We'll probably do a KISS in a few years, so all is not lost. Enjoying the death metal though.

After 33 years, my covers band, The Three Amoebas, grind to a halt. Admittedly we've done naff all for the past few years, with just the odd gig here and there. The band has always been a complete laugh and piss take, doing rock/metal/punk covers the way we want. People have always liked us, possibly because they're usually mates😄. We've been good friends since the eighties, but sort of drifted offvto do other stuff life wise, musically and job wise. The drummer's on Talksport and Planet Rock, and recording his own stuff, the guitarist has his other bands, and I'm doing old school death metal. Our last ever gig is in June. A bit bittersweet, but hey, life goes on.

Glad you got it in the end. Nice bass.

Vio-lence and Exhorder last Friday. Both blasts from the past.

Was in tribute called Punk Floyd. Played the whole of Darkside in twelve minutes.... imagine the Dickies on fast forward.

Im in the area, whereabouts in Brum? Im a lefty, but can give it a once over.

Yeah, the specialist mentioned surgery down the line. Hopefully it won't get that bad, but it doesn't look like it'll clear up on its' own.

Morning, just been diagnosed with Dupuytrens Contracture in my left hand little finger Not far advanced at the moment..... Fortunately Im a left handed player who uses a plectrum....😄 Anyone else have this, and has it affected your playing?

Ive got the lefty one of that. The neck is definitely narrower than the Mk1 Metro Express 5, which is really wide for a 5 string, compared to my Stingray, Sadowsky, Sandberg and Steinberger 5 necks. The Metroline is definitely the best neck of the lot. Beautiful bass by the way.

Does the guitar hide your truss and scaffolding needed to hold it?

I went out to try a Spector and came back with a Sadowsky...... 😁

Hercules with the neck grab.

That's cool. Any idea what it is/was? Reminds me of a Jackson Kelly....

Best so far, complete GRBass backline, and finding a Westone Spectrum DX, which was my first good bass at a really good price.
