Marvin

I've always had to buy my own, My bassing has been frowned upon.

Sounds like he's cooked your cab so IMO he owes you a new cab. It broke down while he was using it it's his responsibility to stump up for the repair or replacement. Had a similar incident many moons ago. I used to leave my amp (a huge warwick combo) at a mates where we used to jam. Went for a jam one afternoon to find some -------- had completely fried it. The lousy piece of excrement who used it refused to admit responsibility and so I had to fork out for a new combo. I wish I'd done what Mr Delvar suggested and p1ssed through his letterbox.

WHERE'S MAX. WHERE IS HE.

[quote name='silddx' post='728899' date='Jan 29 2010, 04:35 PM']Thank you very much, Alex Just for you and Marvin, my favourite action shot of the Milk Bass.[/quote] Call the mods. We can't have topless people on 'ere.

I'm almost as bowled over by the case lining it's wild. Cool bass as well btw. You're a lucky man

[quote name='alexharvay' post='729033' date='Jan 29 2010, 06:28 PM']GAD? What's that? Gear Acquisition Disorder? Where your GAS gets to the point of being beyond a syndrome and becomes a disorder?[/quote] A precise and eloquent description. Is there any treatment?

Looks good. Love the look of the Forte. [attachment=41439:Forte4wb...ckbg.JPG.jpeg]

Early ZZ Top. Always dig the Top. Some of that guitar work is sublime and woefully underrated

Could be interested, depends on where and when

[quote name='silddx' post='728862' date='Jan 29 2010, 04:06 PM']"Do Gooders"[/quote] It's got to be THE most stupid fu@king expression in history. The notion that doing good is somehow the wrong thing to do, what sort of fu@king mindset is that? I know, let's all go 'round being complete sh1ts to each other, that's got to be the way forward. W@NKERS! Rant over. Apologies for any offence that may have been caused.

[quote name='silddx' post='728841' date='Jan 29 2010, 03:54 PM']I'll have a chat with her if you like, I can be very diplomatic.[/quote] She's now laughing heartily and still saying no. I'm off to sulk. With regard to political correctness and health and safety they have definitely suffered from urban myth syndrome. PC is quite a simple concept, it's just having respect for people and taking into consideration your actions. With regard to the flag incident in Birmingham it would be interesting to find out the full facts behind it. Usually these decisions seem to be taken by a person of authority who has arbitrarily decided to enforce a decision. Where non England for supporters even asked? Much of what is regarded as Health and Safety law is in actual fact no such thing. More often than not it is how certain individuals have interpreted guidelines. The HSE only ask that employers and employees take sensible common sense precautions.

You're right he is quite nifty. I gave up because there were too many licks and I couldn't remember them all and it addled my brain. I want to play alternative and punk now (because I know what I'm doing there)

[quote name='silddx' post='728833' date='Jan 29 2010, 03:48 PM']Does she know it's now at the bargain price of £675, and I'll chuck in the antique fish for free? What's her number? [/quote] She's a tough nut to crack when it comes to money is my wife. Even the fish didn't sway it.

[quote name='silddx' post='728821' date='Jan 29 2010, 03:41 PM'][/quote] Stop showing off the white Warwick, it's tantamount to torture you evil swine I'm going to have to lie down in a dark room for a while. The wife said the black Warwick looked nice as well, I said 'it's for sale', when I mentioned how much she lost interest What's that funny stunted looking thing at the end with the maple fretboard?

Welcome.

A hearty welcome from the westcountry.

[quote name='thinman' post='728025' date='Jan 28 2010, 07:57 PM']Someone's bound to have pointed this out before but isn't "Fretless Precision Bass" a contradiction in terms? Wasn't a Precision called that becaue it had frets, i.e. it had precise tuning, as opposed to all previous bass instruments being fretless? Must get more to do....[/quote] Have you contacted Fender about this gaff!

[quote name='RhysP' post='728055' date='Jan 28 2010, 08:16 PM']Christ on a bike! I didn't know John Merrick had two uglier sisters.[/quote] [quote name='silddx' post='728061' date='Jan 28 2010, 08:22 PM']He had a fair number of them going by that thread.[/quote] Now, now then. They're probably really nice people. Look they're smiling a lot.

A Salsa exercise cd the lovely wife brought home from salsa classes. God it's awful. Fake smile, it's lovely darling.

It's definitely Flea on my album version, must admit I wasn't aware of an alternative recording. But I don't get out much.

[quote name='silddx' post='727745' date='Jan 28 2010, 04:11 PM']Have you seen this thread mate? [/quote] Is it me, or does that thread make no sense whatsoever? Like when you post on here one post leads to another bit like a story but that is just so random.

Thoroughly agree with the last 3 posts.
