  1. Oh no. Really? It's pants.
  2. Further to Jack's question... How do I get rid of that notification that regularly obscures the bottom of the page please? I like the roundel that is shown at the top right of the screen but I get the ache from having that rotten black ribbon notification suddenly block my view of what I am writing in replies to posts. I want to keep the orange roundel at the top right but eradicate that nasty notification that intrudes at the bottom of the page. It only repeats what is in the drop-down menu at the orange roundel. It's not clear which of those two I am dealing with in the account settings page. I only recently realised that there are three types of notification! I have stopped 'browser notifications' but I need help with separating the other two.
  3. Serves you right for peeking. Until Head and Shoulders releases it's prototype development product - Nooks and Crannies - I shall be brushing dandruff off of my shoes for a while yet.
  4. I'm just checking mine for scales...
  5. Hi Matt. Welcome, even though you've been lurking.
  6. If you are a trombonist I'd advise you to open the window first. That or have a glazier handy.
  7. No. There's not enough strings.
  8. I want to see this on an ironing board! It just looks daft on a Black and Decker Workmate.
  9. I could accept this image if it wasn't for the 'stache. That's an excessive number of whiskers so it can not be considered to be a proper moustache.
  10. Would you settle for a slightly used Chapmanchor?
  11. Welcome Dorsetbod.
  12. Hahahahaha. No pressure then.
  13. I like it a lot. With the oddest proportions I have ever seen on a fiddle it's looking proper funky. No leopardskin jacket for this one... ...unless you are the possessive type and you don't want your new squeeze showing leg to just anyone that is.
  14. Alternatively, make a very large pick guard in the colour you want. (Sometimes this is known as a top)
  15. I used to do the music shop shuffle myself. Often, lots of other youths would be slapping away. This was all done on unplugged basses so it was pointless trying out one if you didn't do slap yourself simply because you couldn't hear it above the clickety click that was present all around! You couldn't beat 'em so you had to join 'em. The truth be known, I was known more for influencing people away from the bass altogether I'm afraid. I have one of Level 42's early albums (the second I think) on four track cassette. I think MK was a carpet fitter before that. I loved it. L42 had just got The Chinese Way onto TOTP but I preferred the earlier material. I still do.
  16. Welcome Ownheart. Site Rules I've never heard of a 1/4 sized upright. I can only imagine it to be a bit like an upright violin. Got any photos?
  17. Crikey. You must have had forearms like Popeye!
  18. Welcome Mozzer. I've always wanted to meet a trombonist. I'd have got one myself if I didn't think I might over extend myself.
  19. Beautiful. Again, the headstock is the equal to the body in terms of form. Often they can take second place and let down the overall effect. Enjoy the SW Bash. You have something really special for them.
  20. Great headstock detail. Did you shim the neck in the final event? I noticed it was angled slightly.
  21. That is worth remembering. Thank you.
  22. What about unseen benefits like more bookings than for the shorter gigs?
  23. Welcome Bob. You will find this useful then. Thank you for reminding me of my two years in boarding school. The place was run by priests and nuns and I could not wait to get away from the place. I hated the day boys because they did not have to live with the religious stuff that we had to endure. Your experience sounds a lot better than mine.
  24. Does it pay?
