[quote name='stingrayPete1977' timestamp='1355917627' post='1904361'] Toys are always for the win!-fact (got the -fact thing from another thread it is my new favourite!) Pies are also good but ex alike was wierd [/quote] You reckon I should make the purchase then?! If I spend big tomorrow, it's on the cards I think My bank account is quaking! My ex was never that sh1t getting a Pepsi.

Is it being delivered by DHL or UPS?

Pete - I saw you pouring gravy on your pie last night - that hand is going to be just great. We need more pie nights in our life... especially if it involves freaking out the girl who looks suspiciously like my ex-girlfriend! Anyway, give it some physio and some time and you'll be back to your normal self. If not, there's always lap bass... and your name is on a Yammy upright already. Question is, do I buy my new toys...?

[quote name='BassKS' timestamp='1355843114' post='1903515'] Or should I just buy a Tonehammer 500 and shift the pre. [/quote] Yup.

So when would you use a group over a DCA/VCA? I'm thinking for monitor mixes? Say over Aviom? Or an output to another room? And could somebody clarify my understaning of a Matrix mix?

Could somebody explain these in more detail? They seem to be a group but without audio - more a master control for a group of channels?

Looks very ace. Nice work! Next, Brent Mason tele?

[quote name='stingrayPete1977' timestamp='1355789134' post='1902913'] Better send my painted board eub back then [/quote] Yes. Paint on a fretless WILL NOT WORK!!!

2 pack polyester paint will - Pedulla's do it on their fretless basses. As an idea, you can paint your design and then apply a clear poly finish over the top to give you the hard paint finish you need.

Its good to know that painted fretboards have had years of letting myself, Larry Graham, Prince, Larry Graham down. It's all down to what you "paint" your fingerboard with... Ah yeah, painted fretboards also let a certain Jaco down too...

Why pay for extra when you just can increase the thickness of the cable between your router and the wall socket. Similarly, have you noticed that when the air pressure is higher your wifi is quicker? (check your barometers for your best download periods)

All the stuff I've ordered has come within 4 days Pete.

[quote name='stingrayPete1977' timestamp='1355480233' post='1898847'] Obviously the temperature of the venue and the type of underpants you wear will alter the figures but I am having a room built to test this at the moment [/quote] Obviously you wear rubber pants and rubber soled shoes.

[quote name='stingrayPete1977' timestamp='1355479765' post='1898832'] I will put up some graphs later [/quote] Cheers.

Who do you think you are Pete? Some sort of expert?

Disney too...

PS - sack that singer off.

I used to suffer with that - I could never get my head around things like playing the riff to Daytripper and singing at the same time. All it takes is some training. Get something like "Transcribe!" and take a track you know on bass and would like to sing. Slow it down real slow and really focus on where the words land in relation to where the bass notes are. After a while, you gain the independence you need between your voice and your hands. It will become second nature. Stick with it - one day the switch will flick where your vocals and bass will seperate. It used to be a nightmare - even talking to the drummer midset, my playing would drag to the rhythm I was speaking in! All good now though.

[quote name='Seb_C' timestamp='1355219041' post='1895400'] In a similar vein, I keep finding myself lusting after the Sheryl Crow Telecaster... [/quote] Oh yeah! Same here. Its immense.

Good stuff

...but I'll have the jacks

Not interested in the cable...

[sup]First up, check your screening. Are you cavities lined with copper or painted with shielding paint? I hate to admit it, I had some Nordstand pickups coupled with an Audere preamp and the thing was noisy as hell. Calmed it down with a super shielding job... but I was never 100% happy.[/sup]
