  1. I mute with my left hand, any spare finger resting lightly on strings not being played.
  2. John to the rescue yet again! As I swapped out my pickup for one provided by another BC member, I managed to mangle my volume AND tone pot, spoke with John, new loom through the letter box in 24 hours, how DOES he do it???? Deal with extreme confidence, John is da maaan!!
  3. looks like I'll be the second, missing out on the Entwistle, I had his surplus Wilkinson P pickups. Even in these covid times, they arrived within 3 days including the weekend, well packaged and exactly as described. thumbs up from me!!
  4. Wowsers..double impressed! I just wish I could read music.........😥
  5. And there's me thinking you were looking for a Pixar animated DVD
  6. Well, its kept me my sanity in these weird times, and given me Barefaced cabs, I thank you all for those 2 things! Its also given me a steady supply of giggles and stress...mainly when I lurk in off topic. I daren't post much over there, it wouldn't be pretty. Mainly its given me a chance to meet many wonderful people in weird out of the the way places, where furtive deals have been made. I love it!!
  7. If those Wilkinsons are still going begging, I'd love to give em a run on my bitsa.
  8. He is, quite rightly...a popular chap, the rants are awesome!!
  9. That makes me all warm and fuzzy inside, cheers chap!
  10. Ooh the White hart, old high street? that was my local when I lived in Hemel, back in the 70's, loved that pub, and the atmosphere, and the scary landlady sat on a bar stool by the front door. It was shite last time I went in, all the atmosphere stolen, and just 1 big room with bare floorboards.... bring back the 70's 😍😏
  11. I think, if someone likes one of your comments, or uses one of the other amusing emojis, you get a Watt. Its kind of a measure of your popularity......or not, in my case, been here for years, hardly a flicker.
  12. Twice! Starts with the Spector, then a black Stingray and finishes with Betsy!!!
  13. Hi John, is the 'kill' option effectively open circuit? Would it isolate the battery if it was an active bass? It would save having to keep removing lead between sets if so.
  14. For years and years that song has been popping into my head, with me having no idea who it was, many thanks for randomly clearing up one of my annoying little niggles!!
  15. I love these kind of stories, congratz to RK7 for the getting the bass he wants despite everything that came at him!
  16. Would I have got a point for 'the theme from arena'?
  17. My wife is a big fan, we saw her solo a couple of years back and she had the whole audience spellbound for 2 hours or so. Even when her PA failed as she was about to do her last number, she just carried on, we all joined in...special moment.
  18. That colour is amazing.....but I don't NEED another bass...........😍
