  1. Pretty sure that none of this lot are original members. LPO
  2. Recently acquired a 5er with twin soapbars/ humbuckers but prior to that I had been playing mostly PJ configuration basses. I felt that both Jazz and Precision basses lacked "something" that the PJ set up gave me. What is your preference? Remember there is no "right" or "wrong" (unless you disagree with me, of course) 😜😜
  3. That is both our curse and our gift...we make a huge contribution which goes virtually unnoticed...and most people couldn't even name a handful of bassists.
  4. Good question - I see a lot of these for sale and often ask myself if they're any good - they certainly look well made, but you never can tell. TBH though, there aren't many badly made basses any more. Certainly a lot fewer than when I started playing...
  5. Courtesy of our own @Bart Funk Bass Anybody still awake? Lacks something, don't you think???
  6. ....and we're the only instrument with it's name on the amp.... There's no knob saying "guitar" on it!!!
  7. My favourite Beatles track is "Norwegian wood" - thankfully hasn't been (over)played to death. I can't say that I've heard a version of it that I prefer...
  8. Disagree...Drum and Bass are the sandwich, guitar is the interchangeable bit that you squeeze in for a bit of variety but gets all the attention.
  9. Paraphrase a phrase that was left here recently.... "You may not know that I am playing, but you'll know when I'm not..."
  10. Upside down - Diana Ross
  11. The Soft Parade - The Doors
  12. Float on - The Floaters
  13. So things are selling at the moment - well done sir..
  14. Probably won't be a deal breaker for any potential buyers but is the Low B Nickel and the rest of the set stainless steel?
  15. I really don't like dings in my gear but once I have them I don't fret (sorry...no pun intended) about it. I just hate putting the dings in, in the first place.
  16. Ah, but do you have all that you want!!?? What about gear you didn't know that you wanted???
  17. Does the water content mean that the Swamp Ash grows more in the same period leading to it being less dense? I would have thought that the "wetter" wood would be heavier.
  18. Interesting....I'm very happy with my Skyline 55-01 despite people advising the need to change the pick ups and pre-amp - both of which the previous owner had upgraded. How is the USA "better" than the Indonesian?
  19. I read through this thinking it was the "Gear abstinence thread"...
  20. So Mesa are now to become collectable. Sad state of affairs.
  21. ..a cunning plan
  22. Boyz n the hood - Eazy E
