When I had a 4001 put a Hipshot on, which makes palm muting way easier. Saying that the Hipshot is not perfect as the saddles can move.

[quote name='lojo' timestamp='1437229706' post='2824571'] I've been fostered, adopted and given up again, and know plenty of people like me who have grown up troubled and unwanted, but came out as nice decent caring people (who know how much these things hurt so wont want to inflict it on others). I also know people with disney backgrounds who are horrible, vindictive and walk over anyone. [/quote] Good for you.

I'm not sure of the body. The burst looks a bit harsh to others I've seen. I'd want to see the neck heel, neck pocket, pups, routs, pots and wiring

I've heard it said that the '80's was the re-packaged 50's and the 90's was the 60's.

Well, we up to 3 coats of base and 2 coats of white

I'd go for Girls Aloud and The Bangles, but knowing my luck would probably end up in L7

Some great stuff in the '80's. But not much of it in the charts. I spent much of it listening to stuff like this.. [media]http://youtu.be/fTDlIszv_YE[/media]

What's his hairstyle like now?

Rammstein

I really enjoyed the film and took a different message than most have said here. I reckon he's someone who is deeply damaged by the death of his Father, He has serious abandonment issues. He anticipates people leaving him by end gaming and leaving them first. He is deliberately thorny so when people have enough of him he can say 'Ha people are bastards'. It's a role he plays to protect himself from being hurt. I've seen this in a couple of people I know who have either been adopted or have lost parents very young. If he really was an abhorrent person he's be sticking pins in animals, not caring for them.

I pulled the ring out from my Prince Albert while cleaning my bass. I'm worried about the hole closing up, so if you send me a pair of these I can use them to bung the eye open before I get to the Blacksmith's

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1436550109' post='2819145'] It wood though, wooden it? Har, har. [/quote] Yes. Wooden

Smooth..

[quote name='zero9' timestamp='1436547365' post='2819113'] There is no perceptible difference in 'feel' between a graphite or wooden neck, it's all down to finish. [/quote] Well, were going to have to agree to disagree on that one. That's like saying a concrete neck would feel the same as a wooden neck if it had the same finish on.

[quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1436524507' post='2818829'] I have no idea what that means!! [/quote] 'Feel' comes not just from the material the object is finished with, but from the weight and handling of the object. I've not played a graphite neck, but should imagine the material is brittle in a way that wood is not. This would effect micro-tactile elements of things like hardness and flexibility.

[quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1436510583' post='2818655'] Unless you like your necks to be almost bare wood, once the finish has been applied there is zero difference in feel between a graphite neck and a wooden one. [/quote] Surely the modulus of elasticity is different?

A fiver

I've heard graphite is much heavier than wood. True or false?

Well, it sounds like it's getting underway.

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1436429556' post='2817984'] How about this? One of the T-Birds owned in the 70s by Pete Overend Watts (Mott The Hoople). That's what you call a craqueleur finish!! [/quote] I suppose it's a long way down when those platforms give way
