I really just don't like the guy, met him once and he was thoroughly unpleasant. He's not that good a player and (go on, do this) a quick search on his name in Google images just seems to show hundreds of the same photo...the same smug look on his face, a la; [i]I'm-not-looking-at-my-bass-and-you-know-I-think-I-just-cracked-out-a-very-smelly-fart-as-well[/i]. Right place, right time I suppose. Dee Dee? At least the guy played and effing Precision. Maybe I'm just tired. P [/quote] Nancy, you are not a big fan of Mr Clayton....I can sense these things!

[quote name='namefail' timestamp='1410076608' post='2545789'] Perhaps you were, iirc this track is credited to have Glaswegian backing vocals. Rush Exit Stage Left 1981 Closer to the Heart [url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Mw_c9U7p14"]https://www.youtube....h?v=4Mw_c9U7p14[/url] [/quote] Unfortunately I wasn't there! :-(

Totally agree...NM was a very big influence on me during that classic Whitesnake era. Superb bassist. I would love to have played with Rush during the Moving pictures tour that spawned "Exit...stage left!

Enjoy it...gigging is great!

[quote name='ambient' timestamp='1409875229' post='2544317'] I've played both and the Japanese one was better constructed than the USA one . [/quote] Me too.

[quote name='stingrayPete1977' timestamp='1408818829' post='2533841'] Bump, nobody got an opinion on these? [/quote] I almost bought one a while ago, the most comfortable 35" scale 5 string bass that I have ever played.

[quote name='steviedee' timestamp='1409258964' post='2538144'] Ha ha the bloke also had a Wal defretted identical to mine in a funky red Wal case in his cupboard, he wasn't selling that tho. [/quote] He has good taste! (like you )

[quote name='steviedee' timestamp='1409258740' post='2538137'] Thanks it really is great. I saw it advertised locally and nipped up to see it and loved it. [/quote] Wish I had seen it first

This is a gig that I truly I would have loved to have witnessed.

Beautiful bass, that is a wonderful acquisition well done.

Very cool!

[quote name='SaxyBassist' timestamp='1408812056' post='2533757'] Yes sadly this is true, thanks to so called austerity punishing the poor for being poor [/quote] We are all in it together...apparently.

[quote name='xilddx' timestamp='1408811966' post='2533755'] Your eyes and ears are closed if you think that doesn't happen now, all over the uk. [/quote] I am sure it happens now to an extent in all areas of the UK...but many of the people living near me on benefits own Ipads and iphones. I wish I could afford one of those

[quote name='JTUK' timestamp='1408704566' post='2532689'] Not really surprised as we seem to be breeding a society that expects and demands so much. The sense of fariness is out the window and it is a free-for-all where people will take what they want and if someone is stupid enough to let them take it, then more fool them. And they say we evolve..??? [/quote] Sadly this often appears to be the case. I remember struggling as a child...we were dirt poor like all other working class people were, I wore "hand me downs" with patches on the knees and elbows of my clothes. We used to wake up during the winter with ice on the inside of our windows as we had no heating. This generation don't know hunger.

Great basses...very underrated. Love the Foundation - nice one!

[quote name='Badass' timestamp='1408641770' post='2532179'] Great stuff, many thanks....Just wish I had the money a buy one. [/quote] Had one but moved it on....it just wasn't for me.

[quote name='Dazed' timestamp='1408455834' post='2530334'] The bass gallery has a CT replica / Tribute if I recall. [/quote] I had that bass built for me....it is a good bass.
