Neuser Claudia had a keyboard in the 1990's. Misa Tri-Bass had a touch fretboard. Steve Chick has made split fret neck instruments since 1985, although split fret neck was invented by Bob Murrell in 1964 (Guitorgan with six voice polyphony). Burns did first active electronics in 1963. Ovation created piezo pickup, and Ron Hoag optical pickup in late 1960's. What's new? What should we expect to see in the near future?

An old trick, and very functional. A hint of reverb makes the distorted sound nicer and fuller (to me, at least). I am using a reverb named Nimbus, that has a HPF, and a LPF made by Taylor Livingston. Works well, also with dist/fuzz/OD.

WAGO makes nice connectors, too: https://www.wago.com/global/installation-terminal-blocks-and-connectors/inline-splicing-connector-with-levers/p/221-2411

There are no standards here. If you want, you can buy certain connectors and use the extensively. Reminder: - a hi-Z J needs a 2 pole connector - a lo-Z EMG TW has 7 wires (coils, 9 VDC) - an 8 coil humbucker needs a connector far too big - EMG connectors can be connected both ways (not good) - bigger connectors require quite a lot of space under the hood

MM starts his solo @ 2.50. I didn't make it when my teacher gave it to me 30 years ago.

It is true thay a switching PSU may be horrible, but not all are. A linear may have insufficient filtering, too. Yes, a list of functional PSUs could be very nice. As an example, I have heard nasty comments on 1spot, but my newer units have been good in smaller boards.

Why a switching does not do? If it is done well, it will work as well as a linear power.

Yes, one more which I have happily forgotten. A '91 Modulus Graphite Quantum 5 SPi custom. 17.5 mm string spacing. I sold it and got a chance to buy a black MG Genesis 5 from a gentleman here. 19 mm spacing, love it.

For me marketing has raised serious GAS a few times, but... I wanted a Steinberger L-2 a lot. They were rare, and it took quite a long time to get my hands on one. What a bulky neck profile! It felt like a thick, round double bass neck. Played it for five minutes. Now I hate it. Wal. Similar experience. Terrible neck. To me, that is. J and P look so old, straight from the 50's. Yes, they set the standard, but not my cup of tea. I do have two basses that are obvious descendats of the J, but if I had some extra money, I would remake the bodies by a luthier. Lighter, more ergonomic etc. Single cuts, well, the idea sounded good, but I am still waiting to see one that looks good.

Everything cannot be seen here, but: - upper left corner, the wire is not tinned - lower left corner, is the pot soldered through the PCBA? - soldering NE from the letter F looks suspicious

Remember that strings make a difference. If you don't get the sound you want in the first phase, prepare to spend some money on different sets.

...or less, depending on the sensitivity etc.

Would be lovely to receive some idea of your offer. Theoretical approach, scales, songs...?

I see the same question everywhere. The big problem is that all we are advertised are watts, and impedances. But not: - sensitivity (dB / 1 W @ 1 m distance) - loudness (dB) - f response (say ±9 dB) Yes, I know, this way cabs would be comparable. I suppose marketing departments hate that.

Reporting in between sets: - people have clothing that looks like stolen from tablecloths with round prints (70's party) - quite a lot of noise (hard walls) - too many are sitting in their chairs (too many cars outside) - those having fun are really having fun (Yes, tonight it is ABBA, Chic, Boney M, The Bee Gees, The Trammps...)

Sei, Overwater, ACG... I would go through the sales ads here.

This has been said here before but a 10" element means as much as a pint of beer. Wattage and sensitivity are few of the details in an equation, which result is unknown before testing, or calculating. Could you describe, why isn't there noise enough? Is the cab in a funny place - as is the g-word players super loud tube combo - and all you can hear is the ride and that g-word? If you stand beside your amp and cab, you most probably can't hear your sound. Raise a cab to a chair, and tilt it towards you. Take a few steps away to hear the overall sound of the band. Try a wireless, or an extra long cable.

Very good, thank you. Was the C bass just a 36" variation of the Original?

What are the main changes between families and series? Original, Progress, series I, IV etc.?

The last on line is an ozone cure. May help but in such a case where the smoke has been there "forever", ozone may need several hours. After a thorough cleaning, naturally.

I might call this a three band semi parametric eq. Good looking graphs, by the way.

How about experience?
