  1. [boring post about Parcelforce really doesn't need to be cluttering up this thread ]
  2. I wish there was a Motorhead cover of a Dylan song, that would be a certainty for this thread.
  3. Similarly, I was always going to prefer the Jesus And Mary Chain cover of Who Do You Love? to Bo Diddly's original. (The JAMC very graciously wrote a song entitled Bo Diddly Is Jesus. It's not their best.)
  4. I prefer the cover by 90s Polish band Hey... ...but then I would. What a voice.
  5. Wikipedia has CA as having left The Alarm in 2017, but still being in The Mission, Theatre of Hate and Spear of Destiny
  6. Whenever YouTube foists a latter-day performance of the Sisters with Craig Adams' bass lines being churned out by whatever Dr Avalanche's bit on the side is called on me, I can't help but recall Black Lace's performance in Rita, Sue and Bob Too
  7. I had one bass, and then I took it to spend a little while with the tech and I was back to zero basses, and I thought, I'm never making this mistake again.
  8. I've just bought something from them. It's all gone very nicely so far, I'll report back in few days time, once my schedule has allowed me to be in for a delivery.
  9. I'm so pleased to hear this worked out for you
  10. If you can't appreciatr the sensationalism in the labelling a cheap bass having an incorrect spec in uts listings as FENDER FRAUD then WTF? indeed
  11. You might not think this image is clickbait.... ....but look at his recently views: G+L Series 750 L2500 unboxing - 5.5k Lakland 55-64 Review - 3.9k Reverend Triad review - 6k Inside a cheap Gretsch pickup dressed as FENDER FRAUD - 24k
  12. If Gretsch weren't owned by Fender, then the story would be, cheap bass has incorrect spec in listing, and number of people who cared would be scarcely north of zero. Clickbait rubbish from someone I had previously assumed was above that kind of stuff. "FRAUD" 🙄
  13. I got my ruler out. At least ½" wider on the left.
  14. "Depth at 1st fret: 22 mm" that's a proper neck 🤩
  15. I had a 604. It turned out not to be the bass for me – apparently I like them simple – but the build quality was excellent. Something I didn't appreciate enough at the time was how well matched the passive and active sides are. And I miss the very comfortable body. Thinking how much mine went for, this is an excellent price.
  16. A week before Russia invaded Ukraine, Waters told an interviewer on Russia Today that talk of a Russian invasion was “cow poop ... anybody with an IQ above room temperature knows [an invasion] is nonsense”.
  17. I've only just realised that the BB body shape is thinner on the controls side of the strings I've cropped this photo so that the strings and pickups are in the centre:
  18. Did you buy tickets to see Queen and find yourself shocked and dismayed by the absence of Freddie Mercury?
  19. Apologies for asking if there might be one single piece of luggage that fits me. Thank heavens there isn't.
  20. While it's good to see that decent shoulder straps are available, none of these will wear high enough for me. Guess I'll just spend the money on taxis instead 🚕
  21. Am I understanding the photo right, that the strap seam is here:
  22. Thank you — I just measured my Gator bag: from the bottom to the strap seam is getting on for 60cm. 10cm less than that would have me 😛 Or to put it another way: my BB is in it, and the straps join around the 8th / 9th fret, and I'd like them down past the 12th fret, between the tips of the horns
  23. It feels like I've looked at every photo of every gig bag on the market today, and the one which made me think, that might be what I'm looking for, was a Protection Racket one. I'll try to work out the dimensions from the photos. Otherwise, I think I'm at a loss. Just stick being annoyed with the Gator bag, I guess.
