  1. Mine Brand x product album. Percy Jones John Giblin Mike Clark and Morris Peart Robin Lumley and john Goodsall.. off the top of my head However a tune with Phil Collins singing called Soho is irksome
  2. Anything produced by dj bobcat
  3. Should Vince Neill retire from singing? No unkind responses please and I KNOW he has earned lots more MUNNEE than me ...
  4. Thank you for that most concise and informed post. Do u "do" Facebook.?? Nice to talk to eminent voices. Someone on this thread may attract the interest of aged horse or chimike . I would LOVE to talk to Alex from barefaced. I will not want a Dunster / Dubster autocorrected or otherwise because I already have an (overkill) Trace 1528 which is 2 person easily shifted ha ha
  5. Tomorrow late morning. I will bring duct tape and carry it disassembled as u r close to tube
  6. And Tolex is engineered to be thin and resilient and therefore lighter than a more durable thickly-ish applied alternative. I'm guessing here btw
  7. I would love to visit and have a semi educated poke around at rather intricate innards. Not really proprietary because anyone can buy one and reverse engineering is a thing see tupolev b29 bomber rip off (lawsuit era ha ha ha) as an exemplar
  8. It will become a uk one if oriented differently, would it work safely in a UK household electrical circuit/circuits. Probably...back to an expert
  9. Would later today daytime tomorrow suit ? Sorry for the delay . Apologies for disappearing from view
  10. In a way I'm sorry I disinterred the topic. But as I explained I encountered him wittering (IMHO stupidly) on F/B in a different context. All the other respondents there were up for an interesting (to us) and civil chat. He was simply a gynaecological expletive / pitA . Some people on here concur with that assessment
  11. It took a while for the various glues and bonding agents resins etc to be totally up to the job. Germans used ply in too late to be useful ww2 fighter projects utilising adhesive films of some sort He162 ? That was a more formidable little deathtrap and could have been tactically significant for a while except nazis had run out of trained pilots etc etc Thank Goodness. Nice talking with you @Bill Fitzmaurice
  12. Thank you, saves me finding the exact analogy. These aircraft undoubtedly came accidentally unglued with terminal consequences but this was wartime and it was a wonderful artefact of a great designer and company too... Doesn't / didn't Tolex come unglued even from an otherwise wondrous Barefaced cabinet. I guess they didn't use tuffcab because it WILL make cab heavier .??
  13. You dont posess a tent as you can afford vip glamping ? ok yes and a Precision could possibly work 2 or 3 times which should suffice. My p5 sire, roasted neck would break easier in these circumstances wouldn't it ?? Ideally thru neck modulus style? Or status carbon this would work efficiently several times as might be needed
  14. I'd be rather more perturbed about a current Boeing operated by a shifty airline at present (leaving out generally crappy airtravel experiences as a given sort of a hazard)
  15. Thread will ideally move to off topic or at a stretch other musical items...see amended title New seditionary question. A stage invader at your big chance gig has perhaps malign intent. Do you a) hit him with something close to hand or b) emulate Sid Vicious in great rocknroll swindle. If B , bolt on neck, through or set neck or carbon fibre thru neck. Or someone else's instrument???
  16. A drummer friends dad was an artist / academic in North london. I accidentally knocked an African ironwood mask off a staircase wall and it hit the ground floor quarry tiles. I thought in terms of bass guitar disasteromundo... picked it up to pass it to him and go 'oh fk it's ironwood so it landed just on that quarry tile over there' ha ha
  17. What if you have two ( longterm trustworthy ) musician friends who live in Japan. 1 a good English speaking more jazz than rock guitarist who posts clips of elegant playing on utoob etc. Find me such and such an instrument please, my good friend Hiroomi. Me want badly a Greco or similar Rickenbacker style semi acoustic bass copy ideally left handed and pretty but right handed and marred and cheaper would be fine 🙂 mates rates on delivery etc. Cheapish basses are safer monetarily but what would you be tempted to chance your arm on...
  18. Come and try it and have a cup of tea bottle beer cigarette etc
  19. So you could attack it with a ball peen hammer a few times and it would still "work" I'd prefer that to happen to my bamboo derived gr bass cab. Buying one is a bad idea typed ten to the power of ten times. As I reckon engineered bamboo would make an excellent baffle for starters. Nice chatting to you btw.
  20. Not now the product regulation is so voluminous but who knows in 15yrs time , allegedly safe product that will do unexpected s*it . Not referring to GR Bass specifically. I would love a dubster too so no barefaced prejudice here BTW
  21. By which I mean Bamboo had been used elegantly for a specific purpose for an extreme machine that was not being used as designed. See Y'all later
  22. The rowing boats i waffled about up thread were a very well made hot moulded semi monocoque... marketed as nature's natural composite. Sure there are still Carl Douglas boats being made, see adverts on Google. Bamboo- I rode a Bamboo road bike the day before the London Brighton Cycle ride 10 plus years ago. This was designed for a time trialler sooo uncomfortable. The relatively unfit owner suffered badly and then scared the bejesus out of himself on the final / nearly terminal descent towards the sea. If you are brave you can get a lot of speed..... So Bamboo is a wonderful natural resource, how is it utilised by GR Bass ? I.e. what is the adhesive used to make engineered Bamboo laminate (for want of a better word) easy to finish prettily even a nice Veneer like ye olde boats. Nice talking to ya
  23. Good remembering name of cheapo tonewood - Agathis
