  1. That’s about the truth of it
  2. Looks good
  3. Agreed, amazing how many people have said that Excitable Boy has some interesting lyrics !
  4. Or this to really confuse everyone
  5. Indeed, each of them confusing the hell out of the g*******t who will always insist that the first chord in a song is by definition the root
  6. Awful wasn’t it, exact copy albeit devoid of Zevon’s eloquence and humour. Although his hair may be perfect, I doubt I’d care to meet Mr Rock’s tailor
  7. Plagiarism is the best form of flattery. Or of making stinky poo loads of cash quick. You choose
  8. Not cheap for that model and potentially very expensive if the seller is hiding anything about the issue. I had a problem with a US bought Modulus Flea, given US state law on these things the £600 repair in the UK at my own expense was the only viable option
  9. Nice album for the Zevon fan https://www.amazon.co.uk/Enjoy-Every-Sandwich-Songs-Warren/dp/B0002XED9E
  10. First rehearsal since March 2020 and we covered some band tracks. Ex guitarist has moved to drums and, having watched the BBC doc said "I'd always known about The Band but as a guitarist assumed they were a country band. But when you get into the rhythm parts, most of their stuff was really funky". My kind of drummer. First time I've played Cripple Creek with a drummer who got the feel. Singer & guitarist said "That felt really different, not sure what it was, bit it was really different". Sums The Band's music up nicely does that
  11. Yep, that finish is a design feature. I've always fancied a Precision Bass with twin SCs but sadly way more than I'd like to pay
  12. Looks like a great bass, but a bit pricey
  13. Digbeth doesn’t roll off the tongue does it
  14. Love his playing, what FL should sound like
  15. I love it Although, for some reason, I also visualised it being played by Sting (perhaps it has lute-like qualities?) which has put me off a little
  16. Great bass. Check Kent. Check New gig. Check Mmmmmm
  17. Saw that, the board is probably screwed however (and by no means an easy fix, I've had to pay for two similar examples to be fixed over the years), and there's no way apparently of viewing before buying. Even at its current price I'd keep clear given that. Money going to charity is a bonus of course
  18. Good advice, but not 100% safe. This was what I found frustrating (from email between me and DV247 last year). Despite having paid for an in-stock item in the UK, it couldn't be sent to me because it was out of stock in Germany? I think their systems are the problem, might be very efficient for the business, but not for the customer. Might be different now, but might not, might simply be a lottery?
  19. I might be wrong, but I think a big part of the problem with DV247 is that, certainly when I had the two issues I referred to above, the website gives you the impression you are dealing with a UK busIness holding stock in the UK.
