  1. Now that’s what I call a response. Well done, Sir 👏👏👏.
  2. What’s the word on the Celinder and the ‘Ray? The SB1 obviously received a big thumbs up, but you’ve left us hanging on the more recent acquisitions.
  3. Oof! 😍 That purple heart is to die for. Hopefully @Matt P will provide us with some sound clips once he's taken possession. 🤞
  4. Cracking stuff. I drank a lot of this when I was in Vancouver a few years back.
  5. I read about this earlier. Declan McManus has been known to be somewhat prickly in the past and a bit up himself. However, this has renewed my respect for him. Good man! 👏👏👏
  6. Ashes to Ashes - Bowie (sorry I couldn’t let it just hang).
  7. My last keys player is now a really good friend. He is awesome in all respects, generous, helpful, a true GASaholic and a monster player with absolute perfect pitch. They are out there, but they are as rare as rocking horse poop.
  8. iOS upgrade at my end. I received notification of potential data breaches on a number of sites.
  9. Work sucks! You won’t be any use to anyone for the rest of the day, you’ll be too distracted. Pack it in and immerse yourself thoroughly in your NBD 😉.
  10. I have been a George L's user for many years but, just like @dave_bass5, I find the angled jacks a bit too much. Therefore, last year, I decided to give a set of prewired, flat patch leads a go. OK, they haven't been gigged, but they have been used for practice and for recording. I'm very happy. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Rayzm-Guitar-Instrument-Effects-Pedal-Board/dp/B07F9M677P/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=Rayzm+Guitar+Patch+Cable%2C+6.35mm+Angled+Instrument+Jumper+Cable+for+Guitar%2FBass+Effects+Pedals%2C+5cm+Pedal-Board+Jumper+Cables+(6-Pack%2C+Black+)&qid=1624878726&sr=8-1
  11. Attack of the 50 Foot Woman - The Tubes
  12. Best - Thunder at the Astoria 2 (went expecting to be entertained but was blown away by the whole vibe and stagecraft. Saw them again at the Hammersmith and, whilst a bigger and more professional production, it didn’t have the same feel). Followed by Bruce Springsteen at Wembley and Jeff Beck at the Hammersmith ‘81(?). Worst - Hmm, either Walter Trout (boring) or one of Wishbone Ash’s lack lustre performances.
  13. Absolutely! C’mon DHL, get this addictive, little bass to its new owner.
  14. I know someone who played the same major fill over obvious minor progressions. I’ve known guitarists who play the blues scale (fundamentally minor) over everything, whether it be major or minor (when I first started playing guitar, this was me too - for shame). I worked with a really good singer and front man, who rarely came in at the right point of Rhythm Stick after the sax solo and, given that this is a fundamentally bass riff driven ditty, was a PITA. Same band, same song, I’d count the drummer in (you can tell where this going just by that statement alone) and he’d start on the hi-hat at the correct tempo only to speed up by at the very least 10 bpm after just a bar, one night I just had to say stop because I couldn’t physically play the riff that fast (Norman W-R would have struggled I reckon). Keyboard players who left hands keep drifting into the bass guitarist’s register. They’re all out there, the only players I’ve encountered who don’t seem to cause problems are horn players, but I bet they exist. In short, not everyone who can play or sing can do it with others.
  15. I'm assuming this is so they can run around and swap instruments in a dramatic way (I think I'm right in saying that they do play each others instruments). It would certainly be less clumsy than all that strap over the head thing.
  16. That is top is very nice. However, it's the back that blows me away, absolutely lovely!

    Sold

    I'm so glad that this isn't the MM, as there would be hell to pay at Castle MacEz. Great basses. GLWTS and the move.
  18. I Dream Of Wires - Gary Numan/Robert Palmer
  19. I had this a while ago, along with a few other sites. I wondered if it was anything to do with a firmware upgrade, but changed a bunch of passwords just the same.
