Creep - Radiohead

When I were a lad I had an album of covers called, "We do 'em our way". That had the Sub's version of 'She's Not There' on it, as well as 'Friday on my Mind' by a band called The Golant Pistols, of particular interest to me as Golant was a local village. Turns out they were the house band (of sorts) at Sawmill Studios featuring the late great Al Hodge. But the stand out for me was The Slits' version of 'Heard it Through the Grapevine'. A fantastic funked up version that maybe doesn't beat the original, but gives it a run for its money.

The Impossible Dream - Carter USM

I've got one, it's actually a decent bass, sounds good with it's Powersound pickups. I paid the princely sum of feck all, probably worth a bit more but not much.

I've always liked a pickguard on a pickguard, especially if they're both machined from a half inch thick slab of plastic with a beaver held by the tail, a la Flintstones.

You Swim Again - Bee Gees

My Lovin' (You're never gonna get it) - En Vogue

I'm not sure exactly how long I get from a full charge as it's never gone from full to empty in one sitting, but it's a lot more than one hour, maybe five or six hours. When I practise it's usually for about an hour to an hour and a half and I get a good few sessions out of it before it needs charging. Kind of intrigued now as to how long it does actually last. Mine is the mp-2 rather than the pro but I can't see there being that big a difference.

Night Clubbing - Iggy Pop

The bridge would be positioned the same distance from the 12th fret as the nut, give or take a smidge for intonation.

747 (Strangers in the Night) - Saxon

Mr Pink Eyes - The Cure

Finland Red, Egypt White - Sisters of Mercy

Hot Hot Hot - The Cure

I bought an Encore Precision a couple of years ago in a charity shop and it is genuinely one of my favourite basses, among some much, much more expensive ones. It has some amazing grain on the body which is solid wood, the neck also has some nice grain and quilting, and a lovely piece of rosewood for the fretboard. A bit of love and a Tonerider pickup and it sounds and play fantastic. Link to the NBD thread below if interested.

David Gilmour will be along in a minute to redo the advert.

Wavering, WAVERING, WAVERING!! 😂

Five months in and no sign of wavering. ☺️

My apologies, but you won't find one. I like to confuse people with this picture. I did the conversion myself in a bid to convince myself I didn't need a Peter Hook BB (BBPH), then ended up with a BBPH a few months later.
