Someone once told me a lot of these shops barely make any money on expensive instruments, and it's rather the cheapo stuff sold in bulk that's important. Like the picks, straps and strings, where they make pounds on pennies. Don't know to what extent is this true... But Peach Guitars just had a Boss TE-2 on sale, apparently the last one because as I bought it, it went out of stock. Hope it's not a returned item 😅

There are limits on how many tickets you can buy per person for every raffle Edit: I see this is set to 10% of the total indeed!

To imagine my in-laws smoke 2-3 cigarettes every hour... oh my god.

I tried this, didn't win anything on my first attempt. MUST BE FAKE! 🙃

I'm sure Mr Corrupt Multimillionaire Tax Evader doesn't use those trains that much that it would bother him if they weren't even running due to the lack of staff. But workers setting a precedent by demanding a living wage... that's scary 🙄

I am sure his intentions are much better this time, it's not like guys like him have a form 🙄🙄🙄

Nooo, I loved them! Hope the Rumble 40 I bought from them a couple months ago doesn't crap itself now 😅

After messing up a 3-band RAT PCB, I decided to breadboard it out first. I was pleasantly surprised it worked on first attempt, I never breadboarded anything before. I almost cried when decyphering the transistor legs from the schematic, I think I would have been lost there without having an extra empty PCB where I could trace the legs properly, visually. Here's some fun swapping diodes and LEDs, I know everyone loves those 😁

Thanks for the recommendation! If anyone is like me and loathes amazon for any valid reason of the many available ones, here are some other links: https://www.abebooks.co.uk/book-search/isbn/9781915858252/ https://blackwells.co.uk/bookshop/product/Just-Backdated-by-Chris-Charlesworth/9781915858221 https://www.waterstones.com/book/just-backdated/chris-charlesworth/9781915858221 edit: and of course Worldofbooks has some used ones, I just grabbed one from there 😁

A vote here for Nux Mighty Plug. Never let me down, easy to pair and listen to backing tracks

Well for example that Starstream is still out there! If you're saying we can have only one good bass, this industry is in big trouble 😁

FWIW, I just got my first £500+ instrument ever (a new Sandberg Lionel for £1200). I love it, it feels right, it sounds right, I WANT to play it. BUT this could be indeed true for many other basses in other price categories. I bought it new as it was exactly the config I wanted: matte blue finish, black hardware, Precision shortie. Normally I am a "value for money" guy so likely this is my last ever brand new bass, I'll go back to budgets/used ones after this. But at least once it had to be done 😁

You got the proper Ray though, maybe that would have felt better in my hand and would not need to get rid of it... 😁 And I know the problem is with me, I had 2 pro friends try the Sterling and everyone was amazed, even though they don't even like shorties. Maybe it's the thin Jazz neck? I thought I liked those. Yet I always seem to go back to P. So is that a gold finish, or mustard yellow? Hard to tell because of the shine.
