How many dB attenuation can I get with one Jelly Belly? Will two Jelly Beans double the attenuation?

It blew the felt off of a third of my workshop roof 😞

On Friday the second song on the setlist was 'Walk in my Shadow'. Alex called 'Walk in My Shadow'. Not long after, having played a bar of Walk in My Shadow in Gm, I seamlessly transition to The Hunter in Am which is what Alex and Paul are playing...

You've seen the colour of my earwax!

Now I have decision paralysis!

The IEM thing made me ask, but I am thinking of investing in earmoulded plugs.

Lots of licenced Fender merch turns up in Tesco and Asda, decent quality at good prices. I just happen to be wearing this...

In six month's time the 'super portable' rig will be the size of an Ampeg stack with all the add-ons...

I bought a new handle for the case I use for my Performer about ten years ago. I finally fitted it a few months ago ...

Back in the day when they did the 'heavy' version of Matty Groves it could be a bit wild.

Would ear protection count as a fail? Seems a bit shortsighted if we disincentivise safety.

First gig of the year last night. Bluesfire at the Bush. Couple of mates of the guitarist and the drummerxs brother in, plus several familiar faces. Free pint of Guinness. Had a 'bucket' of sweet potato fries 🤗 one day I'll get there early enough to sample their pizza. Experimented with a bit of mid boost, and I got positive comments on the tone. AVII, Orange Terror and AT212 slim. A good gig but I had the wrong inserts in my earplugs for the first set, so took them out after two songs. Used the right ones for set two. Made a few fluffs but nothing too bad. My technique has improved a little recently, made a few changes to what I play. Got a couple of compliments 😁 Back at 1pm 😴

You should support Kneecap...

Basschat motto right there...

I have a very similar project happening soon. It's actually an aquarium hood from 8mm ply though...

Goid job it isn't a bass! Saw this in a pawn shop yesterday... put of by bolt on neck and no probuckers. Thing us I have an Embassy already which does the same job...

Still using this.

They do softwood, marine, hardwood with birch or oak facing. The marine stuff has no voids.

Pretty wild but I have to ssy it looks a bit like a migraine! Glad the colours aren't cyan and magenta!

They sell different grades if you poke around you can find the type and quality you need.

And you never know you could end up in a folk/funk fusion power trio ...

Dosh delivered 😄 SUGGESTION: As some of us might be able to come down on Saturday evening. Is there a Basschatter playing a gig nearby on the 10th somewhere near affordable accommodation (e.g. a Travelodge)? Would be good to make the bash into a mini break.

Bit like my 4x10 combo. I hope to gig it again some time just because...
