  1. How do you fit it all in ๐Ÿ˜† Please keep me posted re Mesa mate ๐Ÿ‘
  2. if you have a bad feeling donโ€™t go ahead, thatโ€™s what feelings are for ๐Ÿ‘
  3. Armies go to war with less gear Given your other listings @Chimike is suspect the National Trust comment was quite so far fetched! Don't suppose there's a 'Mesa Boogie goodies' thread on its way Hope all's well mate Chris
  4. That is a killer rig, would cost a whole lot more to buy that Possibly an understatement Great rack @Chimike
  5. It's almost as if there's a PR agency out there suggesting to bands who's fortunes are sliding that being a complete silly billy in front or a large audience, real or virtual, is a great way to get your name back in the headlights. And if only there wasn't precedent, but ........ The spokesperson for a famous tech company who used to sponsor a sports team that was continually being found to have broken doping rules said that while winning races got their brand featured on the back pages of papers, being prosecuted for doping got them onto the front page, and in his opinion most people simply saw the name and didn't think to hard about the context.
  6. And in case that has confused anyone, and especially if they've never played on of these, that is about as good a bass as can be bought these days ๐Ÿ‘ Hope all's well @Marcus
  7. There are voices in my head and they're getting louder ๐Ÿค”
  8. Sorry mate but it reads like one to me
  9. E flat is good as long as all your basses are E flat ๐Ÿ‘
  10. Not anorak if you're used to one or the other, I utterly rely on it being a D
  11. This lot turning up at my place demanding money would scare the stinky poo out of me
  12. One of my all time faves Jack, nothing obscure about it
  13. Option paralysis is a great phrase @LukeFRC. But yes, I have 8 Fender-fit necks and 8 Fender-fit bodies to play with and while some combinations disappoint, others simply excel. The Enfields however are another level, I start with P-Bass each time and slowly blend in other things depending on the song, and I have to say I'm falling back in love with playing bass, fretted and fretless ๐Ÿ‘
  14. Great idea @carlsim ๐Ÿ‘
  15. Or Spandau Ballet as they were better known ๐Ÿ‘
  16. Thanks @Clarky, yes back in the day that would have been mine, extraordinary sounding instruments, there is no other passive fretless out that that can get the sheer power and tone that these can. But, as per another thread recently, I've owned two and sold two, I think it's time to see sense ๐Ÿค” However, if you've not owned one of these, you owe it to yourself, the first gig I did with my first was extraordinary, we started with Whole Lotta Love, and when the bass kicked in everyone in the space - including the audience, the rest of the band, the bar staff, everyone - seemed to stop for a few seconds, smile, check their viscera for damage, and carry on. It was one of the best gigs I ever played PS Clarky we really should have a curry sometime mate ๐Ÿ‘
  17. Want your money back? Ask yourself, how would these two guys go about it......?
  18. Mmm, almost tempted to have it back to see if it likes my Alu more than my other mics and PUPs do...
  19. My first thought on reading this thread ๐Ÿ˜†
  20. Gigging mine for the first time in two weeks on an equally steampunk bass. Will report back ๐Ÿ‘
  21. Do you know if the neck is drop-in Fender fit?
  22. I suspect that day was the day after the gig
  23. More than a neutron star ๐Ÿ‘
  24. Too many underfoot hazards in most rehearsal spaces and venues for me to do that
