I get this too. The bottom end disappears. As suggested a low pass bypass might help but that's not easy to do. My Joyo Double Thruster has a 'blend' control so can mix the distortion and the clean signal.

Steps and S-Club7.

You should get out more.

Agree with John Taylor and John Deacon.

Actually with lightweight powered speakers you can get away with a low cost 4chanel mixer. Doesn't really need to break the bank, be very complicated or large.

That Mark bloke off Level 42.

Missed Wyman. He'd score highly on Pointless.

I'm struggling: Sting John Entwistle Paul McCartney Gene Simmons? Suzi Quatro The bloke with the beard who plays with Phil Colins. (Lee Sklar) Roger Waters?

... that the general public would name when stopped in the street and asked.

You think if you asked the man in the street to name some female bass players they'd even have heard of them, let alone name them off the top of their heads.

I did sit down once and try to make a list of Bass players the general public would know as bass players. I didn't get very far even with the men. A guitarist I played with once didn't even know who Jaco was.

My Aunt also keeps her grand piano in the lounge. The violins, basson amd oboe are in the dining room. To be honest I think musical instruments should be kept in the music room, that leaves the dining room, lounge, drawing room and library free for their intended purposes.

I think the "Oh wow, a woman playing a bass" sentiment is still too prevalent, and certainly being played on here. Suzi Quatro and "the girl who played for Robbie Williams" (Yolanda Charles) at a stretch, would be the only two the general public would be aware of. Very sad really.

The problem is a PA is physical item that has monetary value. The storing, transport, setting up and operating are invisible costs of time and can probably be offset if someone has a big enough house. I've known people storing PAs in their hallway. My wife would go mad. I went down the line of buying a PA and hiring it to the band for each gig and that was budgeted into gigs. For that I made sure everything was replaced when broken or when anything went missing. It went a bit wrong when after a few years the drummer said they must have paid for the PA by now and started complaining about 'his' £10 per gig. Pointing out that I'd spent afternoon's sourcing and replacing tweeters and fixing broken speaker stands, fell on deaf ears..

Don't feed the troll.

I think that will heal well. I shut my right mouse finger in my toolbox on Sunday. It's cut and sore and frustrating as I have a lot of cutting and pasting at work. No playing for a week or so.

They used to be my goto place to get anything. I honestly thought they'd stopped trading a long time ago, they certainly never came up near the top in any searches. Gear4music and Amazon seem to have cornered the Web market. They used to send out a hard printed catalogue every year. Seems they moved to Luton which would explain why their shop on the North Circular had disappeared.

When you play/sing arranged music it's very important you stick exactly to the arrangement. The human brain is very good at interpreting and misremembering things. No matter how good you think you are and how closely you think you're playing a song to how you originally learned it, it will morph over time. That's especially relevant to bands who are playing covers as everyone slightly adapts their arrangements to fit the instrumentation lineup and the ability of the players. Don't position a music stand between you and the audience is my only rule. You're creating a physical and visual barrier between you and them. It's only really obvious from photos because you're peering over the stand, and can see the whole audience. The reverse is not true.

I think the playing since she was 7 is key here. Most of us (all?) come from a time where you weren't taught electric instrument, you bought your first electric guitar when you were 15 and joined a band and learned in your bedroom. Couple that with the fact shes actually 26 years old, older than she looks and there's obviously a lot of marketing going on here. A young bass player suddenly appearing on the scene isn't normal, regardless of gender. Usually it's singer songwriters on guitars. Personally, I think that wikipedia article needs a lot of work. It doesn't really fit the Wikipedia guidelines, there's a lot of dressing up and wooliness, it reads like a typical stage bio/CV.
