Likewise for electric 👍

‘You can have all the lights and pyro and dancers you like, but if you sound like that, all you need is a piano’

Funnily enough just listened to it, only thing could make it better is some bowed double bass towards the end 👍

How I used to have to get DB to gigs when I also took the wife kids in the back No spare possible back then.......

How much of a problem would it be to put another bass in the Mini?

Agreed 👍

This is the desk I use and at £250, if you have the space, it’s a bargain 👍 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/146030788472?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=NJtMSw-GTWu&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=155UlNbXQGW&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

And BTW, this thread is a great example of why Fender have given her a Sig 👍

I hear the Peter Kay Precision is coming also 👍

You're correct I just checked 👍

Very bling, '58 in blonde with anodised plate and gold hardware. There was one for sale on here for a few years, I was really tempted

Most parachutists have never needed a backup ‘chute….

This ^

Fender Custom Shop - or the team that became FCS - did a very short run a long time back. Lovely thing 👍

I know, it's quite amusing at times isn't it, but that's the meejda for ya 👍

Do you drive? If so when you started learning it was complex and required a lot of concentration. Over the months and years it all becomes automated to the point that you can drive for hours without realising that you're accelerating, changing gear, indicating, braking, checking mirrors etc without thinking about it. This happened because you've done it so many times. Play the parts over and over and over again and the same will happen. Two bass parts I struggled to learn were Diamonds on the Soles of Her Shoes and Hit Me With Your Rhythm Stick. They both flow now without me having to think about them. In fact, if I start to concentrate too hard on what I'm playing when I'm playing either I'm more likely to f*** up 👍

Yep, best of both worlds, John East is a magician 👍

OK, I am now 100% an Adele fan 👍

I always take a backup bass .....

In certain light I think I can see a line where it's be refinished at the edges of the contour, but I take my hat off to whoever did it, great job 👍

Speak to Clarky about it, he's aiming to restructure the space-time continuum in the near future 👍

I must admit, I'm enjoying it. She appears to be one of the current wave of artists famous for producing relatively sad/introspective ballads while at the same time recording some much less well known up-tempo stuff (James Arthur is another god example, took my daughters to see him a while back expecting an evening of melancholy and was instead treated to some great music and some great musicianship). And yes, her voice is something else when you give yourself a chance to really indulge it. Hell of an artist. And I didn't realise it was Pino, makes sense, the playing and parts are immaculate

Ebay roulette is a good way of putting it. and if you do it late evening no matter how drunk the bidder, there's always the chance the same is true of the seller, who might inadvertently accept a stupidly low offer as the result of the booze. I've never done that of course

I do nothing but cause you pain Owen 😀

I stripped one 18 years ago as it had a custom finish that was a bit excessive. I was anticipating glorious grain, but instead I got almost white poplar. It took stain and oil well, but you can't have grainy where this is no grain. BTW, NEVER try to strip a SUB, nothing commercially available touched the finish, I ended up using a chisel IIRC
