I wasn't being quarrelsome - just that there are so many great/ inspirational bassists that the many pointless lists which are churned out periodically are meaningless. That's why I suggested picking genre and looking at players who made a name for themselves in those genre.... Thankfully, bassists are now getting recognition for their contributions where they didn't years ago...

Noel Redding didn't get the recognition he deserved...

Are you sure??? I suggest that if you put 5 bassists in a room you'd get at least 6 opinions. "Who is the best bassist" often leads to near fisticuffs - what I like doesn't translate to what you, or anybody else, likes. "My dog doesn't like slap" - though whimsical - shows how we are divided on taste and style. You may have to pick a genre each week and consider the bassists who made significant impact in that genre...

Only you - Yazoo

We wouldn't do that. However, if you consider "doing the right thing" - a self sacrifice - can you leave me your gear?

Catch me if you can - The Cranberries

Totally agree. The only thing better than the online relationships is meeting other members in person.

Sisters are doing it for themselves - Areetha and Annie Lennox

I can't be the only one....

It's my house - Diana Ross

Looks well made with quality woods. Possibly worth a look https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Handmade-custom-5-string-bass-guitar-26-frets/164766831683?hash=item265cde5443:g:1HQAAOSw6zlgU75S Seller regularly has quality items for sale on eBay, including a neck through NS94.

Stay - Jackson Browne It's NOT an ad for suntan lotion!!!

Born too late - The Ponytails

Another ACG masterpiece...can anybody remember one that wasn't?

I like the middle one - enough of a slant to be different without scaring the trads.

RIP

Wheels on Fire - Julie Driscoll and Ab Fab

Don't turn around - Aswad

He might if it was played on one of these

There are 149 out there....see if somebody will part with theirs. Afterthought: we have a dog called "Gibson" in the pack - his human is a guitarist - I wonder if he has thought of that...

For the Herts Bashes I had plectrums made. If you order 50/100 they work out as pennies each . There are plenty of companies out there who will make them for you. This is the only one I have left.

Thanks Mark, I suspect this will join the list of basses I should never have sold...hope you enjoy it.

You should have posted in the "Wanted" thread - I've got one going unused, still in packaging. I'm sure I could have beaten Mark's price.... Always the way....
