  1. They do look tempting don't they ? There is this thread from a few years ago, for a 5-string though. HTH
  2. Never had a formal lesson, but the best informal one was from my Mum, and had nowt to do with music. "Turn up on time and be nice." It's my ability to do both that has got me in more bands than my musical acumen IMHO.
  3. Anyone know where's the best place to buy DemonFX stuff in the UK? Affordaboard seem to have been very light on stock for a while.
  4. Played The Beehive, Bow, London for the second time this year. There was a slight 'command performance' vibe as the singer's folks very visiting from Mexico and were in attendance. Bit of a strange vibe between the drummer and guitarist before the gig, but they've just started to share a house so maybe there's been some domestic strife going on behind the scenes Good gig, we all played well and more there than we expected, which was nice as the place was empty when we arrived. Slight gripe that our drummer needs to speed up his setting up as both in soundcheck and just before we started as he was fiddling for ages...slightly embarrassingly slow when we took the stage tbh. Hey ho. I got a couple of nice bass props from punters which was very nice as it's not often that happens. Yay ! Had a lovely time chatting to the singer's parents (via Mrs. Singer as shared language was an issue) after the gig before taking a slightly piddly Mrs. Pook home who brought a work buddy along and got quite into her cups over the evening No pics to hand, sadly.
  5. That lack of forearm contour is going to chafe. You don't want chafing - nobody wants chafing.
  6. Pretty sure when I did some work on my Starfire, which was years ago (bass now long gone), eveything went through the f-holes. Not sure about the tubing though....try Ebay or your preferred online retailer ? HTH
  7. I came across this stroke of genius - using what looks like surgical tubing to hold onto the pots, which makes swift work of getting them through the holes...wish I'd seen this before !
  8. 43mm nut width ? Damn your eyes Harley Benton, damn your eyes !
  9. Mrs. Pook could...but you'd hope so, really Flea Lemmy John Taylor 'Macca' Alex James Kim Deal Sting Mark King 'off of Level 42' Carol Kaye Jaco Pastorius
