  1. We've been asked by a paying punter to add all the usual crap for their wedding later this year, they are paying so that's that. The songs are actually mostly ok really just done to death, brown eyed girl etc.
  2. Even though im terrible with the misery stick I have a real thing for them, that looks like a lovely one! Enjoy.
  3. I'll report back, she will be doing it this week all being well, has your wood cracked or just a gentle hump formed? Mine is quite isolated to the post area, must be really tight and this humid weather has not helped I bet. I'm going to let her show me the basses they have on sale when I collect it, could be an expensive mistake!
  4. [URL=http://s997.photobucket.com/user/stingraypete/media/Mobile%20Uploads/2016-07/20160716_102806_zpslovuos3y.jpg.html][IMG]http://i997.photobucket.com/albums/af100/stingraypete/Mobile%20Uploads/2016-07/20160716_102806_zpslovuos3y.jpg[/IMG][/URL] She's going to shorten the post as we think it's too long now the body has started to settle, it's having a once over and some shellac in the crack after, fingers crossed it will be ok, not a cheap hobby though eh?!
  5. Ta mate I've just dropped it off at Tim Tofts, bit like taking a Kia Picanto into a vintage Ferrari restoration specialists!
  6. Just noticed some crazing on the rear of my Gedo, thought it was a nice bit of age related checking beginning then I realised it was directly behind the sound post! It's a solid top ply back bass so that must be tight as hell in there right? I'm hoping a shave of the post and possibly relocating it a tad will solve it our do you think this is really bad news? It's never had a pro set up so now might be the time for a full examination.
  7. We have employed a one person can veto a song choice rule in our band, we've decided that there must be enough songs that we all like and hopefully the audience will too, it's a bit of an odd set but it's getting tweaked at each gig.
  8. Oh yes I have heard of the mine, I've transferred my savings there for safe keeping.
  9. You can't move here in Nigeria for princes, we keep trying to give away our money but everyone thinks it is a scam.
  10. I really like it, I wish I was a left hooker now!
  11. I read it as Roy Cropper!
  12. If you send me the cash via western union transfer I'll forward you the goods straight from Nigeria dave_bass5 :-)
  13. I've never managed to make the correct call as to wether the audience will like the band I'm in at the time, boring old blues band for a school/college leaving doo,they loved us! Same the other way, 80th birthday with an indie rock covers band, the dance floor was full all night! Flip side too where I thought we would do well we haven't, funny old world.
  14. I've got a fairly big Genz Benz rig and a pair of RCF 735s I've never tried the pair of 735s as a bass amp, I can only imagine epic and heft would be even more than the Genz!
  15. I can't understand how a company in so much debt is even allowed to buy out another company! Fender could do with going under and starting again really,I can't see how else they will ever balance the books?
  16. At least it's not just me then
  17. Feck! Did it end up with a musicman pickup?
  18. Part of me wants to hear his version of livin' on a prayer!
  19. Got to be this week!
  20. I'm normally a ninja with it!
  21. [quote name='dannybuoy' timestamp='1468310650' post='3089944'] You should be able to fix that with superglue and sandpaper! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rTVScFJoe24 [/quote] I'll have a look at that later, ta
  22. I thought a fraudster active was going to be the latest new bass chat fad bass "I've just ordered a fraudster active, five string with a maple finger board,can't wait!".
  23. Here's hoping! Ha Maybe it needs an elaborate tale, Jimi Hendrix did it with a spliff?
