It's a bit punkier than most prog, but there are some definite prog moments on it. I really ought to buy it sometime (I know all the songs and have most on other compilations but not the whole caboodle).

Much overlooked.

Hawklords - 25 Years

Motorhead - White Line Fever

Tasmin Archer - Sleeping Satellite

The Primitives - Crash

Black Mountain - Mary Lou

Does this mean it's time for a maths joke thread..?

Old, but I just got sent it today. https://www.wendycarlos.com/resources/studiotips.html

Thanks - I'm thinking of the Boss too, as I know how they work more than the Blackstar! It's a really interesting build: Fender Jazzmaster shape, P-bass pickups, simplified Les Paul wiring (one volume, one tone, one 3 way switch) and 9 gauge guitar strings (throw away the Es), and more frets than a standard uke. Low-G ukelele tuning. and sounds half-way between a ukelele and a guitar. Should be fun. And at least it can be played with headphones 🙂

Does it need a phone/tablet to adjust it (in more than just very basic ways)? That's not going to be practical if so unfortunately. It might be a Christmas/birthday present, but I was hoping to find something a little cheaper for now. I'd looked at a Boss one which is probably "good enough" (https://www.amazon.co.uk/BOSS-KTN-MINI-Katana-Portable-Amplifier/dp/B072XKP8TH/ref=sr_1_23?crid=3U2N14MH6RDY2&keywords=small+guitar+amp&qid=1694519906&sprefix=small+guitar+amp%2Caps%2C115&sr=8-23) or a Blackstar (https://www.amazon.co.uk/Blackstar-FLY3-Fly-3-black/dp/B0BS9V2V9J/ref=sr_1_24?crid=3U2N14MH6RDY2&keywords=small%2Bguitar%2Bamp&qid=1694519906&sprefix=small%2Bguitar%2Bamp%2Caps%2C115&sr=8-24&th=1) which does at least match the uke!

I'd looked at them (or similar) then discounted because of price - we weren't expecting to buy another instrument, let alone a custom electric uke 🙂
