You mean so people would forget? :-)

Now that is badass!

Why would a Fender be labelled "Designed and backed by Fender"?

Living in Twickenham is expensive.

I've got a G2M and it's a bit hit and miss. I have Roland PK-5A pedals, but a 12-Step would be cool too. For a bass guitar synth, the EH Synth9 is pretty good, if you want its canned voices.

Squier neck means that selling it as a "fender bass guitar" is upbranding.

Yep - I get it all the time; my searches are "fender -(squire,squier)" and I still have to sort out dross. The problem now is that I don't trust things straight off anymore.

Squier being sold as "Fender"...

Looks like the dog has walked over it with mucky paws.

I've had a couple of Rock Basses and they probably weren't for me. The last one did have a fantastic bottom-B note though; I got it like this: And sold it like this: The one on ebay is waiting for an opening bid of £100, but then I'd have to add £14.70 postage to it, which would be probably the max I'd pay.

I've currently got Dean Markley 46-102 on mine, but I'm swapping back to Rotosound 40-100 gauge when I next change.

I remember he used to do a bass column in one of the magazines in the 70s.

I was greedy - I offered £350, but was declined.

Hmmm - I've got money to spend...

Where is it?

Where's the box to enter the code?

I guess you missed the holiday thread - it was fun! It ain't a Fender and the Fender trademark ain't licensed.

So, you have to establish the context of the question...

In computers, 1 + 1 = 10.

Sure, you can choose your camp; I think I'm in the two legs good, three legs bad one. Your example of the triangle was based on the premise that a chord is defined as at least 3 notes (a triad), and was thereby self-fulfilling; in contrast, mine of two eyes says you can see how far away something is without having to actually walk there. Interestingly, further regarding the triangle and maths, the mathematical definition of a chord is a line which passes through two points... Going back to written definitons of a musical chord, I can see that the number "three" in definitions of a chord is often preceded by the qualifier "usually", thereby hinting that it is not a hard rule. Is there anything else in chord definitions, other than the number of notes which define its characteristics? For instance, if you were to take any definition and replace the words "two" or "three" with "multiple", what else does it say about what makes a chord? eg. Does it have to uniquely identify the key you are playing in?

Yes - selectively picking the ones which say three, but excluding those which say two; that's the point I was hinting at. Of course, few analogies do hold true under all permutations, but my point (again) was that saying a shape has to have at least 3 sides to be two-dimensional may be true, but is as relevant to music as the theory of dinosaurs which states that they are very thin at one end, very fat in the middle, and very thin at the other end.

Hmmm - where is it defined as "three or more" notes? Saying "unison" and "interval" have names doesn't really matter, as three notes has a name too, ie. a "triad". I'm not sure that the triangle analogy is correct, though it does lend itself to supporting the "3 or more" perspective; you could equally come up with other things like "how many eyes do you need to perceive depth".

Well, you wouldn't get much of the quilt!
