He sounds like a lot of work. But it has to be said, Crazy horses goes down well!

Mansons in Exeter have one for sale, saw it when I was down there last https://www.mansons.co.uk/product/pre-owned-1984-fender-performer-bass-burgundy-mist-11700

With the speaker it isn't that cheap when you consider that the BG250 208 is £250 with a 2x8 built in

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_is_dead Coincidence, no?

Pedantic point - there were no platinum selling albums in the 60s. Or most of the 70s.

Adults do that? Wow! I have never noticed that to be a fact. I expect people to be fairly flakey and make excuses. When they aren't, I am pleasantly surprised, but it isn't that often.

This is very close to home.

Interested in seeing that. I was a little tempted by the buttercream player jazz. Trying to get over my 65 jazz thoughts

Howabout sideways references, such as musical cues, such as the Black Sabbaths 'Devil Woman/cliff richard' breakdown in Lady Evil etc. There is a Sixx AM song with a section that is straight off God gave rock and roll to you/Kiss* as well, but I can't remember which bit * Yes I know it was someone else than kiss originally I think this is to Kiss,

Probably just the Ibanez SR2605. I can bring the CTM100 as that sounds nice. Oh and maybe a Roli Rise 49 if someone wants to see one.

When did this sneak out? https://www.zoom-na.com/products/guitar-bass-effects/bass/zoom-b1-four-b1x-four-bass-multi-effects-processors This seems like an ideal thing for a small pedalboard, with 5 effects (not sure what the 4 is for) Has it been out a while and I just missed it? Seems perfect for a lot of occasions

The standard is made in china and is quite a bit cheaper than the custom (but not currently available in 5 string)

Should be easy enough as long as you get the main theme in. But its busy,. Those groups in the videos, it always seemed like they were the sort of groups that are more fun to be in than listen to!

Because it was dead or because there was a fight?

haha - looked on his facebook page. That video has one comment - "Youre a f***n moron!" Yeh, he can't expect to sell it easily when he treated it like that! Shame it was fairly local

Almost certainly - there are probably more complaints on this forum about the gibson three point bridge than anything else.

I had one of those, it was nicked, I would love that back.

I didn't see the video, but I had looked at his facebook posts and he said about a month ago that he had intentionally thrown it from the stage and he was impressed that it didn't break, so i figured it was one to avoid.

Obviously a feature. We saw the police in 1983 reading festival. The ones at thames valley that is, a lot of our stuff got knicked. Surprisingly and quite pleasantly, we got most of it back and noone had to get any slappings (maybe the guy who knicked the stuff did, would have been ok with that).

I was sort of thinking about one. I don't really normally like fenders, and am not that bothered about vintage, but today I played a 1965 Jazz bass with flats on it, and TBH, it was one of the nicest fenders I had ever played, i would be more than happy to have something like that, but it was a little bit more money than I would want to pay (ok, rephrasing, it was 5x the amount I would like to pay!), and it occured to me it would be a bit of a liability, too expensive to take anywhere, but I wouldn't want to play with all the metal on and frankly the pots could do with replacing (and I know you can't do that sort of stuff)

Thats what I challenged. If you were ONLY in it for the money, you would be doing something other than gigging.

Its not your negativity. If I had had happen to me what happened to you, I don't think I would be as positive as you are!

Trust me, there is such a thing as bad publicity, for someone who did have them very much on the radar!

Relating to the other thread - you don't play the keyboards by any chance do you?

Its not true though, he says that, but he also says he lives to gig. So he is not only in it for the money!
