Prince? He would have done a cracking headline show, including a band!

I always at some point in any given rehearsal even for just a tiny bit play the Jaws riff, Sweeney and The Professionals.

When bass was included! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NiooaSGLwc8

Songs for a tailor, Harmony Row and Out of the storm are masterpieces. Brilliant all round musician and superb singer.

'lead' guitarists have given me many nightmares through the years. The best trait for any musician to have, no matter their ability is to have the capacity to [b]listen,[/b] which is what he seems to be struggling with. It can't harm to point things out in a constructive way. good luck

Just bought a Zon off Ian and everything went really smoothly. Thanks.

Hope this might help someone.. I blindly acquired a Yamaha Trb5ii fretless from evil Bay and only realised on delivery that the side dots are in the wrong place! ( like on a fretted bass but this is a factory fretless) Although the fingerboard is faintly lined it is difficult to see from a playing angle and I always go by the side dots anyway. I tried to adjust to having them in the wrong place but found it infuriating! So, I masked off the areas that needed marking with tape and put on some white acrylic paint that can easily be scraped off with a finger nail if done badly or for removal at a later date. Now a great bass is really playable. This took no more than half an hour. Here's a link to a pic as I can't figure out how to place a photo here. https://www.dropbox.com/s/xe8ssjbi2c03dvq/IMAG0216.jpg?dl=0
