the ceiling but it is complicated because of the hoards of squealing kiddies milling around the base of your stepladder clutching empty dessert bowls while you do it. Point taken however.

When user serviceable domestic mains plugs were the norm screw clamped terminals made it possible for average home owners to rewire plugs. Back in the day, there were several types of mains plug and it was necessary to be able to change them to suit the type of socket at the user's home. People are no longer expected to do this so plugs are now crimped and sealed. Crimping is widely used in electronics. It's particularly useful in avionics when aluminium wire is used to save weight. You can't solder aluminium. Hooray for crimping!

Welcome Laura.
