  1. I've copied details of three Spondon function rooms for hire. Links are included. As stated, I won't be organising, merely supporting if asked to. I don't do the socials. It became clear to me earlier in the year that organising such an event requires someone who will be happy to use them. SpondonFunctionRooms.doc
  2. Yust? I am not volunteering to organise this but I will support anyone who does. I will make enquiries locally (Spondon Village) to see if we have a venue with good parking. The village hall is good but for the fact that the car park is often full. I have two more possibilities to ask about. I will report back early in the week. Thanks for suggesting Derby It's close to the A38 and the area contains a good chunk of heritage. Maybe compare notes in the coming week?
  3. Even with the image at full size, it is hard to make out the letters on your logo. All I get is "guitars" - just about. A larger logo would serve you well. I understand the desire to show as much of that wonderful grain as you can but there must be a better balance between the two.
  4. Cream Farewell Concert RAH 1968 21:55 Talking Pictures TV - Freesat 306 Tonight (Thursday)
  5. Is there any reason they wouldn't work. Too quick to react perhaps?
  6. Would breakers work in this application? I like the clean look of the front panel.
  7. Welcome Goety.
  8. Mmmmm. Blond Leb.
  9. Beautifully built, documented and demonstrated. As always. Cheers Brooksie.
  10. That's interesting. Could that be why folk buy new and then deface their instrument just for credibility on the scene?
  11. Do you not think you could break even, cash-wise, or make a little on it? Labour excluded of course. It is a lovely thing just going by the photos. It certainly sounds like a zinger.
  12. It would be worth making enquiries of Newtone Strings. They made a set of DBEs for me before. Otherwise... it's the clamp!
  13. Very nice. Good sound too. Have you considered trying superwound (piano) strings? I have some lightish ones on my B2A. Incredible sustain and harmonics.
  14. So much electrickery, so much craft. I do like someone who makes a tidy job of the bits that never get seen yet are the essence of the whole.
  15. Swede, pepper & butter* go very well together. *Other spreads are available but they're never quite as good.
  16. Who me? Why? Who have I insulted now? HI ham hinnocent hofficer, honest.
  17. Because it's tasty and healthy. Your opinion may differ but you did ask.
  18. Glad you're such a nerd. Don't you realise that this sort of information is like gold dust to most of us pluckers and plonkers? May the road rise to meet you, may the wind be always at your back.
  19. My heritage is half Celtic. Have you ever had tatties and neeps? Have you ever seen a man with a bald heid? That is all.
  20. Oh you know me so well. Fender seems not to like them. Maybe they detract attention from the Land of the Giants' headstock logo too much...? @neepheid Neepster? If I bought this could you change the neck for a nice Ibby SR series neck for me? If not... knock the price down enough for me to buy one and I can take care of it m'self. Joking aside, I bought a selection of metallic powders to see if mixing them with resin & hardener would work as a metallic looking filler to do an inlay on one of Jack's uke builds. It didn't bling as I'd hoped but it looked eye catching anyway when flatted and buffed. I've still got some somewhere if you want to have a play before you decide how you want to fill the water damage. PM me and I can pop some in the post for you.
  21. Knobs. Eh? Heeheehee. I don't often find myself admiring a knob but those look good.
  22. That's why I called you. Don't tell yourself short. Your posts on speaker design are both fascinating and helpful.
  23. Best wishes for you and your family. Don't sweat it. BC is here for you. Let us know when you land and and you've got a few minutes to spare. Visit the DoI if you need some informal distraction of the nuttier kind. It got a lot of us through lockdown.
  24. Lovely job. Respectful to the original. Didn't Nick Lowe refer to one of these after getting a massive shock on stage? Probably an urban legend, unless someone else knows better. These are the lines I'm referring to from So it Goes.
