    Balls.

    I feel a bit stupid running two threads on this, but I figure I cannot be the only person who finds this interesting. https://www.basschat.co.uk/topic/473275-not-a-build-surprised-but-a-woodwork-question/page/2/#comments

    Caren Carpenter. Delivery that smooth takes lots of power.

    Zero shame in seeking comfort. Zero shame in making your instrument work for you. I know for a fact that other people pick up my basses and think "yeah, not for me". Do I care? Not even a little bit.

    Newtone round core nickels are my lower tension strings of choice. Thomastik Jazz Rounds are even lower tension - but mind bendingly expensive.
  6. Owen
    If you get 3.6mm x 27mm then the tone will be more better. This is a joke.

    We have all been there. You are doing much better than some of us have managed.

    On reflection, they are actually made out of ebony. The next ones will be rosewood for a different bass.
  9. Owen
    Here are the 5 finished ones. They are made out of rosewood. I have yet to actually get my hands on them and fit them so time will tell. But he does have one of the machine heads so I presume they will be fine.

    PROPER OLD SCHOOL!!!!!!!

    You could easily cope with an Omni Bass. I had a 5 string fretted one some time ago. I should not have sold it. Strory of my life.

    Matt, I would be a fool to refuse. Let's take this to PM.

    Rewind what is in there? Catswhisker Pickups.
  14. Owen
    Good job.
  15. Owen
    ..... are heinously expensive and I only need 4. Can anyone point me at an alternative?
  16. Owen
    Anyone tried those "whack one of these lenses on your phone and make it super zoom" doobries? Honestly, if it functioned then we would be good to go.

    I have a 5 string set of these. They are my faves.

    Thanks. We used a DSLR at the beginning but it would shut after a given amount of time and if I could find something which would pan and zoom from our control software that would be the bomb.
  19. Owen
    Thanks. That is the going rate for the grown up stuff. I am just looking around to see if there is anything which is "ok-ish" because it is bound to be a step up from our iPods and they are doing what we need just fine.
  20. Owen
    Yep, paying more always gets nicer. However, we are trolling along happily with phone/iPod cameras so thinking there has to be something out there which will fit the bill without a massive bill.

    We are now only going out on zoom. However, I think a PTZ camera we could mount under the balcony would tidy things up. I am more than aware that I could easily spend 4 figures and up on one, but the reality is we are doing absolutely fine with phone or iPod cameras on tripods so do not need the greatest doobrie in the world. Any real world suggestions? Spending under 300 would be great. Ta.

    To get back on topic, I changed a bridge once because I had to know. At best? 5% difference and that was negative. With a Baddass bridge. For the record, changing my EMG preamp from 9v to 18v was also a collosal "Is that it? Really?" event.

    This state also accounts for the fact that they have a musky aroma about them becuase hygine is not their top priority. I have students who are living that same way.

    Apparently Koalas are not drunk. They are permanently stoned. What they eat (eucalyptus?) sends them, maaaaaan.
  25. Owen
    It looks like this one has been rolled in glitter though.
