Oddly enough was just looking at their site this evening. Could see me ordering a few basses off there TBH

Excellent - Cheese and Grain in Frome, very professional venue. Crowd not as large as Id like but that's promotion issue. All in all a very good gig

Play all my gigs on a £100 Squier PJ with a little of Klogons magic inside, and a £75 Westfield B*st*rd that I defretted with a blunt hacksaw and a bolster. No-ones complained yet

An excellent gig was had at the Concorde2 in Brighton, several band faux ups but rallied and saved magnificently ( and luckily on more than one occasion lol) A fairly large and enthusiastic crowd reminded us of exactly why we do what we do. I hope we can play there again. And of course, Dave Grohl and his cohorts graced that same stage less than a week before, I did seriously consider licking it at one point

I take it he isn't known for speeding thru his builds then?

I know your pain

Liking that lots

Id go with that. Ive gone (via a 10 year break) from metal to kate Bush. Certainly broadened my horizons a bit lol

I had the pleasure of catching Big Countrys set at Upton Sunshine Festival last night, and was suitably blown away, they were awesome. Much props go to vocalist Simon Hough, who somehow manages to capture something of Stuart adamsons style whilst still keeping his own. anyway, Derek Forbes (who looked cool as in his kilt lol) was playing a P bass, in a finish I didn't recognise. Mirror scratchplate, it looked the business. I found this vid and its the same bass, difficult to make it out though - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kXJvm21DQ00&feature=youtu.be Anyone able to tell me much about it? cheers

Took a break for a decade, enjoying rediscovering my favourite instrument as we speak

Going Underground - The Jam. Anyone have any clue how Bruce Foxton plays the last note? is it an effect?

Not last night but earlier today, had a blast when we played Bristol Pride. If you've not been to a Pride do (and I hadn't) then go, its amazing and an incredible amount of fun

I imagine you rarely get bored in your job

That depends I guess, if that's meant to be a sink plug, then its crap

I have a similar thing but its in the lucid world not the dream one, where I come off stage thinking I played really well, and then a few days later I see a vid of the gig and the horrible truth hits me.......

Had a blast at the 'debutt' gig of That 70's Band, hot and sweaty and lots of fun and raised lots of money for charidee mate, so Im told. Now to find some paid gigs lol

Look at that string....that's thicker than my arm lol Blablas, Id love to see a thread dedicated to showing off all the basses you've made, and Ill bet im not the only one

yeah looks it. Sincerely now, enjoy N(P)BD Betafunk. Looks like a lot of fun

Woah there Beta chill with the hostility eh? Was just a simple question

err but you've had that avatar for ages? Im getting well mixed up here, I thought today was NBD wheres me tablets??

Is that not a similar bass in your avatar?

Is the bass in your avatar not yours then?

South Devon Evil, not too far from Mansons and even they didn't have anything short last time I was in
