That light blue one looks lovely, shame about the dead spot. I've been trying to avoid stuff we gig as it makes me realise how much I miss it, but the snippet of Nite Club made me go and listen to a live version of it. I love playing that one live, the guitar and vocals used to leave it ages to come back in on the 'that bass part'. Just me and the drums grooving and everyone dancing. Octave runs galore 😁.

Hmm, ended at £420 but reserve not met. I don't know what the seller was hoping for but I didn't realise these were so highly valued (or not, given the bids) but they seem to go up for sale edging towards a grand.

Touch Me - Sam Fox

Absolutely agree with that. I like that they've done something different with it, but it's just not for me.

Can You Dig It - The Mock Turtles

Viva la difference! 🙂 That, to me, sucked the life out of what made that era Chili's great. Great musicianship but ultimately meh.

Knock On Wood - Amii Stewart

Sorry to go back to the BBPH again, but from about 6 minutes onwards here it's sounding great. Why do I keep torturing myself? 😄

Don't Touch The Bang Bang Fruit - The Meteors

I think candy paint gets called candy apple because CAR tends to be the most common colour.

In the custom world, a tinted lacquer applied over a metallic (usually a coarse gold or silver) basecoat is just 'candy' paint, the 'apple red' or 'apple green' is the colour. A similar process is used on lots of modern production cars but it's known as 'three stage pearl', and isn't usually as extreme as a candy finish.

Sheriff Fatman - Carter USM

I've got a Sharpie and a shyte bass, all I need now is to download a collection of random, unrelated pictures of a celeb and I could have a £2.5k Christmas bonus. Just need to track down a willing mug to buy it. 😉

Been Caught Stealing - Jane's Addiction

I Could Be Happy (Altered Images)

(Song for my) Sugar Spun Sister - The Stone Roses

Just seen this on ebay and I really like the poor old wonky thing. Collection only and far too far alas. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Vintage-Guild-B301A-Bass-Guitar-/114563407320?_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49292

Beautiful English tie pin, yeah, hmm !?

Ooh that'll make your eyes water! The tuners will be like a Guiro. 😬

Roll Over Beethoven (Chuck Berry)

We Gotta Get Out Of This Place - Angelic Upstarts (the best version)

747 (Strangers in the Night) - Saxon

Together Forever (Rick Astley)

I've found lots of 'budget' strings tend to have red silks. Those ten pounds a pack Olympia flats do, and the two different brands of super el cheapo rounds I used to buy from a local shop for a fiver did to. Not much help but there you go 😁. Enjoying this build BTW. I don't know how but I only just discovered it over the weekend. 🙂👍
