@hillerup, you have been missing out. I made karbonader for tea the past two days ... with glazed carrots and red onion (because shallots are a king's ransom).

Tasty! Made karbonader last week, although we usually serve it with potatoes, brown gravy and corn. :)

More awesome stuff! :)

Gotta love Wilko with his frantic stage appearance and guitar technique! :)

Wilko is brilliant, what a trio they are. I've seen them a couple of times, the first time by accident when they were supporting a Status Quo reunion gig in (ironically LOL) the Manchester apollo in 2014, just after he found out about his cancer apparently. That was a great night, They were fantastic and the Quo were brilliant too

We don't get much in our neck of the woods and never that close to home and at £30 for two tickets and all going to charity I couldn't say no. God knows what they will sound like in a north Wales quarry and without Noddy's sweet voice, time will tell but I suspect Dave Hill will insist on bringing enough cabs to cope.

Mike Peters is worth a ticket too, another local to me boy, had a very hard time with cancer over the years and devotes himself to fundraising these days

Scheisse! I'm ordering a new PG but I thought maybe I could go guard-less. Forgot about the rout. Nuts!:(

Bad glue job:( It IS my "backup" bass. It's not bad for a 7ender. I woulda rather had a black/ebony EB-0, but none were available when I needed a short scale. BTW, it's really a Squier if that helps.:confused:

I like my 7ender, deffo not getting rid of it under any circumstances and proud to say it too but it is modified 100% new letrics and a bridge oh and tuners, it's an absolute beast now, thunderously dark sounding. Best of all it's Mexican and it's a cracker :roflmao: Piss those purists right off!

Fun bass, love mine (looks identical to yours). My only complaint is the anemic bridge pickup. The neck pickup is pure bliss though. If you have the stock pups and want to up the game on the bridge pup there's a simple hack that works great...
Squier Jaguar Short Scale Club Part 2

I kept the stock look on my Jag but routed under the pickguard for a battery compartment and also installed a John East custom made dual two band active preamp. She's a screamer now!

No pic no bass, so here she is next to a couple of other mods I did (Jag SS with East preamp, Squier Jazz 5 converted to '62 look with stacked knob control layout, Bronco in name only with vintage Stingray preamp and dual lipstick Humbucker with triple shot coil split and hipshot bridge with P bass ashtray)...

I'll look at that link but I only use the P pup and you're right about the bridge pup. I should superglue it "off". Being a Gibby man since 1967, I'm a little surprised how good this thing sounds.:thumbsup:
