    Does he realise that putting the tuners at crazy angles devalues the instruments?

    I always used roto 66 swing bass. Now I have Fender nickels on most of my basses. Not as bright but keep a vintage sound longer.

    Most useful? Putting on Planet Rock and trying to play along to as many songs as possible, by ear, for months. Least useful? A teacher I asked about improving my technique who wanted me to learn theory I pretty much knew already.
  4. Stub Mandrel
    This.

    Have you tried Mach3. I know several people who use it.
  6. Stub Mandrel
    No I’m interested to see more. I have a design for a scope with a crayford focuser on Thingiverse.com

    I understand that Creality have launched a printer using four reels of pla to print up to 16 colours, presumably by mixing them in some sort of combination extruder. I guess four striking colours and twelve muddy grey-browns...

    What more could you expect from the company who's aesthetic* combines bass guitars with "intimate toys"? *I use the word advisedly.

    I have to learn 'This One Kiss' 🤢🤮

    I fear a quieter fan may be is because it doesn't shift enough air.

    I recently heard O'Neills are cancelling loads of gigs

    Our vocalist has a reference mic he uses with the digital desk. We have to stay schtumm while the system puts out white noise on each and then both channels and automatically adjusts the system to match the room acoustics. I am instinctively sceptical but it does seem to get good results.

    Fairport Convention have got through about 25 members and although Simon Nichol was in the original lineup, he was absent or many years. No one seems to get exercised about this.

    My dad rented out TVs in the 70s, and that was what most people wanted back then. Perhsps because real life was monochrome...

    He should never have parted ways with Rod Stewart...
  16. Stub Mandrel
    I don't think that works for rock. Ten Years After parted ways Alvin Lee. While he was a charismatic front man, all three others were exceptional musicians. Queen are finally looking at recording new music, and kept going without Freddy - the most charismatic front man of all.

    I use it as my practice rig with a 50W Joyo Badass. Sounds great, just not loud.

    Not bought much this year, all good: Sire P10. Gokka orange-coloured pedal board. Demonfx Pearl White autowah (Snow White clone). So only two pics needed!

    Took my Elf and PJB C2 to the bass bash. It can just keep up with an unamplified drummer at rehearsal, but not a bass bash...

    I was going to bring my innovative new Fender, but then I realised it was a reissue of a 60+-year-old model.
  21. Stub Mandrel
    I said Antigua counted as an innovation (first turdburst guitars).
  22. Stub Mandrel
    Thank you. It almost had a Pentangle feel.
  23. Stub Mandrel
    Thomann's specs are more honest than most (they even state the '600W cabs' are 15W RMS). That said, I suspect the perfomance figures are largely 'theoretical'.
  24. Stub Mandrel
    And a Bluesfire gig too!
  25. Stub Mandrel
    We've made our next batch of gigs into a Tour of South Wales!
