Band A: 1: 5 2: 1 3: 1 4: 2 Band B: 1: 7 2: 3 3: 3 4: 0 Band C 1: 6 2: 3 3: 1 4: 1 Scores reflect some new members about whom I am of course still neutral. To those who won't gig with anyone they don't like, that used to be me too. I ended up not gigging.

I shall do as you ask. The bass became my go to, leapfrogging the rest with immediate effect, as soon as I played it. First time I gigged it I was approached by a member of the audience who raved about the sound. Might not be to everyone's taste of course, but if ever you're down this way gigging give me a shout I'll bring it along for you to try.

Well, the rather splendid @Lozz196 is sending me the proper P Bass covers so I can make my decision when they arrive. Will the PU cover get in the way? Will I ruin the elegant simplicity of the bass? Will @Mickeyboro come up with more Bruce Thomas related puns? Watch this space...

I can't find half my kit. Nor remember what the other half is.

No wonder Flake looks so sad

Awesome. Damn I love that man's playing.

Boom!

That sounds like the perfect description of why we play music in the first place! Glad you had a good night.

I CAN'T TAKE IT I CAN'T TAKE IT *gibber gibber*

Well, based on the fact that he didn't, then I'd have to say definitely not. However, based on him saying "Of course, you may disagree with some of my reasoning and want to tweak your bass in some way or another, which I hope you do." on his website I'd have to say he kind of gives his blessing.

Ah cr@p - put me under pressure why doncha??

that's what I'm thinking. Bought a 2nd hand amp has a couple small scuffs need fixing. Going to try this method on an old tatty one first.

I see what you mean. Darn it. Been sold the wrong ones. They said Precision but hey ho. Ah well, next time I'm in Guandong I'll take them back!

Hmm, I thought I had bought Precision ones - must confess I know nothing about these things. How do I tell the difference?

She was concerned about the crowning on the third fret.

Reminds me, must see if my old mum has finished getting the snow off the TV aerial, I need her down off the roof, that shed won't paint itself.

God no - whatever would she expect next if you started spoiling her like that?

Cheers Paul

Thanks Steve, it is helpful I hadn't thought to ask about open tickets, however i suspect they are booked seats as the prices are all different.

It is surprisingly simple. Trust me I'm a ham fisted klutz and I managed it!

I know what you mean about the colour but the hole filling hack looks really useful.

@ezbass It plays as well as any of the Fenders or MMs I've owned. It sounds massive, is relatively light, and i think looks awesome. Put it this way my Fender Jazz went straight into a box ready to sell the moment I played the Bruce Thomas Profile.

Thanks guys. Sadly driving and hotels are out of the question. I am literally penniless right now. Can borrow the coach fare and gig ticket was paid for last year. Trains are way beyond my price range. All will be better once someone buys my beautiful Jazz bass but for now everything is on a budget.
