Gimme some lovin’ - Spencer Davis Group

I did read somewhere a long time back that the colour came about after a mistake mixing, and they liked it , not sure how true it is

Doesn't say why it was named Antigua? I have never been, but I would expect it to be all bright tropical colours so not an obvious match.

Unfortunately i don't have an amp here at the moment as it is at our studio so haven't heard her fully sing yet. Acoustically she is very vibrant and resonant, great neck and very well set up from @Willfunk at Bass Bros. As per the original advert - she has a route under the pickguard presumably for some previous active electronics, you cant tell at all with the pickguard on tho and in person the route is much smaller than the pics suggested. Original pickups are back in situ and the only non original parts seems to be the pots and the plastic pickup covers. I have a battered old bridge cover that ill stick on and ill seek out a suitably worn looking thumb rest. I do have some worn looking pup covers but the lugs are too large for the pickguard so will source some others. Look forward to getting the amp back from the studio to hear her properly. After that, despite being a flats player, this will get a set of Fender 7150's (the pure nickels) and become my number 1

This, from my piano teacher: "Congratulations Robert on passing your grade two piano exam with a mark of 117. Just missed a merit. Here's to grade three. Onwards and upwards. " So, I have passed, but I am inexplicably grumpy about the whole experience. I am already working on the grade 3 pieces. I will spend two weeks on each piece and then move on to another piece, regardless of whether the music teacher feels that I have used the right amount of staccato or legato in Bar 27. For now, I want to play music, not work toward the exam. Yours grumpily, Robert

Had a chance to buy one back in 2015, more gold than green, but waited too long and someone else jumped on it. I really like the Coronado.

Yep. I apologised in the comments. I really hadn’t intended for them to get swamped. Guess I didn’t think about them being a small company and so probably not having one person whose sole job is customer communication.

I enjoy them basically calling you out! 😁

Am I correct in saying that Ross Valory had some different tunings on his bass.

Nothing sad about JB finding a bass that suited him better.

The official promotional video is out...

I use the combo speakon/jack sockets, so I can swing either way.

I am not sure if I would like to be near the drummer when I suggest this.🎆

In the WiFi settings, you need to switch off Auto Join for all networks as if any are set to Auto Join, they will drop a network that has no internet connection.
