  1. first caught them at hammy odeon, farewell to kings tour ..then hemispheres followed by permanent waves ...then over to wembley arena for moving pictures ...started getting into more 80s style bands after that ...rush were really a 70s band in my mind, 80s never really suited their style.
  2. i don't really understand the question?
  3. all electros have the piezo under the bridge just like rob allen and the same scale as the 34" rob allen mb2 ...asthetics aside this technically is the same as an mb2 plus an additional conventional pickup ... i was a bit hesitant to mention status as they seem to be semi retired these days...second hand is rare but they do come up from time to time. Personally i think this latest version of the electro is not as good looking as the rob allen. Also i think rob allen just sounds better but that's just an educated guess as i have never played an electro, just heard it on you tube.
  4. that's what happens when you miss the mixing session.
  5. this may have already been mentioned but for low b definition i would suggest auditioning a status graphite with the graphite neck ...the pickup quality is a given.
  6. enfield ...rare as hens teeth..
  7. the bass was easily the best thing about it ...that's my diplomatic answer ..oh and .the singing is dreadful.
  8. don't forget uk import tax ..20% ouch.
  9. this was done by tiny tone ...definitely send in the original to copy and for vinterra vi guards you need to ask for the screw holes to be added above and below the control plate because fender in their wisidom copied custom shop which has also got it wrong and missed them off from the original... squire has actually got it correct in this regard. I still need to add the screws themselves.
  10. fender musicmaster status s2 wall mkii
  11. bugger..i only have cash.
  12. jack bruce taught me that you do not have to play a fretless as a fretless.
  13. it's a fair likeness i agree but like i said the real rod is working the drinks section of my local tescos ...
  14. i can't see how since he's working in my local tesco's.
  15. as you age the one thing that is sure to decrease is collagen ..the stuff that lines the surface of your ball joints.
  16. i had some recent dealings with them regarding a stock bass ... pretty much no enthusiasm whatsoever to follow through, just unanswered emails. I might try and get some strings before it really is too late.
  17. pmt was ok ...i bought a squire and even had a couple of basses worked on plus strings and pedals ..i think there is now no other option for me other than online.
  18. would have thought they might have relocated the operation outside of the uk ..the brand is strong and quality can be maintained if the will is there, the days of asia producing rubbish are behind us.
