I bought this kit to sort out a badly finished guitar. Also bought a fret end file (via Amazon IIRC). https://www.chrisalsopguitar.co.uk/shop/fret-polishing-kit-TA001?srsltid=AfmBOorVl_vE5B6EGi0Scw-TSn6ersupz69YEJCFtoAmfhoBpHhARlEX

Can we ban this term? Rock n Roll ain't noise pollution.

I spent the day turning this piece of Sapele; into this Precision Bass body; It will be for sale soon on BC probably with EMG pickups and preamp and Wenge neck??? The body finish will be hand sanded finishing oil to as much of a gloss as I can get. I think it’s going to be a beauty.

It will be known as the burns bass bitsa epidemic. Much like when shops sprayed their fenders fiesta red back in the 60s.

It was when Lillian Axe did it! 😎

Yeah maybe the problem was I told them I had a gen 1 and they must of thought I wanted a gen 1 neck, my bad, should have been clear, please keep me posted because I want to do the same thing as you. Cheers

I must get along to a gig with the current line-up. I missed them at the Piece Hall in Halifax last year. A friend went and said it was excellent. Many top artists really rate it as a venue. If they play there again I’ll definitely go.

Plugging the bass into the output of my pedal board when setting up and wondering why I'm getting no signal, is something I have done more than once 😐 Never happens in rehearsal.

I have a Hohner chord harmonica with 6 bass notes.

I have done that from time to time. These days I usually use a TC Electronics BAM 200 and it's 50/50 if I'll plug my bass into the headphone socket and wonder why there's no sound.

I did a 7 day toilet venue tour with a very loud band & on the final date the sound guy had big issues with my signal dipping out. The poor guy was stressing behind-the-desk the-whole-show, but not hearing myself was business as normal. A couple of weeks later I realised I was trying to power my 18V 1A in power brick with a 18V 150mA out adapter… the whole tour… this still haunts me And my farewell gig with the same band I had the genius idea of simplifying a weird stereo setup by using both outputs of the Boss TUx tuner instead… bypass AND output, genius… why didn’t I do that sooner? As I found out after the first song, and as any normal person would expect, everyone can hear you tuning when you use the “bypass” output, I hated myself so much

And of course there’s the classic rookie error of forgetting that one’s playing a fiver and playing it as if it were a four string. Doesn’t sound wrong as such, just really odd. Er, so I’m told by people who’ve done such a thing. Not me though. I’d never be that stupi…..

Hey all, Recently got one of these before the prices shot up! Great sounds can be had, would have preferred a higher level of QC but all works so overall okay. Now to see if I can transfer the lines I can play on my basses to this ha ha 😁!

I dated my nan for a while and always made her dress as Charlize Theron. Just sayin'.

Not a huge one, but last night put my hand in my pocket to pull out a plectrum as the song started... and found my car keys. Managed to find it in about a bar. Biggest near-cock up was getting overexcited playing a 5 on the last encore and switching in chorus, then a HM2, then an octaver and enjoying some huge low notes. At the end I turned round and my amp head was rocking on the edge of the speaker cab like the bus in the Italian Job.

Got the t-shirt... TU-3 set a semitone flat. Luckily realised when I got to second string!

Apologies if this has been posted before:

I am massively looking forward to Tap 2. I haven't seen the first one in over 40 years, and for some strange reason the price of the DVD has really gone up.

We talked about doing it Daryl but decided it wasn't Glam rock. Dave
