  1. Fair play, Olivia Rodrigo is owning it.
  2. Great band. I shall watch it later. I miss Muzz.
  3. It sucks. But if you are reading this and you do not have it, then get some proper earplugs now when you "don't need them". The only thing that it will stop you doing is writing about how much it sucks on internet forums. Because it truly does suck, and it is avoidable. £140 odd.
  4. I like to think that if nothing else, I am consistent
  5. Yep, I probably should not have sold it. Ah well. The search for guitar on Google photos threw up more basses than I needed to own.
  6. I had one once. It was a lovely thing but it was a single pickup bass and I did not do single pickup basses at the time. I would take it back now
  7. I play weekly in church and thought I was relatively match fit with regard to playing. I took a 13 hour light ents TV job today. It turns out that I am not. The problem with the church stuff is that I am making up my own lines using chord charts and vibing with the (really good) drummers. So it is all good. However, today was much more involved with regard to reading. There was one solo fill high up the neck which I managed to nail down in practice but when the red light was on I made THE most spectacular dogs dinner of it. There is zero chance that will ever be broadcast. So my reading is certainly not match fit. I also did some Double Bass work there. I have not played DB in anger for a few years. WOWZERS, it is hard physical work. Actually getting the instrument to respond in the way I want takes a lot more hand strength than I have at the moment. I mean, I did stuff, but I am knackered now and I am going in for round 2 tomorrow. So I guess I am going to have to practice. Ugh.
  8. I used to (and probably still would if I had the vinyl) love his playing on Barbera Thompson's stuff. He knew what was right.
  9. To put it another way, it would be so monumentally wrong for everything I do. But with a B,I could not stop myself. I would be all over it like a bad rash.
  10. Very interesting. I have often thought about putting comedy bids across a bunch of stuff at Gardiner Holgate and seeing what happened. I had not thought it through far enough to realise I could undercut their lowest starting price. That is a proper niche (in a good way for us) instrument for an auction house. But clearly a very nice piece of kit. So you have to roll in to pick stuff up? They will not courier? I suppose not, there is all sorts of packing etc.
  11. Mutter mutter 5 string mutter cough mutter
  12. I love this sub forum!

    East Pre Amps

    Happy days. Mr East makes exceedingly fine preamps.
  14. Amp placement is also a factor. Having it projecting at the back of the instrument can be an issue. Not always, but can. If you stand to the side of it, that might alleviate immediate problems.
  15. That looks interesting. Still available? Thanks
  16. This is the content we want.
  17. Top nick. 91% battery. Kept in a hard shell case. I can do pictures if you really want Fresh install when the time comes. Fancy it, you know you do. Are you worth it? You are so worth it. When Apple introduced the M1, it included 16 billion transistors, just above the 15.8 billion used in the A15 Bionic chip. For the new chips, Apple decided to take advantage of the size benefits and think bigger. The M1 Pro is a chip with 33.7 billion transistors, more than double the original's count.
  18. Sorry, I am like a cracked record here. It is a flightcase. There is no need to pack it. Let the couriers do their worst. Let them see it as a challenge. It will hurt them more than it will hurt the flightcase.
  19. My 66J and 73P have brass nuts. At least I know they lived a little
  20. That's just vulgar!
  21. I have no input of any value other than EXCITING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
