I'm sure I saw them somewhere too (maybe on TV) but seem to remember Sketch playing a Steinberger?

Got that album when it came out and loved the playing.

Nice bass related show tonight including Paul Turner playing with Sean Escoffrey and the minimal Bassist with Alabama Shakes.

Franz Ferdinand and Sparks have joined forces and call themselves FFS....FFS!

[sub]Was he driving a Honda Jazz [/sub][sub]or maybe a Citroen Saxa?[/sub]

Singer Mark Morrison has just had his laptop stolen. He is offering a hefty reward for "Return of the Mac"

I bet if you popped into your local music shop and asked for a set of Rotosounds for a 13 string bass they'd be shoving you out the door!

Worth £500? Bloody don't half lose their value....

Having disbanded Brothers Johnson in the 90's Brian went on to career with AC/DC and Boris went to Oxford. The rest, as they say, is history.

[sub]Head Hands and Feet are joining with The Average White Band to do a new version of "Pick Up The Pieces".[/sub]

Johnny Rivers is going to team up with The Damned to release "Wade on the Water".

Err, I thought the "Duncan Designed" pickups came as standard ( they did on the 5er I had of these) although they have been dropped now. Oh, and why are the pickups called "extras" in the listing title, most Basses I have bought have had them fitted as standard....?

This is the guy who sells Harley Benton's as "German Engineered" so you can hardly expect him to understand the lawsuit issues! Mind he did threaten me with a lawsuit when I suggested his HB's were possibly B Stock and/or Decos and he should declare it!

I gigged for 5 years+ with a small and light rig: MB LM11/111 and a Traveller 102 cab. Where this got overwhelmed ( which wasn't often) I was either DI'd or Lined Out into the PA. Simples.

Gutted that the Warwick Mini Thumb Deco ( and I guess the only genuine Deco on the list) is now Out of Stock!!!

That was one of Jim's early ones and from the location of the seller, a very ex member of this forum. I think they are having a laugh on the pricing mind....!

What are Deco "on request". Does that mean when one comes in they will send it on...?

Just seen BJ's first column in BGM. Well done! Not going to say any more, you'll just have to go out and buy it/read it in W H Smiths....

Aren't the TC Toneprint Amps/combos made in China anyway?

MInd, it's a lovely looking cover....

[quote name='6v6' timestamp='1430295638' post='2759863'] Finally got the amp back! It was repaired under warranty, eventually. Communication and turnaround time were pretty poor overall, but at least it's done. I won't be gigging without a backup from now on.. Even less impressive is that they've managed to muller half the screws holding the lid on by using the wrong size screwdriver [/quote] I'd be getting back to MSl about that if it was mine and asking for some new screws

60's Novelty Popsters and Punk Poets "The Scaffold" are teaming up with Starship for a reprise of their greatest hit.
