OK Ive bitten the bullet and my Metallic Black Stagg has miraculously become a Violin Burst and will arrive tomorrow. Huzzah

Oooops. Just sent an e mail and phone message to zings [b][/b]then and only then [b][/b] read the Stagg thread to discover OGs is piano black. Not metallic like mine. Embarrassing email retraction facility in full swing as we speak. All good things come to he who waits as my Aunt Cathy used to say. Mind you she was sectioned at the time.

Just looked back at the original post. Is your black the same as metallic black. If so then its the same from Zings. A phonecall required methinks. On the plus side if you hate it let me know and I can cancel. Tho at that price its worth a shot anyway. Let us know how she plays.

Happy for you OG, gutted for me. Ordered the same one on 20th Mar and have since been informed that it will now be mid April before delivery. Ah well the sun shines on the righteous. Enjoy.

[quote name='mewsie' post='161769' date='Mar 22 2008, 12:32 PM']i'm wondering how wrong it would be for me to get a t-shirt like that for myself!
although i do know a lot of other bass players so i might get away with it

[quote name='alicedear' post='161529' date='Mar 21 2008, 06:32 PM']Hi-nice to have you on board! I've only been a member for a few days myself (site recommended by iamthewalrus, another Reading member), and already I'm discovering all sorts of things. I'm based just outside Reading, by the way, and my band plays quite often in the area. Get yourself in a band-when I did, I realised it was the best favour I could have done myself!
Like everyone else, I love the top in your photo! My wife is already asking where she can get one![/quote]

Cheers guy.Looks like I might have to go into the T shirt business. Looking for a band right now as a matter of fact. Little blues/modern guitar/classic rock/soul number thats gigging but not taking life too seriously. Need to get back into it like I need that second mojito. Thats a lot . Whats your band name and where can I catch them? Thanks for the welcome by the way. Right back atcha.

Hi mate. Just joined yesterday. Its a cool site.Lots of good gear and tips. Welcome from a fellow newbie.

I've got to get the missus a top like the one in your avatar. I have a feeling she'd be the only one prepared to wear one at our gigs, and even that would hard to persuade...

She'd probably scribble it out and put "singer". Good looking b*st*rd![/quote]


Yeah but think of the fragile ego she would have to deal with. Chicks know

+1 on not selling your first bass. Mine was a crackly Jazz copy that in 82, wife number 1 swung at my head (Sturdy Bird) and shattered the neck against the banister when I ducked. Cant complain tho, she was guilty enough to buy me an 81 Ric to replace it which immediately became my first bass and is still with me today. I dont upset wife number two as you can imagine. Although I could get a Bongo out of it come to think. Faint heart and all that.

Thanx for the welcome. Nice hat by the way

One of my better decisions then. Might just offset the three bad ideas I have each and every day. Thanks bud

Hi Folks. Stumbled across your site looking for EUB reviews. Ive been playing bass in a variety of bands since my dad bought me a 6 string acoustic for my 13th birthday which I immediately took the top 2 strings off and found exactly what I was looking for. Unfortunately Im now 45 so I guess I should be a lot better than I am. Love all sorts of music with a special place in my heart for Blues rock, soul and classic rock. Lapsed from playing live for about 6 years, but it is now time to bet back into it. Based in Reading Berks via Ayrshire Scotland. Looking forward to spending some time in the site picking your brains and feeling like a muso again. Once again Hi.
