  1. Seems like Roger Daltrey was saying this last year. Perhaps it’s those who actually have nothing left to say who spout this old chestnut.
  2. The Seymour Duncan SPB-1 or the hotter 1/4 pounder will give you that less honky, mid scoop you’re looking for (I’ve had the SPB-1 in the past, it was nice, currently £75 from Anderton’s I think). Here’s a link to the SD P bass page which has sound samples https://www.seymourduncan.com/pickups/bass/p-bass?__uuid_ref=5c916f848af0d
  3. I did when I had one. I had to modify the replacement to fit (craft knife and nail file). EDIT: Use the original as the template.
  4. I voted nickel. However, as I now use EB cobalts on my basses, this is only true if cobalts didn't exist.
  5. I really like the theme tune to Casino Royale and Chris Cornell’s vocals on it are brilliant. However, the orchestration doesn’t make the hairs on the back of my neck stand up the way Barry’s strings on OHMS does.
  6. I find vegetable oil is very good at removing sticker residue.
  7. It is fact the measure of how much GAS pressure you have 😉.
  8. I do not need another PJB product, I do not need another PJB product. 😬
  9. Likewise. I also found Jerry Cornelius very entertaining, if often confusing.
  10. Thread derail - I have many fond memories of reading the Eternal Champion series. As you were.
  11. Maruszczyk Jake or Jake L. My one is a mere 7.15lbs.
  12. Kudos to @thebassgallery for my recent commission sale through them. Easy, quick, no muss, no fuss. Also provided an excuse to go there and try to find my next purchase. Cheers guys.

  13. You may onto something there. I used to listen to MIJ on headphones all the time and it was sublime. By the time MIE came out, I was playing guitar a lot more and I don’t remember listening to it on headphones, but I really annoyed my parents and neighbours playing along to it, especially Mistreated. 🤘
  14. I'd call it Hard Rock, which I think it was called in the 70s.
  15. Made In Japan was the album that made me throw away all my pop stuff and start again, it just blew my mind. However, looking back, I think that Made In Europe is an overlooked live album with just as much power as MIJ and, because of its single album format, is arguably more punchy.
  16. There’s a fair amount of Liquid Tension Experiment in there (Peart would’ve been great in place of Portnoy).
  17. Just heard Five Finger Death Punch doing Kenny Wayne Shepherd’s, Blue on Black. This could be a candidate for a different arrangement.
  18. Of course, he's still doing it and age hasn't reined him in too much either. Check out that P tone at 2:40 onwards during the guitar solo.
  19. Dark Stars were all the rage some years ago, with Lakland offering them on their P-alike. Not cheap, though https://www.curtisnovak.com/shop/bs-ds/ There was a BC thread around that time too
