    The red dot thing I mentioned a while back 👍
  2. Beedster
    I'm often not seeing a red dot with new PMs and realised this morning that unread PMs are no longer highlighted in black in the PM list as I'd missed some, might be something I've done but it seems to be getting worse rather than better?
  3. Beedster
    I've never found hope to be an especially effective strategy
  4. Beedster
    Is there a fix for this PM issue coming any time soon?

    I was in a band with a guy like that, middle if gig ‘Slap that bass Mr Bassman’. He got a look of complete indifference as I continued to play pizz as I had the whole gig. I didn’t offer my services again. All joking aside that, you’re not wrong mentioning risk of injury in picking up a new technique, anything from blisters to tendinitis, quite minor unless you’re an upright player 👍

    Without wishing to offend anyone, here's my advice re Rockabilly Slap Just don't, or at least, if you do, 20 seconds max per set

    Now you've done it @Lozz196, give it a month or so and there'll be hi-mass plectrums on Thomann at £49 each
  8. Beedster
    That is a far more common scenario than most of us would like to admit, and it's not just hi-mass bridges 👍

    To return the favour, I enjoyed this https://www.amazon.co.uk/Not-Abba-Real-Story-1970s/dp/0007146396

    Thank you Jack, just bought it 🙏
  11. Beedster
    Thank you 🙏
  12. Beedster
    Still blown away by how beautiful those two are 👍
  13. Beedster
    That’s an odd reply given the seller has stated very clearly that he’s not going to post it….?
  14. Beedster
    Frankly @Linus27 I’d simply buy a replacement fretted neck and put it on that bass for however long is necessary. It’s a crap time to be selling a bass and you may regret letting that beauty go 👍
  15. Beedster
    Have to agree, even if it was put together by Roger Sadowsky it’s still a bitsa

    Can't win can we mate 🤔

    DB people live at a slower pace than electric bass people, be patient Young Jedi 👍
  18. Beedster
    Fair point
  19. Beedster
    I'm guessing that some if it is room acoustics, sound near the stage - backline and monitors - could be very different to that elsewhere?
  20. Beedster
    Mmm, I suspect it's more than luck
  21. Beedster
    I suspect the OP would prefer you said it's all in the bass mate But wow, that is such an iconic instrument. There's been a lot of talk round these parts about the next big wave of collectable vintage, and I suspect that these late 70's black/black/maple models are going to rocket in the same way as the early 70's 3TSB/tort.rosewood models have (amazing the difference in price represented by 3-4 years in some cases, and it's as often assumed purely a quality issue, I've played some utter dogs from the early 70's). If you can afford to keep it @DaveSetchfield, keep it mate, going on that video, you and it get on quite well 👍
  22. Beedster
    ….or half step 🤔
  23. Beedster
    Not so bad at all 👍
  24. Beedster
    ......and I can here my dear old Dad saying 'But this is just noise' during the synth solo as he skulked off to listen to a Lonnie Donegan LP
  25. Beedster
    Glorious isn't it 👍
