  1. ' Signed beautifully by the libertines' You know what they say about beauty?
  2. Thought there would have been more Saga Noren content by now in this thread...?
  3. Did you circulate Minutes of said Meeting to all those attending and the Building's H&S Rep too?
  4. ...and if they do a INAD and send it back, try and photo you picking the return up from the Courier and unwrapping it in one continuous video.
  5. Not majorly ( I don't count on Basschat) but it's on my bucket list. Can you make some suggestions for me please?
  6. I'd be tempted to ask them for photographic evidence that your parcel was outside of their T&C and thus put the onus on them to prove it. Then you could send your photos and blow them out of the water. Suspect their bottom line is suffering so they are just doing a little fishing ( sorry. that's 2 Brexit metaphors)
  7. You can see the screws for the bridge pickup reflecting on 'enlarge' and they are at the same spacing as the neck pickup, so its safe to assume they are intact.
  8. I've made nuts before with one of those bones you can buy for the dog for £1. Took about an hour and very satisfying. (assumes you have files and stuff)
  9. I just checked the size of the slot and bought a sheet or 2 from eBay in the colour I wanted. Cost a couple of £
  10. A BBOT ( look it up) is standard on so many Basses and as you say you could always upgrade if you were that bothered. A heavier duty one may not make much if any difference to the tone which is supposedly down to the woods......(runs for cover)!
  11. Long long time ago Terrorvision played a promo gig in either Virgin or HMV in Bradford upstairs. Not a huge fan but the singer liked them so we all went along and I found myself in front of the bass bin. I thought it would have been an acoustic session so did not bring ear plugs......I got punched in the chest with every note the bass played and my ears rang for about a week afterwards...... Years later met Lee Marklew as we both had Alfa 159 Sportwagons and only lived around 5 minutes away. At the time I was storing around a dozen high end bases (Aleva Copolla etc) for a local Bass Retailer prior to the LBS so gave him a quick tour of them all, it would have been rude not to!
  12. Yes, there are a few of us about but I had 10 seconds of thinking 'wow it could be me'.......
  13. Apparently they could not work out a way to record together as both refused to wear masks....
  14. Just caught the end of it having made a few entries myself and the penultimate Bass was a gorgeous Red 66 Jazz Bass (genuine). Scott said the first name of the winner which was 'Keith' and my heart stopped, he then said 'all the Keith's will be wondering if it is them' and then he said the guy's surname which was not mine.....still I missed the earlier giveaways so here's hoping! If anyone from BC did win in the draw, then well done !!
  15. Could I be extremely pedantic and suggest the thread be re-titled back to 'South West Bass Bash' as anyone who has not followed the saga will have a clue what all the acronyms are? Thus It may encourage someone who is not a member but in the SW to attend?🎸 BTW, the date is fine by me too.(BTW- by the way)!
