Dirt is one of my favourite albums of all time. Love that song, too. It's all groove, but in 6, and the impact is brought about by varying the intensity of different sections instead of a collection of riffs. The power of that song is all in how it's played. Chic operate in the same way for much of their stuff, same riff for 10 minutes but you bring it up, you bring it down and that's how it effects people. Amazing how differently we hear things.

Are you getting paid? If so, consider that playing the song is a much better way to get money than digging coal out of a mine or working in a call centre, no?

Take the money, do your easy work and, next time you play the song, think how great it is to get money for playing music.

The bass in Rock and Roll by Led Zeppelin sounds a bit flat when he's pedalling the A. Same for Do Anything You Want To by Thin Lizzy. Ah well, both are bangers and have done well enough regardless. It's not a huge deal.

Metallica and Lou Reed has to be mentioned, though it would be crass of me to include a link in case the play button was accidentally clicked.

But what a day it was, definite top-tenner of days.

Elton again, this time with Alice In Chains
 

Cut a piece of wood as you desire and apply some double-sided tape?

If the singer physically can't sing a song but someone insists it's part of the list, they should be able to sing it themselves to a higher standard or be kicked out for putting their own whims ahead of the interests of the band. It's just silly that someone would insist on such a thing in those circumstances.

I can only speak for original bands but, in my experience, the better ones were ones where everyone got to have their say but which had a de facto leader, who provided overall direction and generally had the casting vote. Full democracies with no leadership tended to progress a lot slower and eventually fell apart, without fail. You won't all love every song but, usually, everybody gets enough of what they like to get behind the band and the music.

Get with the program or (politely) get out is the whole of the law.

If you have a multimeter, see if the preamp is getting a charge when the bass is not plugged in. It could be something simple like something making contact and completing the battery circuit when the bass is unplugged.

I lusted after many a Sugi on the u-box. They'd be north of 3k, even second hand, after VAT and import duty, so I'll admire from afar.

Alembics were and are running single coils in the AXY shell, no?

Hipshot are generally very responsive to requests for spare parts, even when you're outside the US. Getting the real thing from them directly could be very straightforward (and possibly free),

Low frets = toward the nut

High frets = toward the body

I ask because high action on a straight neck shouldn't have buzz on the high frets without something odd going on which goes beyond a setup issue, which is why the post after asks what it does.

Yngwie would be most upset.

That's good stuff
