    Just back in from a Queenage gig. Barring a couple of little niggles that I'm sure the majority would not even have noticed, it went very well indeed. We're still trying to find the right balance in older material which we like doing and the most popular stuff, but given it was only our third gig, things are looking great. There was a lady there who is a member of the Queen fan club. She said that she has seen A LOT of Queen tributes and thought we were excellent. The venue also gave us a cash bonus as we had such a great turnout. Hopefully a return booking will be had next year. All in all, a great night.

    "the symmetrical double-cutaway body ensures excellent access to every fret" Not with my hands it wouldn't!

    I have to say I'm guilty of buying Super Deluxe sets. I think I have all of the Rush ones, but they are very well put together. I also have all the Zappa ones, including the Halloween ones which are going for stupid money now.

    I'm fairly open minded on pricing and the like. The aim of the game is to make money, but basically all you're getting for £200 is a 5.1 mix and a few bits of paper. I'm a massive Kiss fan, but that's a step too far. I can stream everything else on the Super Deluxe for free. Don't need the other crap.

    Great stuff. Couldn't have hoped for a better fix than that.

    I think set it for £10k. It's gonna be more than that even if my very basic knowledge of such work is anywhere near close.

    Mmm. Pass.
  8. hiram.k.hackenbacker
    Can't see it. Must have sold.

    I can’t even comprehend how that wear occurs. Different playing styles I guess.

    Mrs.H has just given. The total is nearly up to £3k. Keep pushing 🤘

    I’ll just say this, as I know @AndyTravis probably won’t, in that the funds from the sale of the Ripper were to add towards what is going to be a fairly hefty invoice for all the works that need doing for Iris. £2,300 doesn’t come close to what Jen and Andy were promised they would be allocated only for the goal posts to have been shifted on them. I don’t see any harm in letting this roll for a bit so that Iris can get what she needs sooner rather than later.

    Just blew past 70%. Let’s get it done within 24 hours 🤘

    Woo-hoo. Nearly 50%. Keep going. Keep commenting. Keep this at the top 🤘
  16. hiram.k.hackenbacker
    Almost 20% to target already - woohoo!

    Nice one Clarky. I’m in.

    Sad to see this go up mate. I know how much you love it. In the unlikely event that there’s anyone reading this who doesn’t know @AndyTravis, I couldn’t recommend him higher.

    I've only ever had cause to ring Shure UK once, but they were very helpful when I did. Might be worth ringing them to see if they could repair/replace it?

    My first thought was Ibanez, but I can't find anything like it. Tried a reverse image search as well and drew a blank.

    I've had quite a few Stingrays of all types and ages. Of the ones I still have I would say the 2EQ Classic is probably my favourite. It's a beautifully put together bass and has that tone. In my opinion, the Stingray Specials are a different animal. I don't dislike them at all, but they're not the same.If I was going to spend some wedge on another Ray, I'd probably looking for something like this.
  22. hiram.k.hackenbacker
    Yeah I was trying avoid paying triple the £15 original selling price.
  23. hiram.k.hackenbacker
    No problem. Thanks for asking 👍
  24. hiram.k.hackenbacker
    Well, I did sell a bass, so could easily have fallen down the rabbit hole. I have managed to resist thus far, but thanks for reminding me that it hasn't sold yet 😍

    Or E-Spunk for short 😎
