  2. That's it, good man.
  3. Yes I remember that and wanted to look it up but failed. I had started to think it was maybe on Talk Bass
  4. Hope it's a good one
  5. You have made me want to go and free my Wal from it's case. I've not gigged or even rehearsed it for an age. That will have to change.
  6. [quote name='Graham' timestamp='1326459658' post='1497465'] Dammit, would've been up for this, but I'm getting married on the 8th of June and I don't think my bride to be would be too impressed if I popped out to do a gig.............. [/quote] Some women can be a bit touchy about that sort of thing
  7. Enjoy, I'm sure it will be a very entertaining gig.
  8. I did as Neepheid suggested but as I had just given up fags, used smoking economics. I gave up in July 2010 so have saved approx. £2,000. Allowing me to get a very nice G&L SB1 and a 75 P bass
  9. Does that grain look as stunning in the flesh as in the pics Si? Damn that's handsome. Good luck with the sale, I've got a nice P if you want to swap Just kidding, I'm hanging on to it for a while yet.
  10. [quote name='bigjohn' timestamp='1326320063' post='1495559'] Then put wood glue on the screws and bolted the neck on. Lovely. [/quote] Really? Why? Not looking to be argumentative, just can't see the need.
  11. Nice one James. Not good though is it, that it's necessary to do so?
  12. As you, I was slightly concerned when I found that the band I was joining downtuned by a semi tone. I have not found any problem or the need for any adjustments to the set up or truss rod. What has been a minor inconvenience is when trying to learn numbers that are recorded at concert pitch.
  13. [b]Nice one Daz.[/b] Played this with a band a while back and always had fun with it.
  14. You can drill out the holes but wouldn't really recommend doing it freehand as it were. Best bet is to use a proper drill bench and clamp down the neck so that there is no movement, ensuring that the holes are accurate and not skewing off at an angle.
  15. I shall update with photos as the refurb progresses. Look forward to seeing it restored to it's former glory.
  16. I had this one on my watch list, now deleted, what a total dick.
  17. I use a Genz Shuttle 6 with two Mark Bass cabs and have been very pleased with the combination. Mine are not the travellers though.
  18. Looking forward to it. Best of luck
  19. Nice one. A much happier day for you today then
  20. So glad the wait is over for you and us. Lovely looker, which will look even lovelier when you change the pick guard, good call.
  21. [quote name='silddx' timestamp='1325813953' post='1488345'] Lovely! Have you read his autobiography 'The Big Wheel' ? If not, PM me your addy and I'll send it to you. It's a great read. [/quote] Thanks Nige, you are a fine chap
  22. Yes and it's a joyous thing. Glad it's working out for you.
  23. I should probably do a proper search to check whether this has already been posted but it's late. So if you haven't already seen it, check it out and enjoy [url="http://www.brucethomas.co.uk/"]http://www.brucethomas.co.uk/[/url]
  24. I have a decentish Yamaha acoustic on a stand in the lounge. Mostly it sits there and is dusted more than it's played. Sometimes strum a few chords on it. Play the ukele a bit, thoroughly enjoy it but need to learn a few more chords.
  25. I had this on my ipod this very morning. A good tune and was very popular on the northern soul scene
