    [quote]The colour is ‘Porsche Green’ apparently… The bass was painted in flames by a drummer friend of mine who once had a vague notion about getting into custom basses… he did two of mine before deciding it was too much like hard work…

    He also re-inforced the body with wooden dowels, steel pins and tons of filler… it destroyed the acoustic tone, but now it will support the weight of two grown men, which can be just as important in a rockabilly band 😉

    Yes geoff I was a proud member of the Blue Moon Boys Irish Drinking Team, around that time I also did a short tour with Pep Torres.[/quote]

    Well it looks great, I want to get something painted on mine really soon but im pretty paranoid that it will turnout bad and I wont be happy with it, think I will just have to bite the bullet and find a good artist and see what happens.

    Yeah definitly needed more, one thing kind of weird too which I dont know if it can be changed in the settings or not but it always seems to treat posts from yourself as new posts.

    So like if your the last person to reply to a post and then you go back to the main forum it will say 1 new but its yours that is new which is a bit weird. Nothing major though just pointing it out.

    If its IE that your running you can try running it with no 3rd party extensions, sometimes one of them will bog everything down. You can either go to start – programs – accessories – system tools – Internet explorer with no extensions

    Or if you dont have that showing up in internet explorer go to tools – internet options – advanced tab and remove the check from enable 3rd party extensions. Then close IE and reopen and try it.

    If that works then it means one of the extensions installed is screwed up which is minor, if it doesnt work or your using something other than IE then I have no idea dude.

    Well either way that sucks, a few posts of yours are helping me quite a bit, I like that little exersize you posted of just different slaps with the open string patterns, ive been mostly just working on pizz lately as it doesnt wake everyone up like slap does haha but I like the idea of that post of yours.

    Any other little practice routines like that you recommend for slapping practice?

    Yeah I hate when that happens, So many times I have written a detailed novel explaining something then it gets lost and I rewrite it half assed and its not nearly as good as it was before.

    Anything more than a few short paragraphs now and I always copy it, I have a ton of buttons on my mouse and one is a backspace shortcut which I hit a lot of the times and lose all forms that are filled in.
