    First I've heard of this! Will there be a Basschat presence/meetup?
  2. Stub Mandrel
    Rumbles are a good solid sounding amp at reasonable weight.

    Was expecting a quiet period but picked up a couple of gigs in late January.

    I have a strap for each bass, chosen onveither aesthetics, practicality (wide and or padded ones for heavier basses), fender ones for fendahs and squiers or just on a whim or because. And for my guitars, ukulele and mandolins. And some spares.

    I have more straps than basses...

    I'm in ... glad I paid for a Brassmaster before Christmas! Three possible failures on the horizon: Would like to try a Spectracomp. Fancy making pedals... may need to buy some bits. Do fancy a new case for my Sire...
  7. Stub Mandrel
    Probably!

    Can you file flats and use pliers on it
  9. Stub Mandrel
    Well done @neepheid! 2025 could be easier, as I may be skinter...

    Yesterday got an email saying the Brassmaster will be delayed by at least a week 😞

    Indeed. My comment was purely on the aesthetics (no-one would claim Alembics are anything other than excellent instruments to play), but aesthetics are very personal. In truth there are some many good basses out there of different shapes and styles, it should be possible for anyone to find one they like to play and see.

    I was a Sea Scout so was taught to hank a rope properly. So now, when I coil a lead, every loop gets a little half-twist.

    The best invention for musicians, ever!
  14. Stub Mandrel
    Ah. That's 👍

    It looks like the Sire headstock, which I like but many despise!

    What's up

    I would but the tiny distance between inaudible and rehearsal volume on my amp makes it so hard to set a sensible volume.

    You need to play to a standard to join a band. Generally, staying in a band is about building relationships and a team spirit. Bendricks Rock seems particularly healthy as we share a warped sense of humour (how many bands have a tagline like "Keep It Moist".

    Rics, Alembic (with point on the end), Gus, some Vox models, G&L with a pip on the headstock, white bongo. Just personal prejudice and otherwise as meaningless as dismissing all Precisions.

    At thevtime I felt that the new romantics had the best shirts.

    Actually some good news ... the guitarist from the blues band has picked up a gig on the 23 Jan. Good news - 7pm to 9pm Bad news - Womanby Street Cardiff. Worst parking in the city.
  23. Stub Mandrel
    God that's awful 😞

    Just found a photo from our guitarist's other band's last gig... Capital Radio's firework night. I'm not jealous...
  25. Stub Mandrel
    That's taught us.
