    Well that’s the oil sanding finished and just the final coats of Liberon Finishing oil now. The chatoyance on the Sapele is gorgeous and the grain is starting to really come out. The Liberon is such a joy to work with.

    It's not a stroke if genius as double tracking has been used since the early days of multi tracking recording. Mick Karn's tone on studio records, for example, comes from the fact that he always doubled all his parts getting that superb chorus tone, because of the slight differences in tempo and note placement (hey we are not robots). In metal, the kick of the drum has been triggered on a second track (to allow MIDI tone manipulation) for decades to get that powerful tone you hear on most recordings.

    I was never encouraged to do music. My parents were both musical but just couldn’t be bothered I was inspired to bass by watching Adam Clayton at live aid. I’m no more talented now than I was then but I live the feeling of “filling out the sound”

    Is this still on hold??

    Yep always be prepared. I take spare everything except strings. I take 2 basses, 2 amps, batteries, straps, tools, 2 sets of Glam gear and even 2 boots. 😂 Dave

    As an Alice In Chains fan and Spector player Ive been trying to get the Mike Starr tone and just not quite matching the grit. Then I see this video. Could this be right? Is it double tracked with an acoustic? Was this a stroke of genius or something used before?

    It's an easy mistake to make. The P and the T are on the same row of the keyboard at least 😂

    Yes. There are 4. I have 3. no-one has the 4th! and seeing as the two badges that match hellzero were awarded on the same day as his I reckon that that is when they were setup.

  23. Duroc17
    Picked this up as noodle bass/back up but since got new 34" noodle bass back up - so this would make great mod platform, or at home noodle bass or great for beginner/intermediate as 32" Scale and super sating neck - and no fret sprout - was really nicely surprised on the QC on this compared to Classic Vibe etc as i'd heard horror stories about Affinity - seems in 2025 they have got their act together - I've but medium scale chrome flatwounds on this - which has made it a tubby thump monster - have the zingy new rounds it came with It's basically new so save a few quid and get nice plate with it Pick up Clitheroe or can post in original Squier box for £10 -or happy to meet up nearish Clitheroe on road

    Has anyone got experience of felt picks? I inagine these sound much more finger-like. (In the early days Fender recommended "the thumb of the right hand or a plectrum of medium to heavy weight felt, if preferred". Using the first and second fingers of the right hand was for a more advanced stage were "speed and agility" were required.)

    Selling this drum kit on behalf of my brother who can’t play anymore due to ill health The kit can be broken up so if you spot something that catches you eye let me know and we can work out a decent price for you

    I’m surprised it’s still here to be honest

    This bass started life as a Gherson Jazz bass that I bought off @Bass Wielder here last year I have had the neck completely refretted and levelled as there was some buzzing up at the dusty end Rerouted for new Toltec Jazz pickups, ring around the bridge pickup is to hide the previous rout as the original pickups were an odd ball size New Pickguard added and the original pots used Tuners also changed out Schaller bridge fitted Weight is 4.6 Kg's The body is just a lovely, pickups are lively and loud Asking price is about half what it cost me in total to put togeather but the result is great IMHO I will include free delivery to UK addresses

    Just for another option for all you medium scalers - Gretsch CVT Electromatic. Looks cool for around £500

    Why don't you use radiused long cauls and a sharpie, you get ultra fast and accurate results all over the frets length (that some may call width) in a very few passes? Depending the starting mess for the levelling, I can also begin with some 300 to 400 grit self-adhesive sandpaper, but most of the time I commence with 600 grit going to 1200 grit then recrowning the frets and going up to 2000 grit before the polishing process.

    The fact that Sailing was massive is the problem. So was Clive Dunn's Grandad. So was Mouldy Old Dough. There was so much awful music in the 70s and 80s that we've forgotten. Having said that, Meri Wilson's Telephone Man is a walking-bass masterpiece and Crazy Horses is one of the best rock tunes I can think of so there are always gems in throwaway pop if you keep an open mind!
