Yes, I know that it is not a concept which immeadiately springs to mind, but being a DB player I really like the facilty my right hand has over an arched fingerboard. I have an old DB neck complete with fingerboard which I could easily (hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!) knock up into an EUB thing. Would fretting a curved fingerboard be do-able as a retro fit job. NS design do one so it is do-able but who would undertake such a job? Is this my stupidest idea yet?

Mr 10 had a CD I fancied. I paid, it came. It is all good

[quote name='Mickeyboro' timestamp='1363954636' post='2020052'] Declaring an interest as I am his pal and put the money up to publish it, Deke Leonard's [b]Rhinos Winos and Lunatics[/b]. It turned him from a guitarist (with Welsh band Man) to an author, and he's since written two more. He has a Facebook page for his latest effort, [b]The Twang Dynasty[/b] - [url="http://www.facebook.com/twangdynastybook"]http://www.facebook.com/twangdynastybook[/url]. In terms of mixing music, info and humour I really think he's in a class of his own. [/quote] The Twang Dynasty is a fantastic read. Passionately written by someone who knows his stuff.

I was told by the keyboard player recently that he couldn't hear the difference between any of them. Significantly closer to the truth than any of us would want to admit! Are there differences? Obv yes, but in the mix to an ear that does not care, not really much of a difference. I would keep the Sadowsky.

Ray, you speak the truth!

I cannot even spell "defaulted" properly. This has not been a good thread for me

Umm...........mumble..............mutter............. yes.............yes it is.............thanks.... <tries to slide away hoping no has noticed his stupidity>.........

I really like the phone format on my phone but it has defated to full version. Any idea how to go back to simplicity? TIA

Fit wood!

My hand is up to volunteer!

I drive a V reg estate with 150K on the clock. It gets me where I need to go. Would I enjoy a Bentley? I think I would

I have owned 3 so am qualified to comment. The electrics really are something else. If I could buy those seperately I would be all over them like a bad rash. Stupendous sound. The lower horn dug into my leg when sitting down. I play sitting down enough for it to be an issue so am no longer Bongoed up. It does roar though.

Sorry, would clipping be a better word to use than distortion?

The aesthetics are the best. I am a miserable old Fender bloke. There are very few newer shapes that work for me but the Ritter stuff is just so beautifully designed that it hits the spot. His finishes are always spot on. He is pushing in directions which no one else seems to.be doing. I owned one for a bit and it was an exceedingly fine axe and would have several more if money was no object. The Monroe bass with F holes and a really nice piezo system would be lush beyond. If it existed.

It is not too many watts that does nasty things to cabs, it is too few being driven into distortion. I used to drive an NV610 with an 800w amp for many happy hours.

I would be happy to organise the thing in Bangor, North Wales, but feel we would probably not reach critical mass. You can be certain about the rain. How many would we need to make it happen?
