  1. Partysounds is closing but they have a new site in Arsebook
  2. I just found myself married to Anastasia , and it only cost her 10 grand. She paid her expenses. Счастливые дни !! Ypa !
  3. The bass player pays all the fuel costs
  4. Am i just lucky ? Or is it cos i is the long arm of the law ? I rarley see ads, ( Firefox ) and my Av simply stayed where it is. I got the cookie box thingy wotsit but thats about it. < smug mode off >
  5. Seems to be working ok Mykey https://www.cortguitars.com/product/list.php?ca_id=103030
  6. PS scuse the blood on my arm. They were really going for it. The nurse at my local surgery is used to my arms and has no trouble. These guys were like SAS rejects
  7. It was a real pleasure working with ya, matey ! As for today, bit unusal to have a CT Scan at 7pm in the evening, in fact it was 2 as i had a normal and a contrast where they inject fluid for the 2nd scan. They weren't a problem but the injections were. I got the veins of a woman and they couldnt get the needles in. The harder it is, the harder they push so they really hurt. They tried right arm first, then left hand, then left arm. I've been severely pricked, people
  8. Quite right Eude, great job done by Andy and the woods are gorgeous - even more so in the flesh
  9. Slightly better full frontal ...roswood boards dont like flash much , so i see. Makes 'em look a bit weird
  10. Did Dr. Frankensteins monster lose his ?
  11. I reckon black hardware would have worked nicely with this too, but i already had the bridge, so it would have been an uneccessary expense
  12. Nah, Canadian maple and Rosewood board and fillet. I wouldnt lick it - its full of Andy oil
  13. It be this .. Series / Parallel Hum cancelling / Single coil with 3 posish switch 250k + 500k switchable
  14. PS the bass is slightly cropped as i couldnt stand far enough back to get it all in the frame For the photographers amongst us, my gear was a full frame Nikon D610 ( body currently on here for sale if you is interested ) + a spiffing Tamron 90mm f2.8 Macro lens and Meike Speedlite SB950 MKll flash
  15. Thanks chappies. Yup, a wee bit unusual, but then so am i Andy did a quick record on his phone while he was here, so if he posts it, i guess the quality might be suspect , (as my playing will be, ) due to the limitations of mobiles, unless Andy has a real beast of an iPhone or something !
  16. Well then, after some two-ing and fro-ing with Andy via messaging and telepathy, the wonderful Andy dropped my Nemesis bass off today on his way to a pluck and slap fest bass bashing, so thanks for the detour Andy. How refreshing to put a face ( albeit one only a mother could love ) to reams of text over the months. What a lovely chap. Mr friendly, mr patient, mr craftsman. So, without further ado, and i guess if you've been a nosy bustard and stuck your hooter in the build threads, you've probably already seen it, so this could be a bit of a zzzzzzzzz for some. Or maybe not .. but here in all it's glory. Notice i didnt say ' she ' ... It's a bass and it's inanimate, guv For anyone who missed the spec : Aaron Armstrong custom build pup. Series / Parallel Hum cancelling / Single coil with 3 posish switch 250k + 500k switchable Schaller 3 way adjustable Unknown Tuners / buttons / string tree Last piece of English Walnut cut down many many moons ago by Scrumpy Mike's good buddy Merv. ( top face ) African Sapele ( back face ) Purpleheart Sandwich filler ( from Tesco finest range ) Pupleheart pup cover ( which AA built the pup into ) Purpleheart control cover Sapele ( i think ) knobs with Purpleheart caps and abalone or mop markers Weight 4.05 KG I thought my Rally Basso had a fab tone, but this has topped it. Quiet a variable tone monster considering it's a single pupper EDIT : forgot a full frontal.....
  17. I doused mine in Ronson lighter fluid, flicked a Swan Vesta match at the monstrosity, and said an incantation as the fecker melted Good fecking riddance
  18. 10k should be pretty good, when you consider that jazz basses have less than that. Maybe they're wired out of phase ?
  19. Ta peoples Just waiting now..
  20. Thanks guys ! Not the worst illness on the planet and the op is just in and out in a day. Wah, that sounds all wrong ..
  21. Was Howard Goodall, and he himself is a superb musician. He deconstructed Peppers like a demon, and you wouldnt believe how inventive the whole band were, but espesh Mac and Lennon , and of course the genius that was George Martin. All this prior to the digital trickery we have today. It was mind boggling
  22. I may well be AWOL but for a 2nd reason ... been rather ill over the last couple of weeks, Andy knows about it Talking of probing, i'm getting a CT Scan probe on Sunday evening . Strange, i didnt know you could could get that sort of treatment at 7.20 pm at night. Perhaps The Horton General do things differently
