Not sure about the wooden scratchplate.

Like the look of these but not sure about that bridge. Still, I'm sure Ned knows what he's doing....

[quote name='Heathy' timestamp='1457969471' post='3003483'] I suggest that we all behave like this guy at our next gigs and report back on what happened. [/quote] You go first.

I'm watching that. Really nice condition but already more than I'd pay, especially when you add the ridiculous P+P charges.

[quote name='FuNkShUi' timestamp='1457962916' post='3003375'] I've seen plenty who look like they don't want to be there. [/quote] You should have come over & said hello.

[quote name='karlfer' timestamp='1457962406' post='3003361'] Oh lighten up, it's a bit of fun [/quote] Music isn't fun, it's SERIOUS.

Some people have a significantly different idea of what constitutes "entertainment" to my own....

[quote name='timmo' timestamp='1457959258' post='3003311'] I am reading these comments and hoping he won`t be too offended if he is a basschatter [/quote] If he's willing for that video to be seen in public he's probably incapable of being offended.

Some people might admit to the dance moves but nobody will admit to the slapping.

[quote name='leschirons' timestamp='1457881066' post='3002595'] Pinball - Brian Prothero. I loved this when it came out. [/quote] I was going to say this, then changed my mind at the last minute & said something else.

Lovely colour! -

Despite not having picked up a bass for best part of a year & not even really thinking of myself as a bass player anymore I have suddenly been gripped by the intense desire to own an Alembic. Sheer madness.

Brand new Hiscox Liteflight case for Fender Jaguar/Jagstang style guitars. I bought this the other day for my CIJ Fender Jazzmaster but I'm not happy with the fit so I'm going to sell it & get something more suitable. Will be fine with a Jaguar style guitar due to the shorter scale length. Inside material is a sort of green/grey colour. £80.00 price includes P+P, so that's a saving of £20 on the price I paid for it on Thursday. Payment will have to be via cheque or bank transfer as I don't use PayPal. I'd also happily trade it with a hardshell case that is suitable for a Jazzmaster. (I do have photos if you want to see them but it's a Hiscox case so there's not much to see really). -

D'you think this will become another celebrated lawsuit bass?

I wonder if the cease & desist order from Jim Hall has arrived in Denmark yet? -

It doesn't look any less comfortable to play than a Rick.... -
Wow! -
[quote name='ped' timestamp='1457709665' post='3001206'] I didn't notice the pickups, I thought they were the Bartolini pickups used normally - can you tell me a bit about these? Looks like they have a 'bp' logo? [/quote] They're Bartolini's Ped, the older ones that Zon used to use had that little bp logo on them -
Back in 2003 I went to see (ex Zappa guitarist) Mike Keneally play a solo show in a little club in Cardiff. During the first half I noticed a guy standing to one side of the small crowd who looked familiar. When the interval came I could contain my curiosity no longer and went up to the guy & said "Excuse me, are you Dave Gregory?" It was indeed. Had a brief chat to him about Skylarking as I'm a massive Todd Rundgren fan & I knew he was too. A really lovely bloke. He got up & played a few songs with Keneally at the end of his second set & he really is a bloody great guitarist.

[quote name='cytania' timestamp='1457720125' post='3001347'] The crucial 3 albums; Skylarking Apple Venus Nonsuch Followed by; Wasp Star English Settlement Oranges and Lemons [/quote] Yeah, I'd pretty much agree with that.

[quote name='ialma' timestamp='1457706194' post='3001161'] @tertiumquid : Good ol' Italy @ped : yes it is. I was not aware that there Legacy are very sought after because of the special pickups. The sound is to die for, aggressive, warm and extremely musical. [/quote] It's the Polyfusion preamp that makes them sound so good too. I used to own two Legacy four strings - best basses I ever had.

Seems like a good idea for somebody that would like to access internet based radio stations but for some reason doesn't or can't use a computer.

I would assume the lower the action the more rattles & buzzes you'll hear when unamplified, especially if you don't play with a featherlight touch. I don't know personally as I've always preferred my action on the medium to high side.
