My wonderful wife has very few flaws. but one thing I cannot accept is the relentless use of voice notes instead of text messages by her and her mates, and colleagues. On WhatsApp they press and hold the mic icon and witter on about whatever, so an inordinate amount of my life is spent listening to... ”well, she came round and I was like - what you doing here at this time, and I was like...” and ”are we doing week 3 of Macbeth with year eleven from Tuesday or Wednesday because I’ve not got the PowerPoint ready yet” It does my head in. So on another thread I posted some music. I’d already sent it to a select few - now @Cuzzie is someone who I respect massively and I really appreciate his enthusiasm and healthy constructive criticism... Today was different, he replied with...A VOICE NOTE. Not one for swearing or violence... here’s how I replied

“So much so...the sadowsky should be sold...” hahaha

Saturday morning wit a brew Strugglr .m4a

There are about 5 or 6 legitimate fender P’s on my list.

That’s really nice, sort of half New Order, some Tears for Fears and some Depeche Mode. I also hear a bit of Gordon Gano in the vocals. Cool.

Much darker than burgundy mist. Gibson do a thing called Heather Poly Mist which is more like fender burgundy mist

With a batwing, I would’ve bought one

I’m ordering some Dunlop finish restorer or meguirs swirl and haze remover - also going to make the ding near the controls more invisible.

Having a moment. I sit and think what 20 years means. Means a lot, cannot believe how much has changed.

8lbs on the nose: woo.

Really? colour is nice. chrome pickups are cool. it’s a bass. theres 3

He’s retired now. Doubt the new lot give a significant shite. Hence all the new models and seemingly increased output. Imagine that.

This is better to be fair

Cor. That’s lush...😉

Olympic is cream, Arctic is a bit less so.

I’ll wait. 😏

My thoughts exactly

Here’s a quirk. I put a fresh battery in... look at this An “A” etched into the backplate.

He’s really handy - particularly if you love Japanese gear. Absolutely spot on guy. And it was packed well enough to survive a fall from an aeroplane. Heads up guys - he’s called Denis and he’s absolutely sound. https://reverb.com/shop/denniss-gear-bazaar-167?utm_source=rev-ios-app&utm_medium=ios-share&utm_campaign=shop&utm_content=929219

After TWENTY years...

As a point, the new rug irks me. but...I let her get the rug to soften the new Bass arrival...

It’s top quality - like the Godlyke I sold to @bassfan (they’re deffo from the same factory - Deviser/Bacchus) playability is great too now the mange is off it... it’s had a life though - for sure. Swirly 🙄 One of the switches may need cleaning out as a bit intermittent. But it’s magic. May tweak the setup as I did it all in haste.

Done in a massive rush, but knew you’d ask... Tune.m4a

Hmm, I need a buffing wheel. Dirty... Well, it’s been 20 years... And now I’m going to set the bugger up. bit of a klonk on the fingerboard at fret 1. Anyhow, it’s really well put together.
