Also did a so called Fringe Festival thing somewhere or other, and my "witty" parting shot was.. "if this is a fringe festival, I reckon I've won already.. Thank you an good nite..." ( I'm a card ain't I ..)

I've never thrown roundwounds away either, unless they're snapped..

Certainly sound good enough to me, for the purpose anyhow. I've had a bit of a scan thru them, interesting stuff I'll end up trying out some Beatles songs if I'm not careful.. 😁

Gone no doubt...

I'd say probably way more people play predominantly down strokes. The upstroke malarkey is maybe a bit of a thing among the "started in the punk era" and certainly "never had lessons" mob, of which I'm guilty on both counts.

Ahh.. In my younger days... (falls over...) 😁

I actually like the headstock idea.. But 4 grand +++, seriously?

Blimey, you sure it wasn't "it's a Knockout"... 😁

I can't see that, just a load of adverts andcrap! I'll see if I can take a pic of mine OK Dimensions are 4ft at longest point, 16 ins at widest (plus c. half a fingernail in both cases) HTH

Kind of low but neck angled upwards. I just measured the strap and it's 55 ins buttonhole to buttonhole (I'm about 6ft tall)

I used a rather triangular (rather than guitarry) shape Levys gig bag with mine, in fact I got it with the bass. Fitted well and did the job.

You tease us.. Let's see some of those, right here, right now.. 😁

Very impressive indeed 👍

This is an absolute cracker.. I will go back to the beginning and check out the whole thing, top class work sir 👍

If you're coming from being a finger player I guess the fingers are generally doing up strokes by their very nature so it'd make sense. I've always been mainly a pick player so that's not why I evolved preferring up strokes. I've ever analysed any of this either but interesting anyway, I wonder how many others out there are upstroke - centric?

I'd suggest he just plays like that! I use up strokes all the time, always have done since day one, no doubt it's "wrong" but it seems natural and works for me. I kind of doubt he's thought "oh I'll use up strokes" as an "effect"

The bit at the beginning is that annoying Xmas thing by CacMartney.... 😂

Tho not ever particularly a Beatles fan myself.. I found this by accident and thought it might be of interest

Not problem as such, just that they're (or the stuff I've seen is) very mass produced cheapo parts, quite adequate for a budget build project, but certainly nothing to say "ooh Wilkinson" about 😁

Me too, I think of Wilkinson stuff as cheapish ebay fare, certainly nothing to big up!

Jah Wobble moonlighting on bass.....

I was pulling your leg again, that's an expression meaning a good natured teasing joke! Emo is a rock genre kind of distantly related to Goth in a way, probably best to Google it for examples to listen to (tho I doubt you'd be very keen on it!) My Chemical Romance would be one example

It's like Emo but it's all about him.. 😂
