It's a good idea. I did it for jsixties (great guy ), worked well. But I live in a backwater, so it's rare that I'd be able to contribute.

I bought David's Milestone III. Good clean transaction, really couldn't be better. I've dealt with him before and would happily do so again. Thanks!

Steve Garvey And, I love Everybody's Happy Nowadays. Can't play it though... :/

can't hug a drum machine. Especially because our singer's got it.

[quote name='51m0n' timestamp='1381235500' post='2236123'] Ebow on bass sounds amazing if you are a genius with it, but its insanely frustrating to control.... Of course if you are a fiftieth level dark lord of bass madness you use two at the same time:- [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xx1RccwlF5g[/media] [/quote] That is [i]bonkers[/i]. Four detuners on the headstock, and another on the bridge ... ?! I think. And some stuff I didn't understand at all - was he pushing on the back of the neck?

bookmarked for practice purposes... thanks chaypup

I'm not bidding because I've got one... (pink, as it happens).

[quote name='Shockwave' timestamp='1380542998' post='2226719'] And that attitude is the problem. How are current or future luthiers who do do this sort of thing supposed to learn if no one does anything? [/quote] This. [Disclaimer: Never bought a custom anything...]

Agree on £50. I might go a bit higher, but I'm stupid like that.

I bought Andy's Merlin jazz pup. Nice guy, quick turnround, good comms. Thanks Andy

Cool.

[quote name='Shaggy' timestamp='1380040894' post='2219983'] Sublime. My "go to" piece of music for the last 30 years, along with (strangely enough) the "Fantasia on a theme by Thomas Tallis" by Vaughan Williams [/quote] And that was the music Dad wanted for his funeral. Strangely enough.

Thank you all, all input welcome

I really liked all of that. After the first minute of Harmonium Bloke I started thinking "this would go well on hammer dulcimer", and then the kantele lady reinforced that. The Mandolin Men were fine too. And, now I know what the Clangers' Music Boat is

I've been a moderator (elsewhere). I appreciate the time and effort it takes. Thanks guys!

Laney BC120 combo, £110. No-name CAR Jazz, £80 from Mr Foxen. Not much in the way of gigs though...

Also, I didn't know Julian Assange was so talented.

I love this. My dad's favourite music ever, as well.
