Flats, neck pup full, bridge pup & tone all the way down 👍
I like Yamaha basses - really fancied one a few years ago with the metal control plate & 5-piece neck!
-
Everyone needs a precision, well two actually (1x flats, 1x rounds)!
They're so simple you don't have to spend loads to get one sounding great either. Sire are the dominant force of that market sector ATM but the non-basic Squiers are still pretty good too. -
That is a shame! They must have fixed it for the ps5 version, it's been super smooth so far though still early days.

Got 3 weeks off for parental leave so, of course, I've restarted Skyrim. I've never actually finished the story before do that's the aim.
Got the free upgrade to the ps5 version - the loading is so fast it's like a different game, gone are the hours sat waiting for the next bit of the level to load!

I've been in a similar quandary; currently between the Linton's and JBL L82s.
Was very disappointed the Linton's weren't on sale anywhere for black Friday given the new one has recently released, hopefully stores will be looking to clear space in Jan! -
Not everyone is a freelancer and most in decision making positions are not.
I think it's a combination of low margins so poor decisions can be business ending and celebrity worship skewing decisions.

The TV industry has a problem with sexual misconduct, inappropriate behaviour and bullying because of an industry wide culture of silence & plausible deniability; the broadcasters "don't know" because the shows are made by separate production companies, the production companies "don't know" because the productions are ran separately to the corporate production arm and everyone that works on production is a freelancer so not employed by the production companies. Freelancers will all have disappeared elsewhere by the time people make complaints.
The BBC is one of the largest broadcasters in the UK & everyone that works in TV will work on a show broadcast on the BBC at some point in their careers so of course the BBC will quite often be implicated when incidents are made public.
Creepy talent & management get away with things because no one wants to upset the other companies; broadcasters need to keep the producers on side for key shows in order to keep the future series on their channels, producers don't want to upset the broadcasters as they rely on broadcaster funding in order to make the shows, then there's the secondary sales around the world which is a massive money maker for UK companies etc...
Unless there's a fundamental shift to prioritising safeguarding over profits, I don't think the industry is going to change any time soon.

Sounds like great fun!
I've never IRL driven round there but maybe get some practice in on Gran Turismo? The adverse camber on the Paddock Hill & Graham Hill bends is horrific.
-
Two of them were made by Muneishi, not sure about the petty as it was a gift and I can't read the writing! I'm fine with non-matching as I just wanted all kurouchi finish so they all look similar but have different handles.

I've bought a couple from Kataba in Covent Garden, really nice shop & I've spent a considerable amount of time in there feeling all the knives up.
I bought a Santoku first then got a petty & a Gyuto but really I think I could do 95% of my cutting with just the Santoku.
