  1. I need to get myself along to one of these sort of geek fests Looks great and some lovely kit on show.
  2. [quote name='Bassman Sam' timestamp='1452264908' post='2948249'] Sold. [/quote] Excellent, can't believe it was here for so long.
  3. [quote name='Jazzneck' timestamp='1452108742' post='2946559'] Oi certainly do Mr.Gary Mac! I went for about 30 years doing the day job with short, neatly trimmed hair and no sidies then, just prior to retirement in 2010 a couple of photos, including this one, were discovered and my sons and colleagues dared me to grow them again. So I did....and b*ll*cks to the lot of you! Yesterday I went to the barbers for a tidy up and I will admit that even after the haircut, my hair and sidies are longer today than they are in that photo. However, all is now silver and grey, a small area of thinning at the back of the scalp and the length of the sidies has increased on account of the fact that the curvature around my face has increased due to serious fatness. [/quote] Good for you, what's the point in growing old sensibly My area of thinning at the back is expanding at a fair old rate, almost as quickly as the bloody stuff grows in my ears
  4. That is a great pic. Don't you still have those side burns Mr. Jazzneck?
  5. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R7r7CHn6Pkg[/media] I've used a fair bit of this since having it recommended to my by BC'er Grand Wazoo and can confirm it works a treat.
  6. Shonks, I've moved this to GD. For what it's worth, I think sellers should put a location, particularly if it is collection only. My feeling is that it should not be mandatory though.
  7. Good advice from ras52 but it wouldn't be natural to stay out of the Market place Welcome to the forum and to the world of bass, enjoy your journey.
  8. My white G&L SB1 has become known as the bra worrier
  9. Well seeing that it's withdrawn, I had better do my modding duty and close it down
  10. Well if you are happy to wield the soldering iron, take some close up pics first, which will help massively if you forget what cable goes where. Check out which pot you need, there will be a set of numbers on it as identity. Order yourself a replacement pot, cts are great and not much dosh. Fire up the soldering iron. If you are not concerned about keeping all the rest original, you could get a drop in, complete new wiring loom and controls from our very own Kiogon, no soldering required.
  11. I do the same as PaulWarning, sound check without ear plugs but then use them for the gig. I enjoy playing at what I feel is a sensible volume, if the band really gels and is a tight unit, then it will sound powerful, which to my way of thinking is much better than just being loud.
  12. Very authentic looking, love the level of relicing.
  13. Happy to recommend Tim as another of the good guys to deal with.
  14. Good day Rich. Does this happen with one particular make of string?
  15. Looks great, a very tidy job and the photos aren't bad at all
  16. [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1451475247' post='2940731'] I agree with the above, but unfortunately there are songs I just will [i]not [/i]play and so I don't 'do' covers bands. They include, but are not limited to: Sex On Fire, All Right Now, Mustang Sally, Mr Brightside, Brown Eyed Girl, Sweet Home Alabama, All The Small Things, Get Lucky, Honky Tonk Woman, Brown Sugar, Play That Funky Music, Creep, Smoke On The Water, Hotel California, Superstition, Proud Mary, Wonderful Tonight, Born To Be Wild, Wonderwall, Crazy Little Thing Called Love, Moves Like Jagger... and yes, bleeding Summer of Fecking 69. There you have it. There are lots more but I can't think of them right now... [/quote] I guess I won't be asking you to dep for me then
  17. Just hoping that my body doesn't continue to fall to bits too rapidly and that I'm able to keep gigging for another year.
  18. I used Lemon Oil for years and never had any problems with it but for the last year or so, since my wife bought my a bottle, I've been using this. I'm really impressed with it, only a tiny amount is needed and it can be used not only for the fret board but the whole instrument, including strings and hardware. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Dr-Ducks-String-Electric-Acoustic-guitars/dp/B00FA3GROU
  19. Happy to start a thread and recommend Signal Path. Bought a gig bag from me, great comms and paid immediately.
