  1. Me too, mine kept asking about my tax arrangements.
  2. Yes! They're too twangy when new. After a while they settle into a fantastic chunky thump, but with definition. Sound very good indeed with a pick. You can always EQ that 'piano' sound back in if you need it.
  3. Wrong website again. *Puts on Batman costume and takes pound of lard out to garden shed*
  4. Had the same experience with Fat Beams, my favourite rounds. Forget about the Marcus association, it means nothing.
  5. No need - I'm in the cupboard under the stairs and later on I'll be under the sink with the Brillo pads and stuff.
  6. Or you could use your phone with earbuds and listen while you crap away to your heart's content.
  7. Has anyone said, 'If ply bodies are good enough for Jens Ritter...' yet? No? OK... 'If ply bodies are good enough for Jens Ritter...'
  8. Given the time I could quite happily listen to all of CAN's output in one sitting, no problem. Their albums are so different from each other - in fact the tracks on each album are so different from each other - that it wouldn't be any kind of chore.
  9. One wonders which sort of ads you do refer to butter. Aeiough!
  10. Surely as we get older and high cholesterol looms, we should be buying basses that play like a non-dairy spread? Or possibly something made from olive oil? Then you could advertise your bass as 'Top Benecol' or similar. Still bullplop - just different bullplop.
  11. Dont hold it with a death grip - nice and relaxed is the key. Then you'll never drop it. Turn your amp up and pluck the strings less hard.
  12. This. I use nylon Herco Flex 50 and have never dropped a pick in 40 years. Even at really hot, sweaty gigs.
  13. Oops, sorry. Better not mention the goat, then.
  14. You really shouldn't put downers in her tea.
  15. But surely in that case it would be a 'stinky wobble pasty', or something?
  16. Only you can say. I wanted to try them for ages but was put off by the price. I'm glad I finally did, they're my favourite flatwounds. They are actually good value, unlike rounds they just sound better and better over time and they will outlast you.
  17. You really must, it's a masterpiece of comedy.
  18. I called it the Sh!te Beetle. But then I call rabbit shyte 'tods', so I'm not quite sure where this leaves me.
  19. You leave the board out of this.* *Readers of Confederacy of Dunces will understand.
