  2. [quote name='waynepunkdude' post='352045' date='Dec 11 2008, 06:53 PM']While I was looking on the Dean site I found [url="http://www.bill-lewington.co.uk/Dean/basses/images/large/ZoneBass.jpg"]this[/url] and fell in love a little.[/quote] I found that as well....then I had the memory surgically removed!
  3. Do the decent thing,refund and sod off.

  10. Great vid.Type in 12 string bass in the YT search engine......

    Thumb Rests

    I actually have one fitted to my Status Groove.It's oak,and runs from the pup to the end of the neck.
  13. Such attitude in his playing,yet laid back on stage.What a player.
  14. Skoda Fabia(no jokes please).Get 2 basses,1 2x12 cab,1 flightcased head plus box of oddments in. Of course,it does mean I get to drive it from the roof rack!
  15. I work at a timber merchants,and quite a few of my customers are musicians,both amateur and semi-pro. So one evening after work,I pulled up at my guitar players house only to find that one of my customers was doing the roof next door. Hellos were exchanged,and then I got the "whats in the case?"question.So I told him(it was the Status),and he said"Oh yeah,I used to play. I packed it up about 4 years ago".When asked what he used,he sais"A Musicman.But I sold it." I was gobsmacked.Sell a MM?The look of regret on his face said it all.He sheepishly admitted that he had to sell it.Had to!A kidney,yes.Or maybe selling your least loved child/sibling/parent for medical experiments.But not a Musicman. So,tell me your tales from the ex-players book of excuses.
  16. Keyboard as a kid;hated it. Acoustic guitar in teens,graduated to electric,realised that I was crap. Offered bass gig at 17,borrowed bass,loved it.Still playing 22 years on.
  17. Oh yes,turn it down please.The county of Surrey is trying to get some sleep!
  18. Yellow Pages,C for chiropracter,O for osteopath or F for fork-lift truck. Anytime soon,methinks.
  19. Prime Stilton has so far included Maneater(Hall&Oates),Walking on Sunshine,Celebrate(Kool&the Gang).
  20. Good bits Happy to play solid 8th notes. In time. Pick up tunes quick. Can take direction/criticism. Own transport. Will buy a round. Can tune the guitar player's gear. Happy to stay at the back(thus allowing singers and guitar players to get the kudos. Bad bits Wrecked back. Going grey. Occasional flatulance attacks. Never happy totally with current rig/basses. Can't slap. Grumpy wee sh*te.
  21. I'm the slowest bass player;I take my shoes off to count to 20(and drop my pants to get to 21)!
  22. I used to own a Corvette $$;great sound,I even liked the neck!But two things made me sell it;the shear back bending weight of it(I have a long term lower back problem)and the Just-a-nut III which used to cut my left index finger!
  23. Excellent cabs.I've got a 2x12 coupled to a Markbass head.Very warm clear sound.
