  1. OK, thanks for the headsup - looking into it now
  2. Well, he is wrong, it is absolutely dire. and I like disturbed.
  3. Agreed, they look a bit odd like that (even more so on that one where you see how they are out). My shuker has slightly angled pickups, but as they are black on black and only jazz size, they don't really notice but as his are big, they do.
  4. Love that. Which isn't surprsing as most of his colourwork is good
  5. Literally was my problem with it. I wasn't even colour blind so what reason did they have!
  6. The careers advisers job was basically to funnel everyone at my school into the dockyard or the military. To be fair I went to interviews for both. The Air force were really enthusiastic, but it turned out that they wanted me to be an engineer that didn't involve learning to fly a plane AND i had to cut my hair, and the dockyard (hellish interview) offered me that job but it was a 1/3rd less than marconi did, so a bit of a no brainer.
  7. I think the light marks make it. There is a very similar uberhorn that doesn't have the marks, I prefer the one with, it adds a highlight. Only because it is a fretless! The uberhorns are supremely comfortable and mine is so light. Only downside is they wouldn't be so good for someone who wanted to use a plectrum at the time.
  8. Fancy, a test and everything. My first interview they just gave me a bundle of wires and asked me to show them colours they named. I thought it was kind of dumb at the time as I had no idea that people were actually colour blind.
  9. I could bring an ABM600 if it was needed but i feel we probably have a topheavy data points / time ratio!
  10. Just use the code
  11. Personally I find the uberhorns the nicest looking basses.
  12. I don't think that is a fair comparison as that is a special edition, so it is more in a comparison to something like this: https://www.andertons.co.uk/fender-custom-shop-75-jazz-bass-in-black-over-aged-3-tone-sunburst-heavy-relic which is a beaten up jazz for the same sort of money. I don't think these things are designed to play, they are designed to be hung on the wall somewhere.
  13. They have their problems like the fender ones, but I assume they are probably on balance working out the same. January this year - in site news
  14. Honestly I am sure that if a child did draw one, it would look more like a fender because it is roundy and simple. Probably more a P though.
  15. My school career officer told me there were no careers in computers for people like me. Which was nice
  16. Even if there was a radio caroline or whatever, it would play the hits of now, not the parents or grandparents generation, and as you said, you don't listen to music so why would it be surprising you don't know anything produced recently
  17. it's even cheaper in other shops
  18. Sorry.. I started not believing after the start words
  19. Very impressed with that. I am not in the market for anything like that, and it is out of my range of purchasing if it was, however as someone who writes user interfaces for a living I would say that that is one of the nicest user interaction flows I have seen in one of those devices, and if I was in the market for one, that is the one I would get!
  20. No I remember what happened - we got down there and watched most of the friday set, it was really warm and I was in the process of getting off with this girl that I went up with (there were about 5 of us travelled up in a princess). It was ok until steel pulse came on then the atmosphere turned all nasty because there were a bunch of bikers that didn't like black people, so lots of bottling etc, so we wandered back to the tent, got of our faces and then resumed on the saturday, so almost certainly i missed big country and the stranglers. And frankly at the time I don't think I would have been interested by either.
  21. I know. I was there. I don't remember anything about it. Think I might have just enjoyed the day a bit too much
  22. I was at reading festival in 1983 and I don't remember them. Can't have been that good
  23. I had to refresh the page once it had loaded to get the images to load, but I thought that was just a glitch on my end as every other time I tried it it was ok.
