So release day looms…after all the messing about… pre save link is here https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/flyingoceans/circles IMG_6475.MOV

A very close friend of mines band had their rehearsal room emptied the night before a gig. he was a guitarist and had “spares” - his bassist had an Epiphone EB-3 and that had gone. i turned up to work the next day and lent him my Rickenbacker 4003. it was brand new. the lad, Jim (who I only knew a bit) cried when he realised what I was offering. he did the gig (big hands, Manchester) and bought me my drinks that night. i would…if there was a link. And if I were present. otherwise. Nope.

@gafbass02 the Fett decals are cool

Well… currently… A musicman stingray 5, but as a 4…I like the contours and pickguard with bongo hh electronics. that’d do it. in this colour.

Sorry guys more clarification. we’re trying new stuff out. so far comparison made most is early chili peppers meets kings of Leon. send me a pm if you’ve posted… been a busy few days. Apologies.

The pickups “look” like rb pickups. Think that’s what was alluded to.

I listened to Exile on Main Street today. apart from Tumbling dice it’s a right turd of an album

Long shot - have a double band gig booked for 26th June, Sunday - a field/stage setup. Up to an hour set. It’s in Belthorn/Blackburn. Originals preferred. We had a band set up but two of their guys can’t do it. Also open to singer/songwriter soloist if bands not available. We’ll do PA/Gear - and punters. bring your own too obviously… Sorry if this seems a bit random or is in the wrong part of the forum… Trav x

I like Simply Red Oasis Red Hot Chili Peppers Jamiroquai Level 42 bands who are cool to call “crap” in most people’s opinions… im not cool. Heh.

Rubner DB ones or Schaller Da Vinci (preferably slightly larger sized peg head)

I just said to her “go and research it all…there’s about 35 years you missed before green day…”

My daughter referred to Green Day as “the original punk band”. I’m still crying a bit inside.

Yup, great cabs.

Love that colour

Yeah, genuine. equivalent of a MIJ standard will be a decent workhorse - nice colour

I’ve read this a few times… I can take it or leave it. I gigged like a bastard from 13 years old to 34. And I don’t need to do it. I have debated it, joining a covers band just to play live… But I just don’t care. I’ve done big festivals and sh*tty pubs, full theatres and empty gig venues. I just don’t need or desire to gig much - about 4 a year would do me

Most of the Gibson j200 acoustics (50’s-60’s) had figured maple necks, as did quite a few fenders of that era. (The pictured one is a 67/8) i know with fender that was just whatever maple they had - but Gibson obviously had great stocks of figured stuff because of Les Paul tops etc. A lot of the jazz guitar luthiers used flamed maple too for necks around that time. Anyhow - it’s a fancy bit of wood - I quite enjoy the Birdseye figuring on my 2 SR5’s and the “sledge” sabre I had was beautifully figured.

Just…JUST 😎

Ooh god no, that’s a write off…dark boards only for matching heads…

oooh my good lord… id plump white pickups but…

If one of these turned up…I’d be in big bother.
