  1. In my opinion accusations aren't enough in this case, I hope someone will take it further, or the victims band together, or something. If you can still sell your stolen gear and continue getting the Instagram money, what's the deterrence for the next up and coming thief? One of these videos (can't even keep up anymore myself) made the point that the penalties need to be BIGGER than the profits, otherwise it's just a low-risk gamble to continue stealing and MAYBE if you get caught, then you get nothing but don't lose anything either. While if you don't get caught, you're a "winner". No. They need to lose, and lose A LOT.
  2. If you have seen one of these, you have seen basically all, yes. BUT. The point is, if some guy now wants to look up the sick licks of the faker on YouTube, they will likely stumble upon one of the many exposes, as they should. The guy made sick money via STEALING. Let's not clutch our pearls that some of the wronged YouTubers and actual musicians are now making like £70 on the rageclicks. They deserve more.
  3. Good. If the kids can't figure out the obviously fake, this is what is needed to open at least some eyes. I'm happy to give them my views and likes.
  4. This one has some more live show examples: https://youtu.be/Jqyt2fk7aNw?si=9nldbl6gB_DFBuHU
  5. Selling a Plüm "Prototype" DIY pedal - Prunes & Custard clone I built. It's a FuzzDog PCB in the enclosure. Prototype, as it's one of the first two I ever made. I usually build 2 identical pedals at the same time at my first attempt, so I have better chances for at least one of them working. This time I got lucky and actually both prototypes work perfectly, and I only need one for myself As it was the start of my learning curve for painting and decorating enclosures, it's got small cosmetic mistakes like chipped corners and getting a bit too close to the drill base, etc, as shown on the photos. Works very nicely with both bass and guitar. For bass, try Drive = 3pm , Mix = 9-10am.

  6. I am not on Insta, but I don't suppose Mr Tuah apologised yet there, where his main "audience" resides? 😁
  7. What's the top left pedal? And what's the signal chain here? Any of these do the brass from the intro? 😁
  8. This keeps coming up and I have to keep remindig myself, I'm here to SELL a bass, not to buy a new one... 😅
  9. Finally! I mean all she had to do is record over 9000 songs perfectly, through multiple decades! 😁 Like one does.
  10. My 5yo has a cheapo uke she gets out every now and then, and I also share my u-bass with her. At this age she doesn't really care about fretting, but the right hand rhythm is already starting to show as she's trying to mimic the music. I guess it builds a foundation!
  11. Look I am pretty far away from being a luthier, but sounds like those frets might need a bit of grinding, they're possibly fractions of millimeters higher than they should be. I had buzzy frets around the 16th-17th where you can't really set the neck, AND I had high action. A luthier grinding them a bit fixed them completely.
  12. Scribd.com has a free trial, where you can legally download Brian's (and of course other) books in PDF. I am about to read it on the train.
  13. Just the average egoguitarist approach to mixing. Nothing new under the sun 😁 OF COURSE everyone wants to hear his crunchy tones and nothing else, that's why they're there for on the wedding!
  14. Of course I have to ask, what does the one-knob red star do?
  15. I know HOW to do it, I just don't know how to do it PROPERLY! 😁 There must be a way, someone must have learned a lesson, etc... does it even make sense on a wider neck?
  16. Has anyone ever changed the string spacing on the magical Sandber bridge? I am thinking about bringing the strings just a bit closer together, but I really don't want to mess up the rather professional factory setup, and I'm worried I wouldn't be able to undo it 😅
  17. Finally had the chance to measure my BB Lionel, ash body. 3.8kg / 8.4 lbs Was stepping on and off with it on the crappy digital scale, so might be a bit off, but ballparkwise should be good, I measured multiple times
  18. Don't quote me on THIS as I only have 2nd hand experience and I myself have never used international options (only some of my buds), but for that purpose there should be other similar solutions that are also instant and save you more money on fees & conversions. Also, I am going crazy offtopic here, sorry 😅 Scammy conversion fees trigger me.
  19. I bought some b-stock Novation / Focusrite stuff before, no issues, good prices. I also found a Startouch ABY pedal for like £60, amazing catch! But there were a couple years ago, nowdays I could never see a decently priced pedal there whenever I checked.
  20. The very business model of PP is to scam out some sizeable pocket change from all parties involved. Google "Honey browser extension scandal", owned by PP... literally everyone involved lost money, except PP. Sorry, I am a very passionate PP hater. 😁
  21. That's a pretty bad USD conversion rate, be careful if you ever spend more in another currency with that card! I got only £34.45 deducted, more than 10% difference...
  22. Great news! See you guys there!
  23. Lovely pedal. I'm almost sure the cracking can be sorted by applying some Specialist WD40 Contact Cleaner at the pot bases (NOT the regular kind of WD40 of course!). GLWTS!
  24. No, no, I am serious, I swear! I am in the GAS abstinence thread now and everything! It... needs... to stop...
