  1. Does anyone have any experience receiving international bank transfers? A payment was sent to me from Portugal on Friday but hasn't landed in my account yet. Any idea how long it should take?

      Same here, it took I think 5 days for an Italian transfer for a bass I sold recently, but all good in the end.

  3. Trying out for a new band tomorrow...wish me luck!

  4. Just had my 1st unrequested slap bass demo in at least 20yrs, when asking to try a bass in Dawsons. For the record, I've not missed those!

      Amen. As I said on another thread: when you want to buy football boots, does the assistant put them on and juggle the ball for five minutes?

  5. Do old schol thumpy type flats (i.e not Fender/D'Addario bright types) without a completely dead E string exist????

      Yep, agreed @discreet ! Here's some that are played-in, at least they sound different to when I first strung them...settling down to that lovely 'vowel' tone :)

      ^^ I love 9050Ms, highly overlooked for some reason. Deep Talking La Bellas have a meaty E, too!

  8. If you're worried about your strings not lining up exactly with your pickup pole pieces, it means you've got far too much time on your hands, you muppet!

      @discreet I had the same on my '64 P:  E and A were directly over the middle of a pole piece, G and D between pole pieces. Seems to have been the done thing from what I can see...

  11. Playing a show with one of my favorite bands next week! Dream Tröll from Leeds!  Very excited! 

  12. My first five string has just arrived! Now to teach this old dog some new tricks :)

  15. I've just emailed Limelight... Will they do basses in nonperiod colours? I was hoping for a 63 spec in either shoreline gold or LPB... 

  16. The last rehearsal with my Ampeg V4BH before it goes up for sale to fund my latest bout of GAS :( 

  17. I seem to have finally made it! SE Bass Bash blog is here: https://goo.gl/xoNCy9 and belated LBGS 2017 blog is here: https://goo.gl/z7UPA4  Phew... ;)
