  1. Which classic bass can they go after next? Maybe a Rickenbacker clone, or a Spector NS2?
  2. Depends on the dream expectations I guess. That Mariah Carey song was streamed 101 million times one week in November alone: https://www.billboard.com/music/chart-beat/mariah-carey-all-i-want-for-christmas-is-you-number-one-15th-week-global-200-1235550829/ (although admittedly not just from Spotify)
  3. I've seen a figure north of £320k - definitely a nice little earner. I'm sure there's a fair few artists living the dream even off Spotify streams every Christmas, and probably a fair few estates paying out to heirs.
  4. They are fantastic amps, I love mine!
  5. Yeah, the bassline to the Slade tune is quite fun to play. Our singist/de facto BL flat out refuses to do any Christmas songs, so I use that bassline as my soundcheck at this time of year 😂
  6. Two biggies here:
  7. A source for confirmation: https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=7A4EAAAAMBAJ&pg=PA42-IA1&lpg=PA42-IA1&dq=polydor+"499+8686"&source=bl&ots=FQUGozxu7p&sig=ACfU3U1zcPpov7eQHxNJun4dxDftgCgXEA&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjOqv--zZiDAxVVWUEAHUnzAaUQ6AF6BAghEAM#v=onepage&q=polydor "499 8686"&f=false
  8. A quick internet search suggests that's a legit phone number for the old Polydor office in London.
  9. If I had more cash to splash then I'm sure I'd have more, but as I haven't my current crop will suffice
  10. No matter where I'm up high, I always get that intrusive thought "go on, just jump". No idea where that comes from, but it is always there.
  11. Best purchase was definitely the Elf, which has proved its worth beyond any doubt. I don't think I've made a bad bass-related purchase this year. Which is nice.
  12. Anything with any slap in it
  13. From afar that looks trypophobiatastic, but up close it looks lovely
  14. Including one banned former member!
  15. From experience the good nature can turn nasty if anyone chooses to not participate in the shenanigans. It's pretty much the main reason I stopped playing at uni.
  16. Go Your Own Way. Despite the rest of the band thinking it's a banger our singist despises Fleetwood Mac and despite our 4/5 rule won't even entertain the possibility of us doing it.
  17. That's a real shame, you all sounded fantastic.
  18. Pretend Best Friend - Terrorvision
  19. No, the Elf has a minimum load rating for speakers of 4ohms. As I understand it, having nothing plugged in effectively means a load of infinite ohms, which is greater than 4 This is the case in general for solid state amps, but is a definite no-no for tube amps.
  20. £201m Euromillions rollover tonight...
  21. If it has to be spent frivolously then I'm getting one of those Harley Benton fretless Jazz basses. If I can use it for something else it's going towards paying off my Barclaycard.
  22. They may have, I think the Two10S was £750 the last time I looked but I could be mistaken. Inflation's a pain in any event.
  23. They need to update the text though as they've just blatantly copied the Four10 page.
