  1. Leave the sides and curves blue, it looks really cool like that!
  2. Welcome aboard! How has the live music scene in Toronto recovered since 2020/21?
  3. Noooo!! Don't do it! Welcome aboard, you'll fit right in here 😅
  4. No idea what I'll bring. Most folks have seen the Brawleys, and while they are decent mid-range basses and rare in the UK, they aren't especially valuable or exciting.
  5. Consider a Pauper's Pittance 'guvnor? Cost a' livin's gorn up an' all that.
  6. Lovely 😍. Scrolling with my phone I accidentally stopped between two photographs such that it looked (a bit) like one continuous image. And thought what the hell is that thing behind the headstock for??
  7. Oh agreed - he wasn't anywhere near good enough and I wasn't trying to make excuses for him!
  8. If AP is the vocalist then find another and continue as The Automatic Voles. Good name and good band. Well done. 👍 Singing isn't easy, and those who find it so and can't understand the rest of us should please try to appreciate that. I can hold a tune for about two bars, after that I am in the same league as the chap above! Like skiing, or spin bowling, or playing an instrument, you can learn and get better, but for most folks it isn't effortless.
  9. You could upload to YT, GoogleDrive, etc and post a link. Uploading big files to BC doesn't always work as there's a size limit.
  10. I think I am still able to come, there's been a few swaps on the church rota but it looks clear on the 9th for me at the moment. Do we need to say in advance what we're bringing?
  11. And I thought the most dangerous thing about building basses was using a router. That just requires care, not a hazmat suit.
  12. Yep, specially made for the events but is actually issued to any non-bass players who wander in. Because we're all so cool the room temperature drops substantially so we have to provide suitable clothing. https://www.canadagoose.com/uk/en/snow-mantra-parka-9501M.html?user=true
  13. It sounds like you might have found yourself a decent band to gig with in the future, but will need a new singer. Hope the gig goes OK, and that you and the band enjoy yourselves
  14. Hopefully will be able to PM you this evening 🤞
  15. Is this still available? My son is looking for a 5 string to try.
  16. How about making an extension to the pickguard to cover the damage? If you could initially have it held in place by the nuts on the pots then you would avoid having to drill holes for screws, and so can try before you commit. Something in tort to match what you have?
  17. Funny and sad in equal parts, but only one TLRT available. 😁😢
  18. True, and I'm sure my friend would agree. Clearly in his case he just wasn't taught improvisation and now struggles.
