police squad

the Harley Benton PB50 has a lovely chunky neck which will defo improve when rolled

I'll try one of these then. It's an unlacquered maple board (Harley Benton) so should be fine

Hi there has anyone done this and how did you do it please There are a few vids on Youtube buta bit of first hand knowledge would be good cheers

I'm also thinking about rolling the fingerboard edges, if anyone has done it, how did you do it please

I've only used Fender flats and they've been wonderful

I work with a guy who has several HB guitars. I hink, if you get a good one, you become a fan. I'm going to shim the neck on mine I think. Maybe replace the nut as it looks a bit rough (seems to be cut ok though) atm it's my office bass and I wasnt there yesterday, so didnt have time to play with it

You're Bournmouth way, will let you know, dates slowly being added

nope, see the picture at the top of the page. well chuffed

so it's turned up and it's very good. Yes needs a set up but crikey I'm impressed. Might need to shim the neck but I'll fiddle with the saddles etc later

I must admit I pretty much sound like me. I changed from Ampeg to Ashdown a few years ago and my sound is still about the same. My biggest change is going to flats though. But they still sound like worn out rounds, if you know what I mean and I stopped changing string regularly because I like that worn out rounds sound these days

JMJ Mustang, all the way

can't unsee that now

maybe next year for me. I was gigging yesterday so couldn't attend. It would be good to meet you guys

used to wear contacts for gigging all the time. I sweat a lot and it gets in my eyes, so by the end of the gig I was ready to take them out. I used to carry my lens case and pop them in the fluid and clean them when I got home, then I went to disposables and used to take them out at the end of the gig and chuck em away. Just over 20 years ago I had lasik surgery and didn't need anything at all. Wonderful it was. Now I need reading glasses but that's no biggy either

yes plenty of times, I was being sarcastic really. It's very rare that I like the support band. Some of the best gigs I've been too are the ones without support. Main act on about 7.30 and on my way home before 10.00

Last night at the Cambridge Corn Exchange a band called Barbara supporting I hate support bands, I'm not there to see them BUT THEY WERE SUPERB Fantastic song writing, I loved every song, I wished they could have played for longer. Look out for them https://www.facebook.com/barbaratheband

nice boots, where did you get them

of course

Got our debut gig with The Americana Revue https://www.americanarevue.com/ coming up in 2 weeks, so I went shopping with my wife for some new clobber. The gig is completely sold out, which we are very proud of. Anyway, here's the gear Anyone else buy gear exclusively to wear at gigs

more than happy with my rig Ashdown RM500 EVO2 into either a Mark Bass club 15 or Ashdown RM410 cab. Usually the club 15 though Basses mainly used are a JMJ with flats and a bitsa P bass with flats, although my old 73 is still wearing rounds

even if its a small hole, my original Sting bass had a hole, I just put the finger rest over it. it's no biggy either way arrives next week, first Policed gig is Dec 2nd

ok, trigger pulled!!

I've just seen a video of one being taken apart and there's no routing under the pickguard. This pleases me as I need to have the PG removed to keep with the Sting vibe hundred quid, it's mad

hi folks what's it like under the pickguard please. Also is the sunburst a 50s sunburst or does it have red in it, like a 60s Fancy one for my Police tribute which is re-starting in December As you can see nothing under the pick guard Great neck too. Nice n chunky Flats on order

I use this Lekato 5.8 thing for my duo gigs. I stand right next to the receiver and it has been excellent so far. I use it because it gets rid of one more cable. https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07TWQL2JS?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details
