  1. I've just been onto Strings Direct's site and luckily for me, the Elixir set I wanted -- four string set, 45-105 steel -- were the only ones showing as in stock. I really hope whatever import issues there are get sorted soon.
  2. Waterloo Sunset - the Kinks
  3. That disappointing moment when a name bassist whom you befriended and greatly admired chooses to belittle you on Farcebook when you take issue with their alarmist vaxx-skeptic views.

    Closing that door with a heavy heart.

  12. Might I also add: Do it RIGHT NOW now: https://www.helpmusicians.org.uk/health-welfare/musicians-hearing-health-scheme Do it RIGHT NOW now: https://www.helpmusicians.org.uk/health-welfare/musicians-hearing-health-scheme Do it RIGHT NOW now: https://www.helpmusicians.org.uk/health-welfare/musicians-hearing-health-scheme Do it RIGHT NOW now: https://www.helpmusicians.org.uk/health-welfare/musicians-hearing-health-scheme It says "If you’re over the age of 18 and earn the majority of your income through music"; I don't, however I was able to demonstrate that both my bands are busy and have a large following, and this seemed to be enough for me to qualify. 40 quid for excellent custom fitted plugs, what a total bargain.
  13. You are Dave Swift and I claim my five pounds.
  14. @GuyRhas this gone?
  15. 36, Rich West How come my silhouette makes me look like a huge massive fat bastid? Correction, a huger massiver fatter bastid?

    Weight

    Just out of idle curiosity, I've just filled a bored moment by weighing my working basses: Ibanez BTB six - 10lbs 6oz Sire V7 - 10 3 P bitsa - 10 3 Wal Pro 2E - 10 2 ska Jazz - 10 1 Shuker - 9 7 Thunder 1A - 9 7 fretless Ray - 8 14 No surprise that the biggest bass is the heaviest, but a couple of surprises. The T1A feels far heavier on a strap than it is, and the Shuker feels lighter. Perhaps it's to do with the balance? The Shuke is perfect, while the T1A neckdives like a bastid.
  21. Oh my dear god that is stunning. Quick, nurse, my pills...
