This person does some really nice effects pedal demos, she also creates some beautiful music. https://m.youtube.com/user/buildingcastlegirl

That’s my point. The Steven Wilson gig was amazing, and only £30. My friend paid £58 for a three hour King Crimson show.

Stuff gets buried. Most people live safely in their own bubble of an existence. This kind of thing helps to say what’s still going on. That’s one of the purposes of art, to encourage discourse and grab people’s attention.

That’s an awful lot of money. How do they justify that? Their overheads aren’t going to be the same as a band playing the royal Albert hall for instance, which was the venue for the last big gig I attended when I saw Steven Wilson there two years ago. I think I paid about £30 for that. A friend of mine saw King Crimson at Birmingham symphony hall, that was £50 for a three hour show.

The Yamaha have a more natural sound, I’ve found the Rocket to be more suited to dance music or beats. The Adams are excellent.

I’m guessing the daily heil will be leading the way in condemning him.

Email Bass Direct, they might be able to order a set for you. They’ve managed to get various 6 string sets in for me over the years.

If you do manage to find it, please be sure to let me know.

Thé guitar sounds out of tune too.

Tell them to do one.

Don’t the scratch plates have holes drilled in them?

I went to the Hard Rock Cafe once. I don’t usually go to that kind of place, they’re too busy and noisy, but I was talked into it by my brother, and my nephew wanted to go, ‘it's full of guitars, you’ll love it’ they said. It was but I didn’t. I hadn’t heard of most of the bands or musicians, I think in most cases the link to them was pretty tenuous. I can see the social history side of it, with the other exhibits. Particularly if you were around then, it’s nostalgic I guess.

A ship.

I’m the youngest by about thirty years in the jazz thing I sometimes play for. It’s only relevant if it’s important for you or them, otherwise it’s not.

It’s only a band. It doesn’t sound like he came across as being a potential axe murderer. So just explain to him. Good points, bad points, then finish off with a good point, and tell him that you’ll keep him in mind if you hear of anyone looking for someone. Make the last good point musical too, he probably already knows he’s a nice guy.

I’ve never heard of them tbh. What happened to it, why is it damaged?

Isn’t just a bass though at the end of the day? I must be missing something 😁.

The one big thing I was taught at uni is the requirement to have what they called a portfolio of skills, so you earning from playing, teaching, arranging, maybe writing too. It’s all music, I don’t get up at 7am and spend all day working in a shop or factory. Yesterday I was at uni for a PhD thing, yesterday evening I was teaching, right now I’m doing PhD work, this afternoon I’m teaching. There’s very few people I can think of that only play.

Isn’t your story also a case of checking your gear regularly? I’m guessing the jack socket is held on by a nut and washer that had come loose, or fallen off?

I’ve owned a few American built fenders, they’ve all been quite badly built. The main thing has been the neck pocket, everyone has looked like the guy doing it sneezed as he either put the router in in, or took it out.

Yeah, I’ve had a Japanese 4 string version, it was far better made.

That’s my point about the quality of American instruments.
