Hip to be square - Huey Lewis & The News

This is how I bought it. The previous owner also upgraded the pre-amp. I have the details somewhere. I'm waiting for a set of tapewounds to arrive for this - should have a killer tone.

I've just noticed from this photo that the headstock on the 4s seem off centre (check the dark bit above the nut) where the 5ers don't. In fact, doing a comparison the lines are different. The lower curve on the 4 being much higher. I hadn't noticed this before.

Dear Santa......

I've never played either but I hear so many good things about Suhrs that I question whether you're going to have sellers remorse if it goes. I'm probably one of the worst for "the grass is greener" - and I've learned this isn't true to my cost.

Shaking all over - TBH I can't remember

I thought I'd posted photos of mine - must be in the appreciation thread.

I imagine that the wood will burst into life with a coat of finish. Don't know about you but I can't wait...

I went to a Open Mic night where loads of students turned up. Crafters were well represented. Apparently good VFM.

You should get yourself - err, "the young person" - one of those ultra short scale Fingy Basses - Wing Bass alike. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/FingyBass-Travel-Bass-Electric-Guitar-by-MihaDo-/293238238120 A set of headphones and you can noodle in front of the telly all night long. Alternatively you could try to buy one of Jezza's ( @Jabba_the_gut) amazing creations - good luck with that though.

Who put the bomp (in the bomp bah bomp bah bomp) - Barry Mann

@gobasserk, You're doing OK. When I was travelling I noticed that, no matter where in the world I was, most people could swear fluently in English... @Al Krow, I was watching some daytime telly a few years back with some English children (toddlers) playing with some Vietnamese children of the same age. All were getting on fantastically, laughing and playing. At the end, the interviewer asked one of the English children how she got on with the Vietnamese children when they didn't speak English to which she replied "...but she laughs in English". From the mouths of babes....
