  1. I read somewhere that this was the first British record to reach number 1 in America.
  2. And he plays with his thumb too! 😄
  3. Mmm! .. let me think. 1. Limelight 1963 Precision in Sonic Blue. 2. Fender P USA in Olly White circa 2008 3. Fender P MIM LPB 4. Squier bitsa P with SDPB1 pick up 5. Yamaha BB 5 string.
  4. I still love the look of ashtrays though. I mean, look at how cool Jet Harris looks!!
  5. Shame they are not willing to post it. I may have been interested.
  6. I think the original Fender Pick up covers were supposed to block interference from electric lights or summat. The bridge ones acted as mutes or dampeners. I craved after a pair to put on my sunburst/tort P Bass, but rapidly took them off as they did indeed get in the way.
  7. That guy reminds me of that 50's throwback Mark Lamarr! 😊
  8. And it seems to have worked.
  9. This used to be mine. I bought it off of former basschat member 'Discreet' a couple of years back. A lovely bass modelled on a 62 or 63. I sold it on and bought a Sonic Blue one instead. Incidentally, This is Dakota Red NOT Fiesta Red.
  10. Welcome to the Limelight Club. Here is my sonic blue 63 P Bass I had made early this year.
  11. I once wore a T shirt at a gig a year or two ago. It had a picture of Darth Vader saying ' I am your father' emblazoned across it. I noticed our guitarist wetting himself with laughter everytime he looked over at me. During the interval I asked him what was so funny and he replied that my guitar strap was covering some of the letters and made it look like 'I am fat!' 🤬
  12. I love a P bass. In fact I have four of them. 😁
  13. The presence of another bass player in the room staring at my left hand turns me to quivering jelly. 😥 Its usually when I,m playing something dead simple like an 8 to the bar ACDC song as well, So I cant show off!! 😁
  14. I love all the stuff on irs. When they were signed to Warner’s they got to commercial for my tastes. That bloody awful shiny happy people was the kiss of death for them. IMHO
  15. Is this still going on?? 😧 Come on! - Tell us who's won!! 🎸 😁
  16. Well, Thats upset the dog! - He still wont come back inside the house!! 🤬
  17. Another option. But the above advice seems to be working at present. 😋
  18. Any news Linus? Is nearly August now. 🤔
  19. Cheers Reggaebass. I will have to remove the neck to get to the adjuster, but will give it a go.
  20. Hmm. Do I need to loosen it or tighten it?? 🤔
  21. You go to the Rotosound website and look to see who endorses them, and post it on here. 😂
  22. Has he been Knighted? I must have missed that!
  23. The action above the 7th fret on my P Bass has increased rapidly over the passed few weeks. It still seems OK on the lower part of the neck. Will lowering the action help? Or is this a truss rod tweak?
