Pfft. Willy rub.

I now want a BB with just that double pickup where a MM pickup would be. I hope Yamaha read this and realise I’m worth a signature model.

Sort of JJ/P - full passive but push/pull on tone pot. Think that’s some clever “extra bass” capacitor or something. currently still at work as I had to do a house visit on the way home and didn’t want to leave it in the car. Needs tweaking to taste, and I’ll be binning the strings off (50-110 😟) I have some fresh ones in the house.

BB714BS Lava Red

Well...

The strap will separate the washer from the paint.

I’ll buy some grolsch and send you the washers 🧐

Just buy some grolsch

Was just about to type “you spelled shite wrong”

I got told £58 for a Yamaha BB guard effectively a jazz size by someone local

Yeah will be here tomorrow

Imagine being a tree, happily swaying in the wind - and then being felled to make such a pile of utter shite. Awful.

Dunno. Mr Postman is bringing it...

Shocked myself - pretty close, if not bang on.

Regal resophonic? Something like that - doesn’t look like the National basses.

Hate all the colours in the current range - and the BB 424/1024/2024 range were poop too - they needed to be bolder. they did red metallic for a bit. Wouldn’t mind a 424x in that, but a bit of LPB/OTM would suit the aesthetic wonderfully. Like the newer ones, teal which looks ace but too dark and that midnight blue on the Japanese model which looks almost black.

Lava red that...

And with that...

I’m with you took me about 10 listens over a month...

Listened to One Hot Minute on the way to work - bloody ace. Listened to I’m With You on the way home. Fantastic.

Hmm. Tuesday 22.31. No vino on Tuesdays.

Depends how much wine i’d consumed at time of writing...

About right... @Beedster

There was another thread on that entire album. I set up a playlist on Spotify of what it should’ve been in my mind - but I deleted it when I moved to Spotify family by mistake. Trying to delete my lads god awful and seemingly endless lists of turds.

Oh yeah - me too. It’s not god awful by any stretch, just super slick and a bit overweight. The sound of a commodity juggernaut. ”throw £6m at this and we’ll get it back guys - no sweat” Whereas Californication was like a polished but more spontaneous set up. The “off the map” DVD really shows JF and Flea bouncing ideas, enjoying playing and coming up with lovely parts - the Modulus sounds ridiculous on that recording too. When I watched Funky Monks; BSSM sounded different, better...I could hear things I hadn’t heard before. Absolutely Ace. I would listen to a bad chilis album any day over something else - because I’m a pathetic fanboy.
