Wha?!?

Why you no RISSEN?

So, I’m sat in the pub having a pint and a bite to eat whilst reading this and there’s a bloke at bar talking about Benny Hill. Weird eh? 😂

It took me a while.

 

I've never seen thumb bleeders used with barrel knobs before. Its a very odd look and a weird choice as I'm not sure how they could possibly help in repeating favourite settings with no markings on the knobs.

Once again. No idea what this thread is about. 😆

The advert said the bass had a finger lamp. It should have said ramp and I remembered Benny Hill’s inappropriate Chinese accent sketch from way back. Happy Jack clearly remembers as Benny indeed said why you no risten (aka listen).

Ah I see. Nope, that one went over my head. I remember watching Benny Hill as a kid, but I don't remember the Chinese sketch.
