    FWIW the Fender Performer has 17mm string spacing. May explain why the happy slappers it was aimed at didn't take to it.

    I would say most people new to playing blues could probably do with understanding some of the conventions. For a start the 12 bar isn't a rigid structure always to be followed. Cover some of the popular variations in length and chord sequence. Note that many songs will change to a 'more standard' 12 bar for a solo. Understand the difference between major and minor keys, things that rapidly give away the key and how this influences how and what fits. Things to play until you suss the key if jamming... Different turnarounds

    I can confirm I'm planning to appear (n.b. veggie). I just tried to persuade my brother to come - he plays bass amongst other things. Not sure if he will be coming yet.

    I notice a terrible habit he has of playing with the second joint of his forefinger. Not that it's bad technique, but it must be awfully confusing for beginners as it looks like he is fretting the wrong string.

    There's a 30.5" Epiphone EB3 on Reverb for £300. Looks lush. https://reverb.com/item/35140541-epiphone-eb3-white-short-scale-30-5

    I recognise that bass 😉

    There is a reason why decent tuners have a mute setting...
  12. Stub Mandrel
    Seems odd that a 30.5" EB3 hasn't been suggested, especially if a Thunderbird appeals?

    My first gig with this band... Free entry. Be there or be somewhere else...

    To be honest Feelgood to Bridge of Sighs could be achieved by stomping on a flanger to all practical intents and purposes.

    Damn. Now we won't be able to tell who's recycling Facebook...

    It isn't Linda Snell organising this pantomime, by any chance?

    Just on the Bax discounts: For the AT212 Slim they have "£1,630.00 £1,095.00" The Bax 'reduced price' is £45 more than I paid Bass Direct for mine. Nuff said?

    From a Kay owner, I've had this for about 42 years... also had a p[lay of Jamie's Kay Bass at the MBB, which was the SG style one...
  23. Stub Mandrel
    That would explain most of the price difference
  24. Stub Mandrel
    Looks pretty good for a Kay!

    Interesting that in their pics it looks very different from mine and the pics on the GR bass website.
