  1. We used to order the same Gibson acoustic guitar 6-10 units at a time, for whatever reason, the Montana acoustic dealership orders always came through us at Manchester shop. we’d sit and compare them and even same day of completion, same spec, out of the box guitars sounded different. Better/Worse is always subjective but some were vibrant and alive, great for strumming, some were dark and woody/dead which was crap for strumming but ace for flat pickers. Anyhow, that’s my anecdote on production variables.
  2. One in one out... out bass was a £500...in Bass £1750 still...one in...one out...
  3. Jenny has seen all of the above listed basses. Never the receipts...
  4. Now then... I literally pulled that price out of my bottom. knew it wouldn’t be cheap, but at that juncture I’d start seeking out an original 4005
  5. It’s a totally new composition just for you
  6. If it’s not a massive text, send me a photo - my drummer is Lithuanian and speaks fluent Russian.
  7. Haha. They’re a thing mate...just find it so odd. Like dictaphone notes to a secretary. ”I don’t want a conversation and I can’t be bothered to text you...I want to talk at you...”
  8. My wonderful wife has very few flaws. but one thing I cannot accept is the relentless use of voice notes instead of text messages by her and her mates, and colleagues. On WhatsApp they press and hold the mic icon and witter on about whatever, so an inordinate amount of my life is spent listening to... ”well, she came round and I was like - what you doing here at this time, and I was like...” and ”are we doing week 3 of Macbeth with year eleven from Tuesday or Wednesday because I’ve not got the PowerPoint ready yet” It does my head in. So on another thread I posted some music. I’d already sent it to a select few - now @Cuzzie is someone who I respect massively and I really appreciate his enthusiasm and healthy constructive criticism... Today was different, he replied with...A VOICE NOTE. Not one for swearing or violence... here’s how I replied
  9. “So much so...the sadowsky should be sold...” hahaha
  10. There are about 5 or 6 legitimate fender P’s on my list.
  11. That’s really nice, sort of half New Order, some Tears for Fears and some Depeche Mode. I also hear a bit of Gordon Gano in the vocals. Cool.
  12. Much darker than burgundy mist. Gibson do a thing called Heather Poly Mist which is more like fender burgundy mist
  13. I’m ordering some Dunlop finish restorer or meguirs swirl and haze remover - also going to make the ding near the controls more invisible.
  14. Having a moment. I sit and think what 20 years means. Means a lot, cannot believe how much has changed.
  15. Really? colour is nice. chrome pickups are cool. it’s a bass. theres 3
  16. He’s retired now. Doubt the new lot give a significant shite. Hence all the new models and seemingly increased output. Imagine that.
  17. Olympic is cream, Arctic is a bit less so.
