Hi chaps/ladies.... I got this message from a friend and as someone who plays more with a pick than fingers I don't feel qualified to answer. Anyone have suggestions on this? "Hi Gary - I wonder if you could help me! I have a blood blister and a regular blister on my plucking fingers and I have my first show with ******** on Saturday with a rehearsal beforehand. I only ever get blisters if I have been on holiday and not played for a few weeks or if I have been recording and playing for long periods of time. I had a total of 9 hours rehearsal at the weekend. My query is - should I carefully pop them now and hope they heal for Saturday or should I leave them? They're not as bulky as they were on Sunday but plasters don't work on stage as they come off and I have played on raw skin before and it kills! What would you do? Thanks! Sarah" Cheers for any help everyone

'Black' & 'White' are my two fave colours for basses..... but there should be more 'purple' basses in the world!

Bugg£r[/quote] Well according to a thread on one in the 'for sale' forum I should be asking £3500 because it's an original, 'pre-licence' model But actually.... it's not for sale..... Sorry!

As many low E bass slides as necessary until my brain re-engages.... works every time!

[quote name='silddx' post='798726' date='Apr 7 2010, 02:20 PM']Just about to order a tree of life. Custom order for $30. They got back to me by email immediately, bodes well for their customer service.[/quote] Their customer service is EXCELLENT. I received mine within days & because I bought 3 sets he chucked in a free extra set free!

[quote name='Golchen' post='798603' date='Apr 7 2010, 12:40 PM']Fair enough! Actually I meant that some of them didn't look like they were put on straight (not cut wonky) - which is up to the 'user', but still potential to look naff.[/quote] Ah, I see Yep, you have to take a [i]little[/i] time to line them up from all angles..... otherwise they [i]will[/i] look wrong!
