  1. I have a b-stock Fender GTX-7 pedal from Thomann incoming for my son's GTX50 amp. I'm hoping that it'll be in good condition but I believe it should be easy to return if there is any issue.
  2. Go Now — Bessie Banks
  3. Shake Me, Wake Me When It's Over — The Four Tops
  4. I don't have any connection with the seller, but I have just had one of these delivered, and I imagine others here might benefit from one of these. I wouldn't tempt fate by putting my Gibson Thunderbird or JMJ Mustangs directly on it, but any non-nitrocellulose finished instruments should be fine against the rubbery bits. When I ordered mine I missed that the listing has a 'make offer' button, so it might be possible to get quid or two discount off the already very reasonable price of £21.50. The stand is well made, quick & easy to assemble, and has enabled me to tidy up my haphazard pile of guitars & basses (in gigbags). I'm thinking about ordering a second one. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/335044048602 Here is my new stand with with a Strat, a tele thinline, a harley benton doublecut LP, a mustang guitar, four mustang basses, and a Bass VI all in their gigbags.

  8. I played the rock garden back in the day. Some b'stard nicked my favourite 80s glow in the dark curly cable during change over after our set. You had to use the venue's drumkit, amps & PA and were not allowed to bring your own gear beyond guitars/bass/keys/pedals. I can't remember the financial details but I'm sure we didn't make a profit. We also played the Bull & Gate a few times in the same era, but I don't remember the financial details for that either.
  9. I don't know about the Blackstar, but If the aim is to spend as little as possible on a bass practice amp, I would go for this Ashdown Tourbus 10 -> https://www.cashconverters.co.uk/shop/music-tv--video/musical-instruments/amps--stage-equipment/guitar-amplifier/046100161066 If the budget is (quite) a bit more I'd look for a secondhand Roland MicroCube Bass RX, which is what I have and use daily, including with my NS-Design CR-5M EUB.
  10. This Must Be The Plaice — Talking Heads
  11. Where Is She? — The Residents
  12. Me too — I use the 40 - 60 - 70 - 95 (blue) set on my 3 × Epiphone Vintage Pro + a Gibson non-reverse Thunderbirds

  16. But that's the best kind of tweeter

  19. Not a colour I would be able to live with.

  22. Seventeen — Sex Pistols
  23. Tears Like Blood — Pure Retribution
  24. I'm a sucker for a maple fingerboard on a Fender, and of the player mustang basses, this and black with maple, are the only finishes that I like enough to consider buying, and this came up at a price I'm happy with before a nice black one. The grain and matching of the individual pieces on the body of this one are very good as well, although it doesn't show too well on my snapshots. In fact, the matching is so good that you have to look very closely at it to realise it isn't a one-piece body.
