Bang Bang - BA Robertson

New neck is on... setup & truss rod tweaking required now. Once it's all set up and working, I'll strip it back again and apply the oil/paint/decal. Very happy with the look. EDIT: setup complete, action now down to a much healthier 2mm. Neck is lovely. Rich is very happy bunny

Splash Say The Fishes In The Sea - Doug Wimbish

Power Windows - Rush YES! The album is worth having just for JG's sublime little fills on 'Family Business'.

A *fingers crossed* gig with Train To Skaville at the Cheese & Grain in Frome, supporting 'SOS' (Abba tribute band). Should be an absolutely belting night. (Now watch it all go horribly wrong...)

I don't understand the level of hate they get. I'd rather listen to their stuff than an awful lot of the dross masquerading as music at the moment. Disagree with/ridicule my opinion if you want, I don't care. I've got a properly stinking cold -- just in time for xmas, spectacular timing -- so I'm feeling massively grumpy.

Glad it's going so well and keep going with the jazz... you'll get to like it, honest Merry Xmas and a bassy New Year

My brother in law spent time with the Gurkhas when he was posted in Brunei back in the day. He reckons that they are a.) the most charming, friendly and loyal people you could wish to meet, and b.) triple-hard little sods who you do not want to annoy in any way, shape or form whatsoever. The Argentinians on the Falklands were absolutely terrified of them and their kukris for very good reason.

Sorry I'm a bit late to the party...my Pro 2E measures as follows: From centre of the 12th fret to the centre of the front pickup, 295/296mm For the same measurement for the rear pickup, 379mm.

The least said about him, the better IMO. The least said about him, the better IMO.

Without the Communist Party, There Would Be No New China - Cao Huoxing

...ting.

Anything with Yamaha on the headstock.

Go for it, except for the headstock re-shape. Keep it stock (and therefore easily re-sellable). Make sure any mods you make (apart from the paint, obvs) are reversible -- keep all the stock parts. If it goes well, you might decide you want to try the same thing with a better base instrument or with fancier components, e.g. Warmoth body, Status neck, etc.

Mm-hmm, yah yah I hear what you're saying, but let's just carpark that idea for a moment while we address the elephant in the room... do you want bearnaise sauce or peppercorn?

Special Brew - Bad Manners

Supermassive Black Hole - Muse

One subtle re-shaping later... Its broken nose bump is gone, and I've blunted the bottom point somewhat. You're right, it does look better for not being so spiky.
