  1. Arrived today - it feels like a very nice bass. Going to plug it in shortly.
  2. Time on my side - The Stones
  3. Obviously Pink Floyd's "A Nice Pair"
  4. Quality workmanship - looks like a Stevie Wonder or Ray Charles model.
  5. Guess what...go on have a guess...you know you want to. Wanna clue?? OK, it rhymes with "thucking looseness rastards". Failed to collect again - instead they sent an email saying that they had called and the parcel was unavailable. BS!! The seller has the bass with him at work at a distribution centre with security and cctv. He has forewarned security to expect the courier. Bastards just can't be rrrsed to do their job properly. Last night I spent over an hour trying to ensure collection which included a callback to me today. You will be surprised when I tell you that this didn't happen. It's like a comedy of errors - fools to the left of me, jokers to the right - P2Go / Parcelforce couldn't provide a shittier service if they tried. Back to their website shortly to give them some abuse. Thankfully the seller is prepared to drop it at the Parcelforce depot on his way home.
  6. Massachussetts - The Bee Gees.
  7. Needles and Pins - The Searchers
  8. At this price I would have expected this to have flown....I'm sure this would suit so many players - would make a great back up for regular Ray players. No pleasing some people.
  9. Cantonese Boy - Mick Karn and others
  10. I was fooling myself - more chance of getting a whale up my rrrs than P2Go honouring their "guarantee". Collection now re-scheduled for tomorrow 🤣😂😆😂🤣 - I won't be holding my breath though.
  11. I really like the look of this but I have yet to find a Ray that I've gelled with - that includes the Sterling 2HH that I bought just before Xmas. GLWTS
  12. Am I alone in wanting to see more photos of that body? Looks amazing. I think that @itu is taunting us.
  13. I'm not convinced by the .135 in the 5 string sets so I've been ordering a D'Addario .50 to go with the Rotosound 65-115 since their individual tapewound strings are outrageously expensive (£18 compared to £8). I think that StringsDirect are the only UK stockists of the Rotos individual tapewounds. In real life, i.e. steels, I wouldn't dream of a .115 as the lowest gauge string in a set so the .50 is the best solution for me.
  14. I was just going to recommend you... @PaulThePlug if you have any concerns about how Andy would do this, check the thread for my Silk Bass.
  15. Don't forget: THERE IS NO OTHER BASS LIKE IT OUT of THE 100 MADE THANK YOU FOR READING THIS VERY IMPORTANT INFO FOR THIS ONE of A KIND BASS. ( I'm not sure how he can continue to ignore the other 99 which are exactly the same)
  16. Shout to the top - Style Council
  17. In the navy - Village People
  18. Who dunnit - Tavares
  19. Can't see anything on line about it being for sale. Don't expect Trujillo to ever sell it.
  20. One of Gibson's first electric guitars was an ali bodied, uke sized Electro acoustic. Courtesy of Pawn Stars.
  21. Shame, shame, shame - Shirley & company
  22. Mindless violence - Attila the Stockbroker and The Newtown Neurotics
  23. I've been watching some reviews on the Dimension bass on YT. IMO some people really shouldn't bother - many of the reviews show how not to play a bass and merely set out to highlight how much the videos are "about me" rather than the bass. In suppose they are entitled to their 15 mins of fame...
  24. I've heard some negative comments about these basses - poor low B, lacking character....I think it sounds amazing here.
  25. How much is that doggy in the window? - Trad??
