I did have a tutor and I would do it again. I don't have time at the moment but one day.... They spot things that you didnt notice (I swing when leading with my index finger, but am rock solid with my middle finger) and they do boost your confidence. One told me, when I was at a low point, that I was actually much better than I thought I was. We had just knocked out a scratch version of "Stand by Me" and despite never playing it before, I kept it together all the way though albeit with a couple of thin spots. Because he was also a "good enough" drummer and guitarist he was able to quickly put together a scratch backing track and email it afterwards, so it was all very customised; however as Coilte says, it was to be the [i]right[/i] teacher for [b]you[/b].

[quote name='phil.c60' timestamp='1490111171' post='3262258'] Following this topic starting, I emailed him yesterday because as usual I'm late to the party. I would really like a relic '63 P and left handed at that. I had just got around to a bit of serious research and his name came up. I got a very nice replay this morning to say that he is moving to another part of the country so is only working on projects he already has in hand in order to finish them before he moves. It was unclear whether he will start again once he has moved, but as he suggested he was moving his workshop too it seems likely. I've asked him to let me know when he is in a position to take fresh orders, but I fear this may be a while away. [/quote] He did say on his site that he doesn't do left handers ; perhaps he has changed policy

Wire wool is good on Warwick frets - I find Dettox spray good for cleaning off dirt

Nice easy transaction, glad he's happy with his plate

i don't mind at all as its now clear that I'm asking too much money

There was a time when this sort of thing was quite normal I feel for the pedestrians and that poor policeman -I hope the attacker burns in hell

[quote name='Happy Jack' timestamp='1490176956' post='3262807'] Properly marketed, that could be a crowd-pleaser. [/quote] Www.prevomited.com/recycle

I've had one, looks like a bitsa - at best

Norris has just tipped me off about this; I'd love to go, not least as I'm moving to the area but that means weekends are all about preparing the house for sale. Next year perhaps

happy to deal with Lee again.

That's what we do around here

smooth and pleasant traction for a celluloid tort P bass pickguard

sent some strings to tonefree- smooth and easy transaction

Fender flats are cheap and good sounding

isnt that an otter ?

[quote name='ivansc' timestamp='1489508781' post='3257539'] None of you LOOK particularly angry.... [/quote] maybe its ironic and they are actually fairly happy and tolerant badgers

yes, I always had naughty thoughts about them all. And I would have to observe that Michael Steele (she's a lady) was a good bassist,

Ms Hoffs is still cute now

Isnt it the case that Dan Lakin got told off by Fender and had to change his headstock design ? I dont think its too much to ask that someone making something [i]quite like your valuable commerical product[/i] makes it sufficiently different that it doesnt get mistaken for [i]your valuable commerical product and affect your business adversely. [/i]You'd never rmistake the Vintage icon fretless relic bass for the custom shop jaco replica costing ten times as much but it looks similar enough to satisfy people who dont care enough about "replca" to pay ten time as much, and doesnt lose Fender the business they would have had anyway.
