Just in time for Christmas too. I'm glad that you found my effort so motivating.

Merry Christmas to you and I hope you enjoy that lovely SG as much as I have.

Normally, I'd say don't worry about getting bogged down in trying to nail a particular tone, just play it and have fun with it - no-one's going to notice anyway (unless you're in a Slade tribute act - in which case, kudos to you)

However, I played the same tune at a pub gig last week and used my trusty Yamaha Attitude. The combination of split P and neck mudbucker gave it an authentic, satisfying glam rock 'thump'.

PS, also used same bass a couple of months ago at a wedding for 'coz I love you', to same satisfying results.

Noddy must be one of if not the hardest singers to imitate, I have seen lots of people do reasonable jobs of most singers but Noddy`s rasp tone is unique, one of the best singers in rock IMO

And a Merry Xmas to you Misterwogan! Forgive me if I seem a bit over the top on the subject of Slade but here in the USA Slade fans are few and far between.
