  1. Not yet though middle aged eyesight is getting worse. Only need them for reading and phone/pc so I suppose at some point the fretboard may become blurred.
  2. Same, just use regular scale on my Mustangs
  3. Can`t remember where it was but I read something along the lines of if you want a Precision to sit in the mix without jumping out at you to cut at around 400/500, whereas with a Jazz to achieve the same cut at around 1000/1200. Certainly worked for me, up until that point I`d never been able to get a Jazz to sound as I wanted whereas this just delivered.
  4. I have actually played a pub that`s about half a mile from my place. I drove. I was depping for a covers band doing two 1hr sets. I had two basses, a combo, an extension speaker, and a case containing leads etc. If it had been a 30min originals set with provided backline I like to think I would have walked.
  5. Just a song which has got lead singer & both backing singers on the choruses, plus a lead guitar solo, this covers everything we do.
  6. I’m pretty much where @BigRedX is on this, if the audience had a good time then all is well & good for me.
  7. I found the Fender 74s to be quite decent, put them in a Squier VM77 and they really changed the bass.
  8. Of course, I should have sussed it by your user-name, doh! But yes, it`s def the BT12 you need, just the lefty version.
  9. BT12 is the model you’re after, all you need is one spanner to undo the nut on the front of the tuner on the headstock. I had them on all of my post 2012 Fenders. Edit - I may still have one @uk_lefty, I’ll have a look later on.
  10. It’s funny, the younger me feels really let down by this lack of rock star extravagance but the current me applauds this wholeheartedly as Mr G being both grounded and aware of the worlds bigger issues. Well done to him.
  11. Makes good business sense. And that crypto chamber must have been a godsend over the weekend.
  12. Just watching The Pretenders, really good. I got about 4 songs in on Blondies set before having to give up, good band but her vocals, nah.
  13. Very good bassist, in lockdown I finally put my mind to learning the bassline for Girls & Boys and it`s a joy to play, plus the most recognisable part of the song.
  14. Elton & his band handing out a lesson in how to play & sound good. Next time he should def lend his mic to Axl.
  15. I’d like for the headline slots on the Pyramid stage Fri - Taylor Swift/something modern Sat - The Sex Pistols (if they’d reform of course) Sun - Jeff Lynnes ELO
  16. It does highlight the playing of people like Cliff Williams & Adam Clayton as being more important to the songs/bands than would have originally been thought, playing like that takes discipline and has its own skill.
  17. Yep, reminds me of people trying to offload their old fridge/washing machine etc put in the front garden with a “Free to a Good Home” sign on it. Get no takers so put a sign on it saying £50 - gets stolen overnight.
  18. She does the Andertons “Sound Like” videos (amongst other musical stuff I suppose).
  19. Yep I found the regular ABM cabs a tad dark/bassy so I sealed the ports and added in wadding, made them a lot tighter sounding. Probably why my ABM PRO NEOs sound similar.
  20. We played the Skegness and Minehead ones, very well set up & professionally run. The stage was huge at Skegness.
  21. Def the latter, the modern phenomenon of looking to find something to be offended by.
  22. Yep, playing well but I wish they’d sort the volume of the lead vocals, ok he’s not that good anymore but in some places he can hardly be heard.
  23. Generation Sex now in desperate need of either a tuner or someone to tell Jones & James to play the songs in the same key.
