    Hi folks. I’ve moved onto 5 and 6 string basses so this bass is currently not being used. I bought it new from The Bass Gallery in the UK at the start of June. However, when my tech installed the strap locks (in the proper way I should add), the paint appeared to flake on the upper horn. Not sure why, not sure if there was an issue before and the strap pin replacement made it obvious or something… however, my guys have sealed it again (sans one piece of paint that went missing at a band practice). Highly annoying. I have included a photo of this. (They have advised that the didn’t use a drill or electric screwdriver to screw in too quick etc so who knows). There’s no other marks on it. It’s been used for maybe one or two band practices before I decided to use 5s, and has not been gigged yet. The photos don’t show it well but it’s a lovely white pearl finish. It’s currently tuned to CGCF. I’ll include the strap locks too. Based in Aberdeen, Scotland but happy to ship.

    Which Dingwall was it? I’m wondering if it’s one I’ve purchased 😂 I’ve bought and sold loads with Will. I’ve loads of time for him. Great guy.

    I’ve injured myself in a variety of ways in the past, back, legs, shoulders, wrists. You name it, I’ve hurt it! I used to do obstacle races loads and did thai boxing. One of my Thai coaches suggested i try something called Kinetic chain release when I’d gubbed my knee at tough mudder. Physio wasn’t helping and I was getting low (emotionally… I couldn’t even bend my knee to use the bog!) Gave it a shot and it was night and day. I have no idea how it works or why. But it’s helped when I’ve broken myself. I still call the person who does it my witch doctor. I should add, I am not spiritual in the slightest. She had helped with loads of other conditions (sciatica etc) that people I knew had. I think there are practitioners everywhere, I would certainly give it a look!

    We had a guy buy our first EP and describe us as “Cyber Nu-Metal”; new one on me! also countryfile… and Reddit!?

    It is indeed. Just sent you a message.

    Yeah - Will is pretty responsive on phone or WhatsApp. I’ve bought and sold a fair amount of basses with him.

    Ahhh that’s a fair one. The Ibanez fanned fret bass maybe? EHB I think?

    I would think a normal 5 string would be fine. Though I can vouch for Dingwalls. Great basses.

    My wife’s dads was entertaining (musically). Walking in was stuff like the bare necessities, born to run etc. At the end, he insisted he wanted firestarter (he was being cremated), run like hell (to tell everyone to bugger off) and schools out (again to say it was done). He was a great guy. We Miss him.

    Awful.

    I agree. Bolt on necks only too

    Some of them look lovely. Weird about the graphite though. FWIW if anyone wants a 4 string “classic” Chris wolstenholme with neck through and more graphite than you can shake a stick at… hit me up 😂 The dude who recently bought it on eBay doesn’t appear to be paying. Sigh.

    To be fair, I wonder if they’ll have as much traffic going forward. Maybe the excitement of the new site will subside and it’ll be fine. Not like it’s actually failing, it was just a bit laggy.

    Before and after I made the mistake of shaving my head! 😂

    New site is better, though still quite slow. Maybe backend infrastructure needs upped.

    Hi folks. My band have recorded a new song and looking for recommendations on places that will listen/review etc? Also, potential avenues for radio. our last single got played on R1 introducing rock which was nice. But just looking at other avenues! We are hardcore/metal, or cyber metal as someone called us. ta!

    Reminder that I’m open to sensible offers and down in Gretna this weekend to make life easier to meet.

    Enough that I defended myself with the plastic fork. Alas I was 16 and now I have realised that no chip and no cheese is worth dying for. Lest none that I’ve found yet.😂

    Always thought it was rougher than a badgers proverbial! Market street is the only place I’ve been threatened with a knife tbf. All for my chips and cheese. 😂

    My shoulder winced in pain at this picture.

    I have no need for a 3D printer.. but I really want one! tbh, I just want one to print a proper cup holder for my car!
