Dont know why they're building a P bass - safe perhaps ? Still, i like their amps and cabs, and dont mind the colour scheme

Scuse me - i'm just going to call God on the great white telephone

I'm sure we hit 50 at The Dolphin , Middleton Cheney, Banbury

Cheers Davey lad. I dont know much about MM's but it didnt quite tally up. The body looked like a precision but with a pair of MM style pups. Mind you i only looked for 10 mins or so...., at 1hr 27, there's a better view and i can see its neither Precision or Stingray

Not using a P/J or a Jaydee here.. what is it ?

If you google Youtube The Firm Live at Hammersmith Odeon 1984, looks like a Dual Humbucker Musicman fretless, but looks more like a Precision witn dual MM pickups.

No matter - we both think it's a good 'un. Not particularly a bass players album, but great songs. IMO of course

Great band. Got the 2 albums The Firm and Mean Business. Frankiln is top notch

Think It's Grand Tourismo - and a good album, yes.

That is a shame young Les. Bluddy Squiers

It's only a squier, squire. You can use a shovel instead of a screwdriver - no harm done

Keith Richards at least 10 years older than her and looks even better

Sheila E - fab. Were we even discussing her at band rehearsals this evening. Class indeed

Yeah good prog. But i am a fan of SC's tubbing. Tight as a Mallards chuff. Listen to The Police - Next To You

I only know that i wouldnt join the pay band. That music is all over the place. There's absolutely no genre to speak of, unlike your other band of electric pop, which you will know exactly what you're gonna get. What type of audience is the pay band trying to please ..or attract ?

I love the A/E bass , i just dont know much about them. The HMT above seems to have a very different headstock to the A/E

This is an HMT https://www.elderly.com/fender-hmt-late-1980-s-early-90-s.htm

It's hard to imagine just how huge that neck is, front to back. That thing is like a broken pencil. Pointless

The only famous chaps i saw before they were famous were Jakko Jakszyk and Joe Jackson. Not even sure if their bands stayed together, so it maybe just Jakko and Joe himself that became famous. Anyways, myself and some buddies wandered into a pub in Gosport ( i used to live in {Portsmouth ) and there was a great band on, called Arms and Legs. We didnt know they were playing at the time, just a lucky shot And the same with Jakkos band back in the day. I was living in Oxford after Portsmouth ( and Southsea as well ) and used to go to The Corn Dolly a lot, in Oxford. There was a band playing called The 64 Spoons. Strange crew .. but entertaining

Billy Preston ! Dammit another of my faves i forgot. And Nicky Hopkins Listen to the awesome keys on the Stones " Goats Head Soup " Both Hopkins and Preston were magic

Interesting to see you're using a Warman UK built MM clone. I have one in my accessories draw that i fitted to one of the Vintage MM basses. The used a Wilkinson, IIRC. I dumped it in favour of the Warman, and it was way better. When i sold the bass , i put the Wilky back in and kept the Warman for a later project, which hasn't happened. Booo

Sometime in the 80's

OOOh yea Rod Argent. Massive

.. and then kick the guitards butt
