  1. Did they close with How's About That Then?
  2. Ah, that kind of kneecap then. Not for me either if so.
  3. English Teacher is the only act that I've managed to watch live so far. Never heard of them but I too thought they were ace 👍
  4. The Big Bang Theory - Barenaked Ladies
  5. No this P is staying, but now I need another with Barts 😆 Glad you're happy and it sounds lush from your description. "Dreamy" - love that!
  6. I've always wondered about and been interested in the Barts. Classic or Original? It may seem a bit crazy to put in some pickups that cost the same as the bass, but I've had these Lollars in a drawer for a few years but never used them. Forgot about them to be honest. I was having a house tidy and discovered enough good P bass bits from here and there knocking around to warrant buying a cheapy to put them all on. It was either that or sell all the bits. Glad I kept them. Turned out to be a fun little project!
  7. Instead of replacing it straight away, try putting on 2 or 3 trussrod washers. This will give you a few extra turns and usually solve the problem. It's a standard fix and costs only pennies (well, couple of quid probably). Just undo and take off the trussrod nut, place washers over the rod thread, then put the nut back on and slowly tighten it to the ballpark of where you had it before, gently flexing the neck straight as you do to take the load off the trussrod as you go. Fine tune from there. Hope that makes sense!
  8. Now you're talking. Let 'em have it!
  9. Always happy to help a bass brother get back on his feet... All the best @lee650 onwards and upwards mate 👊
  10. My dad saw this at the car boot yesterday and rang me to see if I wanted it. Unfortunately he couldn't work out how to take a photo or send it to me 😄 Apparently the guy selling said it belongs to his son who plays guitar all over the world, and the bass had been in his attic for 25 years. There's no serial numbers on it. I said it sounds like it's just been nicked off someone in Rhyl so I passed! *edit - of course the story might be true, but over the phone it sounded fishy. The guy wanted £200 for it btw @AndyTravis
  11. Love this. Brian "goofing around" during the Pet Sounds sessions. Didn't even make the original album. I am a sucker for trombones farting out though 😄
  12. I initially didn't post because it kind of feels like I've lost a lost family member in a way. It's beyond usual words. Just been paying my own private respects, celebrating his work and a lifetime of my personal memories attached to it.
  13. No, they already have all the Mordor you need at just the turn of a dial 😄
