  1. Rob Strong. Singing bassist. I used to see him perform in the Harcourt Hotel basement in Dublin in the eighties.
  2. Billy Ocean. He has three lungs you know. Fact. Merrill Garbus has a fair set (of lungs) on her. Good thing she's got a gob that can handle it.
  3. My Vantage fretless is all black. It looks like the fingerboard is rosewood stained black. The only markings are the side dots. It had roundwounds from new and consequently the finish is less than perfect now. The lighter rosewood shows through in places. I wondered about restaining it but was told promptly by our Jack to leave it. I have since put black nylon tapewounds on and they suit the bass much better as well as being kinder to the fingerboard. I have to admit I prefer the worn in look now.
  4. You may be lucky and get a good match with your veneer but I'm betting that even if others can't see the lines, you won't be able to unsee them. There will be a difference in the direction of the wood grain for starters. That isn't necessarily a bad thing.
  5. Community. No question. I have felt the love on more than one occasion.
  6. You do know that this will upset some folk don't you? Good. Carry on.
  7. £80 for the transfer fee?!? That's feckin' outragious.
  8. An alternative to a cocktail stick is a bamboo kebab skewer with a dab of glue. It was @Andyjr1515 wot told me that, it was.
  9. I'd have to say that was carnage in slow motion. A nominee for the Truly Terrible Covers thread.
  10. I love the way you have The Tofu Cookbook on the same shelf as The Encyclopedia of Witchcraft and Demonology. That's a nice finish. I liked it in blue too.
  11. Welcome Bassman. You're not late to this at all. We have many mature members some of whom are starting from scratch.
  12. I've been thinking about it but probably not. I'm not up for much at the moment.
  13. That's our own Dave Swift in the advert isn't it?
  14. So, in the spirit of the topic title, right now you are flouncing off-site while keeping an eye out to see if anyone was impressed. Bless. I'll let the ambassador know that you will be having your Ferrero Rochers over at GuitarChat from now on.
