I used a Stew Mac crowning file that's curved on one face at both ends (looks like an elongated 'S'). A little costly, but does the job nicely without a struggle, which makes for a nice finish

There's so much to be said about Chuck Berry and an RIP thread where people pay their respects to the man perhaps isn't the best place, so here's a thread for discussion of the man and his influence on music Whatever people say about the way he lived his life, I've no doubt that music wouldn't be what it is today without Chuck Berry. Rock and Roll just wouldn't be what it is without him. Without a doubt, the song I've played most often on stage is Johnny B Goode, everyone knows it. Later edit; Chuck's songs have been on my mind all day. This is one I won't forget A truly sad day Over to you

Just bought Paul's SWR SM400 - been after one of these for ages. All quick and easy, everthing as you'd like it Cheers Paul ! Tom

looks like a cross between a Burns and a Woolworths audition

I recently found a Duracell professional in a bass that was new to me and also wondered what the difference was. I'll be following this thread with interest

Ibanez 7 string ! https://youtu.be/6NjGX0c1tDs

If only this came up a few months ago...

Hi from Loughton !

Have you contacted Fender UK ?

Niiiiiiice

I've just been given this for next weekend. Should have some fun trying to get that sound out of a P bass with a pick and walkabout scout

Oh boy.. The Who The Spiders from Mars 10cc The Beatles The Beach Boys Queen The Motown house band

My first genuine Fender Precision was a 72/73 Maple maple with a white scratchplate I'd buy it back in a heartbeat

Another vote for All Along the Watchtower by Hendrix. I know Comfortably Numb was voted as the greatest guitar solo, but Hendrix's work easily walks all over that for me

Paul Weller (not the Jam) LP's. I just don't get it

Try Surrey amps http://www.surreyamps.co.uk
