  1. So, had something of a catastrophe, bridge down mid-rehearsal, soundpost fell. Never had this happen before. Should I be looking to use a soundpost tool and do it myself or are there any issues with doing this on an aluminium instrument I need to consider? I guess I would simply unscrew the body and reinstall it but suspect that might introduce a whole new set of problems
  2. Not a criticism BTW 👍
  3. Pedal board for a minimalist feels a little bit contradictory?
  4. Yes, but some rather odd narrative on the site, perhaps lost in translation?
  5. The Flea Bass they wouldn’t make for Flea?
  6. Moment I saw it I thought ‘Damn, frets….’ 🤔
  7. Thomas & George Martin of course
  8. Good opportunity to learn how to do your own bridge, some lovely online content (especially good piece from an Oxford luthier whose name escapes me). £500 buys a lot of blanks 👍
  9. A different age 😕
  10. Keep practicing seems to be the best advice given the above The boring bit. Also make sure you're staying hydrated (hydration and concentration tend to correlate once you get past a certain level of fatigue), perhaps have a couple of coffees (not energy drinks, sugar can be a double-edge sword) during the set, avoid alcohol, and get enough sleep ahead of the gig 👍
  11. Hi Richard, hope the new rig's going well. The manual for the Doubler is here https://www.manualslib.com/manual/1458105/Euphonic-Audio-Iamp-Doubler-2.html#manual I forget what the I/Ps are but I'm pretty sure you can run the two above units, I used a magnetic PUP and a mic into each channel happily.
  12. The Beedster Custom Shop Streetwood body £11,800 reduction on Fender price
  13. Because saying something controversial for effect is not the same as believing something controversial
  14. True of much of the population beyond the arts, sport, business, politics and science
  15. I assume you’re being ironic?
  16. I've a potential buyer for the E and A but don't really want to be left with two strings so if you happen to be in the market for the D and G please let me know 👍
  17. A very interesting piece, bass and drums extracted from two different recordings of two different tracks 👍
  18. That's a beauty, a real beauty 👍
  19. Interesting and interested. It would be useful to see a photo of the whole instrument built up?
