  1. Yes, it's that reference to the pickup that has loud alarm bells ringing for me.
  2. By halfway through the first song you'll be hooked. Enjoy the years of poverty ahead!! 🙂
  3. I have a Pbass with '68 electrics and my recent SVL Pbasses have 5% overwound Lindy Fralins which are pretty much the same.
  4. The one in this review is unsurpassed, apparently. 🙂
  5. I knew he could do it but then ....... I believe in miracles!!
  6. Certainly the Ibis Budget had parking but not reserve'able and no space left when getting back late after the gig. Cheap and functional for sure but having to park the van a small distance away didn't help me nod off very quickly.
  7. Did he prefer it through a valve amp (ducks)?
  8. Fair point!!!
  9. I would avoid Ibis Budget. Notice how the shower cubicle opens straight into the room and the sink is actually in the room. This is a twin room. Not overly keen on having my bandmate watch me clean my nadgers!!
  10. I have done the same with these straps. The proper way round means the buckle is at the front so I always attached it the other way round because the buckle (and double thickness) was at the back. That made the bass far more comfortable to wear and helps keeps the bass balanced.
  11. I dare you to get the shirt!! Which bass have you ordered?
  12. Nice bass but typically horrible attempt at a tort guard. Far too red. That's always going to be the problem, good tort guards are like hen's teeth. Great starting point though as Japanses Fenders are superb instruments. I bought 2 or 3 from Ishibashi.
  13. Hello from Waterlooville. Have you had a look in the Southsea Guitar Centre? Good place to look for s/h stuff.
  14. Exactly that. If you want Flea's bass line then go and hire him. When playing covers I will include any important elements (if there are any, of course) but, otherwise, you get what I reckon works best. Personally, I can think of nothing worse than painstakingly reproducing any 'official' version of a song.
  15. Yes, they're like Ivan - Terrible!
  16. They've just to take the right Steppes.
  17. A bit of a chill round the Urals!!
  18. I thought about it but it just seemed too Volga (I'll get me coat).
  19. Will we? I mean, seriously? 😉
  20. In my band, we take out all the expenses and divvy up afterwards.
  21. Hook my thumb onto the pickup cover.
