I like the colour.

[quote name='ras52' timestamp='1444230939' post='2881390'] Have you tried the Ernie Ball "Not Even Slinky" 12s with a big fat plain G? [/quote] Not yet, but I will now!

I've heard some of the album, I like Billy's playing, but don't like his tone.

I bought a rather nice JP Squire Tele from Jamie. Item as described, he made sure it arrived quick, and it was mightily well packaged. More than happy to do business with him again

[quote name='AlexDelores' timestamp='1443986992' post='2879275'] Evening all, I'm looking for some Good recommendations for a decent multi effects unit similar to the Line 6 Bass pod Xt live or the Boss GT10B? These are two i quite like the spec on but they don't seem to be very easy to come by? I've seen the Rocktron B300 Utopia on Thomann that after a brief look seems fairly close spec to the line 6 but i've never heard of them and wondered if anybody have any experience with them? A new project is going to require some quite heavy effects and I want a decent effects unit i can use whilst writing and doing some live stuff as well as having the USB interface for home recording. I also know a lot of people will say to steer clear and stick to individual stompboxes but for what i'm after a multi effects will be better due to the variety its going to give me whilst experimenting, Just need some advice on a decent unit to look at. Thanks Alex [/quote] Digitech BP355 Wouldn't be without mine. Does all you want and more. Has drums to play along with, and even a nice selection of guitar amps should you feel inclined. Under £100 too!

[quote name='JapanAxe' timestamp='1443908629' post='2878705'] It's the guitar strings that get me. Nice fat bass strings (flats) are kind to the fingers, but skinny strings make them sore. [/quote] I use 11's on guitars, it's only the wound G String that is stopping me going heavier.

Much prefer books on Kindle, but prefer my music on paper. Also much prefer dots to tab.

[quote name='Skol303' timestamp='1443627318' post='2876405'] There's a saying we use at work: [i]"There's no 'I' in Team... [/i] [/quote] But if you look hard enough there is a 'me'. David Brent.

does detract somewhat from the community spirit.

[quote name='silverfoxnik' timestamp='1443360713' post='2874093'] Did anyone else have a bass set up by Robert yesterday? He did my Yamaha TRB5 and it's absolutely brilliant! [/quote] Yup, he did my Iceni Zoot. Plays absolutely stunning. [size=4] [/size]

4 and 20 virgins came down from Inverness...;-)

Doh! Apologies to Kankaris, I quoted the wrong post I was referring to not being added to the list. computer at work won't let me quote.

[quote name='Kankaris' timestamp='1443123557' post='2872498'] Thanks Kiwi, bluejay, I'll see you there! If it helps, I'll be bringing a Yamaha RGX121 and a Fender Rumble [/quote] Not quite [size=4] [/size]

[quote name='MacDaddy' timestamp='1436564552' post='2819276'] Really not sure, as have the mother in law over for a visit [/quote] Got a day pass so add me to the list [size=4] [/size]

Auschwitz the meaning of pain.

But what is a Fender? Anything with a Fender logo? IIRC the current Fender company just own the original blueprints and trademarks. The original factory, machines, and craftsmen are no longer with us. It's all about the 'brand' .

TalkSport or Radio 4, on the wireless in the car. At home either music I'm learning or playing along with for my bands. That's not to say I don't still buy music. I downloaded Reign in Blood recently (only took 30 years to finally get it) but haven't blasted it out yet.
