48 Crash - Suzi Q

Sorry, couldn’t resist.

I Want It All - Queen

You may have a short between the pickguard shielding and one of the pots or a connecting, bare wire (if you find the output jacket socket is fine).

Ace of Spades - Motörhead

Is the right outcome. Enjoy.

Ready for Love - Bad Co

Lovely 😍

Leaving on a Jet Plane - John Denver

Yeah, but a glorious 10 seconds. Plus, you taught someone a valuable lesson.

Together with, “Ooh that’s nice, what is it?” You name the spirit. “Oh, a blend…” Back on basses, these days, I particularly like taking a great playing cheaper instrument and making better with a few (or more) tweaks. Perhaps I’ve always liked that, as I remember my modded, bolt on lawsuit Aria Les Paul* tonally blowing away a full fat Gibson back in my youth. *See guitars I regret selling.

Reap The Wild Wind - Ultravox

Feed my Frankenstein - Alice

Any updates?

Fox on the Run - Sweet

I’ve been on the end of it. When I first started playing bass, I went to jams to get out and play and maybe pick up some contacts. I certainly wasn’t a musical noob, as I’d been playing guitar previously for nearly 30 years. At one jam, run by a local blues guitar hero, I heard a snide comment from one of the house band about non Fenders. As I was pretty much the only other person there at the time, with my Yamaha in tow, I can only assume it was aimed at me and my ‘starter’ bass. What an absolute tool 😠.

Snooker Loopy - Chas & Dave

Take it Sneezy - The Eagles

Go Wild in the Country - Bow Wow Wow

Paranoid - Sabbath

Widgeon on a Star - Rose Royce

Hard to go wrong there.

Fear of the Duck - Iron Maiden

Chicken Grease - D'Angelo

I’ve always found them very helpful, even when you don’t buy anything. Good to see they’re still providing a service that will keep folk coming back.
