Hopefully the new government will look at that; they're happy to chase individuals but need to sort out the corporates.

I buy things from Amazon and via eBay if what I want is there. The number of times I've gone into shops to look for something and when I've asked the assistant has advised me to look online... I usually respond with something like "Well, I've come here and would like to give you my business.". Incidentally, I recently went to a shop to look for a piece of HiFi; they said they had one and told me it was storage off-site but would confirm in the week; they called back and said it hadn't been serviced, so I said that meant I was sitting on a £399 bill, but they stuck at the price discussed inthe shop, so I declined. They then put it on eBay and it sold for less. TBH, I'm getting to the point of not bothering with shops, as I'm getting the idea that I'm just wasting my time.

It's possible I got it the wrong way round and they started off being MIJ and then swapped to Italy. I think the edges of the tuner keys are fluted outwards though.

I had an old one for a while; it's common for them to lose the "S" on the tailpiece. The RM shop also did a reissue 10-15 years ago and they really hiked the price (£899.99, I think). This is a 1970 RM catalogue which matches the one in the pic. I think 1970 and those tuners makes it Italian (Eko).

That was intended to be ironic, btw. 🙂

Buy this - it’s worth double if you flip it.

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/387170874683 Descrption: The neck is a licensed neck by WD music. I think the back neck plate is from 1973. The body could be Fender and I have no idea about the electrics etc ( the control cavity looks professionally cut ).

£367.

I saw that one - it’s a right larf!

It's a wind-up!

Millions of pounds of investment gone into generating this load of rollocks have made Nvidia the most valuable company in the world! "Key features include a lightweight ash body, a smooth maple neck, and a 22-fret fingerboard for comfortable playability.

This bass is known for its sleek design, exceptional build quality, and distinctive sound, making it a prized instrument for both professional and amateur bassists."

A Polo bass: mint with a hole in it?

OK, it's an Alembic, but heck that is an ugly bass!

I think Lewis Carroll predicted AI: ’Twas brillig, and the slithy toves Did gyre and gimble in the wabe: All mimsy were the borogoves, And the mome raths outgrabe. “Beware the Jabberwock, my son! The jaws that bite, the claws that catch! Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun The frumious Bandersnatch!” He took his vorpal sword in hand; Long time the manxome foe he sought— So rested he by the Tumtum tree And stood awhile in thought. And, as in uffish thought he stood, The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame, Came whiffling through the tulgey wood, And burbled as it came! One, two! One, two! And through and through The vorpal blade went snicker-snack! He left it dead, and with its head He went galumphing back. “And hast thou slain the Jabberwock? Come to my arms, my beamish boy! O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!” He chortled in his joy. ’Twas brillig, and the slithy toves Did gyre and gimble in the wabe: All mimsy were the borogoves, And the mome raths outgrabe.

I once saw Todd Rundgren and the whole band swapped instruments for one song. My inclination in this scenario would be to say I'll play guitar on a song.

P = IV Double the current will go to the 4 ohm cab, or 2/3 of your power. (Assuming they're connected in parallel.) As far as Watts to volume goes, the general rule is 10x the power = 2x the volume.

Problem is I just don't like the Hipshot bridge on a Ric; it ruins the aesthetic. I found a use for one I have... Just need a pickguard and my 4000K is good to go!

Interesting… I just don’t get the Babicz, as it only addresses one of the common complaints about the stock bridge/tailpiece combo, but not tail-lift and palm-muting (arguably it makes palm-muting worse). It’s a shame they didn’t do a complete replacement unit.

It’d match your Rush logo!

Yamaha basses just look insipid.

Looks killer to me!
