I need to get some of these magical money making kazoos!sizzlingbadger wrote:I always try for a discount and RS and MP have always tried their best. I have spent a fair bit over the last couple of years though so I think I'd probably be a "reasonable" customer in their eyes :mores arc:
Having said that I was told they probably make more money out of selling plastic kazoo's and strings than the big ticket items.

I'll swap you for some magic beans
Tube amp and guitar tones straight from 1958… amazing how believable the sounds were back then, even without the modellers...

Yes it would be safe to say that the capo business is going very nicely, thankyou.

I found one at a gig we did recently, doing my bit for music retail in NZ.

Re: How many guitars do you own? A survey
THESE BEANS MAY or may not HAVE BEEN IN THE SAME PACKET AS JACKS MAGIC BEANS, I CAN'T SAY FOR SURE. ALL I KNOW IS I GOT THEM OFF THIS OLD GUY CALLED JACK 30 YEARS AGO AFTER HE CLEANED OUT HIS SHED AND FOUND THE PACKET IN AN OLD WARDROBE. I HAVEN'T HAD TIME TO PLANT THEM AND THINK THEY SHOULD GO TO SOMEONE WHO CAN USE THEM. SORRY YOU CAN'T READ THE PACKET PROPERLY BUT I ACCIDENTALLY DROPPED THE PACKET IN MY 44 GALLON DRUM OF BLUE PAINT.Polar Bear wrote:I'm listening.sizzlingbadger wrote:I'll swap you for some magic beans

Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.

It's identical to the one I own already, and my drummer hates capos with a passion so it's good to keep them around to annoy him with!druz15 wrote:throw it away

He's actually a bass player hiding as a drummer, plays guitar too, just has a weird hate for capos!Polar Bear wrote:Does he get confused about what key he's playing in?
