Do Re Me, So Far So Good - Carter USM

I've seen pictures of him with what looked like a black one on Facebook. There was a debate as to whether it was actually black or just the red looking black under certain stage lights. Hook himself answered clearing the matter up, but I can't remember whats his answer was now. Not a lot of of help eh? 😁

(Un😉)surprisingly @AndyTravis didn't hang on to the Marathon long so it now resides with me, keeping it's younger nephew, the Eastwood, company. These Marathons really are fantastic basses. I've put 55-110 D'Addario NYXLs on and it is sooooo punchy. It really cuts through. 😎 Most of the pictures in this thread have been lost so it would be great to see any members Shergolds, or Haymans again.

I like that, looks great. 😎

Brand New Cadillac - The Clash, or that Alvin Stardust prototype that did the original.

Wow! In at the deep end. Are you going fretless or are you refretting it? Either way, best of luck. I'll look forward to seeing the progress.

Where do I pay? WHERE DO I PAY!?

I have invented a plate to be used to in the conjunction with high mass bridges called a 'tone mirror'. It screws onto the rear of your bass directly in line with the bridge and reflects vibrations back to the bridge, returning 100% of energy back into the string, creating an infinite energy loop so effective that I have to use an Ebow to tame it... ...honest.

In thirty years of gigging I have never played Mustang Sally. I may not be rich and famous but this has to be an achievement.

I bought three of these on ebay a couple of months ago. They're really quite good, not the best but as long as you do everything up tight and don't abuse them they'll be fine I think. I've can't remember if I made an offer or the seller sent me an email offer (stick it in the your watched list and they quite often do) but I paid £50.25, so £16.75 each. An absolute bargain.

The Night - Frankie Valli

Danelectro Longhorn top button is in the end of the body as per that link and it does make getting a strap on (pack it in) a little difficult. Once there it doesn't want to slip off though, and your bass being heavier would just secure it tighter. I have a couple where the top button is in the heel of the neck, which would bring yours forward another centimeter or two, but they are set neck and the heel is deeper more like an acoustic. Would a button in the neck heel put too much stress on the relatively thin amount of wood?

I didn't realise he was touring at the mo. I've love an Alice Cooper gig.

Some Girls Are Bigger Than Others - The Smiths

Policy of Truth - Depeche Mode

Too late now but I've seen some people fit a banjo arm rest on hollow bodies to alleviate this problem. It doesn't do anything for looks IMO. Rickenbacker 4005 (single bound) has a nice comfy contour. A banjo arm rest is cheaper though. 😉

Ooh, they look rather GET THE ORANGE ONE nice.

Not even an Ibanez Iceman? 😁
