Very lean over the last couple of months. We have got a fair few coming up though, starting off this evening.

[quote name='Thunderbird' timestamp='1408034688' post='2526500'] Do you mean the 15th of August mate? [/quote] I did Paul. Easily confused of late.

Off to edit it now. Thanks Richard.

Some of the venues that I've played this year have stopped us from using them. Social clubs mostly.

After our summer break, back to kicking up a din again. Friday 15th August. The White Swan. Hoddesdon. Herts. EN11 8TN. It will be a mixed set of rock, dance, disco and soul. 9 pm - mid night. Free entry.

Discreet and White Cloud suggested other makes, so I feel justified in doing the same Check out G&L Leo's improvement on his Fender P

Yes it's working for me. Do you want me to bid on something for you John?

I'm fairly new to Dingwalls but I've yet to see a duff one. I've not actually seen a Combustion up close and personal but don't think Sheldon Dingwall would put his name to anything that wasn't of a very high standard.

If you are about on the Friday night, my lot DefunkT, are on at the Lord Haig, we wanted the Sunday off.

I find myself suddenly wanting a Jazz again. That is handsome Karl.

I would be wary, although I suppose that you need to consider that the wear is not from fifty years of playing, as it has been refinished a few times. It's difficult to be sure by just viewing photos. If I was keen, I would be making contact, asking questions and if at that point felt it might be the real thing, then I would see if the seller was willing to let me inspect and play it.

[quote name='chris_b' timestamp='1407409510' post='2520165'] I don't understand hanging basses on the wall. They're not ornaments to me. I keep all my basses in their cases and my main gigging bass doesn't come out at home. [/quote] I feel that a wall is just too bare without a bass or two hanging on it. But, like you, my main giggin bass stays in its case.

Unlike you, I want my back up bass (for gigging) to be similar to my main bass. But go try them all and have fun.

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1407410503' post='2520176'] I don't understand the question. Duhhhh... *Drools... stares out of window with mouth open* [/quote] I make a concerted effort not to think ahead but to concentrate on the moment. Fail miserably sometimes though and that tends to be on the simple ones, that I've played countless times before, suddenly realising that I'm thinking about something that has nowt to do with the song and then mentally scrambling about and trying to get back on track.

[quote name='andydye' timestamp='1407324844' post='2519415'] Sooooooo, got a seymour duncan spb-1 and a kiogon loom in there now and she sounds luvverly! a really good balance between loads of bottom and not too much bottom, lovely woody sound with a characteristic 70's p (ash bodied) clank with the tone up full. Really really sweet an dshe looks awesome too the band are in love! I want another [/quote] That can be a problem, one just ain't enough. That's how I ended up with two examples from the 70's and a 66. Gradually thinning back out again and now down to the 75 and 66. Glad yours is all up and running.
