Hey gang Following a recent fling with a '63 Precision, which made me realise the early 60's neck profile isn't for me, I'm back in the bosom of the lovely fat early 70s P neck. I picked this up a few days ago - it's a '72, with a neck stamp dated the month & year of my birth. It's light (about 8.5lbs) and resonant, original black, with a maple neck. They're just teaser pics at the moment as it needs a little bit of love, but I'll post the full story soon. In the meantime, I can barely stop playing it...

Here you go:

No cab required 🙂

R-400 or WB-100?

Of late? They've always looked minging*. *IMO, and not intended to be a comment on their performance

WE HAVE A WINNER!

There’s a Detroit link...

OK.. here you go: https://soundcloud.com/wateroftyne/home-9-01 (Not sure why it didn't embed..?)

Pipped again!

Don’t Give Up...

I think Fender own the rights to them now.

I just got asked to do this again in February. Oh... go on, then. As usual, I have no idea who might be on the bill (and I couldn't say even if I did), but I'll post a new thread nearer the time.

Beautiful! What’s the weight?

IMO rounds. Every now and then he hits the low E (the very last note he plays, for example) and you can hear the round bark. The rest of the time it doesn't sound a million miles from flats. I think the muting has a lot to do with that.

Had I been that age, with the right qualifications, I'd have been up there myself. It's still wrong, though. They're only paying nothing 'cos they know they can get away with it.

Was the festival you played at a British Armed Forces' flagship event, sponsored by Arnold Clark, Sheraton Grand and Interserve amongst others? With guaranteed full houses every night with tickets costing £££? If so, then no - it's not much different.

The MU are on to it, so I assume(!) they're aware of the detail.

Nah, they should just pay people for their labour, out of the big pile of cash they’re sitting on.

This is pretty outrageous, I reckon.

Aww... don't you want me? 😞

Right. I think I need this.

Have we seen a Charcoal Frost Limelight yet?

You got it! That initial A surprised me. It feels like it should be a D, but... it ain't.

You're right. Have a little lie down and it might come to you.

OK... it's from a double album, which should give you some clue as to the genre...
