  1. Nice 👍
  2. And if she came home with a £20k handbag ? There are limits
  3. Wait until payday and I’ll be in touch
  4. That kind of depends upon what kind of wife-related outcome you’d like when factored against the siren call of GAS if she’s a keeper you need to steer clear of wood-based purchases that are excessive in value
  5. Totally I played zombie recently at an OM and had to throw in a 6 quarter note bar as I’d overstayed on the previous chord. Still finished on time with a sustained open E to the pleasant surprise of the two acoustic guitards, one of whom shouted me to the crowd and the other fist bumped me. Personally I think the only bit that went right was that last note and that only by chance. Crowd went nuts which was a pleasant surprise theyre used to playing acoustic unsupported so they obviously have ridiculously low standards
  6. Yes totally. I think im Right in saying that his jazz bass that day is the same one as the New years Day video
  7. He always does that, they are used to it. I thought it was a masterpiece of showmanship. The riff does vary a bit.
  8. She can always get another husband with cheaper hobbies
  9. The real 63 was breathed on by Leo and touched by genuine American pixies and also was made of magic wood ✨ the later bass was made after leo left the building and is therefore not made of magic wood It will therefore sound rubbish by comparison 🗑️
  10. No drummer, it’s an om. Backing acoustic guitards, yes even on sanctuary (his version is quite gentle) so I should really resist the urge to smack the ampeg svt patch to 11
  11. Sweet home Alabama, dreams (fleet wood Mac version), Dakota, sanctuary it's only open mic night version, fortunately and fairly basic compared to you lot. Sadly available time for practice means only fairly simple songs
  12. You only need half of those If you got rid of everything fret wise above the octave and every part of a fret on the two treble strings, you could make it a hybrid fretted/fretless and do all the pointless noodling on the bits real bass players don’t use 👍 #joking
  13. I have one of these and it’s very good. I don’t fiddle with the controls much, tending to leave it in passive mode in the usual 60:40 jazz pup mix but I do like the string spacing
  14. My local riff-raff ( rupūžės )would not appreciate the subtlety
  15. Confession time I’d just learned it whilst waiting to go on and it was the only thing that popped into my head when the host pointed at me and said “bass solo!”
  16. Just play a blues bass line. I picked the walking section from Cold Day in Hell - should be easy for a man of your talents
  17. Yes just teasing 👍
  18. Lego brick pot?
  19. I hope they aren’t guitards who “ can play a bit of bass but only with a pick”
  20. You have bass solos? I thought these were the stuff of legend .. a unicorn appeared, wearing a trilby hat, and then it was my turn to solo kind of thing 🦄
  21. Lady who runs my local OM night sungs professionally, and plays guitar and piano well. One night she admitted a love of The Chain. It’s a start… she asked me to recommend a bass so since she’s quite petite I recommended a short scale jazz or Harley Benton beatle bass it’s become a bit of a running joke now that she’s asks me to sound check or solo and I play the chain corruption starts here glad that you chaps had a good time, sadly diy commitments (brick paving in a heat wave ffs) stopped me but maybe next time
  22. She sounds automatically awesome edit: and I don’t even know her.
  23. Just go and buy it before I do, okay ? JFDI and save me from poverty 🙏 PLEASE If you don’t like it you can always sell it on here for at least £275. Maybe buy a pint with the profit
