    If budget is tight, and you want something useable, get some pals in and shoot it handheld with phones. They tend to be stabilised and have better dynamic range than zoom stuff, which in gig lighting is either very noisy, or blows out the highlights. You can always drop the audio in from a zoom recorder.

    Ha ha… absolute cack!

    It’s Yes though. It’s a travesty.
  4. wateroftyne
    Compare and contrast. A travesty.

    They really need to jack it in. They're just dreadful, in the studio and live. In the meantime, Jon Anderson is on the road having a whale of a time with the Band Geeks, playing Yes stuff with energy and enthusiasm (and apparently Boris Johnson on drums).

    I can't see it happening any time soon.....
  7. wateroftyne
    I wouldn’t hesitate to get another Limelight.
  8. wateroftyne
    OMG I love it.... (and it goes without saying I'm not Chuck Rainey 😆)

    I would say so. Anything that introduces an element of doubt would. That said, it’s not an unusual occurrence, and it seems to be legit.

    Being Sean Hurley helps too 🙂

    No-one has got to the bottom of that one. 'Exhibition Special' is mentioned a fair bit.
  12. wateroftyne
    Exactly right. Managed to get it back thanks to the kindness of the chap who bought it off me.
  13. wateroftyne
    Thinking about it... probably not. They sound different enough to justify both, I think.
  14. wateroftyne
    Could also be Laklands (which are GHS Precision Flats in disguise)
  15. wateroftyne
    Three gigs in... it's an absolute belter!

    ^^ Agree - this is the only issue I'm aware of. Last time I spoke to Mark he was aware of the problem, so maybe have a word with him to see if he's changed his approach.

    Do the edges of Bravewoods still look like they’ve been nibbled by hamsters?
  18. wateroftyne
    The story around it is harder to fake, though.
  19. wateroftyne
    I really don't think Andy Baxter would stake his reputation on something like this if he wasn't 100% certain of its provenance. Do you?
  20. wateroftyne
    100%. And the good folk of Basschat could up it to 200%.
  21. wateroftyne
    I dunno. We’re talking a lot of money here, so if you’re going to fake it your story had better be watertight. Presumably the guy was fairly well known around that circuit, and people could vouch for the bass… or flag it if it’s fishy.
  22. wateroftyne
    ‘…much reduced.’
  23. wateroftyne
    Of course the story is important. For romantic reasons and because you know what you’re getting. The alternative is to pay less for something with a sketchy history, which of course is the more common route. As for the price, this is a 61 - not a 62 or 63. There really can’t be many of these in the UK. Regarding the case, I seem to recall that imports didn’t come with one, and Arbiter provided their own? Might well be wrong on that, mind.
  24. wateroftyne
    At this level, along with the known history, I think it does (assuming there’s plenty of wiggle-room on the asking price).
  25. wateroftyne
    As tidy as this one? With candy and provenance?
