Probably about 12 or 13 years ago for me. I realised I didn’t have any use for a tone control and have removed it from every bass I’ve had since.

I was just contact by STS Touring about buying an amp I’m selling. They seem be a hire company based in Manchester who needed more of the amp I’m selling and offered to buy and collect it with very few questions. Has anyone had experience with them before and know if they’re legit? They have a pretty basic website but it’s a bit ropey. Any info would be appreciated. www.ststouring.co.uk Thanks.

Pending sale fell through so this is back on the market. Still asking £950. -
Well the Ramones didn’t form until ‘74 so...

I know Slipknot tune down to A for some songs and they’ve always used 4-strings do it is doable.

Now looking for £950.

I use that gauge for standard tuning. I don’t think they’d be playable (for me, at least) tuned down to B.

Saw Skindred at Rock City in Nottingham last night. The real reason I went was to see Danko Jones who were on first and we’re brilliant, as always. If you like a tongue-in-cheek rock n roll power trio then they come highly recommended (by me, at least). I couldn’t (and still can’t) name you a single Skindred song but despite this I thoroughly enjoyed their set. Decent songs, decent sound (a rarity for Rock City) and just a whole lot of fun throughout! I don’t think I’m going to go away and listen to their music but I’d certainly see them live again.

Instead of queuing for hours and fighting the eBay chumps to buy the new, overpriced Toy Dolls reissue I went to a local independent shop and bought two original copies for a total of £2.68.

Here are a couple from a recent tour in Europe.

Did he mention that he’s rich? I can’t remember whether he’s rich or not. -
One of my bands does this. Apparently when the guitarist (who started the band and writes the songs) started playing he didn’t have any kind of tuner so he tuned to Weezer’s Pinkerton album and has tuned to Eb ever since.

Now looking for £1000.

Bizarre but true musical collaborations?

I believe Flea played on a Johnny Cash track on American II. I also think SRV playing on Let’s Dance and EVH on Beat It are kinda odd when you consider each artist’s career/background. -
Last day of Jan bump.

Amps, cabs, pedals etc. In the living room - some under the stairs, some behind an armchair. Basses in the spare room in what was intended to be a built-in wardrobe.

I agree with Paul that you need to be very very very lucky to ‘make it.’ You don’t even really NEED to be that good. Sometimes just being in the right place at the right time is enough.

Friday morning bump.

Now £1200.
-
Christmas Eve bump. Now £1300.

You clearly weren’t listening. He marked exactly where the original bridge was to get the right annotation.

For me this year has seen a grand total of three gigs, with two more to come. 2017 has been pretty terrible for me as far as music goes.

I’m selling my Fender Super Bassman 300W all-valve amp. It’s not getting much use at the minute so I think it’s time for it to be appreciated by someone else. I bought the amp new around 3 years ago and it’s only done one tour and a handful of gigs here and there. The tolex is coming away on the top but it’s been like that since new and hasn’t got any worse in the time I’ve had it. Apart from that it’s in good condition and works and sounds great! Unfortunately I don’t have any way to ship this at the minute. You’re welcome to come and try it out. I’m based in Nottingham, 5 minutes from M1 J26. I’m also willing to travel as long as it’s not too far (‘not too far’ is negotiable). Thanks.
