    Love? Yes. Available funds? Well, that's a different story.

    Lovely! GLWTS

    And does it very well, at that!

    Unfortunately my car needs servicing before I can spend on fun stuff, and given its history of needing work doing when I wasn't expecting it I'm going to have to be prudent for now. That's not to say I'm not very tempted though...

    Wow! It's a real shame I'm not going to be in the market for another few months or I'd be all over this. GLWTS!

    As in £360 including postage?

    I suspect that depends more on the functionality of the EB database than the reputability of PMT as a retailer. I'm sure PMT wouldn't want to risk falling out with EB by selling knock-off gear.

    Yep, a right-angled jack is the way to go.

    Indeed, I have Gallien Krueger amp sim which can be run in a DAW or as a standalone app.

    Indeed, these are very handy and you can plug your MP3 player/phone into it (assuming your phone has an aux socket, which alas my current phone doesn't so my amPlug is gathering dust at the moment 😡).

    I've used Focusrite's Scarlett Solo and 2i2 and both are excellent and would be ideal. I use Cakewalk for my DAW as it's free but has more functionality than Audacity (which is still good though), such as being able to use plugins to replicate effects so you can try them out before spending more money on pedals.

    This one: https://www.pmtonline.co.uk/music-man-stingray5-special-5-string-bass-raspberry-burst? Looks pukka to me.

    Hi all, our band has been approached to play a gig at a fairly new venue towards the end of the year, c. 500 capacity, all good. The only thing is the venue is apparently insisting on us using their own backline. Our guitarist is a bit iffy about this as she has a Boss Katana modelling amp and uses her footswitch to change modes during our set, but I'm guessing for bass gear they're likely to have something fairly standard like a Fender, Ampeg, etc., and obviously I can use my pedalboard, so I'm not overly worried. I'm just wondering what others' experiences of such arrangements have been, if there are any pitfalls to this approach, any etiquette I need to be aware of, etc.

    I've taken to using Simandl fingering for the lower frets to save stretching my tiny fingers. This means a lot more shifting, but so far I seem to be dealing with it.

    I haven't looked inside but I in line with what others have said my V7 is quiet as a mouse tiptoeing while wearing velvet slippers.

    In general probably no more than about £7-800, but for a special one-off treat I think something in the region of £1800 would be my limit. Unless I won the lottery, in which case my order to the Sadowsky NYC workshop would be going in the day the winnings hit my bank account!

    Oh, almost certainly now, given that photo was taken in the early part of last year and he's now fully grown!

    The cab would certainly be less expensive and bitey than the puppy, but would give much less emotional return. I think the puppy wins out easily

    These are great little gadgets. GLWTS!

    Must. Ignore. Don't. Need...

    I was going to say the same. I currently have an ABM-500 paired with a Barefaced Two10 and it sounds looooooooooooooovely. Hoping to upgrade to the ABM-600-EVO-IV in a few months when funds allow as the 500 is only on loan.

    Originally purchased by me from @nikon F of this parish (with more than a little assistance from @Merton and his sister), an Ashdown MAG 410T Deep cab for sale. The cab works very well, but I had the chance to acquire a Barefaced Two10s so this is now surplus to requirements. I've only gigged it once and it's lovely, but alas it's a bit too heavy for this 300lb weakling. Currently missing a corner protector which disappeared during a band rehearsal before Christmas but I'll replace this and provide spares. Some specs: Dimensions: 25.8" (h) x 23.8" (w) x 16.5" (d) Frequency Response: 60Hz - 20kHz Impedance: 8Ω Power Handling: 350W continuous Speakers: 4x10" + tweeter SPL: 101dB 1W @ 1m Weight: 60.6 lbs

    Low End Lobster wrapped carpet tape around his. As long as you use something that means the machine head isn't going to wobble about then you could use pretty much anything, I believe.

    It was a sad day when Shaun Keaveny left the breakfast show.

    Yeah, I think we're narrowing our stuff down to a core set of tunes and then others we can mix and match depending on the gig, how the singer's voice is doing, etc. It's trying to mix things up which is the challenge. We play two Blur songs and play both as part of our set. I suggested we might do one or the other, as my feeling is that if a cover band plays two tunes from the same artist it smacks of a lack of imagination, but that suggestion was swiftly shot down.
