Dealing with feedback with an uncompromising drummer
oldslapper replied to geoham's topic in General Discussion
Not going to help you by the sounds of it, but a good drummer is able to play at any volume without “compromising their style or whatever it means”. You could suggest using rods instead of sticks. I find these type of band mates frustrating. But it sounds like you want to keep him onside. Good luck. -

Going into a guitar shop and not buying anything..
oldslapper replied to skidder652003's topic in General Discussion
There’s a joke in my family that wherever we go on holiday (UK or abroad) I’ll find a guitar shop. And yes, I’ll usually buy something, more so these days with so many high street retailers closing down. But it’s usually strings or the like. -
Hondo II H-1181 - longscale longhorn!
oldslapper replied to Paul S's topic in eBay - Weird and Wonderful
I’m aware it’s a punt, and it’s covered in scratches and dings. No idea if the truss rod works and what condition structurally the neck is in. But from images it doesn’t look like anything I can’t sort. 🙏🤞 -
Hondo II H-1181 - longscale longhorn!
oldslapper replied to Paul S's topic in eBay - Weird and Wonderful
Did a bit of research and reviews on this model. All had good right ups. That Dimarzio with the switching seems to be the star billing. But I always thought that the Longhorn design is cool as flock but I don’t get on with short scale necks. I’m a bit worried about the strap pin placement as I tend to like the horn strap pin on the 12th fret, like Ps and J style. But I’ll get over it, coz I’m shallow. 🤣 I’ll do a review. -

And replied Rob. cheers John

As title. Off an Encore Strat. Nice neck perfectly useable. The line on the back of the neck is not a crack or split, it’s a stain run or something of that ilk. Free for collection or £10 P&P

I’d want to know (if I joined a band) how the last incumbent “left”. Says a lot about people how they deal with others. Although of course you’re likely to only hear one side unless you can be bothered to find the ex member.

Any questions for Gail Ann Dorsey? - Podcast is out! Check post

It’s ok, it was a joke, a reference to past arguments about the use of music stands. -

Darn it! I wanted Gail to know how disappointed this community is with her use of a music stand -
Badly placed decal too, let alone the wonky machineheads.

For that price I’d want a taxi thrown in to get me to the fret board. Have you seen the action on that??

Ha, I know what they paid for that. Nice profit if it sells. I have one. The body, hardware and pickups are superb, I wasn’t keen on the neck profile, but it was well enough made. I put a P neck on mine and it’s retired my other basses.
