Surely it’s instead lamb dressed as mutton so exactly the opposite ?

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

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

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

I’ve got an est96a in yellow/honey with maple and its awesome. Batteries last forever although a less fiddly compartment would be nice

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

The bass I built is intended as a tribute to him, he is to my mind exactly what a bass player should be

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

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

Fabulous btw “you borrow from someone”, they “loan to you”. I think it’s the same word in Portuguese but not in English

We have cctv for just this reason

Even now a carpet is rolled up letting the underlay dry as mr idiot didn’t tighten the cold feed nut enough. I had to cut the wall open to get to it. Just like the shower head feed that he did tighten but forgot to put ptfe on it first and he is british gas trained....

I cannot recall the last time I got practice we moved into this money pit 14 months ago and my foxtrot uniform Charlie kilo India November golf amp is still in the wardrobe where it landed on move in day. Thanks vendor and your your pack of lies thanks david wilson homes and your utterly sugar honey ice tea build quality and relentless corner cutting thanks idiot plumber who failed to tighten or ptfe anything in the shower room you fitted leading to “relentless succession of leaks” city from all possible sources of water

You are lucky to get practice ...

Ugh! Too.... many... weedy...strings.... take them away !

I like that but I would not pay much extra

I bought a “blues tribute” on eBay for not much and it’s fabulous. Fat Woody sound and cheap as chips

Indeed the bed would be too big without them, and too small with them of course

Not an easy shape to scrape clean well, I wood say

No, still ugly but in a less handbag colour

No, I do not own lipstick with which to make the colour
