Good point. Criminal has nothing to lose, he's already labelled a criminal in eyes of the law. You on the other hand don't need this kind of aggro over the festive period. Have you reported it to the police @prowla ? otherwise this thread is gonna run forever with everyone else getting angry and agitated which we don't need at Xmas time. Report it to the police and Facebook. Let them deal with it and move on to enjoy Xmas. Don't let this ruin your festive spirit.

I thought it had been raised with Police. Was there not a mention a few pages back about a police report number or whatever its called these days. ?

Even better. Like Dave Paton and getting the best of Pilot as a wee Xmas pressie from my wife. Until recently i wasn't aware Dave Paton played with Elton John. Dave

Love that song and bassline. One of my favourite EJ songs just for the bass.

I always thought bank transfer was safer. ? Dave

How did you pay him. ? Can you claim your money back thru bank or Paypal Dave

Oddly enough i thought you would pick that one. 😂

Do you have a fav ? Dave.

Kansas UK Bruford Sweet Slade T.Rex Probably too many to list Dave

Rush ?

Agree. Everything just works so well in that song. Possibly the best rock song ever written IMHO of course.😀

Even taking a copy from Bilbo and marking up the changes and reposting back on here would be great. Dave

It would be great to get the bass part from the original bassist. Dave

Once our band set list is learned i will pick something to work on that taxes me a little bit more otherwise i will faff about for a bit and get fed up. Usually its something from Bilbo's collections. That also keeps my interest in practicing especially under current climate. Dave

Same for me

I always use @Bilbo transcriptions as a guide or great starting point. Dave

100% with you there. 😀

Sad, ever so sad but i do respect you for your commitment.

That surely has to go against trade description. Should it not be Pearlescent Purple. 😂 Of course that means i'd be expecting something glittery like this Dave

That makes more sense calling it Candy paint. Candy Apple i automatically think red. Dave

You're showing a lot of geekiness there 😂 Dave 🎅

I always thought it was Candy Apple Red because it looked like a red candy apple finish but its as you say a metallic basecoat with a translucent color coat and then a final gloss coat for more shine. Once again every day a school day at Basschat. Isn't it great to be learning every day even at my age. Dave

I don't know what you mean 😂 Dave 🎅

Have to say i like the purple one. Where did they get that description from tho. Candy Apple Purple ???? Dave

Have to say Neil has been such a great guy answering so many questions i've been storing over the years. He has shared some of his vast knowledge about everything from basses, amps, strings, playing and recording. He has confirmed my thoughts that he is a true gent and just a really nice guy. I was gobsmacked that he even took the time to reply. Just goes to show that some pros are still nice people after the fame. Dave
