  1. Pressure Drop - Toots and the Maytals / The Clash
  2. Yeah, that would make quite a noise, as would using those frets. Let's go with delusional idiot then... as you were. 😄
  3. Someone should incorporate a pickup into the heel of a neck, so that the last two frets are also humbucker rails, and then have series/parallel/single coil switching. Absolute genius or delusional idiot? You decide.
  4. I've got a pair of HB uke basses, fretted and fretless. Both bought as 'Dekos' for just under £30 each a few years ago. Both had no faults other than needing the piezos seating properly. I think one needed a slip of paper putting under the E string side to increase the pressure to get an even output. I always look at it as part of a set up on piezo saddle bridges, a little fine tuning by moving the piezo strip or adding a paper/card shim to even up the output from all strings. You'd think Thomann would've sorted this issue by now though, as they must have had loads sent back over the years. The Hofner looks cool. 😎👍
  5. I really like the Entwistle budget P's. PBXN (neodymium) for modern aggressive tones, very similar to the Seymour Duncan Quarter Pound. Or PBX (ceramic) for a more vintage tone. Or Tonerider (alnico) for proper vintage tone. All a similar price and very good value for money.
  6. Money's Too Tight To Mention - The Valentine Brothers
  7. You Don't Bring Me Flowers - Neil Diamond and Babs again.
  8. Only the most hopeless of amateurs would respray a guitar without first keying up the original finish, if not removing it completely. Is it worth trying to remove the geen/blue paint in the hope that a Mr. H. Amateur has left a lovely, glossy, original finish underneath? I'd guess not. If you're not prepared to refinish the guitar, then I'd leave well alone. Just my 2p.
  9. I think Colleen Rooney asked Noel to sign Wayne's Gibson. So Noel stripped it down dunked it in a bucket of sky blue emulsion and signed it 'Happy Birthday Spongebob, next time you want something signing send us round your Bentley!' Or something like that. 🤣
  10. Everything's Gone Green - New Order
  11. I can't wait that long! Once I get these feelings, I've usually got about a week before I cave in. 😁 Edit - If anyone's toying with the idea of selling their coffee burst 734a, in the words of George Michael, I'm your man! 😉
  12. Yes. So not out of pocket or anything like that. Just be nice not to have try and buy tickets again as I reckon it will sell out fast, and then you have to turn to the overinflated, online touts. Maybe a priority system for folks who had ticket refunds from the other shows. Logistically, I imagine it would be a nightmare to do. A very minor, petty gripe I'll admit.
  13. I don't mean to beach, especially over something as sad as this, but it would've been nice if they could've found a way to honour the ticket holders for the London gigs that were due in a few weeks. I can foresee tickets for these new gigs being rediculous money, especially by the legalised touts, as it will quite possibly/likely be the last time they'll play.
  14. I hope so. I've just decided I 'need' a dark coffee burst 734a and if a new range come out, hopefully the current prices will drop.
  15. Well I watched episodes 1 & 2 last night and enjoyed it. When viewed as a stylised drama based on real events, rather than a documentary, I think it works. Yes it's all a little theatrical and might not portray events as they actually occurred, but it's Danny Boyle's version of Steve Jones' version of events, and everyone in and around that band has a different version of events to suit their agender. I've seen Quadrophenia and The Kinks story at the theatre and see this in a similar theatrical kind of way. It's entertainment not education.
  16. Well it turns out my son has a Disney+ subscription and I can download it on my Firestick. So it looks like I can give this a whirl after all.
  17. Beauty School Dropout - Less Than Jake
  18. Bartender and the Thief - Stereophonics
  19. Bras In Pocket - The Pretenders Damn it!! Too slow again. It's staying anyway now as it's still about theft (from Primark probably).
