  1. Believe me I would still be gigging these today if I had a bigger car and my 40 year old back muscles.
  2. I am firmly in that camp. That is if 'fanbois' means what I think it means. Sounds like a French cheese.
  3. I saw pink and green and black on there. Funnily didn't see the burgundy. That is beautiful in real life by the way. I have it on my jazz
  4. That's a great idea 💡
  5. Uh huh..
  6. I might try one anyway...
  7. They're called the Compact. They have changed them since mine were designed but definitely still make them. Perfect width if stacked on their sides
  8. Hi, it's two 15" Barefaced cabs. A winning combination.
  9. There's a reason these don't come up too often. Great little pedal.
  10. You looking for a 1x15 too? You know, make it worth my while....
  11. Last minute gig last night - saved me from a dead weekend. I arrived first, "where do the bands set up mate?" "Over there under the TV" In between the two toilet doors. Nice. Wait, that space is the width of a TV. Umm
  12. Far be it from me to say but it balances so beautifully you wouldn't know it was there
  13. Stop it. I'm so easily lead astray
  14. Got to insure the car so no basses for me this month. No more basses.
  15. Excellent!
  16. I don't know what to do
  17. One of the most stupid/hilarious anti Harley Benton comments I've read recently (and they're almost all just cut and paste by people with zero real life experience) was a guy who says once he'd cut off and thrown away the awful strings it was a much better bass. The instrument came with D'Addario strings as standard.
  18. Oh bloody hell
  19. Thomann have the Squier 40th P Bass 100 quid off...
  20. Dammit you know me so well
  21. The Beatles are becoming increasingly significant to me. Or perhaps I ought to say their significance is becoming increasingly clear to me. The more I study what they did, the more I learn of the context within which they did it, the way they anticipated musical genres by many years. Their songwriting skills, their experimental side, their willingness to work with the creativity of others, their ability to absorb influences of other great artists of the time, and the blueprint they created for future generations to follow all suggest to me they were pretty damn important. I wasn't of the Beatle generation, they'd gone by the time I began my musical journey. They excited my instinct to kick against the establishment which seemed intent on repeatedly telling me how amazing they were. So I didn't pay them any attention until the 90s. My drummer at the time told me to go listen to a couple of albums, and I was genuinely astonished. Abbey Road was one and it blew me away. I couldn't imagine how it must have sounded to folk when it first came out. Mind boggling I assume .
  22. Well that's always a possibility of course
