Light and short scale is one thing. Cheap with a good B, plus light and short scale. Not so simple. Then you have to find a lefty. Good luck.

Prima was batting way over his average with Maione. Great voice and beautiful to boot. Left her penniless.

Depends. If you’re intending to cover certain songs accurately, then yes, you do. If you’re happy to compromise and play the low notes an octave higher, then no, you don’t (even though it’s wrong and you know it 😂). Fiver all the way for me when required. The rest of the time, I’m happy with fours.

Agreed. I don’t think anyone has anything to worry about. Just hope the monies are returned 👍

Technically, it could be either/both depending on how this plays out, but I really don't think any of the alleged aggrieved parties have anything to worry about.

Let’s nip this slander thing in the bud shall we? What harm has been caused to the individual as a result of what has been said? That is for the person in question to prove. If he has the cajones to ‘brief’ himself up, I believe he will open himself up to a can of worms. He would potentially have to allege something along the lines of ‘I have been unable to sell anything in X’ directly because of what ‘Y’ said and it is as a direct result and he would have to provide evidence to support it. Personally, I wouldn’t worry about the threat of slander. All in my humble opinion of course.

As previously discussed @ped, I’ve historically advised against these types of threads. That said, having read all the posts thus far, I don’t see anything that would potentially harm any defence (everything here is legally disclosable - if it gets that far). Providing everything is kept factual and that those facts can be supported, I think it’s a good idea to leave it open. After all, we don’t know the extent of the alleged deception(s). There maybe more than we know of at this stage. It’s your choice ultimately, but I don’t see an issue providing this doesn’t veer into wild speculation and/or threats - which it hasn’t thus far. IMHO of course. Hope you guys get your money back 🤞.

I’ve actually been seriously considering putting some of them up for sale. There is a bass for sale that I’m gassing for and it would be a significant investment.

Swap it for a Stingray? 😜

+1 for a David Wilson. Click the build link in my sig for photos.

I wake up most mornings feeling like I have in my fretting hand. I know what my condition is and it’s nowhere near as serious as yours, but I really don’t envy you. I wish you all the best in your recovery.

You started off with an easy one then 😂. Nice work 👍.

There are many things that don't make sense and increasing your blood pressure over something so trivial probably features in it. Mod has spoken. End of. You may not like it, but them's the roolz innit.

I think the clues are there 😉.

Fixed 😏. Yeah, me too. Love that song.

The re-recording of these tracks is turning out to be an interesting process. The people involved have been given carte blanche to change whatever they want and it's starting to sound quite different as a result. As COVID obstructed our use of recording facilities, I decided to pay for a session drummer to record live drums remotely rather than opting for 'an out of the box' solution and I'm really happy with both tracks he recorded for us. Next up is keys, then lead vocals and backing vocals. Once that's done, we'll start layering the brass on top.

I didn’t dislike it 😬

I think @Chiliwailer tried both at BD when he bought his.

Mmm. The Specials sound different from normal Stingray's anyway, so the definitive answer would have to come from someone who has tried both versions of the Special to make that comparison. If I had to guess, I would say yes, as my one has a pleasing sound when switched to the rear, but it's not the same as any of my single H Stingrays.

She a right handed player. I would imagine she has filmed herself on a front facing camera, hence the image flip.

That popped up on my You Tube feed yesterday as I follow Divinity Roxx. The thing that does my head in is watching her as a lefty. Surely someone could have flipped that for her. Other than that, I quite like it. What would be wrong is going to all that effort to get something that sounded close to the original. IMHO of course 🙃.

Give Tim a shout and see if he’s taking orders again yet.... https://www.originalscratchplates.com

The body on that JC is enormous.

I had tickets to see them next month. Gig postponed ☹️.
