    Bit of an emergency. Dep required Tomorrow 12 midday 08/01/24 for paid rehearsal in Pontypridd South Wales paid half MU performance rate plus travel expenses (out of my own pocket) 

    I have all the dots and setlist with links to the tracks 

    I’ve dislocated my shoulder and broken my little finger falling down the stairs

      Only just saw this @Phill glad you're sorted for cover.
      Hope your shoulder and finger are on the mend asap.

      Ooooh - what have you bought? Do tell.....
      I must admit, the fact that it's more than one does make suspicious that you have won the lottery ;)

      You're right you shouldn't have...as your punishment you should have to send them to me so that you learn your lesson.

      Harsh maybe, but sometimes tough love is the best way.

      New Overwater soon & a P Bass coming today hopefully lads!

      It went well! It's a 1972 previously owned by Dave Peacock from Chas & Dave 👍

    Heres a post I've written about my new Overwater Custom P5 including pics, videos & specs https://www.phillcourtmusic.com/single-post/2019/05/14/My-Custom-Overwater-Bass

    1. SICbass

      SICbass

      Thanks for that. Some nice sounds and tight playing.

      You may have ordered/designed what just about adds up to being my dream bass. I hadn't particularly thought about an Overwater before but that really does tick a lot of boxes.

      Enjoy....

      ..and thanks again from the review.

    2. Phill

      Phill

      @SICbass Thank you for the kind words! Originaly I was gonna get a Sandberg VM 5 which is similar, but a lot of my mates have custom/signature Overwaters & I had a great deal on a custom built bass

      You lucky bar steward 😉  Love the surf green btw.

    Anyone know any UK boutique pedal builders who makes Auto-Wah's?

    1. JapanAxe

      JapanAxe

      ThorpyFX were planning to release a pedal based on the old Lovetone Meatball but apparently that's gone on the back burner because of component supply issues.

       

      Sorry, that doesn't help you much!

    2. JapanAxe

      JapanAxe

      Why not buy the auto wah kit of your choice (based on whatever boutique pedal) from somewhere like Jed's Peds or Fuzzdog, and either build it yourself or pay/convince a friend to do it for you.

    3. Phill

      Phill

      JapanAxe I like your thinking! Thanks :)

      Nice Phill! I know Freddy V the sax player very well and he mentioned the theft of the instruments, what a drag for Alan and Onnie, however I'm sure Alan was very glad to be leant such a killer instrument!

  11. Phill

    16 gigs came in today! MD'ing 13 of them too 👌

    In the middle of a house move & seriously underestimated how much bass stuff I've accumulated 😂

    1. geoham

      geoham

      It's easy done!
      I'm doing a minor clear out of stuff at the moment, so I know the feeling.
      On Sunday, my old man asked me 'How many basses to you have?'
      'Three. Actually four. No Five!'

       

    2. Daz39

      Daz39

      Yeah - I know the feeling. We did an urgent declutter (3 trips to tip, 2 to charity shop) before listing our house for sale, and now we need to declutter properly in advance of moving. So much junk!

    3. TheGreek

      TheGreek

      OK, I get the hint - I'll come and get it tomorrow.

  13. Phill

    Can anyone identify these tuners I’ve just found. I know they’re Hipshot Ultralight's but not the exact model

      Looks like a HB6C 1/2" in matt chrome?

    2. Phill

      Phill

      @Rich cheers!

    3. Rich

      Rich

      The 1/2" is a guess; you'll need to measure the string post diameter to establish if it's a 1/2 or a 3/8.

  14. Phill

    Got a last minute Vulf ticket!!!!

      Such a great bassist. Any news on how he's doing nowadays?

    3. Phill

      Phill

      He's doing okay, I have very limited contact with him, but he is aware of the article & such. Need to get a few copies of it asap 

  18. Phill

    Great week recording in Weston! Managed to get some articles, remote sessions & plenty of pints done too 😁 back to flooded Wales tomorrow & a new student starting

      Sounds like you had a cracking week there matey :)  Don't forget to post some links to the recorded material, or snippets of it
      ..... and next time, some beer samples wouldn't go amiss either ;)

    2. Phill

      Phill

      It was tiring but worth it!, Will do when it's released. I filmed a bit but I'm not allowed to post it 🙃 John Smith's was lovely at £2.80 a pint 👌

    Been working on a special project for the last few months!

      As a near Xmas baby I can say that's really cruel. I also have two friends whose birthdays are on Xmas day. Baby Court will always hear "I got this for your birthday AND Xmas....". They will never have their own special day.

       

      I think they should ban sex in late March!!

       

      😒😒

       

      BTW Congratulations!!

      My late Dad was born on Christmas Day and given the middle name of Noel. It really didn't suit him and he never used it.

      Oh and congratulations!
