  1. That first pic had me worried for a bit... looked like someone's arm, with the wrist disappearing out of shot to the left...
  2. A couple of weeks ago I went to the Fruits De Mer label's 10th anniversary gig in Glastonbury. Seven bands plus a goody bag for £25,; five of the bands were good and two average. Score
  3. Thanks I've been wanting something to do that with for a while; real DB are just too big - my dad played DB; and the first thing he asked about any car he drove was "Can I fit the bass in it?". And he had a much bigger house than I'm ever going to have. I guess I could try a viola with an octave pedal, but I'm still hankering after something with a sensible fundamental note - partly because certain guitarists think anyone can play bass, and I don't want to give them ideas...
  4. Can't compete visually with the SRF, for me.
  5. +1. In fact, +lots. Painful and causes great hilarity among your bandmates.
  6. Damn it, I need to stay out of these threads... that's just fantastic. I really like the sort of mandolin-ish look of the darker one.
  7. That's awesome 😍 Is it small enough to play on your arm, like a folk fiddle-player?
  8. I had a fretted one. I should have kept it, it punched well above its weight. GLWTS!
  9. Well that's not going to hang around...
  10. Aha! Thanks chaps, curiosity satisfied.
  11. Ah well,; at least you missed my Blue Meanies
  12. I seem to recall that that headstock makes it a Vantage. If so, is it a bitsa, or is it a P knockoff? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Bass-Guitar-Project-Four-String/192566210234?hash=item2cd5d72eba:g:yS8AAOSwrQxbH5tJ
  13. Jose bought it back from me Still a pleasure to deal with, and very tolerant of my dawdling. Enjoy Edit: Also he's a better player than me. Bah, humbug

    I bought Josh's TRB II, and very nice it is. He drove a long way to deliver it, and is a nice guy. Recommended.
  15. It's the bloomin' ease you do it with which really offends...
  16. Not bad at all. I bet it dives like crazy though.
  17. Are you sure that's not Harry Worth?
  18. Have you tried leather picks at all? (I can't play with a pick at all. I really need to learn at some point. So, I think fingers are faster )
  19. Ooh... If I hadn't just bought something else, I'd be after the fretless 5-neck and the J5.
