Stick it on with some double sided tape and glue fake screw heads onto the pick guard. (I'm being about 75% serious actually..!)2 points

But isn't part of the 'Ric' sound caused by having two truss rods that don't work properly?? *runs away*2 points

Errm... no. Especially given Kodiakblair's recent trials and tribulations with Paisley... I might consider a 50s -style pin-up though, that would be in keeping with the vibe.2 points

It's a possibility... courtesy of, and with thanks to, Mr Kodiakblair.2 points

Given your popularity, I'd say you are faced with an unreasonably large task if you take it all on. Good luck with that. You needn't worry. We're a casual lot for the most part. So, what brings you to this forum? I'm betting you aren't looking for tips on slap technique or the TAB showing how to play the intro to Wherever I Lay my Hat as played by Pino Palladino...2 points

We always get the drums set up first, with my amp on drummer's left and geetar on his right. Then we all drop 3 tabs of acid each and start on the Buckfast to prepare ourselves...2 points

I know one can never have enough Overwaters but I want to buy new back line. Sadly this one has to go. Chris and the team have refurbished and set the bass up so it is ready to go and looking fabulous! Here is the spec as described by them: Description: Overwater Perception Deluxe 4 (Ser. No. 05-xxxx) Condition: Pre-owned. Fully Refurbished. Excellent (one small lacquer crack close to neck bolt which was there when I bought it from OW some 12 years ago and slight wear on edge of pick up cover used as thumb rest). “A stonking good buy!” Chris May Please note: due to new CITES regulations, this bass is not available outside the E.U. Specifications: Neck: 3 piece Maple Scale length: 34" Scale Body: Tulipwood Top: Flame Maple Back: None Finish: Vintage Sunburst Gloss Head Veneer/Finish: Matching Fretboard: Rosewood Frets: 24 - Medium Binding: None Position Markers: 2mm MOP side dots Machines: Bass Mini - Chrome Bridge: Hipshot B Style – Chrome String Spacing: 19mm Pick-ups: Overwater/Armstrong Soap Bars Controls/EQ: Active – OW 3 band EQ Scratchplate: None SER No: 05-3244 Weight: 9lbs/4Kgs Year: 2005 Case: Included (not overwater)1 point -
First cd better than the second imho... Saw them live at Mcr Academy soon after they released the second - they were dreadful. Complete shambles. Still love the cleverness of the lyrics and range of genres parodied in the first though.1 point

I’ve just tried a set of fender flats for the first time - I have basses with la Bellas, Thomastiks, and quite a few Chromes on (my preference) - the Fenders are pretty much as good as the others - I have a preference for the feel of the Chromes - but otherwise they are just as good1 point

All good Paul.1 point

Probably just the soundcheck, to be honest1 point

I used to have a CMD121P combo to which I added a NY121P cab. The increase in volume sounds more like four times and the fullness of sound is amazing. Do it now!!! As I already had a LM3 I sold the combo and bought another NY121P cab for my lightweight rig of LM3 plus two NY121P cabs.1 point

Without pick guard is my take. Nice colour. Was it a PB50 once?1 point

I've never tried. But playing along right now to some 'new' Grateful Dead CDs (21 discs 1971 live) is enough fun for me!1 point

Nice. Also f-hole dependent. But I think cream works without a guard. There is also the option of a black guard, just to confuse the issue...1 point

Yes, I remember the endless debates about Geddy Lee switching between his 4001 and his Jazz, and how he clearly unmistakably used the 4001 recording tom sawyer, as it sounded so much like it and he used it in the video. Until he came out and said it was recorded using the jazz.1 point

Mine was a wreck when I got it, I bought it back to life with a lot of TLC and every time it goes out the house I make a point of dinging it again. It's lovely. At the last gig I did with my old band I actually threw it across the stage in a bit of a rage.1 point -
For sale is this beautiful 2018 Elrick USA. The handcraft is flawless. The ergonomics and playability are the best I have come across. Sound is very versatile due to good woods, very useable eq and excellent pickups. The instrument has been played mostly at home, and it has seen only 1 gig. Not a single scratch or mark. All in all, a spectacular bass. The reason for selling is that the wenge neck was not my thing after all, I'm more maple neck guy. And gas for something new, as usual. Swamp ash body gorgeous walnut burl top wenge neck and fingerboard 34” scale and 18 mm string spacing, very comfortable (option) Aero pickups that can be used in dual or single coil mode ($650 option) Bartolini 3 band eq with bass, treble and switchable midrange active/passive switch weight 3.9 kg (very light!) original hard case included The price with these options would be $4450 plus customs and taxes. I am asking 2600€ or £2300 for it. The bass is located in Finland (EU area) and can be shipped anywhere at buyers expense. I may consider trades for a high quality 5-stringer around the same price range, such as Mtd or Fbass, or perhaps some cheaper easily selling bass, such as Fenders (+/- cash). Thanks for watching.1 point -
I just got a reply from Rob Green. He says it is legit and identifies it as a S2 bolt on! Thank you all1 point

Stand around scratching various body parts as the pot banger takes a full f****** HOUR to set up, usually finishing about 5 mins before kick-off. Then begin mad scramble.1 point

God yes. It all gets very dark and serious when that starts. A silly story but we used top play a large club in Slough. During the high stakes Bingo on a Sunday night they banned any talking, phones off etc. Our guitarist, being a forgetful chap, didnt turn his off. Off he goes across the room to the bar. Whispers to the bar man for 3 pints, and starts to walk back with them. Now, im not sure why i did this, but i decided as he was crossing the dance floor to call his mobile. It might have been because i knew he had the Dambusters theme tune as his ring tone, and maybe because there was no way to put the drinks down, but it was the funniest moment we ever had at that venue.....expect for him of course 🙂1 point
