The ones that blew me away as a kid, and made me want to see live bands.... Slade Alive Curved Air..Live Genesis, Seconds Out Jethro Tull, Bursting Out I have many more live albums in my collection, but those few, at that particular time, changed my life completely

Nailed it!

Now THAT is absolutely spot on! Love that paint job, and its a P, perfect!

Just seen it too, sad news indeed. Rest Peacefully Charlie.

I have no words.....but thank you Ped for breaking this horrible news to us all in such a perfect way. RIP chap.

This is awesome...well worth waiting for!! BC was the last of my regular visited websites to go dark, SO much better now...Thanks Ped!

Barefaced use Roqsolid for their gear, can't be a bad endorsement. https://www.roqsolid.co.uk/wp/amp-and-cab-covers-roqsolid-protection/

Ive got an old Squier PJ I steampunked up a bit ages ago, its got a more battered brass looking bridge and string tree on it now too

This is exactly how I started playing bass. At age 43 I worked out it was the bass lines I had been singing along to since I was about 12, not the guitar solos!!

Good luck Blue.....thanks for the update!

I still have my Eden rig, 4x10 xlt and a nemesis 400 watt amp (rs400??) Too damn heavy to gig with nowadays, but I love the sound it produces!!

Sounds like fun Lozz, what sort of stuff do ya do??

Found a pic This isn't mine, its owned by the basschatter who put me onto the mod.

the sub or the scales? Sub was from PMT Northampton about 3 years ago The scales were off amazon as i recall, very handy for weighing up my basses! re the PU being hot, there was a thread ages ago addressing this, I ended up soldering in a small resistor to calm it down a bit as in its standard format the output sound was horrible, it so very nearly went back to PMT.

This is mine, its got a chunky leather strap on it which may have added a tiny bit. lbs or kilos, I have both lol.

When I were a lad, I could never get to see enough live bands so live albums were pure heaven for me, so:- Slade - Slade Alive Yes - Yessongs Curved Air Live Genesis - Seconds Out Jethro Tull - Bursting Out These 5 pretty much defined my youth, and I still listen to all of then regularly today, I love the energy they put out over relevant studio albums.

113, above average it seems, I'll take that! Worst on the mistuning section, which figures if you've ever heard me sing!!!

Sky arts is on freeview channel 11 no need to have any pay to view rubbish. Arrgh, just re read what you said..ignore me I'm an idiot!

Thanks for putting 'Ain't no Love...' up, my take on it always sounded wrong before! 👌

This is awesome and what a line up of talent 801 were!! never heard of em before now, but I've got to get 801 live!

I'm with you on that, I absolutely HATED having a Jazz with 2 volumes, if I had kept it long enough a Kiogon loom with vol and blend would have been a must have!!

Never knew he played with Gary Moore. Excellent!

Thats a tee I would wear, especially around guitarists!! many happy returns bud!

I really liked that, agree the middle feels like it needs some lyrics, and good job on the consultancy Stew, bass was very ...present!

Yup I get some great sonic ideas at home noodling, but as soon as I try em in a band setting it all goes to pot. I've been trying for ages to get a good synth sound for the intro to 'Dakota' but nothing seems to work To be fair I only have a Zoom B3 so maybe I was aiming a little too high!
