  1. That Eng Walnut is as beautiful as the Purpleheart. Hell , even the Sapele is good looking Great choice of woods, as it turns out
  2. fleabag

    Kerchiiiing ! https://thebassgallery.com/collections/bass-new-arrival/products/wilkes-bass-custom-fretless
  3. I did a hertz listening test and i got as far as 11,000 Hz and that was it. I think if one were 18 years old, one might get to hear 20,000 hz but this disappears over the years. Bit off topic , soz
  4. Def. looking like a bass body now. And yes, i'd love that Purple as the main wood, but when done, we have sandwich to look at, the pup cover and the neck, when it's also done. It's all good. yeehar
  5. I agree - in a studio, subtle tones would be useful.
  6. I sieze up a bit if my hands are cold. We rehearse in a cold warehouse, and have to have fires plugged in but still it takes a while to warm up Other than that, i dont get cramps. I always try to play every day, just to keep the muscle memory, and also the digits kinda loose.
  7. Mick is right. Logo is misplaced. It's a ringer
  8. You never understood me, anyway You'll never catch me... I won't give up... You'll NEVER take me alive!
  9. Just get Charic a 6 pack of Tennents Super and he'll be all over it like a tramp on a bag of chips 🤩
  10. My BA 115 combo was an utter pile of. I wouldnt compare this to their real gear though. After watching / listening to Bowie live at the BBC in 2000, and listening to Mark Plati give it some on Ashes to Ashes , and Gail Ann Dorsey on the rest, i decided i loved the tone. Especially Ashes to Ashes when guitarist Plati took over on bass. Wonderful. Cant tell ya what model Plati and Dorsey are playing thorugh, but Ampeg officianados will know
  11. oooer, dodgy glue moment coming up. This is where you found out the next day you've glued the cat to some purpleheart
  12. What a fabulous sound he's getting. Didnt know they'd been a round for decades ! Yup, i guess , as you say, Hill must be playing through a guitar amp.
  13. Yup, it's just weird that the top bar changes depending on what i'm doing. As i type this reply, half of the tools in the top bar have disappeared as per pic 1 above
  14. I hadnt heard of this name till i accidently saw ZZTop , in fact both Hill and Gibbons are playing through Magnatones Having checked the company webby, i didnt see a bass combo, , so is Hill playing through a guitar amp ? Just curious .. https://magnatoneusa.com/products/
  15. This is the one loved enough to have a go at
  16. I'm not that happy with all this impersonating myself and the lads. Some of you are going dahn, you slags
  17. Our band loves Scary Pockets. We cover one of their covers
  18. You might have guessed right. What i should have done was not gone to see them live, voting with my feet and wallet.
  19. Good speech HK I'm a fan too, and had the luxury of seeing LZ live at Ally Pally in London 1975 just after LZ 5 was released. Great gig , great memory. I was too young to know what songs they copied or plagiarised, but i couldnt give a hoot, even now
