donslow Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 Just acquired two new basses to add to the collection for an absolute steal Ibanez SR300 Fretless Squier MB4 i get them home, all excited to get them out of the bags and have a tinker, Mrs donslow calls me to the kitchen for a job and then.....DISASTER....!!! Doesn’t look like much but a craft knife expertly (accidentally) jabbed into the finger hurts like an absolute mutha..... cant play, too much blood, too much pain so now I have to wait until it’s healed before I can tinker with new toys..... S*?#...... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hooky_lowdown Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 That's karma, after your absolute steal. 😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donslow Posted May 29, 2019 Author Share Posted May 29, 2019 That’s the missus plotting to keep me from making too much noise in the house I suspect.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donslow Posted May 29, 2019 Author Share Posted May 29, 2019 At least it’ll give me time to work out if the monstrously high action on the fret less is due to the monstrously sized bridge saddles or something else... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mangotango Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 (edited) Owwwww…….. I feel your pain. Well, kind of. A couple of days ago, I managed to give myself a paper cut from a cardboard box lid. I made (as everybody does) the hissy sharp intake of breath noise, and couldn't help but ask myself…. Why is the sting/pain/grief from a paper cut TOTALLY DISPROPORTIONATE to the length/depth of the cut itself??? I'm recording tomorrow with the band in which I play bass and I was worried in case I'd have difficulty. From a paper cut. What the heck is going on there?? Edited May 31, 2019 by mangotango Improved word order. And improved words. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pea Turgh Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 Super glue will sort it out (it was originally developed to stick skin back together in the Vietnam war or something). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
