OK, I suspect I must have missed something by scrolling through the bits with Danny in them, in which case appologies, I will see if there is a transcript available!

Nope. She had a wooden eye and a milky leg as well.

Whassup with black trainers? I generally wear trainers out and about and I prefer plain black to brightly coloured gimmick styling. (Unless you're also going to say people going out wearing trainers.) (BTW, sandals are footwear; sandles sell cars.)

Fantastic . I'll get my coat.

I think it’s the first time I’ve seen a parrots beak headstock. Could be a game changer 😂

I realise this is quite an old thread now... There's one thing I find useful that hasn't been mentioned - listen to the songs repeatedly. Our covers band normally add in 4-5 songs at a time. I'll pop them on to a playlist and listen during my commute, or just on in the background working from home. Sometimes I'm paying attention and listening to the bass, others it's just there to fill the silence. I find that I build up a lot of familiarity with the material, and I do a much better job of both learning my own part and keeping the band on the straight and narrow when it comes to rehearsing.

Hmmm...(scratches head). Maybe it makes them much more portable? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/167385737980?mkevt=1&mkpid=2&emsid=e90001.m164960.l179212&plmtId=700008&mesgId=3037&mkcid=8&ch=osgood&bu=43035696244&trkId=01361126-f090-337c-b806-64017ed875de&cnvId=700003&recoId=167385737980&recoPos=2 Apologies if this has been posted previously

That doesn't seem to tally with the comments...

There’s one crucial detail which differentiates this from someone playing air guitar…

We have reached the frustrating "waiting for stuff to arrive" part of proceedings. But little things have happened. - the neck shims arrived, and I put the middle one (0.5 degree) one in. Can get a low enough action now, but the G saddle is pretty near the deck. Will try the 1 degree one and see how high that makes the saddles then decide which I prefer. - With it all strung up, did a basic setup on it and it intonates fine, not a lot of room left on the E saddle back travel, but there's a fix for that if needs be. - I found my nut files and lowered the slots to somewhere where they need to be, might chance my arm and grind them down a touch more. - I dealt with a high second fret by recrowning it - I know you should probably get the neck straight and check all the frets, but it's playing really nicely apart from that one so opted to spot fix it instead. Today a scary router bit should arrive and I'll be able to deal with the excess neck pocket material. And hopefully use the router on this bass for the last time.

I expected sundays gig to be bad, outdoor in a marque for 3 hours in the mid day, so I brought a fan, so did the drummer, so we made a fan table behind us and it was great Maybe we can market the fan table!

Thank you! I look forward to some jolly cooperation with everyone 😄

She isn't trying to fool anyone, she is just air guitaring along to some music, as people have done for years. Is he going to get outraged at the air guitar competitions they have next? I mean I wouldn't watch her videos but she certainly isn't as irritating as watching Danny Sapko!

I like that idea. It's a pain to take them off individually

Sounds and looks fantastic! Nice playing as well.
