  1. Got any gigs coming up?🤔 Don't do it. Really not that important in the grand scheme of things, and the evidence for the benefit of social distancing really can't be ignored.
  2. What, she wants to part the 16 year old out?
  3. Seeing lots of music teachers talking about Zoom for online lessons - might be worth looking at for rehearsing.
  4. Why are all these coronavirus threads appearing in General Discussion? Has it suddenly become music related? Grump over.

      Great response! I See they are getting moved/merged/locked now thankfully.

      Just assumed it was spreading

      In before the Lockdown.

  5. Love the way Ernest and Monty straddled Jazz and Reggae so naturally.
  6. Not very contemporary, but not ancient and muffled - the wonderful Ernest Ranglin with Sly & Robbie. Beautiful stuff.
  7. OK, your eyesight/computer resolution is far better than mine 😎
  8. I had a Japanese Jazz guitar back in the 1970s which had been made with no name on the headstock. Cracking Gibson Barney Kessel copy.
  9. So, singer, guitarist has called it a day on my main current project. Had been sniffing around for something in addition to this, but now need a new gig! Great timing 😕
  10. Don't think Slam Stewart has put in an appearance yet.
  11. Been a very long week, but it sounded wonderful as I kept falling in and out of conciousness on the sofa! iPlayer later.
  12. Whoops, epic thread derail, but at least we're still discussing setts...
  13. I do love a little bit of drunks falling about towards the end of a gig, but then perhaps I haven't seen it too bad. Wildlife is lovely but all I've been seeing is a lot of roadkill badgers 😥
  14. Had the pleasure/misfortune of releasing this compliation way back when!
  15. At the time? When did it change (and why?) 😏
  16. I had three options as to why you were asking about this. So glad it is this one as the others were 'he's a bit dense' or worse, 'this is some sort of scam, but can't work out what or how' 👁️👁️👓 😀
  17. I just tried to get a quote to see what the insurance was. A standard bass shape and weight UK delivery was £17.62 before insurance, and without putting all details in I couldn't get the insurance price. Not a good start...
  18. Oh, and the smudges look like the right colour for the number too!
  19. I think that was a number once. Curious as to why it has been removed. That's where it should be.
  20. You say no serial, but what is under the Made in Japan wording?
  21. I'd forgotten an absolute cracker - Skunk Anansie at the Pinnacle Records sales conference, in the Bierkellar bar at the Coppid Beech Hotel, Bracknell. The album hadn't been released, and their label put them on for the Pinnacle's (distributor) sales staff, retail buyers, and us other lucky labels. I watched about a metre away from Skin in a crowded but tiny room. Amazing show.
  22. You may struggle for an inexpensive 5 string P pickup.
  23. Saw a just signed Pogues (along with The Men They Couldn't Hang) opening for Elvis Costello at the Hammersmith Palais. Think there were more fans for the two openers than for Costello that night.
  24. Another great source of ethical wood supply has previously been demonstrated by @Jabba_the_gut in this build diary!
  25. Love this Peterbuilt Dynamite Bass: https://images.app.goo.gl/yDF8NYfaHL7qr68P9
