  1. NSBD (New Skirting Board Day). 6 lengths delivered, and I've just realised quite how long 4.4 metres is... O.o 

  2. NCD! barefaced Six10 just delivered, pics to follow when I get chance to unbox (otherwise it clearly didn't happen)

     

    Really need my orange cabs to sell now :)

  3. It is with great sadness that I write this post, but my beloved Shaun died of a heart attack at the end of July, he was only 64. He loved being a member of Basschat and had forged some good friendships with fellow bass players. He will be sadly missed and I miss hearing him play bass from him room. Thank you for the years of joy you gave him. Louise (his wife)

      @SpondonBassedyes we did. Turned out the lump was just one of several tumours.

  9. After loving the album since I was a kid, I've had to finally learn Diamonds On The Souls Of Her Feet for a first dance. Such a banger!

  12. Anyone got a Radial JDI they want to sell? 

  13. Well, that's a first for me: being offered money NOT to play a gig!

  14. Still on the hunt for a Vanderkley 112mnt cab...anyone??

  15. Went swimming Monday night, now my ear is blocked, gyarrgh!

  16. There's a first. We walked away from a gig without playing a note as the pub thought we had too many amps (we are a 5 piece) and our amps looked "too loud". We hadn't even plugged in or fully set up. When they asked us to lose a band member or play after 10pm when their restaurant was closed, we packed our gear and left. Lord Raglan in Wokingham, for the record. My advice: never accept a gig there

      Holy crap. You were doing them a favour and they treated you like that? What an absolute cunch of bunts.

  18. Have just become hopelessly carried away in the Maruszczyk bass configurator... oh well, there goes the morning...

  19. Looking forward to some shows next week. Don't suppose anyone has a spare Vanderkley 112mnt they want to offload? 😎

      I've got to go to Italy again next year, for my stepson's wedding... got to say I am really really tempted to drive, via the ferry. I know it's a hell of a long way, but I think it'd be nice. Spread it over three days or so, take a leisurely route maybe. A whole load better than flying, that's for certain.

      Apparently it's a bit better than it was there, still big queues and so on. At the start of the month when I was supposed to fly home with them via Schipohol, the situation at Schip was so bad that they cancelled the flight from Bologna just as we were about to board, and then basically abandoned us there. No food, no accommodation, nothing. Told us to call their customer service line (which was shut) and make our own way home (which we did). The next morning, when we'd already got as far as Paris, I had an email from them offering us 'alternative' flights home from Bologna departing three days later.

      And now, to put the tin lid on it, they are refusing us any compensation for our extra expense in getting home. 

      So my comment is mainly borne out of total dissatisfaction and anger with KLM's laughable service.

      Aww @Doodman, this is making me jealous. I'd love a "Sally's little sister" of my own... maybe a 32" headless 5 string, with the same type of pickups and guts as Mark's Zoot Wal-alike...
