  1. Aha! this explains your wonderful past refins.
  2. Never mind the build, I'm curious about the room with its industrial raised mesh flooring!
  3. Me - paleontologist. Just needed to dig deeper than Nik.
  4. Twice Removed From Yesterday, Robin Trower.
  5. I don't much like the Beatles but that was tantalisingly brilliant. So carefree. Even Lennon.
  6. Astonishing. Weight was the single reason I stopped looking at Yamaha BBs. I wonder how many you'd have to buy and return before finding a lightweight one again?
  7. A BB435 was 8lbs?! How unusual is this?
  8. Mississississippi (never quite know when to stop) Queen, Mountain.
  9. I was kind of forced into getting a 5er when I started playing with the Bon Jovi tribute as a few of Hugh McDonald's basslines incorporate notes below a low D. Hand on heart I prefer playing a 4 strings but do find playing across the neck on the 5er useful, especially for getting a fatter timbre to the note. So rather than chop and change basses I play the 5er all the time with the Jovi band and 4 strings with the blues trio so I get to enjoy both More opportunity for GAS, too.
  10. So we are! Didn't spot that
  11. Glad he didn't try it with anything larger than a squash. I feel we've had a marrow escape.
  12. Not necessarily, there are short scale EB-3s, too. I did a bit of reading when in the market for one recently. Plus of the course the depthless knowledge on here was invaluable. But, yes, the extra pickup at the bridge extends the tone palette. If you don't need or want that then there is less to 'go wrong' with an EB-0 Only you know that.
  13. I can't see it listed in the classifieds? I just bought an '80 B-301 and love it to bits.
  14. I've just done this today. I've been seriously considering selling a Gibson Thunderbird that I bought early this year. I got it out of the case to check the serial number (2011) then noodled around. Now I'm changing my mind.
  15. Part 1. I had a set of molded earplugs made a few years ago but even with a low attenuation filter I found the exclusion too much and stopped using them. Part 2. For IEMs I have a set of the KZ S10s but never found any tips that worked well. Earlier this year I had a bit of a light bulb moment and joined those two dots - I stuck the KZs into the molded earplug with clear silicone mastic - it fitted nicely into the hole where the filter slotted in. Worked a treat - makes the KZs sound even better and I get absolutely nil bleed from outside noise.
