Good for you for doing it, and for putting it out there. It's way above my standard, for sure.
I find it a bit cluttered to listen to, personally, but that may be more to do with choice of genre.
Hope this helps
I liked them both.
'Wake Up And Dream': the short section from about 1:45 to 2:00 seems a little shapeless... ? I think maybe I'd drop an instrument out there?
'Live in a sunny day' is the better of the two, to my ear. I like the 'loose', relaxed feel. Again the transition between sections is a bit indistinct in places.

I don't listen to much at home; Radio 3 late at night, and stuff I'm allegedly trying to learn. I don't know why not; when I was 20 I couldn't turn it off. I'm beginning to feel that I've stopped hearing it, and I think that's mostly because I'm trying to play; my ear is different now.
Never heard of basses with this branding, but apparently they were made at Kawai. I wouldn't know.
Sadly, the thing has a deeply naff name...

A mystery to me.
(Apart from the neck dive, which anyone who's ever played a bass will instantly predict...)

I think this Ibanez Silver Cadet must be Japanese-made. I've not run across one before:

EDIT: Beatbass, 1975 Jazz Bass, and 4 string fretless acoustic all sold out. Anyone get something this time round?

I wonder if a Fender neck could be persuaded to fit? I'd buy a green Talman tomorrow if I thought the spare maple fingerboard Squire neck I have lying around would go on it.

Indeed. Could we persuade the OP to do some measuring, please?

They had two big hits in Australia, this one and Hungry Town. Both great songs, even if they were quite similar to each other.
