  1. Takes the pressure off ! Like Mr WIB, i also had surgery ( replacement hip due to old car accident ) late November last year and was gigging New Years eve. The guys and girls in the band sorted everything from picking me up at home, hauling the gear to the car, then into the pub, set it up, tore it down and tranpsorted me and the rig back home again. It can be done !
  2. Has he got typing tourettes ? "Prototype Ghostbass 5 String Very.rare Only 4 In The World. Condition is Used.Prototype Ghostbass 5 String Very.rare Only 4 In The World. Condition is Used. Prototype "
  3. Changed my mind when i noticed they're playing Milton Keynes. Tickets already bought
  4. Yeah i agree it may be worth going just to see Jones and Goodsall, but its a long way for me
  5. Nah, wont be going. With Collins, Pert and Lumley all missing, its not the same band for me. I know Collins wasnt the orignal drummer and Pert wasnt at the start either, for me the perfect lineup was Jones, Goodshall, Collins , Lumley and Pert.
  6. Being in a funk band, i naturally take the other side, but we all have our likes and dislikes, blah blah. What i dont like is slap in funk songs, or any song really. It seems to me, ( only IMO ) that its more a technique than anything else, and its a tool that some bassers use to exact a " look at me " thingy. There just doesnt seem to be any musicality in there. Thing is, if had more talent, i'd be in a Brand X outfit, because Percy Jones bass playing really floats my kayak and has been till Brand X fell off the planet. I think i have around 4 CD's of that band and have had them since the 80's.
  7. The seller could send you anything inside a bass case, if they were out to scam you. Tracking will prove it was delivered. PP dont give a toss if the item has been signed for. Or the seller could simply withdraw the money, tick the " item posted " box and close the account. These things have already been done
  8. Not true. Paypal is not 100% safe for a buyer
  9. Been a member since 2004 - dont go there much, but had a quick check anyways, and seems fine from my end.
  10. Amen Got her first 2 CD's and wouldnt part with them.
  11. Yeah that could have been what i saw, but it was '94 so all i can remember about the bass was the vague shape. Still a great gig though
  12. Is his brother slightly salted or unsalted ? There's a big difference ya know
  13. I was thinking Prince Charles gave great customer service when i saw the title. How wrong i was
  14. Saw Crow at the Shepherds Bush Empire , London , a treat from my partner back then for my 40th. Utterly brilliant. Played both guitar and les paul style bass. Clapton - On - Sea came on in the 2nd half
  15. I was too off me face to remember the bass
  16. Funnily, i didnt like Stampede as much
  17. Likewise - still got Toulouse St, What Were Once Vices and Capt. and Me in my CD wallet Fabulous band
  18. Posted a pedal for sale and Nick inquired and paid within an hour of the sale being posted. This is how to do business Cheers Nick
  19. I saw Jack Casady and Jorma Kaukonen back in the 70's when i was embryonic Band was Hot Tuna - heady days indeed
  20. Try Bob Pimm at RP guitars. Like almost everyone, he incorrectly calls them ' tremolo ' but they're not. They're vibrato arms. Scroll down the page and you' ll find 2 stabilizers and a stopper https://rpguitars.co.uk/gallery.html
  21. Count me in as one of the other players that doesnt want to emulate the Squire sound. Maybe i'm a minority Sounding like a chainsaw with a turbo isnt the tone i've ever sought, but, you know, diversity rules. Sad world if we all liked the same thing.
  22. Apart from the cheeseyness of the chat, that pedal demo has single handedly persuaded me that its an utterly pointless piece of flotsam
  23. Cringe, hack, vom.
