  1. One day I will have time for double bass
  2. I disagree - I just love the sound and feel, accompanied or not it took a squier vm p to change my mind but as soon as I’d sold it on for a fat profit (bought as “parts” and then fettled back to life) I put the money towards a Bass Doc precision
  3. @Deeper and down i recommend Folsom Prison Blues as its dead easy and you can jazz it up - I add some extra notes every fourth bar to make a "clack" effect like railroad tracks. Its the first song I played live and the crowd went mental. #satisfying Also Wicked Game - Chris Isaak - I have a homemade tab for this if it will help/.
  4. very tastefully done and she can sing too.
  5. thank you but its little one's birthday and she loves hotels.
  6. you called Mandy a hoot above, and I, unaware of the advertising history of Paultons and its use of "hoot", assumed Steve Browning had missed his quote @Steve Browning apologies, my lack of knowledge there, you were not wrong at all.
  7. steady on there, @wateroftyne .....
  8. intended for @wateroftyne perhaps ? I don't recall any characters in Peppa Pig called Mandy (Wendy Wolf maybe)
  9. @super al both - DD#2 loves peppa pig and we are staying in southampton hilton
  10. I'm going there in about a month...
  11. @dannybuoy I had the same experience with exactly that bass - mine was white.
  12. picture might be a good idea ?
  13. @maxfox you're doing just fine. English is complicated
  14. Indeed it does make sense fess up time: these are stated to be from a geddy lee bass. I have no reason to disbelieve it
  15. just take the shine off with some wirewool , or the green/rough side of a pan scourer .
  16. well, if I'd said "phwoarr nice ti..." I could understand the fuss and as the father of two stunningly pretty little girls, agree, but I didn't. if you type @ and wait a moment you get a list of users to suit and you can drill down. Make sure you click on their avatar and the link goes orange. They then get a nudge to look. Bit like facebook
  17. steady on there, you'll get the same treatment from the misogyny police that I did for suggesting that one of @wateroftyne 's fellow performers was cute
  18. Just shield it with foil - simples
  19. I've bought some jazz bass pickups on ebay. They have codes 048612 & 048613 underneath which I know are fender codes for the bobbins - they have "59" or "se" handwritten on in white (its a little unclear) Standard spec for US jazz is allegedly Neck 8.3 kohm and Bridge 7.8kOhm they look fine visually I used a multi-meter and measured at the soldered contacts neck 6.9 k Ohm bridge 7.57 k Ohm can anyone tell me what the effect of the resistances being reversed (ie relatively between the two positions) is ? If I've measured wrongly please advise where I should correct my technique - I used the 20 kOhm range. thanks
  20. not all MIM pickups are created equal look underneath and you'll find codes to look up
  21. actually I quite like that strat. Those are quite brave designs (I particularly like the pink les paul) although I do prefer the look of the epiphones slightly
  22. I forgot “dancing Queen “with ABBA @4000 thinking on same lines I see
  23. I too would choose suspicious minds. @Beedster Also Folsom Prison Blues with Johnny Cash - I totally flew playing this alone with an acoustic guitarist and it would just be ace playing this with Johnny Cash if he were less dead. Crowd went mental.
  24. i think Duck only smoked a pipe in the Blues Brothers movie.
  25. "change" also
