  1. Just received my order. It appears to have come from Sweden rather than Ohio and there were not charges to pay. The tools look to be top quality and it only took eight days from ordering to delivery.
  2. It's the same workshop with the original workbench where Leo worked when it was the original Fender factory, so a lot of classic Fender design work was originated there too.
  3. It will be interesting to see whether Fender keeps Leo's workspace intact — or if his tools etc went in the skip, and whether they put the fullerton factory up for sale, keep it as a factory, or turn it into as museum or other public venue.
  4. Lightning Man — Nitzer Ebb
  5. You should be able to pick up a secondhand Fender PJ Player mustang for £500.
  6. Maybe take away the loopholes that enable billionaires to hoard their wealth whilst paying ignorant flagsh@ggers to spread the idea that immigrants are to blame for all of the problems they themselves have caused, but don't want to help solve.
  7. Bass Strings — Country Joe & The Fish
  8. Everyday I Write The Book — Elvis Costello
  9. Looney On The Bus — Roy Harper
  10. A fret rocker doesn't do the same job as a fret kisser. They look similar, however the fret kisser has a recessed diamond file in the centre of each edge.
  11. Okay - I choose the bass, which is "the best" due to all of the new components I used to rebuild it into a new bass.
  12. Best purchases were the Fender Precision to Jazz conversion neck, EB cobalt flatwounds, Hipshot lollipop tuners, ultra heavy knurled callaghan knobs, and EMG GZR P Pickup I used to transform my long-neglected unlined fretless bitza Precision into my favourite long scale bass to play. Worst buy was probably the HX FX pedal I bought several months ago, which I'm sure is an excellent piece of kit, but I've realised I don't really need it and haven't got around to actually trying to use it.
  13. It has been confirmed on Phillip McKnight’s podcast that FMIC (Fender) has bought G&L.
  14. Glad To Be Gay — Tom Robinson Band
  15. Bert's Apple Crumble — The Quik
  16. Planet Eclair — The B52's
  17. Mack The Knife — Louis Armstrong
  18. Thanks again — I'll get a set ordered.
  19. Thanks, that is very reassuring. Do you remember whether you cut them, or were able to use them full length?
