  1. He definitely didn't make the headstock. He doesn't have nearly that much talent. I almost bought a bass with that exact headstock a couple of years ago. He has however, done his usual trick of setting the tuners at jaunty angles and totally ruined the setup.
  2. I like it! I don't like the price tag though. I wouldn't pay £900 for it. If it was priced at around £300 it might be tempting. To be fair, I'm fine with most basses that aren't generic, bland Fender shaped.
  3. Lean on a wardrobe.
  4. I love the Beatles, but I think I'd rather do time than sit through that again.
  5. Nothing to see here.
  6. Somebody please buy this. If I was in the UK I'd be all over it! https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Ibanez-Gio-6-String-bass-read-description-no-Postage-/294632665569?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l6249&mkrid=710-127635-2958-0
  7. Vintage were probably the best made value for money instruments around until Harley Benton came along. I used to have a Les Paul style Vintage guitar and it was ridiculously good.
  8. I've never even rated him as a guitarist. He's a one trick blues pony who writes and plays extremely dull music. He should be flattered someone was willing to pay a tenner for a bootleg CD.
  9. The man is a total c0ck!
  10. If you have, or have access to, a midi keyboard and computer, Toontrack EZbass does a ridiculously convincing job of emulating a real bass guitar.
  11. "That doesn't seem right to me....." Yup! Pretty much sums it up.
  12. When I left my old band they put out a shout for a bass player on their Facebook page. Bass guitarist wanted. No experience necessary. We'll show you how to play it. Just about sums up the level of credit bass players get.
  13. My advice would be, if you've already been stung 4 times. You should probably move.
  14. Yeah you're right. They're definitely sh#t! Having watched the documentary, I can honestly say, I highly doubt their music will ever catch on.
  15. Good luck. Had many a good neet in't tarn back in't day.
  16. Want one! 😳
  17. Actually I have one of your wireless guitar systems. It's great value for money.
  18. Hi. Welcome. I know you from your kebabs.
  19. Yup. I feel exactly the same. The first episode was great, watching all the behind the scenes stuff and the birth of some amazing songs and ideas. But by half way through the second episode I'd well and truly tuned out and found myself playing with my phone for most of it. I suppose it is a lot more interesting for people who know about the producers, sound engineers, etc. But the Beatles were well before my time and something I've only got into in recent years. So I have absolutely no idea who any of these people are, and the series doesn't really go out of its way to explain it. From my perspective it's just hours of John, Paul, George, and Ringo, p#ssing about in front of a load of hangers on, who all talk over the top of each other with really badly overdubbed audio, so most of the time you have no idea who's talking or what's going on. I was a massive fan of the way Peter Jackson did They Shall Not Grow Old. It was an absolutely amazing piece of work. But despite absolutely loving the Beatles music, I'm finding this extremely disappointing. The whole thing could have been edited down to a three hour documentary and would have worked much better imo.
  20. Great work. That looks superb. Much more subtle but with an underlying menace. 👌
  21. He's not very nice to the fat controller.
  22. As much as I like the Beatles. I'm finding each episode about an hour too long. There's only so much of watching them clowning around I can take before it starts to get tedious.
  23. It's all fun and games until someone lets Yoko near a microphone. Then I want to smash the telly.
  24. It looks like Mr Sneeze ran into a wall.
