Oh, serious industrial racking Pete. Thanks for the name.

I've seen a couple of pics on here where people have a load of hard cases lined up against the wall, with shelves above. I'd like to replicate that, but probably won't be able to fix shelves to the wall. Anyone got designs on how to build a freestanding thing?

I hope he’s sitting down when he opens the link!!

Welcome Doug. I studied in Edinburgh and very much enjoyed the music scene there. Even played a few gigs. 20 years ago now, mind.

Here's mine. Acquired from here are few years ago, and fettled by Martin. It's early - serial number is "9". And the seller passed on to me an old Guitarist magazine which had a review of this very bass. It has the Schack circuit with dip-switches for EQ frequency. The two little black dots near the bridge are 3-position coil-tap switches. Oh, and it has LEDs in the neck-edge fret markers 😎 There is lots to love about this bass. It plays beautifully, and produces a huge range of sounds. As others have said, the necks are like nothing else. Two minor gripes: 1) The bridge has narrow slots for the strings to pass through. I bought a set of DRs to put here (the strings it has are awful) and the overwinding at the base means they don't fit. So now I don't know whose strings to buy! Any ideas? 2) It doesn't hold its tuning as well as my other instruments. This one I can forgive, though. All my other instruments are bigger, heavier, tankier things.

The reason they stay in your ears better is they are a fundamentally different design. The old (and still available!) wired ear pods were designed to be cradled by the outer ear. The airpods pro 2 have a squidgy rubber tip that you jam into your ear canal. The airpods (not pro) have the same type of design as the old ear pods.

After a few months of scuttlebutt, it's here! https://www.quilterlabs.com/collections/bass-amplifiers/products/bass-block-v803 My first impression is they've learned some lessons about making a radical-ish amp. They've kept a few of their really unique radical ideas (I don't understand the implementation, but the power section sounds like something quite unique.) but they've made some things more palatable, or ordinary, like they EQ section. I hope this sells well. I love my 800.
