Yours is better than his then.

Not everyone is a gear-junkie here! Weren't there about five or six who haven't bought anything for a whole year? @Mrnace I'm referring to this. Quite a lot of reasonable thinking as well as some beautiful failures there.

Hitch Hike — Marvin Gaye

OK, I studied acoustics and electronics in the university. Worked in a broadcasting company. Did a digital audio and video testing handbook to the service personnel in the company with some help from BBC, as well as wrote a short handbook about MPEG-2 in the 90's while very few of you had even heard about audio coding or audio codecs, like MPEG-1 layer 3 (MP3) which is included in the MPEG-2. I may understand sound and perception a little bit, thank you.

By way of update from my diggings you can get knurled tuning gears from Sire, I think for free as they did a bit of a mea culpa for the current designs. Any more impressions from these basses? I just ordered the swamp ash version for a juicy £616 with Bad Shop. It should be here maybe maybe maybe next week. Ander.

I assume he didn't want to be swamped by a million "I told you so's".

Happy New Year everybody! Can anybody please identify what book the attached random page came from as I would like to buy the book? I found itvtucked in the back of an entirely different book I bought from a charity shop, and I like this particular layout. I've been searching and searching for a match using AI and all sorts, but with no luck. Thank you all very much.

Hello to you. Welcome aboard. How was your bank balance?

@EddieG hasn't been on this site since June 2025, I hope he's OK.

I think there's a whole 'nother thread specifically with you in mind! The "Gear Absinthe 2026" thread, or something similar...

Is it bad up your way ? I'm not too bad as have 4x4 Subaru but its never an easy drive in snowy conditions no matter what you drive. I see on news Amber warning out now and not drive unless you need to. Dave

How did it end ??

It er, doesn’t exist quite yet but we are all for helping newbies here - 🐻 with us

How did it end ???

I think my point is that beginners don’t know what is actually simple and what is not a video of it being played plus tab for reference however might make something feel achievable

One of my all-time favourite bassist and such a great bloke too. His playing was both melodic and groovy and ALWAYS made the songs better.

Wise move I think!

While I didn't use them for this, I have been perusing Cathy's Custom Guitars on Facebook. They don't sell from the page, you need to PM one of the site mods. They seem to do four main (Gibson copy) guitars, Les Paul, SG, Vees and Explorers, although I gave seen 335.

Probably just as well as the journey might have been, let’s say interesting.

Welcome Paul.
