  1. An ancient Blackberry, oh you young whippersnappers.
  2. There was a time when this really wound me up but I've now programmed myself not to worry about it.
  3. Agree with Mr Icastle A couple of months down the line and those tracks that seem difficult/too fast etc. will be a breeze. Rise to the challenge bass sister
  4. Enjoy the project, I've done a few over the years and they were all enjoyable and turned out really well. Was tempted to buy that neck from Rumple myself
  5. Wouldn't it be prudent to get some advice from the surgeon/consultant, rather than us lot? I had surgery a few years back and about two weeks later, played a short set of about half an hour. I enjoyed it but that half an hour was more than enough.
  6. This has been a great cheer up thread for me today.
  7. [quote name='Happy Jack' timestamp='1427703338' post='2733096'] Shouldn't you ask a Mod ... no, wait ... [/quote]
  8. I use it at the end of each and every gig, sometimes at the end of each set. Makes a huge difference to string life. The strings that I replaced on my main gigging bass a couple of weeks back, had been on for a year ( sad I know but I keep records) and had done thirty plus gigs.
  9. Excellent review old chap. Glad you are enjoying.
  10. Yes, adding an extension cab will unleash the full umph I've never used an Asdown so can't speak from experience on the eq section but generally I would say get the gain up to a point where you are maximising volume but without clipping (there will be a light or a gauge I'm guessing). Then set your master volume to suit the venue. Perhaps start with eq all set flat and adjust to suit the venue.
  11. [quote name='Happy Jack' timestamp='1427439868' post='2730311'] In one of my bands, I sing Natural Born Bugle ... Well there she is again, stepping out of the limousine. Love that track. [/quote] I must get along to a Happy Jack gig
  12. [quote name='dadofsix' timestamp='1427419598' post='2730285'] That's back when I was fronting for my band. Lots of Deep Purple. Space Truckin may not have been much of a song, but damn, it was fun to sing! lol [/quote] Space Truckin was in the set on my very first bass gig back in 73/74. Midway through the number, the pick up on my Epiphone parted company with the bass, the noise it made was truly horrid, even worse than my playing
  13. Hello and welcome Jules, good to meet you
  14. Happy memories of listening to this album when it was first released. This and Humble Pie, Rocking the Filmore are amongst my fave live albums.
  15. Wow, that is some investment.hope you enjoy it.
  16. Lovely. What wood is that? Know what you mean about being fearful of getting it dinged at gigs. I haven't gigged my newest one yet for the same reason. Our gigs are mostly in pubs, although we do have a gig in May on a proper stage, so will probably give it an outing for that one.
  17. Another excellent transaction with John. Super rapid delivery, great price and great service. He's a top man
  18. Another SB1 in the house A well used and genuinely reliced '86 [url="https://flic.kr/p/qN1Ngx"][/url] [url="https://flic.kr/p/rJGh8S"][/url]
