  1. Just been practicing a little etude I found on YT - just some scales major up, minor down - so 1,3,5 in a major scale(A,Db,E), 5,3,1 (E,C,A) in a minor scale. The "natural" fingering in the major scale is 2nd, 1st, 4th finger but the fingering in the minor scale is 3rd, 4th, 1st. I hadn't played this before - requires you to swap the fingers that you start and finish the riff with. Much more difficult than you'd expect. Try it and see.
  2. I used this case with my Overwater J before selling it so shouldn't be an issue.
  3. I have an Overwater Hiscox case if the buyer of this wants to buy/trade.
  4. Disco 2000(AD) - Pulp
  5. This maybe? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/276209395622?hash=item404f5ce7a6:g:8TkAAOSwu~hlW6yt&amdata=enc%3AAQAIAAAA4E7zT2NzQaYPmeu91KX8xbcfQOMfAKBatXoK9BUfmtHmmw8H%2F9X1P3HmC9HNaBQBqW7Sut3MXWO5izY9hJezNFumx2e%2Bvx%2B6EfYdZytZq8qN1Y91hzSdld4ro%2B4Kq8KuYERlAZ1HrLtq0C4t047%2FAaXeShOt36YgkwrB4ORU5rCKlBLnI1sswilT%2BOdFvGTEQWm%2FmkAoN5IM6jI9tq8rinl8NeXyBGAcxzRezyQK7Ucerz0TFJXgaOLeQdCt22ZAkH6SlCB2vSash8isLSD2LTc1M4haqAKhdmXbloZcPS1V|tkp%3ABk9SR7Ddgp6LYw
  6. Check the neck break. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/126133701254?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=Uy6m256LS22&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=3arTyUkpQE-&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
  7. Raining in my heart - Buddy Holly
  8. (Don't leave me) Halfway to Paradise - Billy Fury
  9. I'm surprised that more bands don't do "A little less conversation..." by Elvis. Good catchy tune, great tempo and rhythm , lots of people know the song. Everything you'd think you'd want to get onto the setlist.
  10. Queen of the highway - The Doors
  11. Albatross - Fleetwood Mac (obviously)
  12. I have an ETS headless kit that would suit this perfectly. I don't have the cash or the required trade item but I'm a little wiser on options for a deheading. Thanks
  13. Got one in black. Definitely not a toy...good little basses...not to be underestimated. GLWTS
  14. Alone again, naturally - Gilbert O'Sullivan
  15. Ashdown MAG300 amp and 1x15 cab - ends tomorrow but no interest currently https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/285589978820?hash=item427e7d3ec4:g:5DEAAOSwEJ5k2LSR&amdata=enc%3AAQAIAAAAwMyAKj1FS3ZJM6H0m7B8XIaFj%2BgQBxWUil8%2FEykXfHlV%2F9Iodu2zY50Xqcfcnt2PrHqMVG01yOQ%2Bysw3PgNJ0HvHYILjMfRHz4oFc6l5MYTyy3p13NgMNcDTb%2Fo6Zv50%2B%2FiWeez7aAzNzO1Rbj0vmL8w7Qucaow8tLs3Iaor1WUH1yFu5lLyHvSg1kGz%2Fe%2BgQnjgvqY2GivwZ9DYy6o%2F5mIoUNu1gomNYMWAKcuVM5jFz7ia2ZtZRQ%2FKN%2FeqnujERA%3D%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR_K-tvmJYw
  16. Pink Cadillac - Bruce Springsteen
  17. Terry Chapman repaired a broke headstock on a Spector for me - virtually invisible. No excuse for this
  18. Mama, he's making eyes at me - Lena Zavaroni
  19. TBF it's possible to get away with tort and white/black. IMO sunburst and tort are the worst offenders, followed by non matching colours.
  20. Islands in the stream - Dolly and Kenny
  21. Basses that look like the colours were chosen by a 3 year old child - especially Tort scratchplates which don't match - black or sunburst bass with red tort.
  22. Must be even harder to find a left handed string at short notice. 😉😉
  23. Father figure - me cousin, George.
  24. Hatfield 1980 - EBTG
  25. My first bass was a Thunder 1a. IMO you shouldn't underestimate Westone basses, they are well respected by those who owned them, mostly in the 80s. It's unusual to see one for the price you quoted - it is difficult to gauge what a fair price is for Westone, though - you see them for £300 and for £1200 (one on ebay currently). If you like it, buy it but you might want to try something "less vintage " to see how gear has changed in the last 40 years.
