  1. I haven't had any issues with my Thunderbird bridge, plays like a dream.
  2. [quote name='Muzz' timestamp='1392211493' post='2365968'] With all-chrome hardware (pups and surrounds), that'd look even more lovely. And something done about that frickin bridge... [/quote] Chrome Bridge & Tuners with no pickguard. I understand the issues with the bridge but the Supertone looks so wrong!

  4. Still got the irresistible urge for a gloss black Thunderbird IV. There's one on eBay for £190 shipped which I'm umming & arring over.. Or I may wait & see if they do a Black Classic Pro IV.
  5. [quote name='Bolo' timestamp='1392199687' post='2365771'] Last time I ordered 200 with print on two sides I payed import tax, nearly a tenner I think. Net cost was € 0.36 a piece iirc. Grippy big .88 triangles, they last thrice as long [/quote] Doritos!
  6. [quote name='Bolo' timestamp='1392160630' post='2365598'] I get mine here: [url="http://intunegp.com/mobile/pricing-mobile"]http://intunegp.com/.../pricing-mobile[/url] [/quote] With your own signature on? That is decent pricing though, do you pay customs?
  7. [quote name='achknalligewelt' timestamp='1392127160' post='2365034'] There were a lot of great bassists that appeared in the 90's that seem never to get a mention - Micky Quinn of Supergrass, Alex James of Blur, Colin Greenwood of Radiohead come to mind. Some great and inventive work ('Tracy Jacks' on Parklie has a bafflingly odd but totally perfect line - how did he come up with that?), and though the bands could be called niche (I know that for a lot of people, Blur are a bit Marmite) the bass playing was, I think, very good indeed. I learned a lot from my bedroom years, playing along to Parklife and In It for The Money. [/quote] Colin Greenwood is absolutely fantastic, his technique is second to none and a lot of his playing is subtle. Bloom is a brilliant track & one of my favourite basslines by Radiohead. On a more recent, raw note, Jared Followill gets my vote: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fFuSNHrWxjc[/media]
  8. [quote name='bartelby' timestamp='1392127917' post='2365045'] The seller does other gauges too if anyone wonders [/quote] Thanks, forgot to mention this
  9. [quote name='skej21' timestamp='1392105950' post='2364619'] I'm just a drummer with strings most of the time... Unless the guitarist tries to be too flash, then I head beyond the 5th fret and show 'em how it's done! [/quote] +4 This is me, or so I've been told. Our drummer spends most of his time 2 bars ahead of everyone else, 70bpm faster than everyone else & wired off Pop Tarts.
  10. Depends what mood i'm in.. Usually i'm too far in my shell too anyway. And if its a truly awful gig i hate everyone. Thanks, Sam
  11. Hi guys, Just got 24 .88mm picks for £7 here: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/280851482448?var=580081956920&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649 God, I sound like one of those "I just made $7 on the internet" bots. Thanks, Sam
  12. Here's some horrendous footage of me playing and original with my band. http://www.facebook.com/photo.php=472192972893721 Sorry if preview doesn't show, Spent the entire gig with my back to the audience, too.
  13. [quote name='Samashton12' timestamp='1391105383' post='2353367'] Any of Jared Followill's Thunderbird's: [/quote] Speaking of this 'Bird, anyone know where I can get a leather pickguard like that?
  14. Recently? This. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1cMKx_cJ-CA
  15. I alternate between 0.73 and 0.88's. Best picks ever
  16. Any of Jared Followill's Thunderbird's:
  17. [quote name='EliasMooseblaster' timestamp='1391093393' post='2353180'] That was my first thought when I saw your OP...but I think that tab is also for the Leeds recording, and the Isolated Bass video is the IoW performance, if I'm not mistaken? [/quote] You are correct Edit: Just realised, the video is also the Leeds recording. It just seems the tab isn't very accurate, or the person who wrote the tab it tabbed the wrong version.
  18. [quote name='DorsetBlue' timestamp='1391090952' post='2353133'] No idea how accurate but: [url="http://www.thewho.net/whotabs/tablature/youngmanblues-bass.txt"]http://www.thewho.ne...nblues-bass.txt[/url] [/quote] Seen this before, doesn't seem very accurate to me
  19. Hi Guys, Not sure whether this is the appropriate place but could someone tab the section 1:17 : 1:28 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IcycNbLq510 It's really got me stuck Thanks, Sam
  20. [quote name='Annoying Twit' timestamp='1389198157' post='2331227'] I'm lowballing this one. Anyone who is a serious bidder, go ahead!

I'm amazed by quite how low some people's lowball bids are, but that was a different thread. [/quote] I just want the neck :'(
