    I try to rotate, but whatever is new tends to get attention. The Flea Jazz is the most frequent occupier of the stand by my desk, but recently the Performer has got a lot of attention.

    ? ! It's a bit heavy but...

    Go and feast on your feeelthy sprouts instead!

    My concern was that it doesn't end up surrounded by acoustic wadding.

    Brilliant, name up in lights!

    Make sure the resistor is mounted so air can move freely around it.

    It would be cool to anodises the fret lines in groovy colours... however in situ anodising could be difficult, requiring the neck to be in a bath co sulphuric acid. Is it possible they could be safely removed and re-inserted?

    Maybe a green one? Anyway it's mostly, so I can fit a scratchplate to it and prove my point 🙂

    Given his, ahem, generous collection, I'm sure the Doctor could spare one for you?

    Stop showing me photos of those!

    True, but it does show how dramatic an effect it can be.

    I think strong colours, good finishes and distinctive without being wacky designs are a good base to work from. There is a real gap for a UK manufacturer addressing the 'affordable but not cheap' market. What you need most of all is visibility beyond us lot. I'd be sending an offer of a sponsor deal to a few emerging dinstinctively british bands. Wet Leg?

    The reality of this has been underlined for me by the way my TE 4x10 combo reacts to being close to a wall ... the amount of bottom end becomes huge, too huge.

    Eliza Holt very memorable live, good song to make a strong first impression.

    I find I am using my hotone nano into my PJB C5. Kind of odd combination of chesp and cheerful and not cheap bug still cheerful! Sound is remarkably good even at low volume.

    This, and using a half-decent soldering iron

    One appeal of the Flea jazz ... it hardly screams 'funk-rock slap-fest' and the signature neck plate is uber-tasteful.

    I play it fingerstyle three!

    If a bass was designed by a committee...

    All done now 🙌

    I got the CD

    They cut their own throat by bigging up a show just for bass then watering it down and fown again. The reports are exactly what I expected it to be like. Would rather travel for a bass bash.

    Full size Hohner drumkit with two drum mounted toms, floor tom, and all breakables. Non matching snare. Faded red colour. Tatty but fully working when last set up. Some minor issues e.g. bass drum rim a bit chewed where beater pedal fits. Snare needs bew bottom skin but could be temporarily patched with duct tape. Would benefit from being set up by an experienced drummer. Includes throne and new cowbell. Might even be able to find some sticks. If cleaned up would be a nice vintage looking kit. Was gigging kit of the guy I bought it from. Probably worth a fair bit, but I want it to go to a youngster or someone who really needs a giggable kit but can't afford it. Please don't buy it to sell on. No photos as broken down for transport/storage. Happy to give free to enthusiastic youngster. Must be collected.

    I went ahead and used the hollow bits to drill out the screws, then glued in two wooden plugs with two part epoxy. Need to mark up and drill for the new screws - and get new screws, they are 74mm below the head, just under 3"
