  1. I saw the Neville Brothers live once, having been turned onto them by a Jools Holland program; they were marvellous.
  2. I hoped against hope for something funky and steeped in gumbo, but no, I was presented with something far more predictable in the UK. Disappointed.
  3. Heaven Knows I’m Miserable Now - The Smiths
  4. It was hearing a 5 string Midwestern 2 that started me down the shorty rabbit hole in the first place. Nice score.
  5. Right way round for that hybrid.
  6. A day trip by train to London may be the best course of action. Get up to Camden from Kings X or Euston (whichever your terminus is), there you’ll find a branch of Guitar Guitar, then you can go to the Aladdin’s cave that is The Gallery, a bit up the road.
  7. I’d invest in a preamp pedal. My VTDI, with the bite switch engaged, really lifts the highs of my Mustang and P, both fitted with flats. That way you have the advantage of 2 tones. I also have a Sadowsky SBP2, which works ok with those 2 basses, but is better suited to my J and MM types and isn’t as flexible as the Tech21.
  8. I always enjoyed going to The Gallery when I lived down south, a real Aladdin’s cave.
  9. There’s a new version of the Cali76 in the FS section at the moment IIRC. There is also an Empress for sale there too, which are also rather good to my ears. I use an MXR M87, which I find effective (no pun intended) and nicely transparent. A big comparison here…
  10. This is so true of my my Mustang too. It’s plainly a short scale thing. Time to upgrade the pickups on my HB ‘stangalike methinks (once I’ve got over my current Spector GAS).
  11. Recording and playing at home with a particular bass is one thing, how did you find the Mustang live? I’ve found mine delivers everywhere so far.
  12. Happiness is a Swarm Gun - The Beatles (perhaps that should be Beetles).
  13. I’m even further north than Edinburgh, so my current Spector GAS must go unsated. Good looking bass 🤘.
  14. Asked and answered in 6 minutes. The power of BC!
  15. You’d think that there’d be one in this lot https://cpc.farnell.com/c/electronic-electrical-components/fans-cooling-devices?searchref=searchlookahead
