No However if you do buy tickets for the tour then they don't count. Unless you are also using her PA in which case it's in the signal chain so it's a Tier 2 fail.

Very neat. 👍 How big is the stand? It looks quite small, and I'm thinking if it was too small then the cab would just tilt over backwards as the centre of gravity must be near but above the middle of the speaker

Reform School? Welcome aboard @RobD !

Welcome aboard! You'll get used to the feeble attempts at humour. Or they will drive you mad and you'll go senile and join in. That's what happened to me. It could be worse: visit Talkbass where their idea of humour is to not actually light the flamethrower.

Does anyone other than @rwillett and @SamIAm have the slightest idea what language they are talking? A truly stunning bass though - I'm looking forward to when Rob takes orders, as I have a VBASS with a GK-B hex pickup setup that I want to permanently install in a bass, and this would absolutely look the biz!

Awesome, as always!

Never heard of the Culture novels. If I were to read one, what should it be?

The Millennium Falcon, edge on?

A bit late for this suggestion, but could you make the additional frets from a different coloured wire? It's going to be great when you sell it with the line "cutaway body, access to the 38th fret"

Very nice indeed.

Welcome aboard!

Welcome aboard, what brings you to BassChat? Just remember- You can check out any time you like, but you can never leave. 😉

The best of plus the last two albums should do you. Foo Fighters are one of those bands I admire more than I actually listen to, but I bet they are one hell of a live act.

Duplicate Post. As in this was a duplicate post, not a band called Duplicate Post.

When I play badly our PA guy has been known to mute me. In a loving spirit of fellowship of course 😅

Every sound engineer has a bad day - get one of the congregation to say the bass was too low ;-). If you have a digital desk then ask them to put limiters on the foldback outputs to protect the band - we had exactly the same experience as you did and the sound engineer at the time scurried off to the manual and set everyone up with volume limiters.

If you shot the video on a new iPhone then it defaults to a stupidly high resolution and 60fps frame rate. I think there is a settings change up in the top right where you can change the rate. Android will depend on the phone, but Samsung has an option under Advanced settings to use HEVC, which should reduce the size.

Your local school is getting a serious piece of kit. 👍

I hope that isn't a breading pair...

Great song - weird video! Listened to John Oats talking about this film on The Rockonteurs, and had to check it out.

I gave up the Stig alter-ego a while back. Turns out the client CEO prefers consultants to present to the board wearing the more conventional jacket and trousers rather than a loincloth. I would have played the diversity card, but I don't have one.

I'm still in. I should have bought a nice acoustic 5 string that was on here earlier in the year, but didn't and someone else has a fab instrument. As I have only played once in 6 months I can't really justify anything else. Possibly a set of IEMs next month. Maybe. Meh...

If we were to create a foot-operated device that took BC comments about purchases on this thead, and forced them through some sort of distortion, compression and other manipulation so that the purchase could conceivably be valid under these rules, would that be a pedant board?

Most of us are probably adults. We're all extremely thankful you're not our Mum. I mean - just imagine the press coverage 😲

His appearance on The Rockonteurs podcast is a great listen, very very funny. Especially his story of playing the piano at school.
