You're not wrong There is a big difference between learning your own part and playing with the whole band.

This.

Allegedly the traditional tuning was "to the studio piano" - presumably because that was hardest/slowest to tune.

Could you put a string guide over that headstock crack?

That's got to be uncomfortable to play sitting down.

It's clearly good for sole. Metal, maybe not so much?

I like the stand. Very organic-looking.

That looks like a Danelectro with a hangover.

Isn't that a thing sellers should include in the thread title?

I wonder if you could put an arched bridge on it... I want to hear it played arco

An extra one. I'm assuming it takes no-ball strings.

Trying to slip one past us, eh?

Trampoline - Joe Henry.

I have (still) a Kramer The Duke. (I've tried to sell it twice now... both times screwed up, not either buyer's fault.) I suppose I'll post it again at some stage. It sounds more like an octave-down electric than a "conventional" bass - I don't know how much of that is the pickup, I suppose the aluminium neck must have some effect. I did find it hard to keep in tune, but the design is not great and that may well be part of the problem.

Expanding Wallets

Probably the silly font.

I heard him talking about it on Radio 6 a few weeks back. I may have misunderstood.

IIRC he is donating all the proceeds to charity.

What platform and browser?

... for £250.

Rows and rows of them. Merry-ment ensues.
