    Bad thumbs, often aggravated by viruses. I found boswellia extract (frankinsence) much more effctive than ibuprofen. But I've stopped using it after starting taking high strength chondroitin and glucosamine daily. Bass playing seems to help out as well.

    I was born in 62. I went to Uni in 1981. We used to fill a room and jam beatles songs from a tattered copy of 'The Beatles Complete'. We also traditionally sang Beatles songs at the end of our pub crawls.

    Well I like Jazz basses, and I can't think of a genre where one would be out of place. But I dont believe any bass is incapable of doing almost any style.

    Excellent!

    The Wombles may have mimed on TOTP (some of them were stand ins from Fleetwod Mac IIRC), but they used to play live for real.
  6. Stub Mandrel
    yes, I saw that too late and then didn't have time to confess my mistake!

    And you can't take on the vocals as you are a little horse...

    You need to look at the 10 watt Joyo amp. Bigger and louder, great retro look and decent sound.

    Me. Don't know how I keep it up, especially as see loads of live gigs too. I'm currently playing with ideas of founding a third band but the right vocalist will be hard to find.

    There's nowt wrong with one-finger-per-fret.

    I watched the Lemonheads perform Mrs Robinson on TOTP yesterday. The singer did the last verse in the style of This Charming Man.

    Band I saw tonight yhd keyboard player told how he had seen U2 supporting Wild Willy Barrett and John Otway, playing to about five people. So jealous of him seeing Otwsy and Barrett.

    The only opinion that counts is mine, so keep yours to yourself. 😇

    One of the greats. I have the album, the live album and the live dvd. Listen carefully to the live version, you should be able to hear me in the crowd 🙂

    Was the kettle lead earthed. May have been an earth loop broken by using a kettle lead with no earth, or vice versa providing a missing earth.

    Thanks Tim, but I'm perfectly capable of patronising myself without extetnal assistance, as I'm sure you are aware.

    Get a man to tell you how it should be done.

    Well anyone who calls their product 'bugera veyron' doesn’t lose sleep over ripping things off.

    Booker T and the MGs?

    The body outline. Either 'traditional' Fender shspe, rehardless of size. Pups... too much variation to be meaningful.

    It's a problem when the listener's ear is better than the intonation on your bass. They are unlikely to diagnose the issue, they just won't think you sound as good as they would if you were playing in tune.

    Body shape + headstock shape
