  1. Great to see Taylor Hawkins near the start just over Jerry’s shoulder. Looks like he is enjoying himself.
  2. Just had a tribute listen on headphones. Little Lady is a great album opener and A.L’s playing is storming! I was 14 again.
  3. RIP A.L. Hard as nails, like his bass playing. One of my first bass heroes.
  4. I liked his approach and the time he took. Helpful review imho. Thankfully we didn’t have to watch him unpack each bass 🤪
  5. SOLD. Pictures to follow. As title, set of 4 in line right handed large plate machineheads. 1 of the heads is a tiny bit loose, but functions without issue, just wanted to be up front. Comes with bushes and new screws, but the screws are chrome not black ones. Never bothered me using chrome screws with these and (to date) not one audience member has complained about this. Also band members haven’t noticed, although I think this “mod” makes the bass’s core tone have more heft/mids/scooped. However this may not be your experience of course. £15 posted.
  6. Do people actually buy this stuff for that money? Who are these people and who are there carers? I’m wearing some socks that I bought from a branch of primark located in the same city who’s train station services London. As we know, London is where John Lennon visited once or twice to record some of music's most influential albums. £4K for both. May split.
  7. I quite like reaction videos. The ones that I get lost in are watching people listening to a song for the first time and being moved to tears because of the emotional impact. Music can be soooo powerful. Funniest ones are people watching the BeeGees for the first time and being shocked that they aren’t black. “Opening a box” videos are for the hard of thinking.
  8. I get it when I’m walking and a tune will start in my head at the pace I’m walking. Then I have to keep walking at that pace, otherwise it spoils the song. It’s a nightmare in crowded streets when some Ramones tune appears out of the blue 💨
  9. £18 posted? Passive volume and tone control plus piezo and jack kit. New and unused, bought for a lockdown project that I didn’t manage to start. price includes p&p
  10. What’s under the scratchplate? I quite like these without one on, but not if it exposes wires or holes. Thanks.
  11. No need Jon, I’ll have a look at what else I’ve got. PM me an address.
  12. Got a bass neck you’re welcome to. Would you like pictures and measurements? John
  13. And a foster home has been found. Please close now Mods.
  14. If she doesn’t find a foster home, I may sand her down and give her a nice rockabilly paint job.
  15. it’s obviously not an original, but…. Had no idea this was posted on YouTube. I was helping these guys test their new camera and audio kit. A mate sent me the link. Not sure how I feel about it as I hate my voice and hate seeing myself on camera. It’s why I play bass for others, so I can hide. But I guess it’s out there now, and you only grow when you put the lights on.
  16. I was chatting to a colleague at work on Wednesday who casually mentioned that he had cut down a load of Ash trees on his property over the years and used it for fire wood. When he described the size of the remaining trunks, I suggested he stops burning them.
  17. Will the outcome involve tuners at unnecessary angles and a sharpie????
