  1. The instrument I've had for longest is my first ever bass, this '64/'65 Höfner Artist 2 that I bought from my metalwork teacher for £20 in 1982. Pretty much unplayable, at least one of the pickups is fubar. I really should get it going again, if only for old time's sake.
  2. Jesus wept. If I had 3k I'd be in the car right now. Sounds like an absurd bargain.
  3. Please note that trade offers must be sent via PMs folks. Ta.
  4. Help to clear up my confusion... ...is it pronunced 'hot one' or 'ho tone'..?
  5. We've all been there.
  6. Daughter's wedding on Saturday. Speech written, proof-read and practised. Suit collected from cleaners. Car getting valeted tomorrow. Fingers crossed for the weather.

      Enjoy the day.

       

      I read that Sylvester Stallone's now with wife No.3, his first marriage was rocky and the second was rocky too.

      Fantastic. The weather was amazing, a 24 hour window of glorious sunshine in the gloom. I've never seen my lass looking so happy. Managed to make her cry (happy tears) with my speech, so a result there too :lol:

  7. Grey Day - Madness
  8. The 35P4 is a properly great pickup, it bellows like a horny moose. I put one in my Q4 and it transformed it beyond all ken. Absolutely superb. This bass is beautiful.
  9. Double Barrel - Dave and Ansell Collins
  10. I struggle to attain even a single μBootsy, to be honest.
  11. This glorious piece of music. https://youtu.be/b7x80iSz4nk?si=I2J-bL6UYNjlrDkA
  12. Top 10s, top 100s, 'the greatest...'s, they're all nonsense and this one is no different. Music isn't a damn competition.
  13. Oh good choice. The first thing of his I ever heard was Trashman, love it. https://youtu.be/wKMbKxsSrp4?si=nPDnGDTzCPPxevQ5
  14. Hi Does the £10 each for the wall hangers include postage? I'd be interested in taking both.
  15. No No No - Dawn Penn
  16. Papa's Got A Brand New Baguette - Mr Brown
  17. Goodbye Pork Pie Hat - Mingus
  18. "Mork calling Orson, come in Orson..."
  19. Crying - Roy Orbison
  20. What's New Pussycat? - Tom Jones, tidy like
  21. Oi. You're talking about my ska band's core audience there Admittedly it's not my favourite from the set, but it is surrounded by absolute bangers so I'll let it off. The one song we all loathe and will never play is My Boy Lollipop, which seems to be getting a right kicking in this thread There are many songs I dislike but few that I actually hate. Freebird is one, Layla, Cher's 'Believe', but for me the #1 unflushable turd is The Mavericks' 'Dance The Night Away'. Fingernails down a blackboard.
  22. The very last vocal line is a complete giveaway... "Me and my baby in a 69"...
  23. As if I didn't feel old enough already...

    I've just found out that later this year I'm becoming a great-great-uncle. 

    Jeeves, bring my zimmer frame.
