One of the greats. RIP Lou.

Paul sorted me out with some knobs for my Fender P.Lyte. Thoroughly decent chap, he's what makes BC the great community it is.

A fabulous instrument in the right hands, nothing like it really. Buddy Emmons and Lloyd Green were the governors for a long time, although now Paul Franklin seems to be generally regarded as one of the best. Look out for his playing with Vince Gill in The Time Jumpers. I'm fortunate to play with a great steelie, Dave Holley. He plays with my country band sometimes, and the steel really adds another dimension. Other UK players of note include the aforementioned BJ Cole, Gordon Huntley, Melvin Duffy and Gerry Hogan (of Hogans Heroes with Albert Lee).

[quote name='Paul S' timestamp='1381924778' post='2245478'] As you were, bingo! Found them - PM me your address and I stick them in the post. [/quote] PM sent - you sir, are a gentleman!

[quote name='Paul S' timestamp='1381911496' post='2245173'] I may have some kicking around - I put a J East U Retro in mine and have the old ones 'somewhere'. I'll have a look and get back to you - if I find them you can have them. [/quote] That's great Paul, thanks. Crossing my fingers!

Thanks. Did have a look at their site, but will get in touch with them to check. Cheers, Pete.

Anyone know where I can source some of these please? Think they were also used on other MIJ Fender late 80's era. They are black plastic with a Fender 'F' logo on the top 'cap' bit, which usually go awol pretty quickly! Any help much appreciated, cheers.

seem to remember 'Sylvia' on Live at the Rainbow album my schoolmate had as having a great bum note in! And here it is, around 2mins 7sec in. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j3pjHgjiXIU[/media]

[attachment=145979:Dave Bronze.JPG]Pretty sure it was a Fender RI - matching headstock too. My better half took this on her phone, but did n't come out that well!!

Had the pleasure of catching Andy Fairweather Low last night at Ripley near Harrogate. Really superb show with a great band featuring Dave Bronze. He was playing a Lake Placid blue Fender Jazz reissue with black nylon strings, into a Mark bass rig with 6x10 cab - sounded immense! I love Dave's playing - economical but right in the groove. He seemed to be enjoying it too, helped by having Paul Beavis on drums. A rare chance to see a world class bassist in a small gig. Music was a mix of blues / country / r&b / even gospel! Also a few Amen Corner gems thrown in along with some of Andy's previous solo stuff. Catch them if you get chance on rest of UK tour - dates here.

BBC1 are showing the Stones at Hyde Park 2013 tonight (Saturday Oct 12th) at 22.35. After the limited Glastonbury footage should be interesting...............

Great amps - use mine with everything pretty much set at 12 o clock and it's proper loud!

Best reason to slap I've ever heard.....

Did have a couple of years ago - P.Bass no name copy (£15 s/h in local paper) coupled with a Harke head and Carlsboro 1x15 cab also bought locally for £75, so £90 total. Gigged it a few times in dodgy pubs and was fine. Love cheap gear me! (Obvious as I also love Danelectros....)

Cheers Phil, as I thought!

I have a couple of Peavey 18" Black Widow 4 ohm speaker chassis that came out of their UL-118 bass bins. They don't work, so presumably need reconing/fixing. Anyone know if it's worth doing, or alternatively if they're worth anything to someone who may be able to do it? I'd prefer to just move them on if poss, assuming it would be economically viable for someone to repair them? Any help much appreciated, cheers.

Just superb.

The Hamish Stuart Band is at The Chichester Inn (in Chichester!) on November 9th. Great band also featuring Steve Pearce on bass and Ian Thomas on drums - should be mega! [url="http://www.chichesterinn.co.uk/s_whatson_detail.asp?event=148"]http://www.chicheste...l.asp?event=148[/url]

One of my favourite bands, seen them many times. Great basslines in their stuff, always economical but just 'right' for the song etc. 'If I ever lose this heaven', 'Work to do' and 'Atlantic Avenue' amongst some of my faves.
