  1. I’ve just lost my eyesight ... that is vile
  2. Via eBay - they were fine
  3. Jimmy was also a wealthy and very litigious man, protected by people at the Beeb
  4. There is a reason for the bakers dozen ...
  5. I used to think ups were untouchably fabulous but this year they lost a parcel and faked the proof. Shutl sided with them but buyer insisted it was not her signature. Finally shutl agreed to start a trace and magically the parcel actually turned up at her door 24 hours later. Hermes managed to damage and THEN lose a parcel sent via shutl. It took nine weeks of pushing to get shutl to process my claim, they finally claimed they didn’t have a PayPal Id to refund me, but they did seem to be able to use one to bill me with in the meantime. Utterly useless.
  6. Oohh my old stamping ground
  7. Yes toe tally f ucked
  8. You have a reputation for tact ?
  9. What kind of lame donkey relic job is that ? Hit it with a bunch of keys from five storeys up - none of this slight abrasion rubbish
  10. You said it dude, colour me converted ...
  11. I did that - then I reliced it anyway
  12. It comes up every few weeks and just like the p bass debate, I don’t think anyone is going to change their mind
  13. There are two concurrent threads about this going on 😴
  14. Sorry I was just teasing you, I should have added emotes but yes I agree
  15. Surely it’s instead lamb dressed as mutton so exactly the opposite ?
  16. Me too, it was in a bass lesson with my teacher playing telecaster. I was totally in rapture and this is why i don’t mind 12 bar
  17. I reliced my bass and comments were generally favourable which means I did a reasonable job. I didn’t do it wanting approval but validation is nice. It was a heavy relic job - it’s a finish just like any other, I give you the recent Matt finishes from fender
  18. I have no idea if it sounds like a stingray but it’s feels solid and well made and the sound it makes is unlike a p bass. It is a good sound
  19. I’ve got an est96a in yellow/honey with maple and its awesome. Batteries last forever although a less fiddly compartment would be nice
  20. That’s the one. If you read the first post you’ll see I was inspired by watching the man himself playing dancing queen shortly before his death
  21. The bass I built is intended as a tribute to him, he is to my mind exactly what a bass player should be
  22. He was heavily into Swedish folk also. He originally auditioned for benny as a singer in a band called the hootenanny singers. Bass hero of mine
  23. No, that’s an early fender logo muppet
  24. No your English is fine - everyone makes small mistakes in foreign languages. I had to work in German for years and people were always correcting me in minor errors . If no one tells you you do not learn. English is really hard
