  1. Slight tangent, but the novel, Accordion Crimes by E Annie Proulx is a great read, demonstrating the way the accordion intertwines through many emigrant musical styles in the US. Well worth a read for any literary fans.
  2. Anything Nash can do Fodera can do better...
  3. I'll have a P please Bob.
  4. This also ties in with the heavier gauge going through slots for a lighter gauge.
  5. Just had to add this to the Basschat Great Quotes thread!
  6. Used to play two smaller parks in East Sussex - both quite high end (by holiday park standards) and the band used to get about £100 over the local pub rate, so about £350 from memory. This was 15 years ago.
  7. https://www.basschat.co.uk/topic/277468-bcers-prepared-to-help-fix-a-bass/
  8. Schoolboy error Dave - no indication on the site as to your whereabouts.
  9. A bit of this, but also, a lot of older artists have absolutely no say on how their work gets used, whereas more recent signings may well have held on to more control.
  10. The best cuisine poll couldn't have included any post-war British votes!!
  11. The other big thing in ads for a few years now, and has created a few huge hits along the way, is the 'acoustifying' of old songs. Latest dirge is the Pandora advert.
  12. There seems to be a lot of 'vintage' references throughout advertising at the moment - fashions, cars, skateboards. Are people finding it hard to look ahead with positivity, so advertising cleverly let's them look back to perceived better times?
  13. Looks like they incorporated the pickups into their guitar website: https://www.eternal-guitars.com/copy-of-p90
  14. Not usually pictures, but yes, often see colours elsewhere and think they would be great for a bass. That is a fabulous one you have chosen!
  15. Flat Foot Floogie- Slim Galliard
  16. Everlasting Love - The Love Affair
  17. Wunjo is a good call. Reasonable price to you as they can sell to their customer base for more than we can get on private sales. Also hear good things about Bass Bros.
  18. +1
  19. Now that's just showing off 😎 Fabulous work, I am full of admiration.
  20. Talking In Your Sleep - Crystal Gale
  21. I know we have already had the light-hearted comments about playing above the 12th fret, but I'm really curious as to the exercise you are playing that needs your pinkie on the E string all the way up there. Do you have a link or screenshot?
  22. @honza992 that pinstripe on the fretboard is exquisite.
  23. Not going to be the easiest of sales as Godin are a great, but not common brand. If you haven't already, you should get around all the NW London Cash Converters and alert them. Good luck with recovering it.
  24. Which is why it is infuriating that the subject has been relegated within education for the past 20+ years. Not only is music important in its own right but there is strong evidence that it also helps in the study of other subjects.
  25. The absolute abomination that was Alexandra Burke's version of Hallelujah. Oh the delicious irony of the line "but you don't really care for music do you".
