Magic - Pilot

Still Life - Van Der Graaf Generator

Sugar, Sugar - The Archies

If I had the money I would have a house full of vintage synthesizers.

The last couple of gigs I did before knocking the whole business on the head was with a CMD121P combo. I was amazed how well it coped with a full band, no problems at all. A couple of other people used it so I was able to hear how good it sounded out front too. Excellent amp.

Love that finish.

I figured that the Alembic in it's case with the power supply & stuff (if this model has one, that is) would be pretty weighty.

There are lots of really good videos on the Stewmac website, covering all manner of set-up, repair & finishing topics from beginner to advanced. https://www.stewmac.com/video-and-ideas/

He should change his name to Ioan Llys. Llys has a few different meanings in Welsh - one of them is "Hall" or "Court", another one just happens to be "Slime" or "Mucous"... 😶

He's not shacked up with John Hall is he?

That's nice. Vantage were really good quality instruments.

Is that the Alembic?

Northwest Guitars do a good range of paints & stains. https://www.northwestguitars.co.uk/northwest-guitars-paint-shop/

I wasn't being entirely serious. 🙂 It's amazing how much weight packaging can add if it's done properly.

16.8lbs? Must be a late 70s Precision then.

I do it all myself, with the exception of fret work. I've not had to touch the Bacchus bass I bought on here recently though, as it's the best set-up bass I've ever owned. @Shepster8316 did a superb job on it.

Superb album. I'm a huge fan of Anais Mitchell, I've got everything she's done.

L'il Beethoven - Sparks

When I took my stepson to see them a while ago the bassist was using Spectors. I'm pretty sure he also had a Spector signature model at one point, so possibly a Spector...?

The Last Ride - Todd Rundgren

Sun Arise - Rolf Harris

Kas is a superb Musician. As well as being an excellent bassist he's also a really good guitarist, keyboard player, singer & songwriter. He's been mainly associated with Todd Rundgren since the mid 70s when he joined Utopia (which is how he ended up playing on "Bat Out of Hell"). He still plays in Todd's touring band. He's also played with Joan Jett & Hall & Oates among many others.

Hit Me With Your Best Shot - Pat Benatar

The tape measure thumb rest spoils it.

Exactly this. It's easy for people to beach & moan when they're not the ones that have to deal with the consequences, even if that is only having to interact with unpleasant emails. If I was one of the owners/administrators of Basschat, I would think the prospect of Rickenbacker finally deciding to make an example of a site ignoring their threats as a warning to others would be enough to justify the ban staying in place.
