LOL! I actually read that... Well how about The Lion Sleeps Tonight...

Back to the true spirit of this thread... Stevie Nicks, guilty of a degree of meteorological inexactitude when she claimed 'thunder only happens when its raining'.

Serving chips in a potty? How convenient...

Compare and Contrast Judy Dyble's piano work (RIP): With Dave Hill's guitar riff...

Yesterday, sand down with 600 grit, fill a few dinks, then primer, then find more and more tiny dinks to fill, ended up with almost a whole can of primer going on, then smoothed off with 600 grit. Then a final coat this morning, followed by a Speed Awareness Course on Zoom 🙄 This is white, honest! later today, about 5 or 6 coats of Daphne Blue, although my phone seems to want to shift it towards @Teebs green... it is a lovely blue in reality! Tomorrow the gloss lacquer! Already put a couple of coats of gloss on the headstock, and decals. The area around the truss rod is a bit poor. Might try staining it dark brown...

Half teh band were in eth Soiuth Wales TNT - AC/DC tribute (now Black Angus since my bro' left), I think it sounds a bit like Airbourne.

I've made up my mind! DECISION BASS.

I feel faintly queasy...

Looked it up on Ultimate guitar. How does someone get 32 votes and 4.5 star average with: "Originally tab of this song is too hard to be tabbed so I made a easy version "

I can't see my own bloomin' link!

My brother's band have recorded a lockdown song - using iPhones and Bandcamp. Not sure if this will work:

I think its £88 now, I guess demand has gone up!

Curiously that's exactly what the instructions tell you to do, but I think its a translation error...

No I want a standard body shape, I'll use the supplied hardware and only upgrade if I need to - rumour is its pretty decent stuff considering the silly price... £77 - I couldn't even buy neck, fingerboard and body timber for that.

Excellent, thank you. I've run out of TLRTs so have a smiley :-)

Ah.. farcebook link? Invisible I'm afraid...

It started with one comment, but they just kept doubling.

So rather than a Hardly Bent-One, you prefer a NoBend?

Just demonstrates how the knob on the end is to stop it slipping out of your grasp at a critical moment.

I could play a straight bat assuming it doesn't have any kinks in it I could go with: "Hardly Bent-One"

Oh that's been done.... I blame the minions...

Seeing as how I've cut the very end off it... CIRCUMCISION BASS

That's a U-Bass...

Excellent, good job Si. Nothing like using self-made tools to give you a grin 🙂
