I get the 'Iggle Piggle' song stuck in my head..........nearly as bad as Peppa.

...well that ain’t what I’m playing lol. Then again we’ve keyed it down and I ain’t going 5 string on it! Might have to use the Rick instead of my usual Mustang....

I hope you’re being ironicalistic on that...just about to bring that into the Glam set and I feel my fingers are gonna melt by the end.....

Can’t be completely sure Danny but I believe the finish on my roasted neck is standard oil/wax, the lacquer is on the headstock only. I don’t mind the oil wax on mine as the board is ebony not maple.

For some reason I don’t mind it so much on my roasted neck PDN that has an ebony board but maple/maple - I agree with you. I think gloss is standard on the classics but then you end up with the slab body?

Great to have my Sterling back after its visit to Mr Shuker. I wasn’t keen on the bland neck (maple board wax/oil jobbie) so after a conversation with DeeDee the bass was taken into the heart of the Peak District. Very happy with the work, a nice vintage tint gloss and stainless frets - looks awesome.

Very nice and would be just the job, sadly wont fit the MW due to the humbucker.

Thanks for the thread guys. I'm currently happy with the pg on my 1999-2002 CIJ Mustang but would really like a replacement for my Mikey Way sig, it could do with blinging up from the b/w/b.

Nothing mate, free to a good home. Pm me your address

The bass is a shrunken Precision and the ‘wig’ really is John’s hair...

Sorry but I couldn’t face putting it on....too many painful memories. Here it is adorning a forlorn Mustang. Oh the shame....

I'm afraid that it was so hideous that it never made it to a gig.....I will don once more for posterity and photo taking though so you can see what you're letting yourself in for

H......I've got a JD wig that I'm not using in Glam Fever - It's seriously hideous.

Not so much. If it's a rosewood board (or pau ferro or the like) I'd give it a little lemon oil if it looks dry, other than that nothing at all.

Ahh......it'll be going back then?

Hope you have a succession plan Chris or it'll be chaos I tell you, CHAOS!

The band on that page was an earlier incarnation. The bass player left due to health reasons and I went in as a dep over 2 years ago and somehow never left lol 😂. The GF live page was put together from about 12 months back and other than wig changes the line up is the same (oh and I’m no longer a Bay City Roller in the second set).

We do Dave, it’s Glam Fever Live. Let me know if you’re set up on FB. I know you’ll enjoy it as much as we do, it’s good to be in a band where you don’t have to take yourself too seriously - quite hard anyway when you’re dancing about wearing a flashing police helmet. We don’t have anything set up north of the border, but may look at a ‘mini tour’ at some point.

Ahhhh, the bitter sting of the 'disappointed look'. The doghouse for you m'lad.

But we have to do it Ped, the 'Gods of Bass' force us to against our will...... Well that's what I tell Swmbo.

Glad you're enjoying the 'Glam' side Dave, I'm into my 3rd year now with Glam Fever and it shows no sign of slowing down on the fun side. I did think about growing me hair so that I didn't have to bother with wigs but couldn't face that 'between time' when the hair was not long enough but irritated under the wig. First world problems eh If you get down Yorkshire way you'll have to let us know, us 'Glam Bands' tend to support each other.

Hope you get used to the 'wig itch'..........took me about a year, seems strange when I play on stage without it now lol!

That looks like the 'backyard' of the Cutlers? Great venue.

Think there’s an h-bar somewhere?
