  1. Spent the time to set this up in E Standard, with neck straight and action low, but very easy to set up in lower tunings (previously had it in Eb). Will leave it up for a couple weeks longer and then I'm going to take the cellophane off and start using it.
  2. Shocked and saddened to read this. One of the regulars probably since I joined in 2008 or whatever. Only communicated through PM but a gentleman every time - Will certainly be remembered alongside the core members that have passed. Thank you and RIP.
  3. Same outfit that built the Epiphone Jack Casady, but their own top of the range spec...
  4. My US Musicman Sterling had dead spots, so look out for those.
  5. He ^ eats quorn because he swoons and the sight of blood. Frank Spencer plays a short scale 5er... "Mmm Betty! Betty!! Look at me. I'm doing it, I'm really doing it."
  6. And then you drop it and run away like Raheem Sterling
  7. ...After he got the long scale thumb. During the short scale era, he got his ass kicked and called Jack 'The Spruce' on account of all the spring cleaning he did - It's in his autobiography.
  8. Recent research showed that if you play short scale basses, you're more likely to endure some testicle shrinkage and adopt the name 'Nancy'. I can't recall the source.
  9. I'm also 6ft and I find the string tension and feel of a 34" scale, miles better than anything short scale. I've owned short scales for a while before and I just find them 'cramped'.
  10. They'd make an absolute killing if they could price properly.
  11. Will include hand signed sketch of the band, British Lion, including Steve Harris' autograph. https://i.imgur.com/kNqpnCh.jpg
  12. I have a Carvin Icon 4 and a Carvin SB5000. My two main basses for modern and vintage tones. Both are flawless instruments.
  13. Thank you - A shame they didn't make more as they really hit their stride with semis in the early 2010s. Discontinued and no longer export etc. The 5 ply neck and roller/stop tail bridge is a very sensible detour from original designs.
  14. Did anyone manage to get an encore out of British Lion? I would have loved for him to play the ides of March or something from UFO. Didn't hang around afterwards, but certainly would have done to get a photo with him.
