  1. three chords, wife gone & a dead dog.
  2. I think he works at the same place in Ukraine as this lass: https://www.youtube.com/@TanyaShpachuk
  3. this may have been the case when the neck was made, but if you fully slacken off the truss rod any time afterwards, then it may have picked up a bow one way or the other. the idea of the notched straightedges is that you get the fingerboard straight by adjusting the truss rod & only then level the frets. if you try to level the frets without the wood straight then you'll end up grinding down the frets either in the middle or at the two ends unnecessarily & probably introduce other issues.
  4. are they white and gold or blue and black? either way, they're foul. & wtf is going on with that Tele scratchplate?

  6. really enjoyed that - a lot of the tunes of my youth,and, to be fair, my present too. the "goffolk" crossover works very well.
  7. I have several, from someone's YoB, just not from mine.
  8. half the people will always be below-averagely educated though.
  9. Aus/NZ call it "Tall Poppy Syndrome": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tall_poppy_syndrome
  10. I just bought two pedals from @Schlippy - they arrived promptly, well packaged & do what it says on the tin. many thanks Ralph 👍
  11. badger

    New EHX pedal

    My neighbour knocked on my door at 2:30am...Can you believe that, 2:30am!? Fortunately I was still up playing my bagpipes
  12. if the body's not flat-topped - making the saddles considerably higher than the body end of the fretboard - then the pocket will be routed sloped slightly backwards to compensate. standard practise on Les Pauls & similar (glued-in neck on LPs of course, but you get the idea).
  13. was it a real person or AI/chatbot though? the only thing I can think is that they want a VAT number so they know *not* to charge you VAT on fees if you have one. if you don't have one then they will need to charge you. I suspect something's being lost in translation between 'mercan & English.
  14. I was watching the "five watt world" episode on the Stingray on YT earlier & they said that SUB stands for"Sports Utility Bass" & I really hope that's true.
  15. many thanks Ralph - my feedback thread is https://www.basschat.co.uk/topic/490563-feedback-for-badger/
  16. many thanks @silverfoxnik, that's most generous of you, much appreciated. 👍 I hope you've been able to put the proceeds towards something nice for yourself. 😁 thanks again Andy
  17. I bought a hard case from @EliasMooseblaster. great item & a nice chap. he has a very friendly cat too. 🙂 many thanks Ralph 👍
  18. I bought an Ampeg preamp pedal (possibly formerly cetera's, judging from a couple of posts back lol). no bother, quick dispatch, item well packaged & as described. a nice chap to deal with - thanks Nik 👍 Andy
  19. I wouldn't chance it - those may turn out to be the actual colours.
