  1. mild personal opinion on the music, not the man himself "you're stomping on his grave!"
  2. I was involved in a several-cornered debate on Farcebook the other day on the subject of musicians' visas and free movement in the EU and so on. One of the participants in the exchange said, and I quote, "frankly, the less music the better". I was astounded, I had to ask him if he was serious. He was. Apparently he doesn't mind anyone else listening to it personally (oooh, that's nice of him!) but he hates "being assaulted by it". I'm still having trouble wrapping my head around such a view. His world wouldn't be worth living in.
  3. Agreed, that's what's so wonderful about music. Well, one of the things. It talks to us on a personal level, and it says something different to each of us.
  4. And a million miles from anything that has happened on this thread.
  5. "Stomp on their grave" just gave me a proper chuckle.
  6. If I had 4.5 large spare I would certainly pay it for that, especially as it comes with the spare neck. Given what I've seen Wal fivers going for lately, and the fact that they are very much investments these days, that strikes me as a bit of a bargain TBH.
  7. Our Lips Are Sealed - Go-Go's
  8. This will probably get me tarred, feathered and drummed out of the Brownies... ...but... ...I've heard a fair bit of Cliff Burton's playing, but nothing that has ever stood out to me as particularly special. It's all a bit "yeah, so what?". My flameproof pants await.
  9. Like a Virgin - Madge
  10. With that video, he should change the name of the song to "Feathery Bástard Chip Thieves"
  11. Come Fly with Me - Frank Sinatra
  12. Maybe, Maybe Not - Mindy McCready
  13. Stay With Me till Dawn - Judie Tzuke
  14. Child of the Universe - Barclay James Harvest
  15. I still live in hope of a P3 model. Can't see it happening somehow, which is a shame really.

    Unfortunately not, I've sold them on so I can't weigh them.
  17. Knights of the Jaguar - DJ Rolando

    These https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/224343815825 They are not a direct replacement, for each tuner you have to drill one new screwhole and fill the four old ones. But it's not a big deal, and more than worthwhile. This is how mine ended up.
  19. TBH if you'd asked me how much it weighed, I'd have said rather more than 155lbs. When you consider an SVT810 weighs 165 (or 140, depending on who you believe!), that's actually quite a lightweight. It must sound a bit like god clearing his throat.
  20. This is me, almost word for word.
  21. Clocks Go Forward - Mark King
  22. Trains and Boats and Planes - Burt Bacharach and Hal David
  23. If Silvia wants to comment on this, we should lett'er.
  24. Do you rely on a good interference-fit to keep the ferrules in place, or do you glue them in?
  25. Oh yes, I'd definitely take either, but I've always liked LPB and I have to say that looks particularly good. I certainly wouldn't feel short-changed with the natural one.
