  1. Dancing Fool — Frank Zappa
  2. Jupiter Hollow — The Band
  3. I've recently upgraded from a pedaltrain with a caline power thing to a Harley benton spaceship power 50C board which has all the psu gubbins incorporated into it and is an absolute marvel. In addition to umpteen outputs for powering pedals, there's also a USB socket on the back for charging/powering phones/tablets.
  4. I have one of these — it was my first mustang. They are fantastic sounding basses, and I can confirm the neck feels a lot more like a jazz than my JMJ or vintera mustangs.
  5. I often discuss music with the missus — especially in the car when she asks me to change whatever album I've put on.
  6. Fiddle About - The Who
  7. Do we get to choose which cookies we are sent? If so I prefer the ones with chunky chocolate chips.
  8. Cheeky bu99er's listed it again https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/325825655879?hash=item4bdcb8f447:g:6dYAAOSw9O9lCf3N
  9. Back Road Into Town — Willie Hightower

  11. If the slugs are only humming when you're not touching the strings or bridge, this means that bridge ground wire is okay.
  12. I recently bought a new Classic Vibe Mustang guitar, and noticed that I could often hear a hum through the amp whenever I wasn't touching the strings or bridge. The first thing I do after buying a Squier or other inexpensive bass/guitar is replace the born-to-fail jack socket with a decent one so I opened it up and soldered in a Pure Tone socket. While I was in there I also protected the control cavity from slug infestation by lining it with 25mm self-adhesive copper anti-slug tape from amazon. After doing these two jobs, the hum was now totally gone, so I deduced from this that the previously heard noise was probably from slugs in the control cavity humming along with the music.
  13. Is there ever a valid reason to remove a serial number from a bass? I doubt it— The only reasons I can think of to do so are both dishonest: 1— to mask that the bass has been stolen, or 2 — To deceive a buyer into believing it is a different model from what it actually is. This is a prime example of the latter. You could attach the swing tag to a piece of cheese, but it won't turn it into a roadworn Fender bass.
