Can't play in the New Guitars 2023 thread.  I did rearrange my empty case storage from horizontal to vertical this year, though.

I played my Kubicki Factor bass in the church band a couple of weeks ago. The following week a woman (in her 40s) asked what instrument I was playing the week prior? (she didn't recognize it as a bass guitar).  The week after, two of the teenage boys who are into guitar/bass asked me how there can be a bass that doesn't need to be tuned? (no tuners on the headstock is where I understood their confusion came from)

!!!  this happened!!!  I was doing sound ages ago, and some kid/guy was playing, his mom or girlfriend or somebody complained to me more than once about how terrible the guys tone was "it never sounds like this!, what are you doing??", - it turned out his wah was on in some terrible sounding position.  I had completely forgotten about that until now.

Last year we saw a guy lose his sound.  He checked his guitar, some pedals, the front of the amp, the cables, the guitar again, the amp again, the back of the amp (actually climbed behind the amp), came out front again, back to the pedal board and...he'd forgotten to take his tuner off mute.
