Raspberry Beret - Prince

latest addition to the cheap 1590a gang

My Cobra was black and green. We also had a Cobra (keyboard) amp which was black and orange

I had one of those from about 2001 to 2022. It did its job. I donated it to a local music school and as far as I know it's still going.

Thanks for the replies. The plan is not to fill the whole slot, just pack it out at the bottom by a mm or two, although im sure to get to that I will need to file it. I have the wife's baking soda and the glue, I'll get some sandpaper and should be good to go. It's only a plastic nut and if I bodge it up too much I'll get a new one fitted. Should really do that anyway but I need the bass at home for the next few weeks while im learning some songs for a couple of gigs in July.

He was bassist in Pink Flod I think…….

Yeh, I believe it may be more recent versions that don't have it. They don't help themselves with all the renaming - I'm sure someone further up the food chain thinks it's funny

According to wikipedia he was an architect who worked on the Thames Barrier and redevelopment of Covent Garden. It doesn't say anything about his bass playing, though. 😁

Never gigged one but my guitarist has one in his studio and it keeps up with a drum kit just about! Very easy to dial in a good sound too. With a bit of PA support this should serve you well 👍

Id never heard of this brand until seeing this thread, turns out I've just moved house about 1/4 mile from their old factory site! Spooky

I think your answers were just above in this thread @gorandelac. 😉

I read @Rich linked article yesterday, and at least he is very positive, like the guy to whom I bought a digital piano last week and who was also diagnosed Parkinson a few years ago. I never really liked the poppy music A-Ha were doing back then, but Morten Harket is a very talented singer for sure and what a voice.

So I've just taken off the dragon skin plus strings I put on in January. They lasted well for most of that time but did die off quite a bit over the last few weeks. That is home practice for 30-60 mins probs 5 days a week with a rehearsal or gig every couple of weeks. YMMV of course. Had hoped for a bit longer, but really great strings.

LOL, correction fail

Maybe read it again carefully. Hint, it is not the "Roger" bit 😉
