[quote name='lojo' post='1016859' date='Nov 8 2010, 08:13 PM']Anyone who doesn't rate Sir Paul, should understand that he was producing and playing incredible lines back then, not against the backdrop of today, where there is 60 years of top players across many styles can be viewed and rewound at the click of a mouse, mp3s, DVDs, concerts on TV, lessons online Back then most bands had to physically pass a single record from one person to the next just to learn a cover song He may be easily over shadowed now and for sometime, but he was a major stepping stone in what we know today[/quote] yep i couldnt agree more

Very sad news ,thoughts are with his family ,rip mick.

Wow that site is great , thanks lojo , never knew about it but now cant leave it alone lol

Some stunning finnishes to be sure ,but not sure if i could gig with one as the bear glasses getting thrown may scratch that high polished finnish!

After years of loving the smiths and seeing them and sir mozza a few times this is the first time i have actualy sat down and tried to play one of there songs. so i thought i better start with my fave all time track , This charming man . what a talented chap andy was, which of course i knew any way ! i read somewhere on u tube that johhny marr wrote all the baslines and andy rourke just played them , so wondered if there was any truth in this ?? any other smiths fans on here ? well i wonder lol

ok now i feel pissed! whats the idea of the frets being like that then ? never seen it before.

looks nice ,never tried one out ,what sort of money are they going for ?

Looks nice ,i am after a 4 string fretless atm ,what do you think postage would be to uk? cheers

Some really interesting points guys ,decided to try and lower the action on aria a tad and see what happens , may get all sorts of buzz and have to take it up again .

Woops i have just been looking in general ass dicussion lol!

ugley imo

I was just reading a thread where the action was described as being about the thickness of a pound coin at 12th fret . so just popped up stairs and stuck a pound coin under mine at 12th and its tight on my old ibanez roadstar and a little loose on the aria pro 2 sb 1000 , so was wondering is this a good low action or would you get something like a penny under a really good one ?

Great track ,great band ! good luck .

Love the look of the rics but never played one , what they like to play?

Great stuff ,we have our first paid gig at the end of january ,so far we have just done a jam night at our local pub which holds them once a month and that seemed to go ok . good luck with yours .

Well said

Great work gp ,i just had a go at it but cant get it fast enough but will keep trying. keep posting the vids i and from what i can see many others enjoy watching them

i would love a read if its not too late to be added to list please?

What a top bloke ,love his comments about not being there to show off his licks just to play the bass for that track . great stuff!

I dont think playing in a covers band is pontless at all , i have played in origanals bands years ago and got close to a deal but never quite got there so then went on to play covers and 50/50 mix ,i love playing all sorts and a good song will always be that and as long as you get a kick from playing it thats all that maters in the end!
