  1. Past hour
  2. Spend the extra 500 quid and get the Passion with the graphite neck. Oh, Lord that is gorgeous!
  3. Today
  4. I got over excited.....
  5. apart from my new toy, a Kramer 450b. I think it is made from wood effect stone!
  6. I wouldn't have thought that a balance of trade deficit of $302, or somewhere under 300 quid, would be worth bothering about.
  7. I believe that the third-termists are relying on a reading of the 12th Amendment which needs to be done with very narrowed eyes and your head on one side. "But no person constitutionally ineligible to the office of President shall be eligible to that of Vice-President of the United States." AIUI, they're saying that he couldn't be elected to the presidency a third time but that doesn't make him constitutionally ineligible to be VP because the 12th Amendment doesn't mention elections. There is another route, I think (not certain). Succession goes from president to vice-president to speaker of the House of Representatives. The Constitution does not explicitly require the speaker to be an incumbent member of the House of Representatives. So Trump could become Speaker and then have the President and Vice-president stand down (or be visited by one of Putin's friends with a cup of tea and invitation to see the lovely view from up here).
  8. Running any sort of physical run-of-the-mill shop, never mind a musical instrument shop, these days seems highly risky to me. You really do have to present a good reason why your potential punters shouldn’t just shop on Amazon/Thomann/insert online behemoth of choice here. I spent three years living in Berlin recently - somewhere you might imagine as the very archetype of a place that would need a decent generalist music store to support the many and varied creative musicians living in the city. And when I was there it had one: Just Music. Four or five floors of everything you and your band might need. Staffed by the usual mixture of people who made you feel you were wasting their time and people who genuinely felt like they wanted you to succeed. I bought a lot of strings there, though never an instrument. And I was really sad to hear that they’d gone under a few months after we left the city. Read the message on their website: https://justmusic.de For those that don’t speak German, it essentially says, ‘we tried, but you didn’t spend enough money here instead on with the big online sellers’. They’re not blaming us for that, just pointing out how it is. And so it goes.
  9. Yesterday
  10. Thanks @PriZeMaN, but still too heavy for my taste. GLWYS.
  11. The Chicken Dance - Werner Thomas
  12. Yes!! I can get up to somewhere between 95 and 100 bpm on Rhythm Stick depending on the day. And I feel like a bass god! I enjoy playing this bass line, I completely appreciate its genius. And then I try to play along with the track, and curse my stupid clay feet…
  13. Two sets of used tuners - one set are from a Squire Affinity the other are just low quality standard ones. Got a set of single string bridges too. £18 posted
  14. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/167385737980?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=sspacj9ft2u&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=eqlPJw_SSty&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

      • Haha
  15. Set of uke bass tuners and rubber strings. Tried to build something with these but should have listened to @owen and not bothered!!! Time to get rid........
  16. Sure, it looks like a Gibson but it might be an Epiphone Thunderbird Pro IV with a Gibson truss-rod cover, and the simple truth is the Epiphone is every bit as good as the Gibson for maybe one third the price. Seller's asking $600. I'd buy it myself if I had the money or of it's still for sale when I do.
  17. I have a used Seymour Duncan SCPB-3 pickup for sale. Used but very good condition, still has 250mm of wire on it. Collection from Tewkesbury or can post. Cheers!

  18. Thank you all for not making me feel like a failure! I may go back to the song that prompted this thread at some point, but not this week. Thank you all for your input so far. Mark
  19. A couple of bridges and headless clamps. Unused but out of their packs unless otherwise stated. 4 string clamps (no screws) £12 each posted 5 string clamp £40 posted ABM 5 String Bridge £70 posted Used Schaller 2000 bridge £40 posted
  20. Having a bit of a hardware clear out. I have a few sets of machine heads that I wont be using. All are new and unused but the boxes show signs of wear/age. Schaller BMF in black £60 posted Schaller M5-2000 5 string £60 posted Schaller M5-2000 5 string £60 posted Schaller Guitar Tuners £70 posted Schaller M4 Gold 2 a-side £55 posted
  21. So are you saying running at 2,7 Ohms would be preferable?
  22. I'll add https://www.geminipickups.co.uk to the growing list. Very good to deal with, incredibly helpful and receptive to emails. Mark
  23. Gibson massively hurt their sales with their minimum stock requirements and not allowing people to sell epiphone without minimum Gibson stockn while Fender/Squier made hay.
  24. About to buy a BB435 but can’t decide between the Teal Blue or Black! Planning to make it a project workhorse bass. Change to good hardware
  25. Joe Dart II has the Caprice body shape which looks great in black but would have been infinitely better looking with the bridge from the Ray24 and 34.
