  1. That’s my daughter’s guitar btw. It isn’t mine 🤮
  2. £7 casters visible bottom left bh250 up top zoom b2.1 not visible
  3. It works, not had a chance to turn it up loud. Good enough for my purposes, and I put casters on it
  4. I had that Emmanuel Macron on the phone the other day, he said he was trying to find models for the replacement medieval gargoyles that were lost in the Notre Dame fire … and could I suggest anyone? I thought about mentioning a certain blonde french woman but I think I may just have struck gold here. I’ll donate the finder’s fee to @lee650 even though he sold me a rubbish bass that took forever to arrive, not least as he’d shipped it via the Congo** ** not all of this is true, possibly none of it
  5. Looking again I’d suggest the original foam disintegrated and this is some modern silicon putty from when the EMGs went in
  6. You only need half of those If you got rid of everything fret wise above the octave and every part of a fret on the two treble strings, you could make it a hybrid fretted/fretless and do all the pointless noodling on the bits real bass players don’t use 👍 #joking
  7. @Delberthot interested in view of hb flats
  8. I went to an OM. It was totally dead. The host was nowhere in sight so I hung around for ten minutes and gave up. The landlady told me it hadn’t gone well. As I was leaving a young lady at a table near the door said she’d wished I’d got to play (she obviously hasn’t heard me or she wouldn’t make such a ridiculous claim). I said that sadly bass is not a solo instrument and other people are needed, unfortunately not the case tonight. Her blank look at the word “bass” told me everything I needed to know about perceptions of our instrument but it was nice that she said it. someone I presumed to be the host scuttled into view at that moment and headed for the om area, he didn’t see me though he passed within a metre or so. I hope the landlady had a word about not deserting his post
  9. Yes. Since the copper plates are there
  10. Totally agree with all that. Maybe it had a jazz neck for a while ? I’d guess at sunburst originally
  11. @Sweenyrodor the bass?
  12. I don’t like his music but there’s no denying the influence he has had on other artists. I don’t think you are correct in your assertion. His creative years were done before I was born so I’m probably going to feel less “shocked” than if, say, John Taylor, died but it doesn’t mean that I think BW irrelevant
  13. I’d stick with oil that body looks pretty good for pawlonia
  14. Find some open mic nights, just the right amount of commitment and usually bass players are rarer than a rare thing
  15. Adagio flats (ebay and Amazon) are, to me at least, very acceptable giving huge bang per buck I didn’t like fender flats, but the guy who bought my p bass, in a different galaxy to me talent-wise messaged me after to ask what they were (adagios) as he really liked them
  16. @John-E-Retro probably doesn’t recall after this long but he was very helpful with regard to putting a piezo bridge into a jazz bass and balancing it with the other pups
  17. That’s interpretation spelling, but you’re right. Let’s stick to the original #joking btw
  18. Loser totally get why that would piss you off
  19. You need to take a trip here Daryl come to a bass bash
  20. Get … out of my head ! Every time I read one of these threads and have decided what I’m going to write in reply , I find you have already done it 😳
  21. I Assume Google doesn’t work for him. A tab or two gets you close enough well that took ages…. Who is this @TKenrick dude anyway ? https://freebasstranscriptions.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/Queen-Crazy-Little-Thing-Called-Love-edit.pdf
