Haven't driven an operating system I actually liked since OpenVMS.
EDIT: This is in reference to loopback.
Were those the good old days? You made it from there to here. Very well done.
They weren't bad!

This isn't the Saint Patrick's Day of my youth.
There once was a man named Jess,
He designed an amp called a Portaflex,
It would have caused quite a scene, had he dressed it in green,
But it's the tone that made it such a success.
Happy St. Patrick’s Day.

First: HAPPY ST. PADDY'S DAY ALL!
Then: I have a number of non functional bass necks that for some reason I am unable to throw away or use for kindling and they are taking up space. One of my remaining live cells fired and I thought as a novelty item how about a cane or walking stick from a bass neck. I wonder what it would take to make it functional. I googled the concept but all that came up were canes in the shape of guitars or a cane that was also a bass or a guitar. Then the other living cell fired and I got the thought ask the GOF's. Someone there should have an answer of some type.
Eagerly awaiting to see what response I will receive.

Is there a local luthrie, trade, or shop class school that you can donate them to?
Otherwise, donate them to an artist, build a a lamp, a key holder, a hat rack, remove the fingerboard and use the wood to make a nice box.
On donating them I will have to wait for the Covid panic to subside as all schools including the university are closed.
I really like the lamp.
My bass teacher mentioned kindling.
;[)
That's what I smell burning.

Isn't that: I' trying to think but nothing's happening?
That's where I "borrowed" it.

The Three Stooges appeared in It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World as firemen and that's about how everything feels
