What fingers are You using for fingerstyle plucking?
pst62 replied to Johannes's topic in General Discussion
Index and middle, when I was young I used to be able to incorporate the ring finger. During the mid 80's a few of us ended up in a fight with some local skinheads and I received a kick which somehow went between my middle and ring finger, luckily neither finger got broken, but damage was done and as a result my ring finger now rests at a slightly off angle towards my pinky. On the up side though, I found I can do a Mr Spock "Live long and prosper" gesture as easy as giving someone the V's. -

Whenever I listen to Genesis' A Trick Of The Tail or Wind And Wuthering, I'm taken right back to the late 70's in Teesside, hanging out with friends, and listening to an eclectic mix of music around each others houses on bitterly cold winter nights.

It is indeed a wonderful piece of music! Have you heard the version by The New American Orchestra? IMHO it's sublime.

Great player, loved his stuff with the pre poodle Whitesnake. -
It looks like they're using the same page builders as Northwest Guitars.

Earlier this year I phoned them about a Tort Pickguard for a Precision they had advertised on their site, got an abrupt "They're out of stock!" and before I could ask if they were getting any more, I was listening to the dial tone. Yeah the guy may well have been dealing with a sale, but still, there's no need for that kind of crap.

My Classic Pro doesn't dive at all, the Vintage is a different matter, but it's easily managed!

If I didn't already own one, I'd have snapped this one up weeks ago, even before it was reduced to that bargain price.

As long as you go for either the Classic IV Pro (getting harder to find) or the Vintage Pro (now renamed the 60's bass), IMHO either one will wipe the floor with a Jazz all day long!

I had one of those late 70's Hondo monstrosities, it was my first ever bass back in 1980. It does look like a Hondo 2 neck, but the thing that throws it out is the headstock. All the Hondo 2' Ps with the Fender style Headstock had a flat heel, it wasn't until Hondo changed the shape of their headstocks that they changed the shape of the heel to the more traditional curved shape.

I bought a Hercules stand off of Russ, a nice easy transaction posted Thursday arrived the day after.

I'd have had this if it was for sale two weeks ago! It looks more like a JV neck, though the machine heads aren't right and I don't see a hole for a rear strap button, my 83 JV had one! Did they discontinue that and change the Machine heads on the later JV's? I also had a 1985 SQ in 1987, it had the same machine heads as this, and truss rod access at the heel, but it also had a plugged tear drop on the front of the headstock and a skunk stripe.

I clearly stated the reasons why I don't like the song, so why would you think I'd have even entertained the idea of learning to play it?
