There's bound to be a couple of officious CITES jobsworth perusing over the fretboard .. " It's Gabon Ebony / Macassar Rosewood / Cuban Driftwood " ( delete as necessary ) " Nope you muppet. It's Horse Chestnut "

Our drummist is a good lad. Good on the tubbs. Laid back, easy going Manc. Long as we can control his drool, we're quids in.

I cant help anyone. I don't know anything because i'm an idiot

Waddo cannot help you. He cant help anyone, because he's a figment of everyone's imagination, and doesnt know anything, because he's an idiot.

ooops, link already posted above

He's a nice chap , apparently

Its Yoda looking for a band isn't it ? Him hire i would

Are you about to spit in that coffee ??

My mate did some work on one of his basses

Been using both for years.

Then again, i'm home, sat in a 2nd floor apartment lounge in 84.9 degrees and sweating like a supergrass, and you're sat in Spain, next to an inviting pool , supping rum daquiris or some cervezas. Pathetic right ?

Unbelievably so. Well, you did ask 😀

Yupski, self taught here too. But i do use my pinky a lot. In fact i use all 4 fingers on my fretting hand. On the other hand, I'm about as good at reading music as i am at rocket surgery. Zilch. Nada. Zip.

She is much cop though. Whether anyone likes her playing and/or the music is something else. Dont like the the horrid rubbery , elastic band in bowl of custard tone, but she can play, as can the others.

Damn thats a great band. Great tones all round. Well recorded Blue

For sure, there's at least 2 couriers here now who can do a good job. Being able to speak to the main man is a whopping bonus. These people are not yer average parcel booters. They take care, which is paramount

I think when i messaged you for a contact, it was Stuart who's number you gave me, Walshy. It was on answer , so left a message and never heard back. Now we know why It was to send a commission sale on my Taylor 12 to a shop, and called the shop to say i was having trouble with a courier, and it was the shop who recommended Lenspeed

Yes it was me. The Courier is Lenspeed. When you call you get the boss. Great service. No need for hard cases or cardboard boxes. Just a padded case will do. They specialise in music equipment, including valve amps and also delicate antiques. Last time i used them was 3 weeks ago and it was £55 for my bass. Call Lenny on 07834 320 015. I've now used them 3 times. https://lenspeedlogistics.com/ I tried Walshy's man and he never returned my call.

Yes, burn the witchy Ibanez. Or, upcycle it into a pallet ??

It's catching innit, this guitar thingy. Scored this lovely 80's Aria Pro II GT-3 HSS recently.

Live those dreams - Scheme those schemes - hit me hit me hit me hit me hit me with those Custard Creams. Good ole Frankie GTH Massage In A Brothel ... you know Mullet Too Tight To Mention - ole ginger nut himself

Pal No 1 : " Hey who's that on bass ? " Pal No.2 : " Thats fleabag " Pal No.1 : " Wow, he's friggin ' awesome. Why isnt he rich and famous ? "

I was just thinking my apartment entry buzzer speaker has more xmax than that driver 🤓

Not really with some of the early musicians. Hensley and Kerslake both died in 2020, and Byron died very young in 1985 at 38 New Zealander basser Gary Thain who replaced Mark Clarke in '72, died even younger in 1975 at 27. Mick Box of the classic line up ( Thain, Box, Hensley, Byron, Kerslake ) is still going though
