There have also been things like bass banjos and bass balalaikas posted here. I don't know if anyone is actively playing them. Probably the oddest thing I've got is a three-necked six-string. That's six strings total, you understand... one neck with three strings, one with two, and one with one It's technically a bass guitar, I guess. I don't really know what it's for; my best guess is to accompany several trad instruments where the natural frequency of the trad instruments varies from instrument to instrument, and retuning every time was not sensible. But really, I don't know. Obviously I bought it here

There are quite a few people here with bass synths, IIUC. Personally I have used an Ashbory to gig. I still have ambitions for cello, though time and cashflow are not on my side. I'd have nabbed that bass viol on eBay, as well, if it had been within 100 miles of me.

The Performer is the only Fender design I've ever liked the look of.

EBay really, really needs a sensible feedback arrangement.

Probably Dekos, as well.

I'd have had it if it had been within range. Ah well.

Brian sold me some non-music-related stuff. All went well; good communications, good packaging and prompt delivery. Recommended. Thanks Brian

I bought a BBG5 from James in a rather hasty transaction - the haste due partly to my being geographically challenged . Nice guy, all as advertised. I'd happily deal with him again. Thanks James

Tactically I'd suggest ensuring you can regroup at one end if it all goes pear-shaped, and making sure the organisers are on board with that.

IME the drummer question can be a problem. Electronic drumkit can solve it, IF the drummer is happy to have his volume dependent on other people...

I suppose the other obvious one is Lemmy, who was a guitarist before joining Hawkwind. Seems to have liked the change I don't know Dinosaur Junior's stuff, sorry to say. Is this how Barlow plays in the studio? I'm wondering if it's a way to fill the sound out with only one guitarist.

I bought P pickups from Martyn. All went smoothly and I am a happy camper. Recommended. Thanks

Hmmm. Presumably this would mean the nut didn't have to be lowered as much?

I've been using 6mm black tape on the upper edge of my TRB5 fretless (for some reason Yamaha side-dotted it as though it was fretted...), but it never occurred to me to cover the whole board. Kudos!

I don't see the need for the Golf at all, really.
