    In my present band we tend to act as a band when it comes to in and out. I have also been in a band where the singers would expect the lads to do all the work. We don't get out much so I still find it funny to set up and pack down.

    For many years I found this song stupid - but now I think that it actually carries a message. We have to keep ourselves going. If not by playing bass then try another instrument, if not by playing, try consuming. Taking up a social dance (salsa/disco/tango/...) is also a great way to approach music - and may even give you something you find beneficial when you get back into playing the bass.

    If you don't get feed back when writing Thomann you can also call their hotline on phone ... If you talk nice to them they will be nice to you 😉

    I mostly have big parcels delivered to my workplace. I once had to return a guitar to Thomann. They sent a label for a transport meaning that I had to send it via packet shop. I checked with them and facing the same kind of misery as you describe. I then asked Thomann for a different label/voucher. I had no problems with that, really, and the packet was sent and picked up (by probably DHL) at my workplace. If Thomann hasn't changed their policy it shouldn't be a problem. The QA issues sound bad. Up to now I heard mostly good about Sire but apparently they all can fail. I was gassing quite hard over the SBMM short scale but after reading of the big variation in quality I concluded that it was not worth the risk. I still use my cheap Squier for short scale. It wasn't perfect but in that price range (1/4 of the SBMM) it is easier just to shrug and do the fret level and replace the output jack.

    Wish you a good recovery. Thanks for answering.

    Thanks. The factory is a piezo driver. I use the tc also for keyboard so I miss a tweeter. I will look at p.audio tweeters they seem magnetic so I will need a different crossover. Do they have a webshop?

    Hey, @Rayman. Have you tried the Eminence tweeter in your BG250-115?

    The fingerboard wood seems to differ. JB40 is Pau ferro JB75 is Laurel. IDK if that has any practical value.

    I am. Recently my tinnitus has mostly been fed and maintained by sound guys. Recommendation to OP turn general volume down and use good ear plugs. I most pubs I have been to people (audience) also like being able to conversate. Not necessarily at a high intellectual level, but still ... If the audience cant hear you they will make you aware. How well you can distinguish the different voices and instruments with plugs depends on the quality of ear plugs. Well fitted individual molded plugs with changeable filter works for me.

    Besides taking the dog for a walk before Ragnarök I have worked with the timing and accentuation of some disco bass lines and I spent some good time seeing "Closer The The Edge" while my loved significant other is at work. Due to the working schedule we will have our new years dinner tomorrow. "Closer To The Edge" has nothing to do with Yes or U2 but is about IoM TT. Nice view if you are into those kinds of things 🙂. Happy New Year.

    I use a toneprint in my tc amp. Works quite well.

    I have the 5 string Mikro (GSRM25) as well. I like it. I would like to try other strings. Not many 5 string sets around for this scale.

    A lightweight instrument body adds to the tendency to neck dive. My SS Jaguar does not dive but it weighs some 4.2kg.

    If You always travel to the same destination you could also just have a bass of your preferred model stationary there.
