Thanks for your dial-up service!

Very nice figuring on that bass.

You don't have a means of resizing the files?

A real doubling pedal would be able to anticipate what is going to be played before it actually is, so that the doubled part moves around ahead of and behind the original line. So, what is needed is a time machine pedal. :mrgreen: This song that a friend and I wrote back in the last century has a do...

FWIW: oddly enough, I may be one of those here with a lot of experience with variacs ... except not in the context of music. In chemistry, they are used to control motors (e.g. stirrers) or heating mantles, as shown in this picture: P3091467A.jpg In this application, the variac was controlling the ...

I can't comment on that particular unit, but I can probably tell you WAY more about Variacs than you ever wanted to know . A variac is a fairly simple device, it's just an "auto-transformer" with a variable tab. An auto-transformer only has one coil instead of separate input and output co...

I have a burgundyglo 4001 with Bartolini pickups. I like it a lot. Always have, since I got it. When changing strings today, I opened it up. Looks to be the original wiring harness, except that I bypassed the bass blocker cap. I measured the potentiometers. Both volume pots are 227K, bass tone is 5...

The end of an era?

OOP could also possible stand for Off Our Planet.

I have occasionally.

Very cool to hear a more "classic" Squire kind of tone out of Paul.

How about "Day Tripper" with Squire.

The most aggressive sounding pickups (in a good way) on any Rick bass I've owned were HB-2s on my old 2030GF.
