  1. I love my current gig but man, I wanna do a Beck tribute act, I just love the basslines and the general madness of it all 👍
  2. You get good at doing what you do a lot of, you mime a lot you get bloody good at it 😕
  3. Perhaps the ratings are technically correct but in terms of volume and heft they certainly disappoint when compared to units rated at similar levels
  4. His instructional video is equally rather sad, I watched it the whole way through once and could never do it again. Takes nothing away from what he contributed to music and to the bass in particular, but as you say, a very long way from the glory days......
  5. I've lost interest in vintage instruments, I used to love the mojo and feel of a 60's or 70's Precision, but ultimately they're an expensive - and increasingly a risky - luxury, I can make often equal quality instruments from some carefully selected used parts on eBay 👍
  6. I looked and there was a message in red stating ‘Frequently Returned’. I don’t ever order strings from Amazon having done it once before 🤔
  7. I’m not cheap 👍😆
  8. Yep, me, I’m an advocate of the use it lose approach to back strength however, so I’m quite happy that way 👍
  9. I agree, I'd be hard pushed to describe any objective difference in tone between many modern 12s and traditional 15s, but - and I'm sure there's a lot of personal bias in the mix - I always prefer 15s for the feel (although I'm using a Mesa 1516 so not a 15 alone)
  10. Sounds good to me mate 👍
  11. Spot on Brian, it does show two things, firstly how easy it is (or could be), and secondly that people are willing to do it. Be on your guard folks, and remember that vintage guitars = antiques = shit loads of money and shady practices
  12. And me mate. I understand Brian's perhaps not in an easy position, but I'm very keen to learn the identity of the guy doing the faking, after all he could be using feedback on his work from this forum to perfect his work before he starts flooding the market with fakers....
  13. Please Sir, Joel's sticking his tongue out at me, can I use the smacked bottom emoji in return?
  14. Confirmed here....
  15. I'm gonna us an FOI request
  16. A couple of more things have sold this morning Unbranded maple fretless Precision neck Black Precision body Wizard Thumper PUP
  17. I understood @ped was reconfiguring the site as pickguardchat.co.uk as there has been significantly more discussion of that topic than almost all others recently (although freedomfromamplifierschat.co.uk is also under consideration) 👍
  18. ........crikey 🤔
