Did they only do stuff that the original line-up released?

Any on-stage references to any falling-outs etc?

And how was it in general?

All the first album and half of the second

They didn’t go over the falling out. Just motored through the set. Not a lot of banter.  Very good natured gig. Loved it

Tell us how it went!!!

Absolutely Fantastic! Skids we’re great too.

Worth waiting 45 years for.

After years of big 1.0mm Clayton Triangles I’ve switched to green Dunlop 0.88 standard jobbies. Can’t say my playing has improved but they feel more comfortable. I don’t like finger style playing. Feels weird. So the right pick is important.

My cousin Gary taught me the rudiments of playing on his 40/40 in 1978.
He also had the equivalent 30/30 guitar he used in his pub band. Both were in natural finish.

I’ve always had a soft spot for Haymans and Shergolds. Bought a black Marathon in ‘79 as my first ‘proper’ bass.

The Damned at Hammy Odeon on Friday

Cracking review in this months Electronic Sound magazine.

We’ve just released all the stuff so far on one album on bandcamp. 
 

New Track

Trust no body

New track up. B Movie Hammer Horror Electrpop

As a spotty punk Herbert in the late 70s I like everyone else wanted a Precision.

A fairly low output pickup, fresh Rotosound cheese graters, a big triangular pick and a trebly clapped out amp on the edge.

That should do it. 

Now I’m a committed Fenlander. Any recommendations in the Spalding - Kings Lynn vicinity?

Wow, that totally changes the look. Might look at one of those for mine too.

Being of a somewhat lazy disposition today, any chance of a product link @Low End Bee?

Thanks - will investigate, although those pickups look a lot bigger than the ones on the classic vibe, or maybe it is an optical illusion

 

I’m not sure. I think the plate is CIJ size so should fit

I put flats on it yesterday. Considering I don't play 4 string basses, and I don't like flats, I am enjoying this a surprisingly large amount, its really good (a bit buzzy in my living room) although the pickup is a bit microphonic.

So where can you get a perloid scratchplate for this? I have looked around, can't find anything.

I could just get the material and make something, but it would probably be bad if I did.

I know there are custom places, but it seems that this would be a normal thing?

I got a scratch plate for the JMJ from AxesRus

Why the new bridge?

I would say it's a sensible upgrade. Every time I've restrung a bass fitted with a Gibson 3 pointer it's exploded bits of saddle everywhere.

New electro power pop tribute to suburban swingers out now. Keys in the bowl You know the procedure...

New track up called Waltzer. 

Just an update on the Burns. Stuck a new set of D'Addario Bass VI strings on it which I'd recommend. Bit more of everything with them. Used on this track. Works well in electro pop!

Here you go... 

The digital 12" mix of Neil Armstrong is out today.
