That makes my eyes go screwy

You are Lord Percy and I claim my £5.

Super Trouper - Abba

We had a shorthaired cat by the same name, when I was a nipper (he was a little ball of fluff as a kitten). Fabulous ratter, scared of heights. Our move to third floor flat was not comfortable for him and he legged it.

Under My Wheels - Alice Cooper

4 strings & 6 ‘saddles’ should raise one’s hackles. However, the pick retention cord, counters that nicely.

Grandma's Feather Bed - John Denver

Don’t Look Down - Go West

Slip Sliding Away - Paul Simon

Bring Me to Life - Evanescence

Mercy Street - Peter Gabriel

Children of the Grave - Sabbath

Lay Your Hands On Me - Bon Jovi (ooh, er, Mrs!)

I have the 40th anniversary and have been impressed by the ‘60s CV. I should also mention that, for my own interest, I carried out a comparison experiment whereby I copied an old live recording I had into GarageBand, sucked out all the bass frequencies and recorded 4 new bass lines, using different basses, both clean and driven. These were a P, a JMJ Mustang, a J type and a fretless, passive, MM type. The stand out winner for me was the passive MM, especially with a little drive.

A Squier 40th Anniversary or CV Precision will do the job nicely. Might need a little extra shielding, but not necessarily (I’ve had full fat Fenders that have needed this, some not).

More producer ideas, more animal centric, albeit normally canine (I’m not being doggist about it though): Butch (Vig) Mutt (Lange)

Studio assistant? Wrong, this is a cat, it’s a producer in its own mind, you’re just the help. With that in mind, Trevor as in Horn.
