  4. [quote name='Bassnut62' timestamp='1399185177' post='2441763'] Yup, got them for Birmingham; it took nearly an hour to get them. Can't wait to see him again. I've been a fan of his since the early days of Dirty Mind; but only first got to see him at the O2. That was the best big arena gig I've ever seen and obviously a lot different from the 3rd Eye Girl set up......looking forward to seeing the purple one rock out. At O2 he started gig just coming on alone with his Hohner Tele, just noodling, like any of us might at home. The difference was Prince was noodling through sketches of some of the most innovatively crafted pop songs of the last 20-30 years, all of which he wrote. It was a great and very intimate way to start a giant arena gig and he somehow managed to maintain that intimacy throughout the 3 hour set, which indulged us in every configuration of his bands you can imagine. He even did a piano duet with Elton John!!!! Now I'm not a big fan of Elton, but Prince made it v cool. Prince is probably the best musician, composer, arranger, producer in the pop field of the last 30 years IMO.....and as a guitarist he is frightening; I would so love to be able to play even a tenth as good as him. [/quote] yes he's a bad MF hope you enjoy the gig
  5. Great lyricist, surely one of England's finest.

    Guild... but

    Guild Pilot came out in the 80's Reissued by Fender Korea as DeArmond in late 90's early 2000's original had Bartolini pick ups. V versions where JJ, IV's P + J fast neck, versatile gigging bass. The reissue V is serious bang for bucks. Excellent make/fit and B string is strong and 'in tune'.
  8. I'd love too see Bush Premier English Song-Writer, a National Treasure.

    Compressors

    Diamond Bass Compressor for me great with a Precision and a handy thing gigging with an active V
  10. took me 20 years to learn how to practice get stuck in, hard work sorts 99% of life's issues.
  11. Thompson on Prince's "Come" Markee on Joan Armatrading's "Love and Affection"
  12. Hood on Staples Singers "Respect Yourself" Levin on Paul Simon's "50 Ways to leave your lover". (I think it was him) that song has a great drum track too.
