  1. Umm, how about in the middle of the ramp? or is the logo textured/embossed, because that might feel weird on the fingers if you're playing over it. I like the idea of it being in the tuner recess, but it might look a bit squashed/busy Si
  2. I beg your pardon! My bad I'm sure i saw a post that you made saying you were a teenager lol, i should have my facts straight next time! :-D Yeah, it was that issue alright. Maybe i can scan it and send you the article Si
  3. Right so who's tonight?? (18th). I might be going on my own (various people lamed out) So gimme a shout! Probably going into London about 11am ish and having a mooch around the various bass shops/denmark street I'll be at the gig in a black, over-sized beanie and a 'Pimp That Snack' t-shirt! :-D Si p.s. Obviously I'll be wearing trousers as well, but they're fairly nondescript
  4. But then he was probably doing it before you were born lol I think i saw it in his Bass Player mag interview a couple of years ago Si
  5. Hey there! If the Stingray isn't gone, or falls through, then i might have a friend whos interested! Funnily enough he's also in Luton Si
  6. Isn't that the technique that Ryan Martinie uses? He said he picked it up after watching his dad play classical guitar Si
  7. Who was the luthier? Where/who does he work for? Cheers Si
  8. Doesn't sound to boomy to me, although sounds like you've panned the guitar hard right, and the bass hard left, try putting them closer to the middle to get a rounder mix!? Umm, and also the guitar sounds out of tune!? Cool man, keep it coming! Si

  10. It also looks like he's sold a few parts actually FROM the mustang already Si
  11. Agreed Good luck with the sale though, it looks great! Si
  12. [quote name='endorka' post='32894' date='Jul 17 2007, 10:08 AM']You'll be fine, the hardest thing is remembering where you were the day before. Jennifer[/quote] +1 Like you wouldn't believe!!! Toured for a month this past May, played nearly everynight, 26 gigs or something. My fingers were fine, no problems at all but ask me where i'd played the night before and i wouldn't have had a clue! lol I don't get problems with my fretting fingers, sometimes i have slight issues with my right hand fingers but thats not because of the roundwounds, its because a couple of the polepieces on my Jazz bass are a bit sharp, lucky my touring basses were fitted with Barts! Si
  13. By this i can tell that your rig is mostly made up of 8" and 10" drivers Si
  14. If you also look at his feedback, he also seems to have sold a few of the bits from the '76, like the Neck plate etc So either all the bits on this Mustang aren't original, or he somehow has two '76 Mustangs Si

  16. Anything smaller bodied, like the Corvette Josh took off of me. Sounded and played brilliantly, but just kinda felt like a toy in size, especially when sat down. Considering my other basses are a Stingray and 2 Jazz's, i definitely lean towards the slightly larger bodied instruments. Having said that, Ricken'knackers' have never visually or sonically 'fit' with me, i don't understand them lol Si p.s. Rodders: Try a few, my USA Standard jazz is lovely sounding and feeling, but i to have played some real dogs. Quite often its down to the shop letting them deteriorate, especially if they have air-con, mashes up the necks
  17. Alright all, as you will know if you follow my gig list........ ....FSOF are playing at the Hay Music Festival tonight Gates are at 6:00pm, first band at 7:00pm with us playing at 8:30pm, 3 bands in total.

  18. Theres a few guys. Big me up :-D Cheers all Si
  19. What a really nice example! To many strings for me I saw a 4 in perfect nick go for £895 from a shop on Ebay, but that was a newer model (2000's) I reckon, rough estimate £650ish !? Good luck Si

  22. My E2 is still a Headrush ..... in many ways......its a Headrush E2 :-D Si
  23. Ah the epitome of good taste! Si
  24. Just made a couple of small edits to the above if you wanna read it again quickly Good luck Si
  25. If you're on the covers circuit, a lot of the chain pubs and larger places will only book through agents, and its strictly covers. Obviously for pubs booking entertainment themselves its a different ballgame, so ask them directly. With regards to original music, most venues will either have inhouse promotions, or will have a number of promoters in the area that put events on there. So take the Barfly in Camden for example, as far as i know, it (or any barflys) doesn't have inhouse promotions, they deal with external promoters. One example who put nights on at the Camden Barfly is 'KBY Rocks', affiliated with Rocksound magazine. I've played a loada gigs with them, and they're great. Note that this is Original Music only!! Just look up promotion companies on Myspace!!! Si p.s. oh and usually, i would suggest that all promoters of live entertainment will want to hear a recording of you, unless perhaps if you get recommended by someone else, but even then it wouldn't surprise me if they asked for a recording
