I would agree that the tonerider P pickup is one of the best budget pickups out there. I got a used one off fleabay for £20ish and wasn’t expecting much but ended up genuinely impressed. On another thread somewhere is a link to an online shop offering brand new Squire CV P basses for under £290. After a decent setup these are decent instruments. I’ve heard mixed reports about QC but of the ones I have played they are as good as any Mex Fender.

Creep - Radiohead. I’ve tried to get into Radiohead several times but just find they do nothing for me. This is a good tune though.

I think he looks like a tool. Until I remember he’s nearly 60. Then I think I look like a slob.

Im not sure Rock has ever been as predominant in the general population as we think. Certain musicians are remembered as they wrote such decent music it survives across many generations but a quick google of uk top selling singles of the 1960s, 70s and 80s shows that other than the expected Beatles and Stones many of the legendary artists barely have a foothold. Sure they had a big sway in the music press and album sales but were not as omnipresent as would be expected. Most of the bands I loved in the 80s and 90s made far less money and received less airplay than Banarama or Wham!/Bros. My kids definitely play songs by Stone Roses, The Cure and The Specials though and haven’t even heard of Bananarama. I don’t think rock is quite dead yet, it’s just having a lie down.

When geekiness and obsession are banished from the world vintage guitars will become worthless and it will be safe to take those star wars figures out of their boxes and put the stamps on the envelopes. Until then I suspect there will be a market for them.

Digging through my dusty and neglected vinyl collection and playing Bob Marley and the Wailers, Exodus. I haven’t heard it in years. Seriously how can one man write so many good songs in a lifetime, let alone on one record.

I would hate to play Oasis covers to p1ssed up football fans even if it paid well. Some would love this.
