  1. This argument seems to raise its head about once a month in one form or another. There are those who subscribe to the wood makes a huge difference and those who believe that it either doesn’t or that it is so minimal in the grand scheme of things, as to be inconsequential. No one ever moves from their entrenched positions, as far as I can see. With that in mind, I’m afraid that this is a case of, move along, nothing new to see here.
  2. Gorgeous! 😍
  3. A solid choice, but doesn't fit the brief due to the time scale...
  4. Every one a good reason to give them a wide berth. You’re not wrong about the set up either. Fortunately, once done, they don’t need revisiting that often, if at all.
  5. All By Myself - Eric Carmen
  6. Before owning my 4003s, I’d have probably agreed with you, as previous examples at shows had been disgracefully set up - see not at all. However, when I picked one up many years later (just to check my previous experiences) I was blown away and I had to have it. TBH, if it hadn’t been so heavy and my ageing frame so sore, I’d still have it (same goes for my EBMM Stingrays).
  7. Rickenbacker.
  8. They lacquer their rosewood boards.
  9. Who Are You - The Who
  10. There’s a video (on SBL I think) of George saying how most people play it wrong, Pino included.
  11. The bass lines to Cissy Strut and Sneakin’ Sally Through The Alley are iconic.
  12. Cradle Rock - Rory Gallagher
  13. Thank you so much, that’s very kind of you. We followed this up by recording Don’t Give Up, but the lockdowns ended and people in the collective started gigging and teaching again, so we never got around to making a video to accompany it, which is a shame, but great that the other folk are back out there and busy. There is talk of putting the music to a generic video image, but even this seems to be taking time.
  14. Last Train To Clarksville - The Monkees
  15. Danny’s tone is just to die for IMO. I first became aware of him when this sound emanated from a friend’s hifi…
  16. The original version of this song always makes me happy and playing it even more so. It was a privilege to be asked to play on this and a delight to record and film. It’s not a hard line, but that doesn’t matter to me.
  17. Descriptions on Anderton’s say rosewood, as does the Ric website.
  18. Ahem… Rickenbacker.
  19. Ooh, I like that!
  20. To my mind, this is to balance the output of the series setting against the single/parallel settings. If you decide you prefer the latter two, engage the boost and adjust the knob height so that the lower output can’t be selected.
