It could go roundabout.....

Me neither. To expand on this topic, I was searching for info on Paul Simenon's Jackson Pollocked Rick and Paul D'Amour came up in the hits. I might now check out his playing.

I've just been reading that he joined Ministry a couple of years back.

Piggy? Wrong band. Unfairport Convention

Chris Square Steve Ho..... (anyone care to fill in the tribute band names?)

I remember her from Coronation Street. Wasn't her husband a square, too?

Are you saying the circle has been squared ?

Well, there's been a not untypical courier experience. 10:41 this morning I am notified by both text and email that the guitar is out for delivery. I had it, last night, redirected to a pick-up point since i'd be at work. So I get to the shop, just before 7pm when he closes. No sign of the package. I get home and spend 23 minutes on the 'phone to DHL, who fail to pick up. Checking the progress just now, I notice that a delivery attempt has been made 5 minutes ago. Fuc king helll

I spotted that. Figured I'd leave it to the Basschat squad to weigh in.....

Was browsing through guitars owned by musos and spotted this...... Chris Square

The above is based on the 'Nordic Mandola'. Here's one with pin-point capos(!!). And believe me, there is a market for these instruments.

I also play Celtic bouzouki and a few folk-instrument makers do make those extended range instruments.

In all seriousness, the late Michael Hedges would have rocked that!

Words eaten. Just been dinged by DHL and the geetar is out for delivery tomorrow! Couldn't track it but at leasts it's here.

Sting, probably.

I've resigned myself to a minimum three-week wait on this shipment.

One of their HB Juniors to modd. It's disappeared, probably stuck in the International hub near Coventry.

Something already bought, dear boy.

Great.

Yeh, the 'Taking back control' mob really fkd it for everybody. Ordered something from Thomann last week and I can't yet track it. Anything s/h in continental Europe that catches my eye I won't trust to shipping; I'd rather fly over and pick it up wherever fiscally beneficial and if the seller can agree to travel with reason.

Anyone bought gear from the EU recently? Am trying to get an idea of shipping times and UK customs holding stuff up.

I quite fancy one of these. £700 or so? Would not expect to have to modd at that price.

GG influenced the Gothfather? Really?

Kneebody is Fife-speak for 'Nobody'.
