  1. Sound Of The Underground - Girls Aloud
  2. Special Brew - Bad Manners
  3. Strange Brew - Cream
  4. I've owned copies of them all... except for the Fender Jazz (MIM if that counts). Only ever really wanted own a Ric out of that lot though. And a Thunderbird.
  5. Mama Weer All Crazee Now - Slade / Quiet Riot
  6. Agreed
  7. Yup, cocktail sticks or matchsticks. Use PVA or some other wood glue. Again, like @mcnach says, I've sometimes just used the sticks on their own, but the glue adds a little "piece of mind" (even though it can get a little messy).
  8. Always remember the Aria Pro ads from the mid-late-80's with @neilmurraybass. Also remember being dragged along to "We Will Rock You" (herself loves a musical, and it was the only one I'd agree to go to!), and being thoroughly overjoyed at realising that it was Neil Murray himself on bass.
  9. Wind of Change - The Scorpions
  10. Coptic Times - Bad Brains
  11. Now that's pretty cool, though I would expect that the less than PC punters would use it to question the bass player's sexuality. However, I doubt that any of the 30 will ever be played in public.
  12. I remember looking at a checker bound Jetglo 4001, that was decidedly "relic-ed", but the shop was still asking big bucks for it in the late 80's.
  13. Remember You're A Womble - The Wombles
  14. The back of the Blue Burst was... blue burst. A friend of mine back in the late 80's had an Azureglo, gorgeous bass, I was of course, insanely jealous, and of course being the 80's, he got it for a song.
  15. Gloria - Patti Smith
  16. Must admit, I was saddened when they decided to discontinue the Midnight Blue option, always thought that (and the 4001 Azureglo) was a great colour. And although I have a Jetglo, I do prefer the natural finishes. Just wish they'd use more figured woods for the Mapleglo basses. The Walnut one's are great because they have more variation in the wood.
  17. More, More, More - Bananarama
  18. Real Wild Child (Wild One) - Iggy Pop
  19. My Sharona - The Knack
  20. Don't Worry, Be Happy - Bobby McFerrin
  21. Enter Sandman - Metallica
  22. My old 4003, and my current one are certainly no lightweights. Not overly heavy, but certainly "substantial". The Walnut one's I've seen and tried seemed pretty light though.
  23. You Gotta Roll With It - Oasis
  24. Does it have to be a head and a cab? For that money you could get a Fender Rumble 500 v3 and possibly the cab as well if you shop around. IIRC, the combo weighs around 17kg. You do see them come up second hand as well. There's always the Ashdown Rootmaster's (the 500 is 18kg) and the new OriginAL 300 2x10 combo (about 15kg). Quite sure that there are other lightweight combo options available.
