    I recently bought a used Gibson SG bass from Bass Bros. These strings are the ones that came with it. The shop was unable to tell me what they are, as they were already on the bass when they acquired it. The bindings are an amber / gold colour on all four, if that gives anyone a clue. I have put roundwounds on now, so these are surplus to requirements. Note that they have been cut for a two-a-side headstock, so I don't know if they'd work for a four-in-line style bass. £15 posted within UK.

    Personally, I'd be more concerned about the trees than the bass. Especially if they contain squirrels or nesting birds.

    Recently discovered this band - sadly already defunct.

    I'd rather my money stayed in the UK, Europe, or went to Canada or the far east than to the US. Whenever there's talk of targeted tariffs against the US, they tend to mention whiskey and motorcycles, and I often wonder why they don't also include musical instruments and associated gear.

    I recently acquired a Barefaced SuperMini (1x12, 8 ohm, rated for 600W). My only amp at the moment is an Elf, which will put out 130W into 8 ohms. I've not had a chance to use this combination in anger yet, though we have a band rehearsal next weekend when I can give it some welly. The band is pretty loud, and up till now I've been using the Elf with a (Mesa? 4x10?? 4x12??) cab that is in the rehearsal room we use, and it's been plenty loud enough, though I've no idea what the ohmage of that cab is. I've also read that some cabs don't give their best sound when "underpowered" - no idea if this is true or a myth. Any thoughts on whether/how this combination is likely to work out? I should add that I am playing keys in this band, but am looking to join a second band as a bass player, and want the setup to work for either scenario. I know, I know, the sensible answer is wait to try it out and see, but am curious as to your opinions.

    Bought a Barefaced Super Mini from Dave. Very smooth transaction, despite him being hindered by "severe delays" on the Northern Line. A pleasure to deal with, and the cab is just as described. Recommended.

    So many reasons to choose UK products over US ones, apart from the price!

    Good to know.

    OK, I finally got a very apologetic reply, so I am somewhat mollified, especially as I realize it was at least in part my fault for not reading all the FAQs before purchasing!

    I don't think Glenn is personally involved in the technical side, and the auto reply I got had someone else's name on it. I think Glenn was more involved in designing the product from the point of view of what it should sound like and the features it offers - I think the actual coding and tech support is handled by others.
