  1. Perhaps try wiring the p/up directly to the jack socket. That’ll certainly highlight if the circuit is lacking. Even bypassed you’re still going through some parts of it.
  2. Coo! That’s a great weight for any MM, let alone a fiver.
  3. I Can’t Drive 55 - Sammy Hagar
  4. Just as well as they probably don’t mean anything anyway. Outboard, river Bluetail, tailfly Luther, in time Dood'ndoodit, dah, d't-d't-dah
  5. Bad Bad Leroy Brown - Jim Croce
  6. Rocco Prestia endorsed a good many products: Fender, ESP, Conklin, SWR, TC Electronics…
  7. I used to play this in a blues band I was in many years ago. I always liked playing Tommy’s lines, his ability to just sit behind the beat and let Stevie run amok is great and an object lesson in pocket playing. Tommy and Chris Layton are one of my favourite rhythm sections. Check out their playing with Storyville, especially the Piece of Your Soul album.
  8. The 2022 abstinence thread is so far away in your rear view mirror, it’s a tiny speck. 😂 Amazing story, amazing friend. It’s the best colour too. Congrats.
  9. Let’s Make Some Noise - The Tubes
  10. Speak To Me - Pink Floyd
  11. As much as I normally like tort on black, that black on black oozes class.
  12. I mentioned a while,back that I fitted my usual EB Cobalt flatwounds to my JMJ Mustang. When I acquired my Sterling ‘Ray SS, I immediately fitted the same to that. However, it was a 2nd hand set that weren’t as smooth as I’m used to (some roughness around where the frets of the previous bass were). Therefore, yesterday I fitted the Fender flats that came on the Mustang to the ‘Ray. Weirdly, it seems that Fender flats sound better on an EB instrument, whilst EB flats sound better on a Fender instrument. Who knew (it could just be the pickup type of course)?
  13. Congrats. I’ve had mine a while now and I’m very pleased with it.
  14. If an oil finish it is, try taking a nut (walnut, pecan, hazelnut, whatever you have) and rubbing the flesh lightly over the area. This works on some wooden furniture and flooring, might be worth a try.
  15. A white and maple Mullarkey is pretty much top of my GAS list.
  16. I have 4 passive basses and one Sadowsky preamp pedal, it was a lot cheaper than adding a preamp to all of them. The only downside is that adjustments on the fly are harder, but not impossible.
  17. I’m disappointed, I thought it was going to be Humble & Packham stalking Mr May.
  18. That ‘Ray5 😍
  19. When adding new posts to threads today, the site seems to be stalling on "saving', requiring a page refresh to see the post. Anyone else having got is issue? I'm using Safari. EDIT: It didn't happen to post this question.
  20. They really are quite the talented couple. DT’s slide playing is always amazing and ST is no slouch either, plus the voice. On the whole, I quite liked the recreation, but I missed the massive drum sound. Should’ve got Jason B to do it.

    They breed too.

    Greetings!

    It wasn’t until I got to number 5 that I realised that the list was bass related and not, er, um. Perhaps I’ll just leave it there.
