  1. it makes sense that a Womble would own this bass — they were always keen on rubbish. Did you know that Hattie Jaques and John Le Mesurier's son Robin Le Mesurier was kicked out of the wombles for 'smoking da spliff'?
  2. Earlpilanz on ebay will sort you out with one in any colour you like for not much dosh. GAS reinstated again , you're welcome!
  3. Just A Lidl Bit — Lidl Milton
  4. I used to have exactly the same amp and cab plus a matching 2x10 cab. The whole lot cost me £600 at the time. Someone got a bargain for £75.
  5. Fool's Paradise — Mose Allison
  6. The Nearness Of You — Norah Jones
  7. I know matching aged Pelham Blue - or any metallic colour is likely to be impossible for a touch-up job, but I've seen luthiers deal with this on other gibsons with a headstock repair by painting the back of the headstock black and fading it out just beyond the repair. That would look a lot better than dumping a load of what I'd assume to be blue nail polish on it.
  8. yep - It wouldn't have those if he has sanded them off.
  9. Baby's On Fire — Brian Eno
  10. I Can't Believe That Urine Love With Me — Dinah Washington
  11. There is a slight blemish on the back of the neck, but apart from this, it is in great condition! https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/285574555048 So we're referring to a headstock breaking off and being glued back together with splints and then poorly painted over as a slight blemish now? You don't seem many of these 70s bicentennial ones in Pelham blue. If it wasn't for the headstock repair & mismatched paint it would be right up my street.
  12. A bunch of t-shirts and stuff from bassthing.uk. Although it’s my own website, the items are printed to order by the supplier, so I only have a few of the shirts currently.

  20. More of a preference than a predjudice, but I tend to go for modern reissues of basses that were available in the mid to late sixties. My main basses are my three JMJ mustangs, but I also have another pair of mustangs, two epi thunderbird vintage pros, a gibson non-reverse thunderbird, a Guild Starfire II, and a Danelectro Longhorn. The Hohner B2A tends to stay in its case.
  21. Bald Head — Professor Longhair
  22. I used to have an epi pro v t-bird. The black box is the active preamp. What is the other end of the red wire connected to? Can you post any pics to show clearly what it looks like?

  24. Death or Grolly — The Clash
  25. Catarrh Man — Elvis Presley
