  1. Isn’t he taking his hands of the strings, whilst his other hand remains on the neck ?
  2. They don’t know the difference even the jazz ones are too small
  3. In my experience it takes time as people have the annoying habit of being polite and tolerant of “foreign people” learning their language and totally omit to point out grammatical errors. Muppets....
  4. For which bass ? Maybe someone has one spare...
  5. It’s not that bad honestly
  6. I never could get on with P basses when younger, now they work for me. You’re not alone
  7. Then she is a bigamist and should be jailed immediately. Unless she is an MP and solicitor in which case she can be married to you still from within a cell and continue her duties from there until released after a sentence of a week or so
  8. That’s a very good drawing of a sofa, and more so with crayons
  9. I honestly don’t think either player knew for certain about any given track. Motown often has each player record a version then they used the best one. Story from babbitt was of him and Jameson arguing in a bar about who had played on a tune they could hear on the juke box. Even they couldn’t tell when it was somewhat freshly done
  10. I read that also, in guitarist mag many years ago
  11. Wood expands and contracts - paint cracks off. I did my research looking at a lot of old fenders and looked at the way the grain sat in mine
  12. To clarify, “some good awful lot rubbish” cant that be said of any genre ?
  13. Three years to a higher court is actually pretty good going
  14. see my mod, you don't need to get the hang of anything except putting the pin in the right way
  15. but the OP describes the problems he had from doing this. If you try my modification, those are alleviated
  16. no, the House Of Lords judgement allowed only future royalty claims. Their decision on the delay in bringing a claim was found on the fact that no harm had been caused to the defendant because the complainant had take so long to act and that in the contrary, the defendant has been benefited in that time by a full share of the royalties. The loss due to delay fell only on the claimant
  17. yes, as long as you can prove co -authorship you can take as long as you like to claim, but don't ask for back royalties, only future shares are allowed. I do not honestly think that is fair, but their Lordships were unanimous in the House Of Lords judgement. It might be fairer to allow back royalties at some reduced rate to allow for declining future royalties
  18. The original sole beneficiary (A) has had all the benefit already that rightly belonged to someone else (the now-joint beneficary (ies) B) , should A be be allowed to keep it, or its proceeds ? That does not sound like justice. The complainant B has gone out on a financial limb to get what he believes to be a rightful share, and had convinced a court who have agreed that B has been short changed. If A is allowed to keep 10m£ when he only rightly deserved to get £5m that is unfair. B should be put into the place where they would have been . If A has to sell a yacht to achieve that so be it.
  19. It’s poly people usually just scratch away at the body and forget about the neck. I rounded the neck off using a metal bar and flaked some lacquer the front by the 20th fret and on the fretboard edges you can get an old look immediately by just rubbing away at the body with a fresh dish sponge (green side) and matting down the paint a bit. Rub a bit harder where your hand would rub or the strap would rub. The key is to think about it a bit and take it in gentle stages rather than to go all out with a belt sander
