  1. Oh my god oh my god oh my god...

    Billy Sheehan 'liked' my Facebook comment.

    You can take me now. Life is complete.

  2. So I got myself a new band!

      Great, looks like it really will be a House of Fun in that band

  3. Got an old Badass II bridge on a knakcered jazz i bought.  Whats the going rate for these nowadays?  Im more of a BBOT man

  4. Bugger; just found out that a friend from my previous job died today. She was in ICU with Covid for a few weeks, and was even posting from there a few days ago, but didn’t make it out.

     I’ve known her for ten years. She was funny, kind and leaves 2 young kids (7 and 4), as well as her poor husband. 
    I’ve said it before, but this year can do one.

  5. There are two things I can tell you about rotator cuff tendonitis.

    1. It hurts.

    2. It really, really hurts.

      Well this thread must have tempted fate as I managed to tweak my dodgy shoulder on Sat and have been in some discomfort ever since. Wasn`t too bad sitting at home watching snooker, a tad more difficult whilst at work.

      Physio helped mine but only after I’d had a couple of steroid injections into the shoulder joint itself, it freed up the movement really well. I still have a problem now (dislocated mine 3 times so all sorts of probs there) but it’s manageable, just have to be aware not so much what I’m able to do but what the limits of my injury are (as I can lift & move much heavier items than is safe for me).

      One of the worst areas in the body to damage, the rotator cuff muscles and associated tendons/ligaments.

  8. After months of mucking about on guitar because it was more interesting, I picked up one of my basses this evening and played.  It was so much more satisfying.  I'll always be a bass player.

      Same here, I`m currently loving my recently acquired Gibson Les Paul Studio, but when I pick up a bass I feel "at home". I class myself as a bassist who can play guitar, I could never claim to be a guitarist.

  9. Finally caved. MIM classic 50’s P bass purchased on reverb last night. The mrs is gonna go absolutely ape! 😬

  10. CoronaVirus Gear Sale? - How many of you are considering or are already selling bass gear because of financial losses incurred by not being able to work?

    1. Lozz196

      Lozz196

      As I left my gigging band at the start of the year I was intending on selling all that I don`t need anymore. Think the financial impact is gonna make me put that on hold, why advertise if no-ones got any dosh.

  11. Just found out my aunt has died from the Corona virus...

  12. Dubplates and mastering have done their magic as usual. Amazing black magic voodoo stuff these people achieve.

    You can hear the mastered edition here, pressing next.

  13. Just recorded a very rough punk demo for my next song on an iPad propped up next to the Trace Bin. The bass is my new pink 51 replica. It rips through the song.

     

  14. You know that feeling where you contemplate selling everything you really don't need and keep the bare essentials? Yeah, something like that.

    1. Lozz196

      Lozz196

      I have more gear than I need, but I do use it all which is my rationale for keeping it.

  15. It's such a small thing, but I really want to put black knobs on my VM 70's Jazz. The chromed ones are nice, but there's something about those black plastic ones!

    1. Lozz196

      Lozz196

      Doing the same to my VM77, best playing Jazz I`ve ever had so am upgrading pickups/pots/knobs etc so it sounds as good as it plays.

  16. Does anybody know where you can buy replacement logos for speaker cabinets (I have an Aguilar cab that got knocked and snapped the logo)? Tried searching and not having much luck.

  17. Playing Rebellion in Manchester on Sunday!  Can't bloody wait!

      Ah sorry, just saw the "in Manchester" bit - thought you meant the Rebellion Punk Festival in Blackpool in August. My bad!

      Great news, we`re on on the Friday. No idea which stage yet, but the waiting for that is all part of the fun. Which band is it you`re playing there with, will make sure I`m there.

  19. Just gone wireless... why didn't I do this years ago? 😻 

  20. Revisiting playing with a pick on my P bass. Not called a Precision for nothing!  'The boys are back in town'. I'm using the really thick injection molded ones, 50p each from London Guitar Studio - but you can't slot them between the s'plate and body at the top which is where a pick belongs.

  21. Not one but two cups of coffee today. I am a total badass

  22. Our trombone dude passed away suddenly and unexpectedly on Wednesday. Whole band is stunned and bereft... can't believe we'll never see him again. Such a lovely guy.
    RIP Stewy the 'Bone. </3

  23. Playing/jamming out today with a bass I’m selling - dangerous for sellers remorse or what?! ;) 

  24. is there any way the mods can block me from looking at the for sale forums?

    i think i have a problem

  25. Hooray...Midwinter's Day was yesterday...the days will be getting longer and summer will be here again "soon"...
