There used to be a lot more special show offers in the past, when the then "London Guitar Show" (IIRC) was held every year at Wembley. I guess the recession is biting hard. [/quote] I bought a guitar stand from there It was a load of rubbish and fell to bits within a week!

My 1960's Squire P Bass Lookalike, I prefer this to my EBMM

[quote name='bluejay' timestamp='1320180272' post='1423521'] Thank you and good evening to you too! Does it ever get boring to be in the loo all the time? [/quote] Not really, I have an iPhone

[quote name='neepheid' timestamp='1320160026' post='1423099'] Could he have said "kink"? [/quote] No, deffo said kick said it was quite common in Fenders

Just got my VM Jazz back from my tech following a setup, and to have the nut re cut. He suggested that I upgrade the pots, as they are rather crackly and a bit cack. He also says the there is a bit of a kick at the top of the neck! Not wishing to appear an idiot, I just nodded. What did he mean by this??

Wow! nice compliments Yes, I did nearly fluff the ending, but a bit of eye contact with the drummer saved it for me. Cheeky run eh? I,ll have another listen. No I havent played this before but I have heard them play a few times, so I just trotted out some cliched root third fifths and some scales, nothing complicated

Thats it for my brief excursion into jazz I,m afraid I have an audition for a rock band next week. I,m currently working on The Seeker by the Who, and Hush, by Deep Purple. Completely un- swingy Thanks for the positive comments guys,

Another recording for you all (Since no body took the P*** out of my first attempt) Recorded on a Zoom H2 I believe! [url="http://soundcloud.com/hobbayne/smile-the-nearness-of-you"]http://soundcloud.co...nearness-of-you[/url]

If a car breaks down or stalls in front of you, beep your horn and wave your arms frantically. This should help the car start and send them on their way.

How about a nice red one? [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/158609-transparent-red-stingray-scratchplate/page__fromsearch__1"]http://basschat.co.uk/topic/158609-transparent-red-stingray-scratchplate/page__fromsearch__1[/url]

Not taking the pi55 out of it, but first time I heard that one, i,m more familiar with the later stuff!

Is that it? Have to learn this for an audition next week. Should only take a minute then.

[quote name='simon1964' timestamp='1319013735' post='1408784'] That's a beauty! [/quote] Thank you! ......................Wanna swap??

Nick Seymour from Crowded House is instantly recognisable!

This is what I tend to do on my bass. With flats it gives a nice percussive tik tak sound

I thought it was an april fools joke!

Cheers guys! My only reference was 'Nivram' by The Shadows and every cliche and scale (chromatic and otherwise) I could throw in there! Still, I did to get to play on a 1959 Precision with flats on it!!

I,m surprised that no one has mentioned Lord Macca! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ui9JzEPEdp8&feature=related
