Gotta be headless...IMHO of course

i'm loving the 30-90 guage strings i've currently got on the Warwick. All i've done is play L42 tunes since!

I miss my Status KingBass and reissue Jazz bass - both great basses, both sold on the spur of the moment....doh!

Mustang Sally springs to mind......

[quote name='Russ' timestamp='1324498673' post='1475045'] Dave's a good bloke, and an awesome guitarist. Last time I heard from him he was playing in the pit for We Will Rock You, and also doing Wakeman's band. So Jay Aston's taken up music again, has she? Last I heard she was teaching music and dance at a school in Bromley. Let's just hope she never gets roped into a Buck's Fizz reunion. [/quote] HI Dude....guess you've not seen that Jay is back in 'The Original Bucks Fizz' with Mike and Cheryl....? Dave's no longer doing WWRY and has been doing odds and sods teaching etc and doing the Fizz gigs with Cheryl's hubby on bass of course! Jay's Stage school is still going in Bromley too

WELCOME!! (from a fellow South Londoner!)

Gigged for years with an OLP MM bought for 67 quid on Evilbay. Only sold it recently as loving my Korean Warwick Corvette (still i'm guessing classed by some as a budget bass).

[quote name='Russ' timestamp='1324405028' post='1473926'] He used to play in a local band called Moondigger who were very, very good - shred-happy, poppy prog rock, basically, which stood him in good stead for his stint in It Bites. [/quote] Moondiggers guitar player is a pal of mine, Dave Colquhoun who's a cracking player - all the Wakeman stuff with Lee too. Now currently doing a mixtyure of stuff including propping up his missus' band.

[quote name='AttitudeCastle' timestamp='1324026722' post='1469826'] I'm the same but not with lighter strings! I felt 45-105s a little too floppy [/quote] Really? I must be getting old!

Hi all, Been largely ignoring general bass stuff apart from the odd gig, but in the last couple of days i've been picking up my Warwick and have a twang. Nothing really inspired me and it was all a bit samey etc.....then...i had a wander to Denmark Street today, and much to my surprise i found some Trace Elliot light gauge strings in a bargain bin for £5.....so...i bought some, strung the bass up with them....and instant inspiration! They really are too light (unless you are a certain Isle of Wight residen), but it's amazing how the change from the usual 45 to 105's to a lighter gauge seemingly gave me back some sparkle. Didnt even need to tweak the basses neck either Good times.... G

HOW MUCH!"!!!! - history or no history, certainly wouldn't warrant any of my hard earned.

that looks a great bass and sounds nice in the clips

all the best for the future guys

Great dealings with Matt - speedy comms and payments etc - good guy

Great version- although i miss the guitar from the original She's a cracking singer...

Love mine..

Great bass - bottom pic sums it up dude!

...a Status Kingbass styled bass for £500?

well done mate. Only advice i can give is do the adjustments in small stages, makes it easier to undo if you don't like the results.

[quote name='danweb22' timestamp='1317383412' post='1390126']Ah very true! haha New bass ordered day? NBOD?[/quote] :-)

[quote name='Doddy' timestamp='1317380327' post='1390059'] I agree,I love working on something new,struggling a bit,and then working harder until I get it. It's immensely satisfying. [/quote] Well said that man
