  1. It's interesting that there's a comment from June in the seller feedback about making a MIM Jazz try to look roadworn, so I wonder if they've been trying to flog this for some time but nobody's been fooled yet.
  2. I can happily recommend the TC Electronic Corona, which does do Toneprint so you can download presets straight to the pedal if you wanted a number of different chorus tones to use on the fly. There's some interesting ones done for the likes of Nathan East, Duff McKagan, Victor Wooten, Fieldy, to name but a few.
  3. Don't think I've posted an updated version since adding my PSU, but I definitely think a three-rail board might be on my Christmas list as the number of affordable two-rail boards with PSU holders under them seems pretty low.
  4. I can still see it there
  5. Exactly my point. The system as designed relies on every venue where live music is played, or every band that plays live, reporting what songs are played at every gig. That's never going to happen, as you say.
  6. So songrwiters are supposed to contact every venue in the country on the off chance someone has played one of their songs?
  7. The best version of the Spotify app is probably the Linux one as it's an unofficial one the Spotify programmers created for themselves.
  8. We managed to learn three whole new songs yesterday, which is some sort of record for us.
  9. This is something I've always wondered as well, how PRS shares out the fees that venues collect. PRS seems to suggest that it's done on self-reporting by venues or artists, including for cover bands, but this seems to be placing an awful lot on trust.
  10. As I say, Bigsby, Fender, Les Paul, etc. were all contemporaries, hence the "cross-pollination" comment earlier. Fender may have nicked Bigsby's design but it's arguable what claim Bigsby had to it being their original idea in the first place.
  11. Yeah, I had to log in to IG to play it.
  12. But to be fair the Bigsby headstock design itself was inspired by headstocks used for much older stringed instruments. Alas my Google-fu has let me down and not taken me to an image I've found previously, but they're effectively a violin family instrument headstock viewed in profile.
  13. I have a Vox amPlug 2 and it's quite a nifty bit of kit and extremely portable. https://www.gear4music.com/Guitar-and-Bass/Vox-amPlug-2-Bass/13GA
  14. There was a lot of "cross-pollination" of ideas around that time. The Birth of Loud by Ian S Port is a good read for the background.
  15. That Audiovox sounds pretty good all things considering!
  16. They're selling in the neighbourhood of $1100 at Sweetwater in the US, so I'd expect them to be in the region of £900 if that translates from the current exchange rate, which is Fender Player series price territory
  17. Looks like one of these: https://www.tc-helicon.com/product.html?modelCode=P0DEG
  18. Do you have isolated power supplies for each pedal through a separate power supply unit, or are they daisy-chained and just plugged straight into the mains?
  19. I already get business use as I occasionally use my car for my day job, and it doesn't add a lot to my premium.
  20. Fender to spend five years without releasing a new variation on a Jazz or Precision bass to give them some time to come up with some new ideas.
  21. As alluded to in a recent post, my band are playing at Night of The Living Dubz festival near Doncaster Airport
  22. I wouldn't be surprised. Guitar Guitar have them on cheap at the moment as well, albeit not as cheap as this.
