Hey Look, It's Me - Kraken

Possibly an unpopular opinion here, but Power Windows is my favourite Rush album. The trio of Manhattan Project / Marathon / Territories is still my favourite three song run from any album ever.

Hey Fatty Bum Bum - Carl Malcolm

Minnie the Pooch-er - Cab Calloway

IIRC, Hartke is 'Horrid American Rubbish That Keeps Exploding'..? Not entirely accurate, I really liked my old HA3500 and it definitely never exploded. Likewise. I paid £330 for my beloved Pro 2E in 1986, at Hamer's in Reading.

The Sun Goes Down (Livin' It Up) - Level 42

Shirley, you can't be serious

+1 for the Artecs. My Thunder 1A has an SE2 in it at the moment, and I fitted a full fat SE3PA to my old fretless Yamaha, the three band with the sweepable mid, and it was great. For my money a 3 band with sweepy mid is the perfect preamp for fretless.

I fitted one of those under the pickguard in my fretless OLP, when I fitted the active eq. It's a very secure battery holder.

Email notifications are still incredibly sporadic at the moment. One minute they're working, next they aren't. It's not just me either, I've had a couple of reports from other members.

'Nuff politics thank you, folks.

I shall make do with my faithful old Basschat long-sleeve T, and my Thatcher's Cider lanyard with the built-in bottle opener. Flying the flag for BC and for the Wess Vinglund.

My DHL delivery driver did precisely that with 800 quids worth of Trace Elliot amp. 'Unimpressed' is a gross understatement.

Caroline by Status Quo. Not much of a challenge, I know but I also had to sing it.

Likewise, I'm not getting email alerts either and I know other members are having the same problem.

Is it too early to start the gear roll-call for SWBB25?

Well, I don't know where you are in the country, but if you come to this year's South West Bass Bash, this one will be there and you can try it to your heart's content

I'm going to move this to GD, in common with other RIP threads, and remove the word 'missing' from the title. I hope nobody minds. A very, very sad day.

I reckon one of these badges on the left rack ear would look pretty good. Just a case of finding one...

Well I've experimented with covering up the big green words (hereafter referred to as the BGW) and surprisingly I actually preferred it with them there. It looks a bit plain and almost dull without them. I'd like to call it a bit Vader-ish but... I dunno. See what you think. I'd like the opinion of the BC massive here. For me it needs something. If I do end up keeping the BGW, that (R) after the ELLIOT will have to go anyway.

Oh mate. 💔

Well, I fired it up earlier. You probably heard it from where you are. JEEEEZUS H TAPDANCING CHRIST, THIS THING IS A MONSTER. The power is just immense. I haven't tweaked the EQ or compressor at all yet, I just wanted to make sure that a} it worked and b} the core tone was good. It's definitely a keeper. I'll do a proper Basschatter's review of it once I've used it in a band setting.
