  1. If Harry Hill can wear the shirt then you go for it too. Good luck and hope it works out even if only nostalgia. Dave
  2. One of my fav players too. Seen better clips which shows his talent and technique far better. Cant knock his talent tho. Dave
  3. Cant say I've ever been in that position but then again I don't think I would dep for anyone for few reasons 1. I don't have time to learn new sets at short notice 2. I'm probably not confident enough to ad-lib a full set these days 3. I wouldn't trust anyone enough to do it. Kys sounds like a twat tho Dave
  4. Not sure if i picked this up correctly but I thought the Polytune could be set to inhibit the OUT when tuning or used as a straight thru while tuning or not. The footswitch only operates the display on/off in that mode. There are a few little buttons on the end where connectors are for setting it up to do different modes. I haven't experimented with it to confirm and i use mine with OUT inhibited when tuning. Might be worth checking the manual from TC website to confirm. I would check mine but mailing from work at the moment. Dave
  5. yep looking forward to buying this when it comes out.
  6. My 6 string fretless suffered with flat B string until I bought elixir strings and because they didn't have a light gauge B string as standard they offered me a superwound style where string has no wrap over the bridge. I use that only on the B string while rest are standard Elixir strings. Dave
  7. Maplins do both the soft plastic cover type and the rigid type. I recently replaced 2off on 2nd hand Jaydee that had been replaced with rigid type. Batteries were that tight in the compartment whoever fitted them actually dented the batteries. I think the leads were approx. 6-8" length. If these aren't long enough extend the cables and use heat shrink to cover the soldered extension. Remember when extending cables to make sure you split the cores and twist together before soldering. Slide the heat shrink over the joint and use hair drier or if you are careful the soldering bolt to shrink. Dave
  8. I was advised to use linseed oil on my fretless necks. Haven't but maybe about time I gave it a wee birthday. Its been a few yrs now. Dave
  9. If your DI box is between the amp and 4x12 cab then the polarity might have some kind of effect but without knowing whats in the DI box its difficult to say. Has polarity change cured the problem ? Dave
  10. Go for it. I would love to see a band cover this live. Has my vote. Dave
  11. Filled the Steve Hackett slot exceptionally well. Was never a huge fan of that era's music but must admit to admiring his and John Taylor's bass playing and as pointed out earlier far more entertaining than Mark King slap and tickle where he became bigger than the band itself. Good to see them again. Dave
  12. Big fan and I'm not even related would you believe. Dave
  13. Nice ! I liked it a lot. Well done and hope to hear more from you. Dave
  14. I've used CD Baby many times and they have been pretty good and reliable in case you're worried about them. Have you tried his website to buy Dave
  15. Merry Christmas to all who celebrate. Hope Santa brought you everything you asked for. Dave
  16. So its either nothing, buy your own or in some cases a bass related item then. The photo from daughter in navy tops it so far. Great photo and gift. Its not about what you get but more about family time. Dave
  17. 2 days to Santa. What's he bringing you this year ? I'm getting a Mono strap, TC Electronic Nova Reverb & delay pedals Dave
  18. Thanks Clarky, just ordered it from Amazon. Dave
  19. In specifc order Bob Daisley Roger Glover Jack Bruce Geddy Lee Neil Murray Sandin Wilson Jimmy Haslip Trevor Bolder Tony Franklyn Gary Thain Dave
  20. Destroyer - Kiss Jailbreak - Thin Lizzy Rainbow Rising - Rainbow 2112 - Rush Dave
  21. My Warwick thumb suffers from that a bit and i found suede backed strap the cheapest option and works pretty well. Other options are moving strap buttons. Did see someone who had a smaller strap attached to a normal belt style strap used for a 6 string bass ?? Dave
  22. He did a lot of session work with many bands after Genesis era. Fantastic musician. Like it. Dave
  23. ELP Fanfare for common man with gtr doing the keys part (effects required) This could make for an interesting challenge. Another option is that someone else takes over the vox for a song ?? Dave
  24. [quote name='steviedee' timestamp='1386438210' post='2300169'] Buy one, I've persevered and at this specific moment in time it's the bass I like playing the most. It looks awesome and sounds like a herd of wild horses revving Harley Davidsons in a canyon somewhere. [/quote]
  25. At least you got your money back. By sound of it the medical issue was serious then ? Dave
