  1. my 78 P-bass had little damage, one owner from new which was a lady in Portsmouth. I reckon it saw home use only. Since sold it on and my 2 70s remaining basses are so heavily modded with parts I expect collectively they'd tell more stories than Jackanory!
  2. For me it's this [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dN3GbF9Bx6E[/media]

  4. [quote name='yorick' timestamp='1332873803' post='1594327'] Orange Terror Bass and an SP210 cab, now there's old skool [/quote] Oh yes
  5. All good reports from me; I've seen both Floyd Pepper with the Open Soul Band and Loz196 play with The Daves a few times. And YEARS ago seen Linus27 when our old bands played together. Had a few BCers at the Case Hardin shows too
  6. I have one that is now quite genuinely buried in North Watford Cemetery. Long story but it was a musician who died. In terms of the bass; A lot of bang for your buck I recall, but the body was heavy as hell
  7. We found a picture online, contacted the artist (a lady in North Carolina) & she was so flattered she gave it us for free. We then paid about £100 for our booklet layout [url="http://www.amazon.co.uk/Every-Dirty-Mirror-Case-Hardin/dp/B005J4NY3W/ref=sr_1_1?s=music&ie=UTF8&qid=1332958003&sr=1-1"]http://www.amazon.co.uk/Every-Dirty-Mirror-Case-Hardin/dp/B005J4NY3W/ref=sr_1_1?s=music&ie=UTF8&qid=1332958003&sr=1-1[/url] Hope that helps
  8. I believe you can plug a jack directly into the speakon socket. That's the set up on the SP210 although I've only ever used Speakon
  9. I've done 2 bodies and the second I felt was more successful as I used a wood dye to just bring the darker shade you get from wiping the wood up a bit more. I then waxed both and they look great
  10. Think I must have missed something!?! Sorry not on here so much... looks like you landed on your feet though
  11. Cor, my head hurts reading all this - at least I don't have this problem with my Funders
  12. I try to live my life as a page turner, enjoy it whilst it lasts but when it moves on so do I
  13. [quote name='Mylkinut' timestamp='1331006109' post='1566204'] I also like Sonic Blue. [/quote] On a cat? Nah, tabby or tuxedo for me
  14. Nice breathy vocal & the bass sounds up my street. Site looks good too. I'm guessing the drummer's not from Hounslow?
  15. Most of my main players have been sunburst which is funny because traditionally it's not a colour I'd go for. I can only assume I do it to upset Wayne! I like white and I like natural finishes too
  16. We've never spoken about it or coordinated our look in my band but thankfully everyone makes an effort and looks like they are in the same band. Three of us dress quite similar so the closest we've come to planning our look is if we all show up wearing the similar things it may be a case of someone loses the hat or loses the jacket. I feel pretty strongly on this subject and believe bands should have a look. The danger of course is when it overtakes the music but generally I'm of the belief the band should look like they've made an effort - even if your band's look is trying to create the illusion that you haven't made the effort!
  17. I play with a bunch of liggers & barflys so the question reversed would be more applicable for me
  18. I just have a heavy duty canvas padded bag. It's folded up in the cupboard & only comes out for gigs
  19. Is the Brits still going?
  20. I enjoyed punk, although I was 3 in 1976. My musical introduction was through the cool 60s records of my parents collection. Some of their friends had older kids who in the back rooms of parties introduced me to The Clash, the Pistols, Buzzcocks, Damned etc in the early 80s. So my first musical discoveries outside the home were old punk vinyls. A lot of rubbish is spoken about music (& long may that remain) but I simply enjoyed the tunes. No real cultural significance for me. During the Silver Jubilee as the Pistols sailed down the Thames I believe I was at a tea party on Marlborough High Street dressed as a cowboy. I sat by my friend Pete and had a great day
  21. I do and Mandolin Cafe was probably the best one I used. I mainly taught myself from books. It was always fun gigging the mandolin as people automatically assumed I was a much better musician than I actually am. Ironically most audience members talk to me after an upright bass gig or a mandolin gig - everything else is just meh!
  22. I'm not massively into buying gear so much these days but it has to look right, yes. Colour isn't usually a deal clincher though - most equipment I like is old school looking (or vintage) so it's more does it play well?
  23. Nothing wrong with a bit of 12 bar. I think if bands like music that features 12 bar there shouldn't be any stigma in playing it too. I think it only comes unstuck when you have bands playing it because they feel they have to or they don't want to.
  24. because our singer had to fly out to Libya to cover the downfall of Qaddafi (he's a journalist)
  25. I have a great canvas in my living room of Keef playing a Vox bass
