police squad

when I order mine, they'll be white with a red front and oxblood grill cloth

I ordered a P neck from eyparts in hong kong. http://www.eyguitarmusic.com/ cheap as chips and it is very nice. It is fretless and a maple board (which they dont do anymore) I think custom world guitars sell the same necks. Also, Northwest guitars make fabulous guitar necks and bodies (according to the guy who works on my gear) and they have started doing bass stuff http://www.northwestguitars.co.uk/all-necks/

well done, enjoy

I saw Meatloaf on his farewell tour. He was shockingly bad. Voice is totally knackered. The band were fabulous

yep, currently playing me up. Rest it as much as you can. Mine's a lot better than a couple of weeks ago and I've got 2 gigs this weekend, so hopefully it won't get too aggravated

In order to make the right decision, you really need to try them both. It's a pain but it's the best thing to do

yep, good luck. Be yourself and if you can sing, chuck in some backing vocals.

yep the Dee Dee looks great. I have a MIM Steve Harris WHUFC bass and the quality is as good as anything I've seen from the USA. So don't knock modern MIM stuff

Helium in your cab will give you a serious case of GAS!!!!!!

Decided to gig my new (it's been replaced under warranty) Fender Steve Harris WHUFC bass, yesterday (just after the hammers game on BT sport, They loved it in the pub) Tuned it up, left it against the amp (as you do ) not much treble comes from this bass, so I hit the ultra hi button on the ampeg, Yep, sounds about right. First song F8ck!!!! The action was WAAAAYYY too low for the way I hit the strings. Clank, Clank, duff duff. Shocking. So after 2 songs, I apologise to the crowd, citing my problems on another typical West Ham performance. I find the allen key for the bridge and crank up the E. But the allen key only fitted one side of the saddle. In Fender's error, they had put a different allen bolt in one side. But, it was enough to finish the first set and then, properly tweak everything. I must say, the 2nd set was ace. Maple neck P basses have a certain 'quack' to their sound and this bass with it's maple body, sustains like something from Spinal Tap. I have this bass strung with rounds, (the flats were never put on it, they're in the case though) and even with rounds I can hear the Steve Harris sound.

and they were awesome. Jack Bessant on bass. Late 70s P bass with a Mesa 400 watt head into an ampeg 8x10. oh my!! It was packed in there and for the first time since I was a kid, I got down the front early (and I mean, the front). Lasted about 25 minutes, it was too hot. What a band, if you haven't seen them, just do it.

I've got one of those and it's now wearing Grovers

the TB has the better pickups in it

Booking gigs is a thankless task. I've been doing it for nearly 30 years (on and off). I now play in a very established local band but it's the slightly younger members that struggle with remembering to tell me when they can't gig. (often it's the G/F that decides this lol) I do have deps lined up but I'd always rather take the complete band out. Communication is the key. I do keep asking them, what dates can't you do etc.

Ian had a wanted ad, for some machine heads. I contacted him and he swiftly responded and did everything he said he would. Highly recommended, easy transaction. Nice one Ian cheers

a ha! He's been in touch and he's seems very helpful etc. I fancy a Fenderbird as I've got a gig coming up playing as a Who tribute

me too, I love rotosound strings. I use roto yellow 10s on all my guitars and swing bass rs66 on my basses, except my hofner which has la bella deep talking bass. I used to work in a music shop anf always found the rotosound team great. Anybody remember the Spacer strings. Different coloured silks and a black anodised finish, so they said,

as JT said. Add another sub later on, they come up on evil bay from time to time. I have been using KSC K12 and 2 x sub for about 4 years now. Love em. Great sound and not too bad to move about either. Allan & Heath desk. FX22 I think

what Bertbass says.
