Hmmmmmm, very tricky Fire and Water by Free And Exodus by Bob Marley and the Wailers I think these two players have especially influenced my sense of space

Why are the holes for the pup cover so wonky?

I didn't know that about the stretching, but it makes perfect sense. Thanks for the education :-) I had idly wondered why the heavier the gauge, the further back it tends to go. Now I know

Sounds exciting! John Woods co-owns the transformer/coil winder machine with John Chambers, who made a transformer for my amp. Looking forward to seeing what you have planned!

I've never tried one, but maybe I should!

I liked my Marlin. It did me well for dozens of gigs and even some recording! Silver Sidewinder with p/h pickups

Nice one Kev. That's karma in action because you're such a nice chap :-)

Does that mean he's Stan Laurel's grandson?

The Congos. I'm really enjoying Lee Scratch Perry's production on the Heart of the Congos album http://youtube.com/watch?v=1JhTM0Lar3Q

Ha, yes, the one that used to be Fox's music

[quote name='Brian Ludwig' timestamp='1359455667' post='1954894'] They look good - is that a snadpaper like covering ? If so does it not rub the skin away ? [/quote] Not at all, in fact I find the grit to be too fine to be truly grippy.

[quote name='thepurpleblob' timestamp='1359637175' post='1957972'] [s]In the nicest possible way (really!). You sound like an idiot. You probably aren't but you sound like it. All that stuff about mp3's and copyright..... good grief!! If you *are* an idiot... oh well, good luck I suppose.[/s] EDIT Ahh sh*t.... I should learn to read. This isn't somebody saying "what do you think of my ad" is it? Well, in that case, he's an idiot. :-D [/quote] :-D I was also reading it thinking that it was Fumps' ad, thinking 'I always thought Fumps seemed really nice, but it turns out he's a knob' Anyway, knob. One who needs to sort his punctuation out.

Please contact this shop with the answer.. I found myself in town without the kids for once, so decided to pop into a music shop. Fair enough they won't have high end stuff in stock because they'd never sell it, but surely a decent setup and getting the spec right on the label is not too much to ask? Between that and the hilarious 'reggae section' in a nearby discount CD shop (the only three artists featured were Bob Marley, Eddie Grant and Shaggy) it's not surprising that I do most of my shopping online!

Yeah, the's a thread where it got pretty slated! I think it looks fantastic, but have no need for two channels, or indeed solid state for that matter. Btw, you've written 100 in the title, a bit weedy maybe? ;-)

Ok, I'll be the first to make a fool of myself :-D 1 was my favourite, smooth with a full bottom. 2 I found a bit harsh on top and slightly lacking on bottom 3 felt more 'modern' with tight bottom and clear top. Now for the tricky bit..... 1 - the Maya 2 - the Bitsa 3 - the US P

The link just shows up as code?

My first combo, which was a Cougar 1x15, but then it was cheap as chips. After that, some Electric Blue head at a rehearsal studio - horrible! Oh, and my old SWR Basic Black. Couldn't get a sound I liked out of it

I got to the stage last summer (when i only had a four string) where I was writing basslines for my new band, and it soon became evident that a low B string would make life easier. So far, I've never felt that the lack of a high C string has been holding me back. I can see situations where it would be beneficial, but they just don't apply to me at the moment.

I tried voting 'happy with bass' but it came up with an error message. Btw, I don't get why 'reggae' is in there - surely this is a type of music, rather than a channel through which the music is created?

Sly Dunbar, although I'd have some pretty big shoes to fill!

I've seen a few, and can think of one or two who have seen me. Possibly more, like it says above, you never can tell who's lurking in the crowd! Edit: in answer to your question, yes I look at that forum, and post my own gigs on my thread there

An Ibanez SR which was hanging around a recording studio. Horrible to play. I can sincerely say that I would rather play my old Marlin Sidewinder.
