  1. Youth meets Jah Wobble..? Acid Punk Dub Apocalypse..? I’m in. https://open.spotify.com/track/5MxG9VR7Kiruaxim3MRgEH?si=NJz4Y5vLQTqubsXr9FDtWg
  2. As someone who plays originals and who is most happy when the response/reaction from an audience is a collective exclamation mark rising above their heads I’d say I’m a baked spud full of jelly.
  3. You know I'm born to sweep, and Housework is for fools But that's the way I Hoover baby I don't wanna clean for ever... ... and don't forget the Dyson.
  4. ...right, as soon as Miley Vyrus has sung her last I’m going to bring my short scales over!
  5. Paging @Bassassin.
  6. It’s of some interest to me! I’d suggest sticking with rounds whilst you are setting out simply so the pads on the tips of your fingers toughen up.
  7. Hello *waves*
  8. Hi Richard. Another newcomer to the fold ( @pepsi-abi ) has just bought a Sire, I would recommend one as a very good beginners bass that leave you with a chunk of change too.
  9. Oh no, don’t get me wrong, he’s certainly one of my favourite bass players and most certainly proper geezer, I’m referring to the fact that people who do care about image may disregard him. NWR is someone I wholly aspire to.

  12. Sir, there is a chasm of difference between hair farmers and men of quality and distinction, of which you are most certainly the latter.
  13. Bleedin’ ‘eck, you lot wanted to be hair farmers.
  14. Excellent to hear someone praising Extremities, it’s a fine album.
  15. Just for clarification, it was.
  16. This makes a change ...
  17. I thought the tone control was in the back as per the Rob Allen site... Is there a tone control? yes, Mb-2 and Mouse 30 basses have a passive high trim control located in the back cavity. You can access this through a small hole in the back plate with a small straight screwdriver. Wide open (full clockwise) is "flat", and as you back it off (counter clockwise), you will reduce high end. This is a subtle control, and is mostly to fine tune how much finger noise and articulation you want in your sound. I think of it as a master control, a "set it and forget it" that you can fine tune the overall sound with.
  18. I had an Ashbory, I threw on a bottom of the garden bonfire.
  19. I'm not a fan of guitar solos in music, but I love the guitar work on Tubeway Army records, Numan himself is credited as being the guitarist on their output, I don't think (despite having listened to them for decades) that he was the guitarist!
