  1. You can't beat a bit of Bully on a Sunday!
  2. Smashing, super, great!
  3. That is quite the collection but as others have said it's shop prices not private seller prices. That unbranded fretless P is very nice looking, though.
  4. Very nice. But I think I may need to hand in my BC gun and badge because I just zoomed in to check out the Air Max collection! 😁
  5. What a fantastic resource all round. Great work!
  6. The squier jaguar has a slim and very smooth playing neck. Cracking little bass and not expensive. I imagine it's similar to a mustang (never played one) but you can get one for 200 quid ish. There was a red one for sale on here recently, may still be available.
  7. You just need to go all 60s, add a The and then pluralise: viz The Meat Columns. Then start a cocktail jazz trio and you'll clean up with posh hotel Brunch gigs.
  8. I've been to Yorkshire and back in a day from deepest Sarf London 3 times. Twice for bikes (which included having to book bike storgae on the train) and once for a bass (Vigier - mmmmmmmm). It's not unbelievably expensive if you go daytime midweek and book in advance. Didn't regret any of them.
  9. How do you explain why you need all of these superficially exactly the same basses to anyone who isn't a bass nerd? Or do you just not bother?
  10. Well this got me all excited so I spent the weekend with Moises and playing a lot of old JJ lines and fiddling with sounds. Got a couple of the subtleties of Nice N Sleazy and Tramp down, which was great. I had a look at some of the tabs on that site and they are patchy (some are bang on but some are almost completely unrelated to the tune or have huge gaps). Unfortunately because I rarely play with a pick I've messed up my forearm so I've got to rest it. Seems like I am not as hardy as the man himself.
  11. What a lovely thing. Never seen or heard of these before. That contoured body looks sublime. I can't help thinking of a ´slap switch´ as some kind of inspector Gadget crossed with The Hitcher from Mighty Boosh device - hit it and a big old cartoon thumb comes out on the arm from an anglepoise lamp 😆 That or it can be deployed at rowdy pub giggs if punters get too close. GLWTS
  12. Maybe it was the times. End of Thatcher. Or maybe they were just an unrepresentative bunch, but most weekends someone would end up in a ruck of some description, and it was a range of ages and backgrounds and often not with outsiders but within the group. I was never involved but it just seemed like there were quite a few hair triggers. Lots of amphetamine may not have helped matters. Then I became a raver for a few years so it was a very different scene and then moved abroad so lost touch with them all. I have known plenty of lovely metallers so certainly not going to make any assumptions about there being a connection. Just personal experience....
  13. Nice people, maybe, but I have never been anywhere near a fight since I stopped hanging around with them. Must be all that testosterone 🤣
  14. Nights Over Egypt by The Jones Girls. Easy to pick up but keeping it really clean and getting the feel is a bit trickier. And trying to nail the noodly bits in White Rhino Tea by Ozrics.
  15. I'd say possibly for a little bit in early 90s with Metallica and the tail end of GnR, but largely true. In Latin America rock and the whole long hair and leather thing was very cool for a very long time, mind.
