  1. Those Ric cases always seem to break around the feet. Great taste in basses, shame you have to sell. GLWTS.
  2. News of the World - The Jam
  3. The Lumberjack Song - Monty Python
  4. Fire - The Crazy World of Arthur Brown
  5. Wherever I Lay My Hat - Paul Young
  6. Poker Face - Lady GaGa
  7. I Can't Stand Up for Falling Down - Elvis Costello
  8. You Spin Me Round - Dead or Alive
  9. Wishing Well - Free
  10. One off fee for each release
  11. Uncle Anaesthesia - The Screaming Trees
  12. Active EQ Basses: I know it's an unpopular opinion, but apart from an old Westone Thunder 1A, I've never managed to get the sound I want out of a bass with an active pre-amp. I've owned a few, including StingRay's (2EQ), an SB1000, a G&L L2000 Tribute, and a few others. The SB, 'Rays & G&L were nice to play, but I couldn't get that sound. Went back to a passive bass, and there it was. Flatwounds: tried them, didn't get it.
  13. Nazi Punks Foxtrot Off - The Dead Kennedys
  14. Damnation Alley - Hawkwind
  15. Fixed it for you. 😄
  16. Hessey's in Liverpool is long gone. Only ever bought a couple of things from them, as they were too expensive for my pocket at the time, but tons of drool-worthy gear. Famed for where The Beatles bought some of their equipment. There used to be another shop on Woolton Road IIRC, but I can't recall the name. Curley's was always my favourite when it was on Stanley St. (next door to Hessey's, and round the corner from Probe Records), always used to have a good selection of basses in. They're still going, now on Renshaw St. where Taskers used to be.
  17. Fade In, Fade Out, Fade Away - Colorsound (Mike Peters & Billy Duffy)
  18. If it was too loud for the members of the band, imagine how the punters felt.
  19. Most definitely Electro Music on Doncaster, great shop, great staff. I recall the veritable joy of discovering a whole floor of basses & bass gear, loads of variety, not just the obligatory FSO's. Bought my first 4003 from there (as well as many guitars, amps and other music related stuff).
  20. Fight Like a Brave - Red Hot Chilli Peppers
  21. Big fan of D'Addario Pro Steels on my 4003. Tried a few different types, but the Pro Steels just sing IMO.
  22. Running Free - Iron Maiden
  23. Sorted for E's & Whizz - Pulp
  24. Son of a Mustang Ford - Swervedriver @AMV001
