  2. All over the BBC news channel. All other news is cancelled today. RIP Terry
  3. [quote name='TimR' timestamp='1454140625' post='2966787'] Ok. Who put 91-100? [/quote] More importantly, [i]who[/i] is between 91 and 100?
  4. [quote name='chris_b' timestamp='1453764156' post='2962639'] Charlie Chandler at Hampton Wick or Chandler's at Kew. [/quote] Not owned by the same people apparently.
  5. Indonesian made now.
  6. 4 string P bass. I did dabble with a 5 once
  7. Yes he is right, why dont you? I,ll give you a couple of quid for it!
  8. The Jam _ Sound Affects George Harrison - Cloud 9 Dire Straits - Brothers in arms.
  9. I use Andy from Chandlers in Kew/Richmond. He does all my work and tells me what needs doing and what doesnt. (If he thinks I,m wasting money on something that I think I need doing) http://www.chandlerguitars.co.uk/workshop.php
  10. [quote name='mep' timestamp='1453239771' post='2957822'] Behringer. It's cheap but i only use it on 3 songs and not all the way through. [/quote] +1 Except I only use it on 2.
  11. I have a USA Standard P Bass which is mint as I bought it brand new and am very careful with it on the rare occasions it gets gigged. OTOH I also bought a Nate Mendel which is also brand new but has some relicing on it, which I am not so careful with. Go figure.
  12. The Hotel California is closed tonight. RIP
  13. I once dreamed I had a gig and the car broke down and I was panicking I would be late. I tried to get a taxi but coudnt. Tried to a get a train but there where no trains. I even tried to call my bandmates to tell them I was going to be late but I couldnt get through. No matter what I tried, obstacles were put in front of me to prevent me from getting there. Bizarre.
  14. I took a couple of my basses into a local shop for a minor set up and to have the nut re-cut, and was talking to the guy behind the counter about one of the basses that I was thinking of selling and he offered to sell it for me. Apart from the obvious commission for the shop what are the pros and cons of doing this?
  15. I love the Precision for its plug n play simpleness. I cant be bothered with fancy basses and multiple knobs that do little or nowt. I too have the Nate Mendel which I have left alone. I like the Q P pickups, the hotter sound suits some songs. I have 3 P basses actually.
  16. [quote name='blue' timestamp='1452653193' post='2952108'] I couldn't name 1 Megadeath song. But I'm different, I'm evolved. While I don't know Megadeath,I know Lemmy started the band back in the mid 70s. Blue [/quote] You taking the piss?
  17. I was never really interested in all that prog stuff, King Crimson, Yes etc. I only really listened to Genesis after Phil Collins took over. I know, I,m shallow.
  18. Sound And Vision. I love the long intro before the vocals finally kick in. Also The Man Who Sold The World. Nirvana did a good cover of that.
  19. I,m losing all my childhood heroes. RIP
  20. I believe it is. I have no reason to doubt it.
  21. What is the name of the guy playing the Jaguar?
  22. Loving this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bGp1a4O29oI
  23. Before the iron curtain fell, the eastern bloc countries had to make their own ' Western Copies' This offering looks like something from our favourite guitar improvers workshop. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QDn5DXX_1Tg
  24. [quote name='jonnythenotes' timestamp='1452104642' post='2946488'] What is the weight of the bass...? I am interested, but the weight is a pretty critical thing to me.... Thanks.. [/quote] I have a Nate Mendel and it comes in about 8 and a half pounds on my scales.
