@Duroc17 I generally use the middle or middle and neck but sometimes use the neck only. At the moment I'm just using a 5 string Charvel as the new band I'm in has a few songs that go down to D but its early days yet. If I am going to be playing the fiver with this band I might treat myself to a Mercalli 5 string.

My next gig will probably be Khruang Bin at the Hammersmith Odeon on Nov 20th. I bought these tickets back in March, I think; apparently, they will be available to view on the Eventim app a couple of days before the gig. This crusty old fart would much prefer to have a small piece of card with 'Khruang Bin Nov 20th Eventin Apollo' written on it.

As a teenage punk I followed Adam and the Ants around the country. Then Dog eat dog got released and Adam and the Ants descended into a shiite pop band followed by teenyboppers. I think he still plays the odd song from 78-9, like 'Fat Fun' and 'Beat my Guest', but I guess he will mainly be playing the stuff he came out with while dressed as a pirate or highwayman. I wonder how full the Roundhouse is going to be on Nov 9th?

I'm not normally keen on sunburst finishes but this one looks really nice, congrats! Let us know how the wiring proceeds.

Lovely bass, congrats. I've never played one of the Reverend semi-hollow basses, let us know what its like.

Nice! So there is a second GK Fusion/Barefaced 12" rig in Barnet! Below is my practice set up.

@mic4ael bought a Barefaced One10 from me. Very straightforward and smooth transaction, I would be more than happy to deal with him again.

I've had a couple of Cumgirl8 videos in my Youtube feed. I quite like them. They are playing at the Underworld in Camden Town in December, I'm tempted, especially as I am now in possession of a free over 60s Oyster card.

No it doesn't. Americans might experience '60 cycle hum' but us Brits are the beneficiaries of 230 volt 50 Hz mains. Ok, Pedant hat off...Good review! Enjoy your new bass.

Congrats! Finally! So, how close to a Stingray does it get, sonically, at least with the humbucker?

Low end Lobster did a video about machine heads that are a direct replacement for Sire tuners. They were pretty much sold out in most places I checked, when I researched a few months ago.

For those interested in such things, the weights of the Z series basses that Sweetwater hold: 2x Z3 4 string Rosegold: 9lb 3oz, 9lb 4oz 1xZ3 5 string Rosegold: 10lb 7oz 4x Z3 5 string Blue: 9lb 2oz, 9lb 6oz, 9lb 6oz, 10lb 2xZ7 4 string Mint: 9lb 6oz, 9lb 8oz 1xZ7 5string Mint: 10lb 1oz 1xZ3 5 string Antique white: 11lb 6oz The Z3s above all have mahogany bodies and the Z7s are alder

I would just like to say there should be no place for gear racism on this forum. I haven't got any white basses, so I'm definitely not a gear racist.
