  1. French Kissing in the USA - Debbie Harry
  2. Billericay Dickie - Ian Dury & Co (again)
  3. I love those Big Singles. I had an SR1605 and when I first played it at a gig, where I was plainly digging in a bit more, I initially wondered where the glorious, raunchy sound was coming from and it took a little while to realise it was me. It was a really nice bass but, at the time, I found the body a bit small for me. Nowadays, with my playing more short scales, it wouldn’t be an issue at all, although I still don’t like the gold hardware.
  4. Wheat ‘Til Tomorrow Comes - Eurythmics
  5. I wonder if it’s named for Brian Bromberg?
  6. The Size of a Cow - The Wonder Stuff
  7. She’s Got The Jack (Russell) - AC/DC
  8. I wouldn’t have thought a few thousandths of an inch would be a particularly big issue. I restrung my Rob Allen 5 string E-C once and it didn’t need any adjustment and there was about a 0.025 difference there (changed it back as I didn’t like it particularly). Try it and see.
  9. Snickers Sally Through The Alley - Robert Palmer
  10. A quick Google search brought up a definition in the first result. It was an extract from an antiques website. It said that, amongst the antique industry, vintage is 40+ years, with antique being 100+. However, if anything, antique dealers' definitions are often what will net them the best price (although antique has always been viewed as 100 years IIRC). Vintage just means of an age, that said, I reckon 40 years is a reasonable definition.
  11. Certainly the case for acoustic instruments, although 24 hours seems excessive. Leave it for an hour if you're concerned at all, then rip away.
  12. I think it depends on the ergonomics of the instrument. My 33" customs (I have 2) feel as long as my standard 34" P. However, my 35" Rob Allen feels much shorter than the numbers suggest. My 30" Mustang feels much longer than my old 30" shorty 'Ray.
