    You can use any 8 ohm cabinet rated for ~ 150Watts plus. The choice of cabinet will affect the tone, a matching Markbass cabinet is likely to have the smallest change in tone.

    Presumably they'd have to make a decision for themselves, but I'm sure that's unlikely.

    When my farmers strike, this is the only stool softener I need:

    It isn't persistent. Unlike the damn tree-pollen sniffle I get every March...

    Common sense suggests they won't make an announcement until they are forced to close by a ban on gatherings, so they aren't liable to pay for the venue hire.

    Swine! You beat me to it...

    You wound your own PUPs didn't you? Did you make sure the magnets in each PUP were opposite polarity? One north up, one north down? Check they are as it is part of the humbucking effect.

    I'll have you know there's only ONE Big Stubby 'round here.

    That's the way all mine went back in the days when I 'played' guitar.

    No bass, no Bootsy, in sight but still epic!

    They will come together when we have to resort to Izal Medicated, it's rough as a badger's.

    Its a Squier Standard, but I just realised I measured without taking the bridge cover off so it probably is 19mm... Sorry! No I mean the Fender Performer from 1987. I haven't got it handy to measure, but I do know it's 53mm at the 20th fret compared to 63mm for a jazz, so 10mm less neck(!) there could mean it's even less than 3x3mm less at the bridge (scaling from a photo suggests 15mm but I'm not 100% sure). Possibly the skinniest-necked bass ever made by a major manufacturer?

    You should try my Fender performer IIRC it's about 16mm. A standard Jazz is 18mm.

    I hope he's not wearing inauthentic rip-offs of Converse trainers there...

    Yep! Just cut and paste it - and put your name in at number 5! That gap is winding me up like no business!
  19. Stub Mandrel
    NO! I can't believe you sold a sparkly one!

    I like a bit of formica 🙂

    Clearly it's an embarrassment for you and upsets you every time you look at it. This is a normal reaction. Luckily there's a simple solution, just pop it in a decent hard case and send it to 'Luthier's Anonymous' c/o mythe address I will send you in a pm...

    They really should have thought twice about the nappies though...

    You look on the verge of collapse! 😧

    There was a tiny (probably free) festival, somewhere in Mid-Wales, near Tregaron in either 1984 or more likely 1985. All I can remember (that I'm willing to out on the record) is that it was well attended by persons of an 'alternative lifestyle' nature and we all got searched by Mister and Mrs Plod on the way out. Can anyone suggest what it might have been? Google suggests it might have been the Cantlin Stone Free Festival. http://www.ukrockfestivals.com/cantlin-stone-free-fest80.html

    From what I can make out of the scratchplate markings it seems pretty similar. Look at the pale areas near the volume control.
