do you mean the whole bridge assembly ( which is major surgery )
or the plastic saddle ?
re saddle: if its compensated you will need a left handed one ( readily available )
                 if its not compensated ..just turn it the right way round ( if theres slots in it )
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/LEFT-HAND-Com … 35c0afe910 ( just an example )

make sure of the sizes ( thickness etc )

it might be an investment to buy a tuner ..then ' over tightening ' wont be an issue
+ try a lighter gauge .. some guitar builds dont like ' piano strings '

this is 26 merton high st sw19..music shop long gone it seems
looking at the git its probably quite a while back now

tel 020 8543 3938 eagle solicitors..they might know ( about the music shop ? )

hi and welcome to the forum

nice guitar..is it yours ??

excellent sound...excellent prices
peavey have a good track record...some of my gear is peavey ( PA )
+ my new neighbour just gave me a Peavey deuce 2x12 guitar amp
cause hes jacked playing and he wants the space..cant be bad

hi and welcome to the forum
there's shed loads of suitable gear available...is there any reason why
you cant get your husband involved in selecting an amp since he appears
to be a practising musician?
i think a good starting point would be a 50watt 1 or 2 speaker combo...
but for less than £200 you might be looking at s/hand

google for trusted names...VOX/MARSHALL/ORANGE/PEAVEY/LINE6 ETC

local music shops might be worth a visit ..but take someone who knows
a little bit about what your after

no doubt some useful suggestions will be forthcoming

whether you get sorted this weekend though might be a tight call

as far as fretting goes..the bass is exactly the same as guitar only an octave lower
and the top E and B missing ..the strings on a bass are E A D G on a guitar
you've got E A D G ( B E )

if you learnt a bass run then played it on guitar ..it would be the same
only an octave higher
try playing the E chord on your bass

scales are the same for all instruments ..you can play pentatonic scales on a
flute if you get pissed enough

a pentatonic scale is just a scale with 5 notes instead of the usual 7 ( heptatonic )
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentatonic_scale

whether a song is ' better ' is very subjective...its still a cover
and in cockers case its a completely different version to the beatles
ringo was never a singer to start with ..but it will always be the classic version
because its the original
you can always rely on cocker to ' do his own thing ' though on any cover he does
plus his own stuff will never be 'topped' no matter who covers him
for me ..the original can never be topped ( even if played by better musicians/singers )IMO
the only exception would be perhaps..if the cover was taken from a LP
and was never aired much in the first place by the original artist

this is from another thread

if you dont use any open strings all things are relative...so if you play
a lick in the key of A at the 7th fret ..then  play it in the key of G
..play it at the 5th fret ( since G is 2 frets lower than A ..or a tone or 2 semitones )
if you play it in A# then the 8th fret is the starting point and so on ( for the same sequence of notes played in an identical manner and starting on the same string )

if you play the open C chord at the first position ( using an open E and G )
then move your fingers up 1 fret...everything goes pear shaped because everything
has gone up a semitone except E/G )so if you learn a lick in A ..dont use any open
strings..then you can play it in C by just playing everything 3 frets higher

google for the CAGED system of chords for similar principles involving chords
thus leading to barre chords ( no open strings )

some songs are very key specific
eg BLACKBIRD by the beatles can only be played ( as the record )
in the key of G because the G open string contributes to a lot of the overall
sound..learn a bit of it then try to play it in another key ( without using a capo )
if you can please post a clip

if you dont use any open strings all things are relative...so if you play
a lick in the key of A at the 7th fret ..then  play it in the key of G

yeh same here...not my type of music..but the playing's top notch
well done i bet you've got loads of followers on youtube
why dont you write some of your own stuff and get that 'aired' instead of playing covers
nice one ROCK ON...('sod the covers'-ozzie osbourne 1969 / polyal 2013)

thought you'd got a marshall ?
