Uptown Top Ranking (Althea and Donna)

Music critic. Someone who's failed at being a journalist and a musician, then settled on combining the two for a lifetime of resentment.

Hundred Mile High City (Ocean Colour Scene)

Yes I think you're probably right, he's not an out of tune shouter, or pitchy, or has poor control or anything, just a bit off centre in his delivery.

I can't make up my mind about Robert Wyatt. An unconventional voice certainly, but an achingly beautiful one. I just can't decide if he's technically good or not.

"A band is essentially a drummer and a bassist, plus assorted novelty acts". Nick Mason Yes a drummer not bassist, but he's feeling the brotherhood.

Call Me (Spagna)

I love the sound from these little things. I'd still love a LB Drophead, even though I have no use for one.

Great news. 🙂👍

Thanks, I'll look into them. To be honest the low E is still too floppy for my liking but my worry was, given the narrow string spacing, that with even thicker strings they'd be too tightly packed together on the neck. Flats would help but I use it for post punk type stuff so wanted rounds.

That's why I was trying to find his other items, so I could save the seller if needed. Glad someone has the details in case.

I'm trying to remember his other items for sale to find the seller. He did have other music related items. There was a small (torque I think) combo, still had the red label across the lower corner, an old stage light and an old Nokia phone (or one of the new ones that look like the old 3310) among other things.

I can't honestly remember as it was a few years ago now, I got the bass vi when they first released them again. It was either a 95 or 100 low E, and all the others were roughly the same amount higher in gauge that the E string was from standard, if that makes sense. From memory it was quite straight forward to pick the strings from their website.

Dragging Me Down (Inspiral Carpets)

That's 100% your amp. Take a couple of mates incase he gets shirty, get him to bring it to the door to look at, social distancing, you know, and just walk away with it. If he claims he bought it fair and square then he's as bent as the one that stole it. You can't buy that amp and sell it on for a profit at that price without knowing somethings iffy about it, plus he hasn't even got anything to test it with so why would he have bought it?

Band of Gold (Freda Payne)

Ooh this looks intriguing. Is the chamber for a soundhole?

Phwoarr!! 's bit all right that. 🙂👍

Funeral Pyre (The Jam)

I bought individual roundwound strings direct from LaBella for my Squier bass vi. I chose heavier, more suitable gauges and they worked out cheaper than any pre packaged set I could find, even including postage from NY.

From where I'm sat now I can see nine basses and guitars, not one of them cost over £100, and four of them were bought new.
