  1. Careful With That Axe, Eugene - Pink Floyd
  2. I see what you’ve done there. Dear Prudence - Siouxsie & the Banshees
  3. When working out the bass lines for various covers, I’ll often reach for the classical guitar as it sits next to the computer and is less faff than plugging the bass in, turning the amp on, etc and its tone just seems to work for this purpose, like a bass but an octave up.
  4. Dear Diary - Moody Blues
  5. Nice 👍. Anyone who can play the guitar at all should have a nylon strung one in the house. I finally bought one a couple of years ago, after decades of not owning one and it’s the guitar I pick up the most.
  6. Dundee was my nearest store and I bought and traded gear there. My nearest instrument store is now GG Edinburgh AFAIK, which isn’t a lot further than Dundee for me. However, for those whose local store was Aberdeen, this is real kick in the nuts, not to mention the staff at all the branches. Hopefully, there will be some sort of buy out and reopening 🤞.
  7. Strawberry Fields Forever - The Beatles
  8. Cut The Cake - AWB
  9. I had Live and Let Live, back in the day. I still think it rates as one of the best live albums captured on tape. Totally agree.
  10. White Line Fever - Motörhead
  11. I cut them as I don’t like too much wrap on the posts. This is what my headstock looks like…
  12. Yes, all good.
  13. Marathon - Rush
  14. Oh yes, she has just as many chops on the cello as the bass too. On top of all that, she seems like the nicest person too. Don’t you just hate her?
  15. Blue Monday - New Order
  16. Napoleon Bona, Parts One & Two - Budgie Edit - Gah! Now my post makes no sense. I started with Thunder's Loser, (Boney losing at Waterloo and all that) but rethought it for Budgie, but now it's a total non sequitur
  17. Lovely Day - Bill Withers
  18. Depends on your definition of affordable. However, it has to be remembered that flats typically last way longer than rounds, so they might even work out cheaper in the long run. With that said, there are some for sale from JLP...
  19. Had to do some side by side comparisons to make my final selections. Well done all.
  20. Permission granted.
  21. Just for reference, I resized these 2 Rics (4003s & 4030) to the same scale, to show the relative pickup positions. The bridge pickup is just about OK (still a little south of where you'd ideally want it), but the neck is way off, as has already been mentioned.
  22. Mick Karn, Pino, Alan Spenner on Roxy’s Flesh & Blood, John Giblin, Geddy, Derek Forbes.
