  1. Very tempting and local too....I don't need another valve amp!
  2. Uncle Jack, the original and best live jukebox band, * are looking for a replacement bass player following me handing in my notice. They are a great bunch of friendly guys with no egos in the band, they play regularly around 2 gigs per month (sometimes 3) across Wiltshire, Hampshire & Dorset and they cover loads of popular covers across the years. Presented in a jukebox format, whereby the punters choose what the band play, it’s a great gig that remains fresh and is updated regularly. I’ve attached a sample jukebox that I had to hand, there’s been some additions and deletions to the list since then, if you fancy it please PM me and I’ll pass on the contact details😊👍🏻 The website: http://unclejackweb.co.uk/index.html Sample Jukebox Jukebox July '22.docx
  3. @Paddy777 are you still interested? I’ve PM’d you but no reply as yet - let me know asap as @Andy_L is waiting patiently 😊👍🏻
  4. What sound are you trying to achieve? Any examples?
  5. Some really good advice on this thread, when I started playing I always used a pick, then I joined a blues band and the aggressive tones produced weren’t appropriate and the band leader asked me to play fingerstyle, it seemed to put me back massively when I tried at first, but as others have said, for me the only way to get it was to practice over and over, slowly at first, crossing strings is really important and alternating between index and middle fingers, nowadays my right hand technique takes care of itself and I don’t even think about it. Also. I tend to anchor my thumb on top of the pick up cover, I find having an anchor point really helped me get a feel for what I wanted to achieve and was probably the most important thing to building up speed. Be patient, it will happen, don’t give up - it’s totally worth persevering with😊👍🏻
  6. Future Impact V1, has had updates, nice condition, no box, £200 plus postage. Origin Effects Cali 76 compressor, unmarked, barely used, original box included, £200 plus postage. (Now Sold) Sonic Research Turbo Tuner, near mint, original box included, £90 plus postage. Peterson Strobostomp HD, near mint, unboxed £90 plus postage. (Now Sold) ZVEX Mastotron, nice condition, unboxed, £85 plus postage. Subdecay Echobox, nice condition, £120 plus postage. Fuzzrocious Demon, seems like this was forever on my board until I finally found a Tech 21 Leeds pedal, good condition, some minor cosmetic chips but good condition, for reasons of full disclosure the power socket feels a little loose, but works fine - I had it on good authority that replacing the power socket wouldn’t be too onerous or costly, hence price of £85 plus postage. I also have a well used Dunlop Crybaby 105Q, it’s at my studio, well used for around 20 years or so, still works fine but I landed a Geezer Butler Wah and prefer that tbh. Can take photos on Monday if anyone interested, £50 plus postage.
  7. We’ve got 21 gigs booked for Uncle Jack - there may be another odd one out two that make their way in, but I’m also looking to restart the other band, Sarum’s Lot, with a new guitarist following the recent passing of ours - he wanted us to carry on so it seems the right thing to do. Last year I did 44 gigs, 21 isn’t enough for me, can’t stand Saturday night TV.
  8. La Villa Strangiato is another one I find tricky!
  9. I've never tried on a short scale - but that makes sense to me! 🙂
