Yes, but I wouldn’t like to paint it. Welcome, and on behalf of all Essex residents, sorry.
-
Oddly enough I have never chinned anyone, I’m all talk. Do as I say, not as I do as my c*** of a mother used to say *spits*. No issues there then...
-
This, with bells on. Just add on a chinning...
-
Don’t forget to chin them...
-
That, Sir, is superb news.

And as I said, your drummer is a reasonable exception. As someone who relied on being driven to rehearsals by a bandmate with my bass gear for a few month before I passed my driving test (I hope I behaved very professionally) perhaps I am being too harsh.
-
Bit of a Clash of content there...
-
It is a generalisation but it isn’t harsh. Obviously your drummer was an exception, and, given those circumstances, I would have happily shared transport duties too. I would also favour a non-driving drummer with a pro attitude over a driving drummer with a bad and lazy attitude, thing is in my experience, including fifteen years being a drum tech for touring bands, I have never met the former but have encountered a plethora of the latter.

Well the boat bringing my Chowny SWB Pro docked in the very early hours of this morning and left for Rotterdam in the last hour so I am assuming my bass will soon be on its way to Steven and then to me. I took delivery of the Gator GC-ELEC-XL case this morning, odd how frustratingly light it feels!
-
Or, alternatively, chin both of them.
-
This is easy... Drummer = c*** Singer = c*** ...any drummer who doesn’t drive isn’t a drummer, they are a royal pain in the a*** and that’s before any of the other negative traits you mentioned. Embrace the C word here and walk.
-
This is an option I am seriously considering.
-
Just for comparison purposes, obv...
-
I believe it to be a thumb rest.

They do the SWB-1 in fretless but I would prefer a lined neck and I’m not sure I like any of the SWB-1 finishes. If Chowny did a lined fretless version of the SWB Pro I’d order one in an instant.
-
As yet I've not found one I got on with.

God help me I’m just down the road to you and if I can just sell another bass I’ll be back... -
Oh sweet baby Jesus and the saints...

Excellent documentary, what a player. Spitting image of Nigel Tufnel as well.
-
Does anyone own, have experience with, or can recommend a short scale (30” or less) lined fretless bass, electric or acoustic?
-
I watched it arc through the air and hit the target so unless you are Toyah then I’m afraid it was another yob.
-
I once gobbed over Toyah mid-gig at The Rainbow on the 21st February 1981. I am considering making it a double in November.

I went from 34 down to 28.5 and the only difference was playing became significantly easier. I had no positional problems whatsoever.
