  1. I put a plea in items wanted to no avail. So please guide me. Maybe a pic would help… I have lost one of the long screws and associated spring from my Jazz Bass bridge . You can only buy in packets but I would prefer one that isnt going to stand out by being shiny and new. Can anyone help me please? 🙏 Here is the bridge missing a screw.
  2. Kirsty classics Kite and Electric Landlady have been reissued on audiophile-quality vinyl. No need to stress the excellence if these releases. Amazon price them each at £35. 😬 I will accept £25 the pair, UK post included.
  3. Great communication on our recent deal - a trustworthy Basschatter!
  4. His son Adam played for them live for some years (visible or not, I don’t know)… I wouldve thought any decent keyboard player would have wanted to remain anonymous 😂
  5. Mick was a really good bass player who certainly impressed me. Fly Guitars - an excellent resource - did an interview with him which explains the genesis of this instrument. https://www.flyguitars.com/interviews/mickhawksworth3.php
  6. Pretty sure Rick only played with them on one studio track and was paid in beer! Can you really see the man who ate a curry in stage with Yes staying behind a curtain? I can’t!
  7. Effortless transaction… again! Deal with confidence.👏
  8. This is truly a classic thread… Stop me if I have told this one before… In 1980 I had a band modelled on the Pretenders, whom I had seen and fallen in love with. Our Chrissie was an Australian girl who ended up being deported I believe - anyway she left us looking for a replacement. We auditioned four girls at Alaska Studios in Waterloo, London. Among them was a lass fresh down from Scotland who was so shy she wouldn’t emerge from the corner of the room at first. Also she had a rather obnoxious boyfriend, as I recall. So we passed. Months later I saw Eddi Reader on TV backing the Gang of Four, and later still duetting with Annie Lennox in Eurythmics. Bloomin ‘eck! Bet she has had many a sleepless night regretting my decision😂
  9. I don’t remember lending you my Fender, Paddy😂
  10. Google Mick Hawksworth and you will find it to your advantage.
  11. A great idea for a thread, but please identify the basses in the picture (s) for the benefit of us ignoramuses! 🙏
  12. New compilation of Quo 1966-69. Includes fantastic BBC sessions disc as well as pre-Quo cuts, mono-stereo of their first two albums, B-sides and rarities. Unplayed condition. Great booklet and sleeve notes by Classic Rock’s Dave Ling. Released March, but why wait? RRP £27.99, yours for only £15 posted UK.
  13. Do you want a flake (or three) with that? 🍦
  14. Amazing 550-page hardback book on the music business and its decline. Probably the most fascinating read of the year so far. Incredibly well researched and thought-provoking. New and unread. RRP £30, yours for £18 posted UK. Now £15
  15. Absolutely no problems - even with a small amp like a MB200 or Elf.
  16. A bass-playing angel suggests itself!
  17. Perfect book sale with this fella - a recommended Basschatter!
  18. What is the quickest and easiest way to get a decent band logo please? Rather than badgering the guitarist to ask his artistically gifted daughter😂 Thank you!
