  1. Always book two singles Andy, eh, eh?
  2. Flats on a Jazz can sound wonderful. Do whatever sounds good to your ears - you might even find your signature sound. Best of luck on your journey.
  3. In response to OP question, 'does anyone have one', I have several and would happily buy another if required. Agree with lots of what has been written above: try the bass before purchase, try different strings, etc. Never had a problem with the B string on any of my Fenders, but beauty is in the ear of the beholder as they say.
  4. Bought a Reunion Blues gig-bag from Rob this week. Excellent communication throughout and package arrived exactly as described in what can only be described as bullet-proof packaging. Trade with Rob with utmost confidence. A credit to Basschat in my book. Snorkie635
  5. Can't believe that this is still here. The cost of living shenanigans we're all going through have a lot to answer for. GLWTS
  6. Nicest one of those beasties I've seen. GLWTS. Not see many like that down the Dog and Duck on a Friday.
  7. Yet another heartwarming, positive and helpful thread on BC. You've all made the world just that wee bit better for the OP. Well done folks, I'm honoured to be part of this community,
  8. I remember trying to let the other three guys in our band down gently. "John, George, Ringo, I'm looking for something with more of a future," I said. Hung around until the new guy kicked in. Never seen any of them since, but folk who have, tell me they did a couple of albums, got played on the radio, etc. The new bass-guy even made a little bit of cash from writing some material. Maybe I should have stayed? Oh, how I long for yesterday.
  9. If her bath is big enough, perhaps you could pop round and give her advice on reaching the high notes. (Don't drop the i-Pad in though.) Recommend the guitarist for the award of MBE and see if he cottons on.
  10. Excellent. Hope it brings you years of playing-happiness.
  11. Yep Bingo used to be in our band, but then his number came up and he's now playing alongside Pino Coolada.
  12. Far be it for me to identify the culprit here, but based on my own experience with a certain retailer whose premises would fit perfectly into your '90 mins' journey-time, I'm not at all surprised. 'Nuff said.
  13. Very well done indeeeeed. You have won our coveted Pointless Trophy. Thank you very much indeeeeeeed.
  14. 'Low end' equates to playing bass. Welcome btw. 🤗
  15. Haven't been captivated by a story-line this much since Amos and Mr Wilkes were int' Woolpack.
  16. The things that go on in school staff-rooms nowadays.
  17. Easy if you put a capo on the 29th fret.
  18. Ahhh! My old Overwater Progress 3, seven stringer. Memories! 👍😊
  19. Wow! Woah! I thought it was. 🤣😉
  20. Go and find one then. The night is still young!
  21. 1st is from '78 - earliest picture on my i-pad. 19 at that time 2nd is from June this year, making me 66
  22. All great CDs btw. I'd grab the lot, except I already have them.
  23. In my teenage incarnation, Our band had a disagreement over the tempo of a Santana song we were going to cover. After much heated disagreement, I rolled the drummer's snare down a four-flight, stone staircase. The end. Probably the best tempo it had kept for a few months.
  24. I blackballed you at the Awards Committee. I should not have mentioned that. Not have mentioned that at all.
