  1. Greetings from Glasgow 🙂
  2. Apologies - was skim reading. ’Issue’ (it’s not really that, but…) is just with the newest variant of the WB. A simple attenuator brings it down to lower levels.
  3. Yep, most decent desks will have enough headroom to cope. Unfortunately my Scarlett interface and one of my band's desks were a bit clippy, but the attenuator sorted it.
  4. Oof..!
  5. Here's my Custom Jake with passive Maruszczyk P & bridge humbucker pups.
  6. Let’s see a pic of the whole thing!
  7. Oh, I see.
  8. There's usually only a buyer's premium, which is - unlike the hammer price - is subject to VAT.
  9. I can also recommend this for more general Fender info… https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3982909-fender
  10. Yeah, Geddy’s is a stunner. I wish it didn’t stop at the late 60s tho.
  11. ‘The Fender Bass - An Illustrated History’ is the one to get. I think it’s out of print, but available used… if a little pricey. Be warned though… it will make you covet expensive things.
  12. Because some promoters promote music, not genres.
  13. Prepare to have your head melted. Well worth the effort, though. The band’s musical evolution over the 10 years they existed is remarkable.
  14. Absolutely monster musician.
  15. Amazing player. What a guy. 😞

  17. If you stick your ear on the top horn and play it acoustically, does it sound mushy compared to the others? If it does, maybe put the electronics investigation on the back-burner and focus on set-up issues (or the possibility it might just be 'one of those' basses). Hope you get it sorted, tho.
  18. Some of my favourite bass tones are P with a pick and - I suspect - not much in the way of mid-scoop.
  19. I hope they paid him for it..!
  20. A banger from Warren Zevon… And… have we done Carouselambra yet? A disco-prog masterpiece.
  21. I would agree with this.
  22. Tone of roundwounds with tone rolled off ≠ Tone of flats
  23. Just go with the flats. Remember tho - they’re all about the mids. Don’t scoop them out.
  24. Ah, Essex Recording Studios. Love them. A couple of weeks ago, the family of a a dear, departed friend put his guitars through auction. Essex paid about £6,500 for this one, and they're trying to flip it for a canny mark-up: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/185819410017?fbclid=IwAR0XG4EzMQm-E6JQlCETFOCFmAXWVhDrwWfsn6AzR4bL4BpevvjEhoKNLck And of course, they're fully entitled to do this. Good luck to 'em. Kind-of.
