  1. Because they can’t cope with you relentlessly banging on the door all day screaming “I need a hit, man, deal me sum dat BB414 … I need a (insert colour de jour here) one” and now they have PTSD?
  2. True but you do have a revolving front door and stick a deli counter ticket to each bass. Also some of them have whispered to me about the post-it note you keep on your desk with the opening hours for cash converters on it - they find it a touch intimidating
  3. Yes, to the marketplace … 😛
  4. Not saying it …. NOT saying it …
  5. Greg’s bass shed gets my vote @greghagger
  6. For the dubious privilege of them picking a neck off a different shelf ? They used to allow jazz bass profile necks to be ordered
  7. Turmeric takes a month or so to start showing benefit - it’s not instant keeping your fingers warm such as with fingerless gloves helps
  8. @Obrienp get the stuff with black pepper extract as that boosts absorption … Amazon or eBay or Holland and Barrett
  9. He’d do a lot better with turmeric extract
  10. When I reliced my bass I left everything metal well alone
  11. They might be able to signpost you to replacements. @Reggaebass seems to remember the same event as me
  12. Glue and pressure ? @Andyjr1515
  13. I’ve never understood why someone selling or owning a 700£ bass from new wouldn’t think of putting a smear of Vaseline on those threads; I recall ages ago someone from limelight saying here at BC that screws seizing was an effect of the relic process. Why not unscrew the intonation screws or grub screws a bit when it’s freshly done and put some Vaseline on ? That’s a whole five minutes spent
  14. That plate is def after market based on the pattern and it’s fit to the bass (very poor fit around lower horn) and I think the burst looks a bit odd the action looks very high - my guess would be that it’s a decent bitsa - not even a whole Mex
  15. Seriously - back door Santa ?
  16. Guy on far right is very much too blond
  17. That they need big socks ?
  18. Well, he could be forgiven for thinki… DOH!
  19. Thanks - very much an old style of playing glad I put some of that on my relic p
  20. It’s got that weird middle top rubout on the sunburst where your hands etc never touch - how does that wear occur?
  21. Tsk tsk - now that’s offensive blah blah …
  22. My 0.02 is that women are generally less strong but I’d never call them weaker tal wilkemfield is only normal sized but manages a whole gig on a full sized bass and good luck to her. AC is possibly not intending his comment to be taken generally but perhaps specifically with regard to his context of an all-male band?
  23. Post pictures - that kind of renovation happens all the time here
  24. Excuse my ignorance but why ?
  25. -1? That’s one quieter…
