Looking good.

It's not really a showcase for bands. The format is more a mix of players from a number of local bands, putting together ad hoc bands for the occasion, no rehearsals, just a set list (which more often than not, gets forgotten on the day) announced a few days before hand. Happy to let you know when the next one is though. It's a good place to meet the local musicians, introduce yourself and put yourself forward. I know the next one will probably be July, when we will be raising money once again, for Great Ormond St Hospital.

I like the look of just about all of them, guitars and basses.
-
The first generation ones had a slightly larger cabinet and so weighed a couple of kilos more.

I love the look of all three 😀👍

Thanks for that Bridgehouse, very true words. I was after a 63, that has now sold -
Not ringing any bells, do you know which covers band? If it's one I get to see, then I'll be sure to say hello to him.

Will leave you to moderate this one 😄

Seconded -
The sound was the reason that I added it, never found the combo on its own, lacking in volume.🙂

As always, a quality review Mr. discreet. You don't need the Trace extension cab but I can tell you, it does sound even more awesome with one. A Trace 2 x10" added to that combo is a very pleasing combination.

It looks great and if it saves your hands some stress and strain, then that's a marvelous thing.

Thanks for the glowing reference Lozz, apprerciated. -
I wasn't gigging last night and was really looking forward to Chic,,actually was thinking of getting tickets but wasn't willing to shell out well over,three hundred quid. Have to admit to not actually enjoying it, I know Niles uses top notch musicians but for me the rhythm unit was way too busy and the lead vocal over indulgent. Switched off and went to bed after the fireworks.

Last bump of the year.

A final 2017 bump

I wonder if I know him, there were quite a few drummers there on the night.

So is the X Factor, I'm told.

Oh my word, I thought the neck shim thread got tedious but then I found this one. I almost wish that being tedious was a rule breaker, then I could lock it and throw it in to cyber space

Good buy that. I had one ,a while back, with a Seymour Duncan Antiquity installed. It sounded very good. -
Last bump before Christmas.

I will add, that I thought the labour charge seemed reasonable.

Reading through this thread, certainly shows a massive amount of over thinking the subject. I had a P bass in for repair yesterday. It needed a shim as the bridge saddles were all the way down and the action still too high. Had the neck off, a piece of laminated card in there and all back together, perfectly adjusted within about thirty mins. Guess what? No loss of tone/sustain/volume and the action is just lovely now. Maybe, just maybe, the card will compress a bit in a few years time and then the whole complicated job will have to be done again.

That is looking pretty fab Kevin.
