  1. Gypsies, Tramps & Thieves - Cher
  2. I used that stringing method with my first set of Cobalts, but haven’t bothered since. I can’t say I have noticed any difference when in use, just less of a faff to fit.
  3. Ah! I saw the end of the word medium, but didn’t clock the word gauge and assumed they were medium scale. Off on my high horse a bit prematurely there; apologies. 🤦🏻
  4. I reckon they put short scale strings in a medium scale packet. I’d send them back or at least com0lain to the retailer and D’Addario.
  5. Firth of Fifth - Genesis
  6. Wooden It Be Good - Nik Kershaw
  7. Arco Precision, what would Leo have made of that?
  8. There you go. You already sing a couple of songs that others continue to allow you to; can’t be all that bad. Providing a song is in the baritone range and needs a voice akin to Byrne/Bowie/Ferry/Sylvian, etc, I’ll give it a go. Playing and singing at the same time needs lots of homework for me; singing and playing China Girl took me ages to get ‘right’*. *passable.
  9. The Heat Is On - Glenn Frey
  10. Fat Man in the Bathtub - Little Feat (sorry no pun, but c’mon, it’s Little Feat).
  11. Singing well is hard and a proper talent (although it can be learnt if you can hold a tune) and I’ve had the privilege to work with some really top notch vocalists, one of whom will have graced your TV screens at various big events. Average singers are ten a penny, however, whilst bad singers are even more prevalent. I’ve observed that their talent is normally in inverse proportion to how good they think they are.
  12. Copper taped my JMJ, worked a treat, just make sure that some tape makes contact with the control plate (I didn’t first time 🤦🏻).
  13. For me: 1972 You are not worthy. 2022 No, still not worthy.
  14. Smashing! Short scales do seem to be very authoritative in a mix (more fundamental, less harmonics) and they take pitch based FX brilliantly.
  15. Good grief!
  16. The Dregs! What a guitar player Steve Morse is. So sad that he’s had to call it a day.
  17. Just as silly to have the mids off. Either way, should be OK for a cover if you add some drive.
  18. Nothing Ever Happens - Del Amitri
  19. Hope it stays asymptomatic and clears up soon.
  20. If I Were A Rich Man - Topol
  21. Custard Pie - Led Zep
  22. Eton Trifles - The Jam
  23. I Genoa A Little - Lynyrd Skynyrd
  24. I Knew the Bridie - Nick Lowe (a bridie is a Scottish pie/pasty affair if you were wondering).
