Gigs? Oh yes, I remember those. After packing up, the last thing I wanted was a post licensing hours, grease fest. I’d drive straight home and maybe munch a few sweets from the car stock (yeah, I know, a post licensing hours, sugar fest) and maybe have a something plain, like a piece of bread, once home, whilst catching up on Basschat as a wind down.

I have found that modifying stock basses helped me define exactly what I want from a bass. My 2 custom builds feature many of the things that I tried out on stock basses earlier (D-Tuners for example) and not the things that didn’t work out as I’d hoped. However, upgrades to stock basses rarely increases the worth of that bass if and when you come to sell it, it is not a sum of its parts, sadly, although they might help sell it to someone who likes the changes. On the whole, I think it’s best to keep the original parts and put them back if you sell it on and sell the modifications separately (or keep them for your next project). It is this way that you might see a ‘sum of its parts’ resale value.

Onwards and upwards!

Link seems to have gone a bit weird for me, but I got there in the end. Yep, that’s pricey. Anyone else having an issue with the link, try this https://shop.music-man.com/ernie-ball-music-man-short-scale-stingray-4-bombshell.html

Substitute - The Who

Night Vision Binoculars - Passenger

I like the thread title very much.

I don’t know if these are still available, but the website seems live. I bought a couple years and years ago and they work really well, if you don’t mind putting a Velcro patch on your cab. http://guitarholder.com

Bomber - Mötorhead

It still confounds me how Magdalen is pronounced maudlin, or how we get mingies from Menzies.

Try eating a beetroot and asparagus salad, colour and aroma!

I like to call it comedy veg, what with the stinky pee, especially when you forget you ate it and the noxious cloud takes you by surprise 🤢😂.

Asparagus, seems straightforward and one way to pronounce it, right? Ooh no. Watching the TV some years back, we were treated to a Scottish gardener who pronounced it - áss-per-aar-gus, I was so open mouthed at the time, the TV might’ve fitted in - sideways!
