@rocknroller912 sounds like an expensive technique. I think I’ll stick to beer if it’s all the same to you. 😉

Ummm… Aldi Ferrex 120mm depth bandsaw (£149 plus delivery) is currently on the website. I might of just bought one. *whistles*

Posted by: @ That band is certainly growing @jamesbisset. Fantastic riff. Loved it. Thanks @russ. I only forgot to add the frikkin horn section, didn’ I!

so if anyone is complaining about using an electric guitar @rocknroller912 nah, I just like to tease. What’s the first thing you do with an acoustic guitar these days? Plug it in!

Editing that it then a job for iMovie on my MacBook. My ‘main’ camera is a Panasonic Lumix, which I bought when my previous Panasonic Lumix died. I only discovered last month that it was only resting...

That was a bit clever @jamesbisset - just a bit! At last, having not one but two Yamaha RGX A2s paid off! Although so much electric seems to have caused a little disquiet. I reckon your return to the...

@russ Jack of all trades. 🎸🥁🎤🎹💻😉

I'll have to get the reissue as I haven't got a spare £1000 for the original. Neither have I. But I increased the value of the others by sitting on my own original copy. Vinyl doesn’t like people sit...

Heh - glad you’re enjoying it @russ. You’ve unerringly selected the most popular track on the album, and it wasn’t even written by me! For those interested in such things, I was playing my Dan Armstro...

Thanks @russ 🙂 Caedmon has (have?) a new single just out. All recorded and patched together remotely. Strange times.

Who is the Quirky woman with the Harp. Just love her. Pauline Vallance - www.paulinevallance.co.uk and on Facebook too. She’s brilliant, isn’t she. So much wit and mischief!

An Oily Rag in my workshop is one that was used to apply finishing oil. Thanks Mark, and thanks to everyone else. All really useful info. And turns out that an oily rag means different things to diff...

PLEASE DO NOT USE WD40 FOR ANYTHING. Thanks for that @boo. That explains the flaking paint on a refurb I did a few years ago. My partner’s dad was a watchmender. She knew that cleaning a watch might...

I consider myself fairly handy. I’ve stripped down and rebuilt bicycles, ripped out and installed kitchens, bodged innumerable guitars… but I’ve never, ever had an oily rag. And yet every set of DIY i...

The acoustic workboard (inc shoe and leg) is an essential, acoustic building aid and this video shows how to make it... Is a workboard with shoe and leg going to be an essential building aid for the ...

Live performance all right. Fourth take, believe it or not. Glad you enjoyed it. The appeal? That’s a story for another time 😉

Got my foot tapping again James. Thanks @Russ. It was bit of a nightmare. It was the first take and I was running out of time and then, at the end, realised the guitar wasn’t plugged in. So I had to...

Enjoyed your performances last night @marcel & @jamesbisset. Thanks @Russ. And every instrument on there was acoustic! (originally) BTW, @marcel get back in the queue with that deprecation. You d...

Audio: Humbuckers followed by transducer followed by both. Attachment : transducer vs humbucker.mp3

In my box o’ bits there languishes a Belcat GT-1000 transducer pickup which I bought (£8.95) years ago for a possible mandolin mod which never happened. I’d forgotten about it till now. So I stuck it ...
