  1. At this price who doesn't... Space may be infinite but I only have a one bed flat. GLWTS
  2. No room in my storage space otherwise I'd have these. A bargain for somebody.
  3. The article states that Macca is really happy to get the bass back. I wonder what that equates to as a "reward" in pounds and pence.
  4. Personally I think it's important to learn your major and minor scales. This will help you build bass lines and improvise. You will also "find" riffs that you recognise which, in turn, will help you develop your own style. Perseverance is important when you are learning anything. Think of learning bass like juggling - neither will come to you if you don't persevere or practice.
  5. Welcome back Marco. I was involved in the Bass Passaround. Nice bass if I remember rightly... Be good to see some more of your builds.
  6. Sycamore, more, more - Andrea True Connection
  7. Apologies...I stand corrected House of the rising sun- The Animals (again)
  8. Glad that this was resolved amicably. Good to know that at least the members here can sort things out without recriminations. Great bunch of people.
  9. You're The First, The Last, My Everything - Barry White
  10. G&L are another of those companies building basses which play well above their price point. Leo wasn't lying when he said these were some of the best basses he'd ever built.
  11. I love this body shape - I have 2 TRB1005 basses, so well balanced - joy to play. There's a blue 5er on Gumtree at the moment for £500, along with a 614, a 615 and a 1025x at reasonable prices.
  12. One day I'll fly(tip) away - Randy Crawford
  13. In years gone by I thought I would have loved to have been a Pro bassist. Obviously there have to be sacrifices - relationships seem to take a beating. Arguments with Record companies, getting ripped off by managers and ending up hating your band mates all seem commonplace. Fame and fortune are fleeting, and it must be really grating to others to hear "don't you know who I am". Most of us play because we love to. When it becomes a job that must suffer. So given the opportunity who would have been a Pro player as a career?
  14. Great bass as I recall. Bought around the time I sold my Harlot - felt wrong not having an ACG. Buyer will be more than happy.
  15. None other than the bassist from Iron Maiden ...
