    I came to bass from classical guitar, pretty much transferring the technique wholesale as it were, so not lazy and not poor. For me, I don't have any problems digging in - although my preference is not to - and I don't think when playing the Foo Fighters, or AC/DC, or Thin Lizzy, my sound is too polite. You are of course welcome to judge for yourselves, and I would be delighted to see you tonight 😎

    i would not disagree!

    One of my ramps, or Thumb-chum, as it got named as it is also a thumb rest and pick-up cover.

    Back in the day, at a talk given by a chap who had at one point been in Van Morrison's band, a story was told regarding the last day of the tour, when before the gig each member of the band took one of Van's harmonicas, and wiped it up the crack of their derriere, then replaced it back on the rack. Such was the regard in which he was held. A challenging man to work for/with.

    I've only gone and done it😱 Ordered it earlier 🙃

    which was the one in a cage, so you could see the valves lit up? It looked amazing.😎

    My custom Shuker's are built to my design/spec, as signature models they would have limited appeal.

    i know this is a 'synth' pedal, but what are it's distortion capabilities?

    i thought he meant 'cocoa solids'! 😮

    My naivety was such in years gone by, that I was shocked (and stunned) upon talking to a luthier, to discover that he had made the signature model guitar an artist played, and not the company whose logo was on the headstock. Apparently this is not uncommon.

    I would not have bothered with an instrument at all, and instead would have become a dancer. From Cher, through Madonna and J-Lo, to Kylie, Britney and Christina etc - and half of The Spice Girls, and Girls Aloud - they've all hooked up with their dancers. As a young, fit, straight male dancer I could probably have filled my boots...

    so roughly £260 and no shipping. Bu993r. I may have to have a lie down as I'm experiencing a hefty amount of GAS.

    now what the profanity filter has done here, is make it seem like I'm talking about someone who has been sniffing amphetamine sulphate! 😱

    Hi, what's the current offer?

    After Saturday's gig, during which I had stopped midsong to save the PA speaker going over after whizzed punter fell on to the speaker stand, the barman said "sorry about that whizzed up woman. Unfortunately she's a member of staff".

    A couple of gigs ago a punter wanted to high five me, while I was playing! 🙄

    "or it has helped you purchase a piece of gear," I think you are the reason I found out about Shuker's, and now have 2, with 1 more on the way. Does that count?
  21. MacDaddy
    Lotsa nostalgia, back in the day this was my dream amp (combo). GLWTS

    So is anyone gonna come up with a usable 80's type keyboard bass sound?🤑
  23. MacDaddy
    An update on my part... I wouldn't say I've completely nailed it, but I'm 95% of the way there. We've gigged it a couple of times but now it seems to be out of the set, which p1553d me off a bit after the work I put in to learn it. Still it's my 'go to' piece when trying a new bass, or if i'm asked 'play something'.
