Re: Sweet V63 action by Will Lee of Fab Faux

. I prefer when bands take the songs to different places . One would be "Got to get you into my life" by Earth wind & fire. I've heard a lot of very interesting takes on the tunes over the years. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=88379bqfxKE ?v=88379bqfxKE https://www.youtube.com/watch?...

Re: RRF activity

Re: Alternate tunings

God I love Joni Mitchell! Not that I have a bunch of albums or anything, but her harmonic sensibility is gorgeous and the songwriting on Hejira provided some of the best vehicles for Jaco ever. There's an English vid of her singing and playing dulcimer on the song California in which her time is so...

Re: Yardbirds Lead Singer Electrocuted in 1976

In 1966 when all the electric madness started my brother and I turned old Radios into amplifiers to get a sound of rock'n'roll and played in the basement where the heating was installed. I am very lucky that I didn't got electrocuted those days. Once I hit one of these metal heating pipes with the s...

Hi Alex - congratulations on a great buy! Not the only one in Europe though, as I scored one of these in the UK a few months back - photo attached! 330S Tobaccoglo Resize.JPG I know that two of these limited-edition Rics are now owned by a well-known Forumite in the US, so that accounts for four of...

Works perfectly, had it on my 360V64 and still is on my 340. Do it. No spots left on the ramp from the felt washers, could polish out with no problems.
