A midi controller keyboard and a copy of Garage Band running on a 2nd hand iPhone. Job done.

5. If the strings do get a bit "draggy" you can run your finger down the OUTSIDE of your nose and take some of the oil between your nostril and your cheek which just gives you some slidy-ness.

I will confess to having quite a history with these. I have learnt a few things. 1. In my experience, eventually the flobbadob (copyrigh HJ above) strings settle down and are ok. 2. The solid body ones do not cut it as a DB-alike. You need that acoustic body to give the thud. 3. Fretless ones do make it even easier to DB. 4. For me, the scale length thing ceased to be and issue within about 90 seconds. Give me a second and I will dig out the proof of my love for the concept.

Totally. You could buy a 65" 4K TV and have a fabulous time.

Cabled hearing loops are comedy gold for unexplained feedback.

It might be tempting to use one of those doobries which enables you to run multiple monitors. I am running one with an M1 MBP. When it works it is great. It does not work all the time and I have to unplug and plug stuff multiple times. So that is a non starter.

You will be getting quite the monitor for £500!

Some pieces of kit make strange noises when connected to stuff if they are not on. Is it to do with earthing? Dunno.

Such a fuddy-duddy. Get with the new, Jack.

I am trying to work out how to get wear by the scratchplate there.

Lots of good things in one place there.

I hate managing files on an iPad. It is just SUCH a pain. Files on OSX? I have never, ever even thought about it.

It does look like a cracking project though!

It should all be in one place so that I can feel properly inadequate about my skillset without having to browse through multiple forums!

I am not sure how I feel about wandering into a forum I don't come to as often and finding this juicy project. Are there others in here? Should they all not be in the Build Diaries forum? How can I be expected to keep track of EVERYTHING like this?
