Perfectly happy using either, just depends on the sound I'm going for.

Not being able to count bars is not "playing by feel".

They will offer you flatness.

Beautiful White - The Pursuit of Happiness

My Shadow in Vain - Tubeway Army

Genius, along with iconic, is a word that is used far too freely. The Police were a superb band, definitely one of the most influential bands of their time. Loved his earlier solo stuff but lost interest after 10 Summoners Tales. Seen him live quite a few times too & he was always never less than excellent. Incredibly talented undoubtably. Genius? Probably not. I haven't watched the interview thing as I can't stand Rick Beato, he's the worst kind of shouting-at-clouds old fart muso IMO.

Is that Shawn Smith? I love his solo stuff, got a few of his albums.

So you're just a singer now then? 🙂

ALL second guitarists are questionable... 🙂

Sweet!

The last few times I've bought leads I got them from a place called Ultimate Pro Audio on Ebay. Van Damme cable, Neutrik jacks, lots of colour & length options. Excellent quality leads for very reasonable prices.

Monster cables were known for this too.

That wouldn't put me off, no. Having said that, as someone who would rather slam his knackers in the fridge door than ever play in a band again I wouldn't reply to any "bassist wanted" ads. 😂

I don't think torturing prisoners is allowed anymore, is it?

I've always equated it with being a good way to get people to pay a premium for rotten/diseased wood. 😂

Same a spalting, which is a fungal growth found in dead and diseased trees.

I'd take Jon Anderson's nonsensicle hippy cobblers over Peart's verbose chin stroking earnestness any day of the week if I'm honest.

I took my stepson to see them live ages ago. I was very pleasantly surprised, bloody good live band, excellent sound.

Neil Peart should have had money taken off him for some of his lyrics, especially on the later albums.

I'd think John Illsey Would be a contender for that title too.

If he hasn't changed his strings since he started the thread they should be pretty dead by now.

Teenage Rampage - Sweet

Rics are through necks, not set necks (apart from the 3001, which is a bolt-on).

I was in my 40's before I lived somewhere that had central heating.
