  1. He also used to turn his back to the audience and fart
  2. I dress stand to the left
  3. Try these 2 ... i played both using these tutes.
  4. HB Silv ! Let us eat cake
  5. I wonder why other reviewers couldnt follow the Ed Friedland format. He really gets the balance right
  6. Gabriela Gunčíková could have joined Deep Purple She's awesome
  7. I had the privelege of seeing that line up in the 70's at some venue or other. I blame the copious amounts of jazz cabbage back then.
  8. I suspect ped minor will be plotting dad's demise in a freak yachting accident at some point, and taking over the throne
  9. Take dog treats if you're visiting @TheGreek
  10. Your'e a tad late. It's gone to Colonel Chris
  11. I'm taking notes here, just in case
  12. Cut a slot in the head of the bolt then unscrew using a flat driver. How do you cut a slot on bolt/screw head when its flush mounted ?
  13. Likewise - and they wont interfere with the sound. I think Bill F advises that you need a lot more than the height of some castors to get de-coupling Rubber castor wheels, and the 75mm size would be my choice. You only need 2 locking, not all 4.
  14. Good for me, but i've never been plagued by this. Regardless of showers or baths, i dont lose the hardened finger skin. Then again, gigging or not, i play every day so the fingers in question never get a chance to soften up. It probably helps that i'm not an animal when plucking strings. Handy i suppose because i've never had to play with a pick, and wouldn't want to, as i detest the sound
  15. Maybe he should have a go at relicing that as well.
  16. I had a similar problem when i was looking for some Status humbuckers and preamp, ( not for a Status ) but the descriptions were not good enough so i phoned and got Dawn. She was fine, but needed to ask Rob, but i got vague answers back from Dawn, presumably relaying what Rob had said. I got nowhere, so i left that option and bought elsewhere. Might be wrong, but i had the feeling i wasnt really spending enough money. If i was commissioning an expensive bass, i guess i may have had a better response, but i cannot prove that. They are a small quality outfit, and maybe i called on a bad day, but we'll never know, since i didnt bother buying in the end
  17. I never got to the bottom of it, because it fixed itself without any changes. Aged was right i think, in that he believed that is wasnt the valve, because the hiss disappeared before i replaced the Ruby with the Sovtek. The only thing i did to the amp was take the lid off, pull the original Ruby valve out, and simply put it back in, but the hiss continued. Sometime before the new valve was fitted, the hiss disappeared. This was whether bass was connected or not ..made no difference.
  18. Looking at the back of the headstock, i would assume anyone that was a woodworm hobbyist would be watching that
  19. You could keep it, just for the crack, like
  20. Back in the victorian era, i was in a 3 piece ( i was drumming then ) and our bassister used an unlined fretless Nightingale bass. It was utterly superb, and looked a million dollars. They're quite rare, so what happened to that monstrosity and how that neck ended up where it has is shameful
  21. She looking for a rich bass player ? I think that maybe a huge misnomer
  22. Yeah i laughed at that too. I'm sure it was a joke
  23. Indeed, but he's a damn fine clock mechanic
  24. He's broken basschat !
  25. Look forward to that too - they've had instruments on there before but they tend to be really old. Accordians and such. Be nice to see a bass on there getting some TLC. Those folk are pretty good at what they do
