So many cool female players, including many newer* players: Mohini Dey, Julia Hofer and the queen of bassface, Este Haim, etc. *compared to Deal, Weymouth, Kaye, etc.

Down in a Hole - Alice In Chains

This Saturday Saturday week

Swingin' - Tom Petty

Neat Neat Neat - The Damned

Updated the scratchplate on my Elwood L. A bandana under the clear p/g.

There is that.

2 quality abstinence fails, right there. Well played 👏👏👏.

I spent about £1k with another big bass vendor and had a £15 delivery charge. It’s all about margins and the size of the package I guess. Still stings a bit, however.

I’m Gonna Git You Sucka - The Gap Band

Spirit in the Sky - Norman Greenbaum

Shale We Dance - Yul Bryner

Stone Cold Crazy - Queen

I’ve had tight rhomboids for ages, it’s a chronic condition. Don’t know what started it. I maintain mobility and comfort by rolling on a foam yoga roller and visits to an osteopath. Go see a physio or osteopath.

From what I’ve read, the NS Trad strings are better for arco. In terms of pizz tone, there is a YT video of a comparison and I couldn’t hear any real difference between the 2 (it’s YT and possibly not the best reproduction) and the reviewer echoed that sentiment, although he did say there was some difference. The biggest difference between the 2 seems to be tension. Beyond that, you’re into proper doghouse strings and here I have no experience of different strings, only having played one. The only thing I am aware of is that if you want to use Spirocores on a WAV, you have to have 4/4 size, as they come up short if 3/4 are used (I think I got this snippet from Golihur).

The Ibanez EHB1000S is a headless shorty with 19mm spacing, if you can source one and the body shape is OK for you.

Slippery People - Talking Heads

Why not indeed?

Cor, that looks flash, not to mention super spendy.
