    [quote name='TheGreek' timestamp='1394300258' post='2390086'] So nobody listened to Mud, Bay City Rollers or David Cassidy... [/quote] Not me -before my time. Mother liked abba but we didn't have a stereo, just a radio that I couldn't reach and it was always stuck on radio 4. I grew up in a remote part of the middle of nowhere Eventually I saved up some money and bought a small portable radio and listened to talking heads, U2, simple minds and Duran Duran. Watching live aid in 1985 was formative though as watching Bono go off into the crowd made me realise music wasn't set in stone once recorded (I had only ever heard it on the radio remember) and could be adapted on the hoof.

    [quote name='AntLockyer' timestamp='1394446357' post='2391299'] Completely well is now pumping out courtesy of spotify. Geek99 is this the book? http://www.amazon.co.uk/Famous-Blues-Bass-Lines-QWIKGUIDE/dp/0786648325/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1394446319&sr=8-1&keywords=famous+blues+bass [/quote] Yep - that's the one I found it quite inspiring and not a bank breaker either. Also recommend Jon liebmans book and the Ed friedland one

    [quote name='geoffbyrne' timestamp='1394102114' post='2387886'] To the best of my knowledge, a '74 P bass hasn't got a preamp, only the passive standard circuit. [/quote] Yep It may be a 74 body but the preamp has been added

    Use much longer screws ? It can't be THAT soft that a deeper mounted screw won't sidestep the issue

    I like relic so think this is nice but why the relic work around the top of the scratch plate? Surely most users would rub the paint away in one or two spots ?
