Excellent stuff!... thanks for that, he's always been a favourite of mine ever since that album with Gary Newman... a particularly sh*te & unfinished sounding album, but with the exciting & creative bass parts of Pino, it becomes very listenable!

[b]This: [/b] Arrived today as expected.... & exactly as described... I'm well chuffed! Keith is a great guy to deal with, says it how it is & obviously had looked after this bass ...it's immaculate! (...as described) It was well packed &[i] bomb proof[/i] to the whims of 'Parcel Farce' too....

Since the last time I was in this thread I've changed me cabs..... So here's me tackle now....... Wish I had the matching shoes & earrings though!

[quote name='Dr.Dave' post='342696' date='Dec 2 2008, 10:01 AM']That's not gay - it just likes pushing the hoover about a bit !!! Now THIS is a real lifter of gentlemans shirts!!!!!! [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=24037&hl=fettled+fender"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=...=fettled+fender[/url] I came in from work yesterday and it had a quiche in the oven !![/quote] .....

+1 for Percy Jones & Mick Karn!.... :brow: That Jaco solo from Shadows & Light didn't make it to the album (...so that says something) That album was my 1st introduction to Jaco's playing & it blew me away, I still think some of his best work was when he was being the bass player for Joni... more 'playing for the song' & less w@nking if you get me.....

My daughter had a nickel allergy... piercings, belt buckles even coins would set off the most horrendous rashes.. after doing all the 'suppressant creams' we eventually got her a referral to the Homoeopathic hospital in Bristol.. where after one lengthy consultation, she was prescribed some little tablets & a powder.... In a few days it started to clear up, until it completely vanished!..... We were amazed! Over the next few years the rashes came back a couple of times.. We phoned the Hospital up & they sent us some 'top up' powder by post.... Again it did the trick... These days she doesn't have a problem with it at all.. I don't know what the stuff was & it may be that it wouldn't work the same for other people... but the principle of homoeopathic treatment is to stimulate the bodies natural defences by introducing minute amounts of the very thing that causes the reaction... Rather than just suppressing the symptoms...... It certainly worked for us...

...an interesting thread indeed!... I can relate to the 'light' & 'dark' sides of this [i]business they call show[/i] As a kid, I could never imagine me dealing with the 9 - 5 game, it just wouldn't suit me... sounded like a prison sentence! ...so I avoided it. For the last 30 years my income has mainly always come from 'music related diseases' ...Bands, teaching, recordings etc.. consequently I have had times of poverty & also [i]relative[/i] wealth ... I've bought up 2 kids (..for several years as a single parent) It has often been very tough making ends meet... but it [i][b]definitely[/b][/i] has been an adventure!.... I have no pension! [i]I'll be 48 in march 09[/i] I've just got back from playing a week in Cyprus with a funk/soul covers band, to find a royalty report for $303.17 for my share in a Sample CD that was recorded over 6 years ago on the door mat.... that gives me a glow! it's not big ([i]or clever![/i]).... but it's my life... & for the most part, I enjoy it... I don't think I could do anything else.....

[quote name='Ray' post='318617' date='Oct 30 2008, 07:14 PM']Here's mine. Passive bass through a quality rig. No effects. Simple but effective. [/quote] Sweet!...... is that the set up you used on 'The Fantastics' myspace tunes?

I think this is the 3rd rig I've posted in this thread!! ...I hope this is it for a while!.... I think so.... it's sounding Phat & it's been tickling my bass bone these last few weeks!.....

Just heard back from Roqsolid..... £30.50 each!.... bargin! ordering 2 immediately! Thanks for that BC-ers appreciate it!....

Thanks for the suggestions so far.... have sent the dimensions to Roqsolid, not heard back yet... also Bass Merchant has PM'ed me....

I've recently acquired 2 Aguilar GS 112's & want to get covers for them.... Thought this would be a simple task really!... but after wasting a slice of my life, trawling the net, going round in circles... I'm getting a bit fed up with it all! The sites where you can get the actual Aguilar covers from are obviously all American & it seems $99 each is pretty standard across the board... but I hate the way they assume everyone lives in the states & their bloody forms are impossible to fill out without a zip code etc!... they're also loaded with hidden shipping charges.... 'Music 123' has a good deal, but I can't even find an email address on their site, to ask if they ship to the UK... 'Silverstone' is a UK company but although they claim to make to order, GS 112 seems impossible to get a quote for... & they have union jacks on everything... which I don't really want! ... I'm resigned to the fact that they wont be cheap but I don't really want to pay over £100 for them... [b]Has anyone got any suggestions?[/b]
