Welcome!

I've just found this and read the whole thread. I'm absolutely gobsmacked. In a good way.

Sean and I traded basses. Good comms, nice guy. I'd happily trade with him again (but not for a certain fretless Prosebass

[quote name='gapiro' timestamp='1444216655' post='2881164'] I just found out that The doors didn't use a bassist live either.... all left hand Probably old news but eh [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JeARuYV55eA[/media] [/quote] Doug Lubahn played bass on quite a lot of their recordings, I forget which but he's certainly on Strange Days. IIRC they asked him to join, but he didn't think they were a band with a future.

Also there is a no-name knockoff which looks almost exactly like an unbadged Cirrus out there... there have been a couple on eBay over the last year or so.

I nearly bid on that. Rebuild thread please

Nice. Thanks for posting, that's an interesting read. I liked the mindreader joke

Thursday: First half, OK. Second half, not so good. Overall, could have been worse. (My singing was terrible, but I knew that before I started... and now they do, as well )

I have far too many. I can't justify it. They take up too much space and I will lose money on almost all of them. Foolishness. Edit: Peak was 58, about the time of the original post. There were also some projects, about three. Plus two uprights, an Ashbory, two cellos, two violins, a viola, an acoustic guitar, a trombone, an electric guitar, a banjo (on loan to an ex-guitarist), and access to a piano and a flute. Some of these have gone by now. And the answer is No, I can't play any of them well.

I don't know about 8-strings, but Thomann were selling Dean Rhapsody 12-string basses earlier this year.

[quote name='TheGreek' timestamp='1443524154' post='2875462'] At £14 a set you can't go wrong - I like them so much that if you buy a set and you're not happy with them, I'll buy them off you... [/quote] ... and if he doesn't, I probably will
