  1. I've never got along with Musicman basses... So why do I suddenly have GAS for a 5 string 'ray? Odd...

      In fairness, I find myself having a hankering for them from time to time too, and they are literally the one bass tone I have never liked.

  3. Good lord, how expensive are Mim Fenders now!! Nearly £700 for an Mim p bass!! I remember when you could get one for £300ish new

      I remember when a can of Coke went from 30p to 33p. It was a damn outrage. It was also 1985.

      Agreed. It was such a wonderful surprise today - that thing I didn't know I wanted but now I'm so happy that it's here. I may actually be irrationally happy about this.

  8. Just received a call from an agency trying to sell me loft insulation....

    I live in a ground floor flat!!

      I had a great call from O2 trying to re-new my contract. Hard sell fell flat when the guy said - 'you live in Rathfriland, ah, you must know George there, he knows half the town'. I said 'I guess I'm in the other half' and you could hear the air go out of his balloon.

  9. 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.

  10. Sad day. Lost a dearly loved ex-colleague to cancer this morning.

  11. Had a low profile on here recently....Mum died on 27th June following a stroke and bleed on the brain.

    Her suffering has come to an end.

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

  13. Briefly conversing with James Lomenzo via Instagram made my Easter, never mind the chocolate!

      YES!!! Nice one. He seems like a top bloke from the demo videos he's done. Let me guess - the Hyperdrive came up a few times? ;)

  14. I have unnerving GAS for a 6 string, in particular an Ibanez SR1206. Perhaps it's something I ate...

      What you want is to swing by my place and have a fiddle on the Maruszczyk 6 I got last year. Go on.....you know you want to.

  15. Belfast Primark latest: Fire has so far destroyed stock worth £24.99.

      Well played sir. As a nearly local resident to Belfast that made me laugh. Well played indeed.

  16. What? With a few changes a Joyo British can be made into a VT Bass-a-like?! Joyo British incoming then!

      Well, I mean - how many overdrives is too many overdrives, right?

      Sooooooo.........does that mean you can work your magic and turn this into a useable pedal instead of a glorified paperweight?

      Oh really? I have a Joyo (or maybe it’s a Harley Benton) American Sound pedal. It’s an awesome overdrive but the bypass sucks and it’s just a plain noisy pedal.
