  1. Steves lacquers are great as they drybto a hard shine, unlike some other manufacturers profucts. Ive got a load of cans from Steve for my own next project.
  2. Ive used Thomann numerous times (the most recent being last week). Every time they've been excellent. Very quick to get the items despatched, and they supply tracking details so you can follow your items progress.
  3. Marc runs this pizzeria in Whitchurch Village - http://www.pizzeriavillaggio.co.uk/ and yes, he's a drummer. They feature live music, often with Marc playing
  4. Ha. Ha. Ha. Good. For, you. Mate! Don't. Listen. To, me. - If. My. Past. Choices. In. Life. Are. Anything. To. By. Then. I. Wouldn't. Suggest. Anyone. Listened. To. My. Opinion. Either! Ha. Ha. Ha.
  5. It's. A. Reissue. Of. An. Oddball. Bass. Which. Was. A. Commercial. Failure. When. It. Was. First. Released. Due. To. Its. Unflattering. Looks. And. Muddy. Boxy. Sound.
  6. That's not Thomann's fault, it's the joy of UK chatges - I it's a pain in yhe butt! incidentally, havr you reviewed your bass on Thomanns site? You get a credit bouvher for doing it. I reviewed a bunch of bits the other day, for a case, pickguard screws, thumb rest, neck screws, string guide and a chrome pickup cover. The next day I received an email from them giving me a 50 Euro credit notebto be used up to 31/12/13 - result!!!!!
  7. I never think about it when I'm playing. I suppose it's down to developing an internal clock over the years, just reacting to the rhythm of the track.
  8. I usa an Aguilar DB680 preamp through a 1,200 watt power amp, into Aguilar DB410 cabs. Sounds nice.
  9. I always take a towel and liquid soap in my bag - so I can wash mybhands prior to gojng on stage. It's increfibke how grubby your hands get setiing up your equipment.
  10. He's great. I bought Mullard valves for a guitar amp and a full set of vintage NOS valves for my Ampeg Portaflex. Really great advice and delivery.
  11. Guy Pratt grooving in a Chic-tastic mode! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TSjl8ZjjAGg&sns=em
  12. Martin has made me 8 Sei basses so far. He's great - one of the truly "good guys".
  13. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ubH7dLJJiE&feature=youtube_gdata_player
  14. Here's the Better Then Therapy video about the rehearsals for the Police reunion tour. Great stuff (it was included in the 4 disc CD / DVD Certifiable package. (Sorry, I don't know how to embed the YouTube link. Any suggestions?). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Vx0H3ZbGmk&feature=youtube_gdata_player
  15. Fabulous video. I've actualky got that Tokyo gig on DVD. It's great seeing the songs performed live as a 3 piece again. Sting still sounds great.
  16. They're great. I ordered a vintage style Fender jazz bass case from them yesterday, as well as a load of other bits and pieces. Ive also used them in the past and have always had fantastic service from them. The routine is: You place your order. You instantly get an email confirmation that it's been received. When the order has been processed, they send you another email confirming it's on its way. This email will also contain a tracking link. You can then follow your orders progress as it makes its way to you. My experience has been that delivery from Thomann in Germany to Scotland (where I live) takes 3 working days.
  17. Ah, Call Me by Go West - Pino Palladino providing yet another great bass line.
  18. Sad news, but it's reassuring to know that his business will continue to operate.
  19. Yup, you just need to grit your teeth and pay the fee mate. No fun, as I know from my own experience.
  20. I bought a couple of Jaco CDs from Iain, which arrived safe and sound, and very quickly. Thanks again mate Kevin
  21. I was going to bid on that, untilni noticed that the seller had listed another one using the exact same details and photos - seemed a bit odd to me http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=161087069962
  22. I've ueed them for a few stateside deliveries (both to, and from, the states), and they've always been great
  23. Try these guys http://www.wedelivertheworld.co.uk/quote/index.php
