  1. The birth of heavy metal - You really got me by the Kinks. A bit of Free, Whitesnake, and some punk.
  2. Play my shortscales in a band that covers 60's to 2000's and have not found a style they can't cope with. They are lighter and easier to play than standard 34" scale length.
  3. Your thinking is spot on RobF and definitely not stupid. I have done the same and now have 3 short scale basses, 2 x ACG and 1 highly modified Harley Benton P bass. I'd like to try and EBO one day.
  4. I think your idea makes sense - put your thoughts down in writing and it's their more likely to happen. Hope it works out for you.
  5. I think all three were extremely interesting and thought that the conclusion of the guitar one was excellent i.e. guitarists have gone back to where it all started with Lse Paul and his wife and multi tape recorders etc😂.
  6. First class David, well done to you and your fellow musicians.
  7. PM on it's way re: Pbass torte scratch plate.
  8. Well done, congratulations.
  9. Perhaps it's laying down the groove?
  10. I like the way the burl falls around the electrics and where it does not the finish on top of the knobs take over - that's genius Andy.
  11. Absolutely fabulous that one.
  12. Another Newtone user here, I have them fitted on all my short scale basses. I tend to go for the Platinum nickels with a round core, but you could always talk to them as the customer service is excellent.
  13. Got a few straps you could try if your any where near Lichfield, Staffs.
  14. Good summation +1.
  15. Wear a 'Marigold' glove over that hand😀
  16. My short scale basses have a reasonably tight feel but it's not massive over a 34" scale. A different choice of strings can change the feel, have a chat with Newtone strings see if they can do something for you or if you get the Mustang and its around 30" scale I could lend you a set to try the difference.
  17. Great recovery Andy.
  18. I have also used the Velcro cable tie on my cables, the type with a slot for the cable to pass through. Push the tie to the bass end of the and then thread the tie through the ladder of your guitar strap. Holds just as well and offers the cable some float.
  19. Fusion have got the Funksion' gig bags at £19.18 plus postage until Cyber Monday. Only 18 left. https://www.fusion-bags.com/collections/black-friday-cyber-monday-sale
  20. Being modest there, it's a stunning bass.
  21. you are certainly building up a stunning bass collection Mr Bridgehouse.
  22. Good choice Dave. Hopefully Chris will have the strap attachments back in stock shortly.
  23. Good choice Bridgehouse.
