    The Pass is the one for me. The first chords are hairs on the back of the neck time.

    Aah, I might be getting confused with Vapour Trails.

    Clockwork Angels has some great tunes on it but I find Nick Raskulinecz’s mix awful, a complete mush with little separation. IIRC there was a remix of Snakes & Arrows that was warmly received, as the original release suffered from the same mushy mix, I hope they do the same for CA.

    Rush’s Presto and Roll The Bones are both seen as dreadful by a lot of the Rush fanbase. However, whilst not maybe their best, I find them both very pleasing and better than some of their other albums.

    Wakeman’s Journey to the Centre of the Earth is marvellous (or at least I used to think so, it’s been a while since I listened to it) and Six Wives is quite good too (previous, bracketed statement applies again). King Arthur wasn’t nearly as good, IMO and doing it on ice was whimsical in the extreme, although this may have been done to distract the audience from the less than stellar music and performance (some of the singing was woefully pitchy IIRC).

    Helps to be a Yes fan.

    I have to admit that I was going to post the same as @hooky_lowdown. Top score, absolute bargain.

    I was ironing, whilst I was watching the Taylor Hawkins tribute last night (in my house, not Wembley, that’d be weird).

    Get it On - T Rex

    It’s a section of lyrics from Yours Is No Disgrace, IIRC.

    Thanks for that clarification. Therefore, without VAT, a blue or white shorty ‘Ray in the UK would be £560 (or thereabouts). Why the black one commands the extra £50 remains a mystery. Is black paint and a tort p/g that much more expensive?

    It looked very much like he was counting and I’m sure there was a hiccup in there somewhere.

    The knobs on the ‘Ray SS are a weird one. They’ve clearly just been put on any old how and not tightened correctly. I think this is partly down to using grub screw knobs are smaller, split shafted pots. It takes a little time to get on straight, tight and without the grub screw tightening on the split and Sterling are clearly just chucking the knobs on and knocking the basses out as quickly as possible. As to pricing, they do seem over priced here and have gone up recently, especially compared to the ‘Ray24, with it being a smaller bass with passive electronics compared to its bigger siblings. However, with regard to prices overseas, are the prices quoted in the US inclusive of their local taxes?

    Poor old Dave, he did seem a bit out of his depth with Geddy & Alex. Stewart Copeland made it look effortless, still one of my favourite drummers.

    With difficulty, it’s never perfect but you can get them back into the card sleeve if you’re quick.

    Yep, that works; classy.
  20. ezbass
    Classy.

    You’re not wrong, even standard sized knobs would’ve been ok, there’s plenty of real estate on the plate. A tooling cost too far for them, I guess.
  25. ezbass
    That would quite decade specific. Often the case.
