  1. [quote name='slobluesine' timestamp='1360427198' post='1970213'] ffs someone needs to get the floyd into therapy and help them all get over Syd Barrett hey, what a feckin yawn they all are with him. i'm not a floyd fan so dont get what all the fuss is with SB, what exactly was so great about him? [/quote] Without Barrett there never would be any Pink Floyd. But that's exactly what there was, Pink Floyd without Barrett. Artistic bereavement. New Order probably had a similar experience.
  2. [quote name='slobluesine' timestamp='1360429230' post='1970299'] have to say Rick Wright (rip) was a really underated keyboard player, did he do any solo stuff outside of the floyd? [/quote] Two solo albums: 'Wet Dream' (1978) and 'Broken China' (1996) and various albums with other people including Syd Barrett's 'Barrett'.

  4. [quote name='walbassist' timestamp='1360398959' post='1969725'] Will do! [/quote] Thanks, let me know what happens.
  5. [quote name='walbassist' timestamp='1360357777' post='1969441'] Shall I ask if they can put you a custom set together at the same time? [/quote] Yes, please, that would be good.
  6. That sounds on the long side. The 760N-XL is only 37.75" and silk is close to the tuner.
  7. [quote name='walbassist' timestamp='1360355558' post='1969375'] Would a string the same length as the ones I need do for you? If so, I could ask them to run off an extra E string and package up a third set (with the other three at regular length) for you? [/quote] Hang on, I'll have to measure it. Where is the 38.75" measurement? Is it silk to silk? Ball-end to silk?
  8. [quote name='walbassist' timestamp='1360355195' post='1969363'] What length do you need? My Veillette sets will be 38.75" long. [/quote] A-D-G are standard long scale but the E string needs the extra long version which, even for the 760N black ones, are difficult to find in Europe. I got them direct from La Bella last time.
  9. OK, let us know how they are. I might try them on my Takamine B10 which also needs order direct from La Bella.
  10. I had a Precision with a double J humbucker at the bridge. I sold it because I was only ever using the P pickup.
  11. If I like something I like it, and I'll explain why to anyone who is interested. I don't understand why anyone would feel guilty or embarrassed about such a thing.
  12. [quote name='chrismuzz' timestamp='1360276393' post='1968119'] ... fellow musicians ... [/quote] Being 'fellow musicians', or not, seems to be what was in dispute.
  13. [quote name='kevin_lindsay' timestamp='1360275516' post='1968096'] Here's one of the vids, you'll be able to access the rest from here I reckon: [media]http://youtu.be/owm1OVzC7o4[/media] [/quote] This video is private.
  14. [quote name='kevin_lindsay' timestamp='1360275192' post='1968085'] Just search on YouTube using Musselerran [/quote] They are all private now, you need a login.
  15. [quote name='Lord Sausage' timestamp='1360274813' post='1968073'] There's nowt there! [/quote] They were there 20 minutes ago, he must have deleted them in case we were accidentally entertained.
  16. [quote name='Lord Sausage' timestamp='1360274221' post='1968053'] How do you pronounce either? [/quote] Pronounce it however you like, on Basschat no one can hear you anyway.
  17. [quote name='Lord Sausage' timestamp='1360273301' post='1968025'] Where can i here this Antiloco's music? [/quote] There's a Youtube link in his signature.
  18. Why not use a PA cab with it's own pole? I've seen people do this and I'm sure people here have done it for upright bass at least.
  19. [quote name='LukeFRC' timestamp='1360269892' post='1967927'] good post Mcnach. this thread did make me miss the big beef chief just a little. [/quote] The BBC versus Antiloco would sell a lot of tickets I think.
  20. [quote name='Doddy' timestamp='1360269702' post='1967922'] One reason not to....'Stranger on the Shore' OK-2....Acker Bilk [/quote] I have to admit to quite liking old Acker. But I was really imagining myself as Sidney Bechet.
