  1. There are two concurrent threads about this going on 😴
  2. Sorry I was just teasing you, I should have added emotes but yes I agree
  3. Surely it’s instead lamb dressed as mutton so exactly the opposite ?
  4. Me too, it was in a bass lesson with my teacher playing telecaster. I was totally in rapture and this is why i don’t mind 12 bar
  5. I reliced my bass and comments were generally favourable which means I did a reasonable job. I didn’t do it wanting approval but validation is nice. It was a heavy relic job - it’s a finish just like any other, I give you the recent Matt finishes from fender
  6. I have no idea if it sounds like a stingray but it’s feels solid and well made and the sound it makes is unlike a p bass. It is a good sound
  7. I’ve got an est96a in yellow/honey with maple and its awesome. Batteries last forever although a less fiddly compartment would be nice
  8. That’s the one. If you read the first post you’ll see I was inspired by watching the man himself playing dancing queen shortly before his death
  9. The bass I built is intended as a tribute to him, he is to my mind exactly what a bass player should be
  10. He was heavily into Swedish folk also. He originally auditioned for benny as a singer in a band called the hootenanny singers. Bass hero of mine
  11. No, that’s an early fender logo muppet
  12. No your English is fine - everyone makes small mistakes in foreign languages. I had to work in German for years and people were always correcting me in minor errors . If no one tells you you do not learn. English is really hard
  13. Fabulous btw “you borrow from someone”, they “loan to you”. I think it’s the same word in Portuguese but not in English
  14. We have cctv for just this reason
  15. Even now a carpet is rolled up letting the underlay dry as mr idiot didn’t tighten the cold feed nut enough. I had to cut the wall open to get to it. Just like the shower head feed that he did tighten but forgot to put ptfe on it first and he is british gas trained....
  16. I cannot recall the last time I got practice we moved into this money pit 14 months ago and my foxtrot uniform Charlie kilo India November golf amp is still in the wardrobe where it landed on move in day. Thanks vendor and your your pack of lies thanks david wilson homes and your utterly sugar honey ice tea build quality and relentless corner cutting thanks idiot plumber who failed to tighten or ptfe anything in the shower room you fitted leading to “relentless succession of leaks” city from all possible sources of water
  17. You are lucky to get practice ...
  18. Ugh! Too.... many... weedy...strings.... take them away !
  19. I like that but I would not pay much extra
  20. I bought a “blues tribute” on eBay for not much and it’s fabulous. Fat Woody sound and cheap as chips
  21. Collection from where ? nice - not that it’s a significant birthday soon or anything
  22. Indeed the bed would be too big without them, and too small with them of course
  23. Not an easy shape to scrape clean well, I wood say
