Thanks PTP for the advice but I regard thumb rests as an unnecessary eyesore with no place on any bass. Really need to hide the holes.

Some have gone, others have taken their place. A couple of G&Ls.

Fell in love with my first G&L M2000 but foolishly sold it on as part of my downsizing. As a replacement I bought a jazz but was disappointed so again moved it on. Then the SB2 came along and I snapped it up. This week I was able to find another M2000 and it came to live with me. Can't decide which I prefer TBH...both very good basses for not too much money.

Bargain!!

Ah, Simmons electric drums. They used to be made just up the road from me on the way to St Albans - I had friends who worked there who said the technology didn't work. They threw away as many as they sold IIRC.

Lily the Pink - The Scaffold

I use Hard Rock Cafe drawstring bags to keep cables in.

Bought a bass which arrived with 2x sets of screw holes from thumb rests. Is there a better method than using (the correct colour) wax crayons melted into the holes?

Sir, I admire your style...

I have an Ashdown Evo11 180w at home. Perfectly adequate as a practice amp with good tonal palette (and brilliant Customer service from Ashdown if required). I haven't used it in real anger but I would expect it to do what was required...it's an Ashdown after all. They sell for around £100...great VFM IMO

Browsing through eBay and I found a couple of sets of strings by the same company, Bryce. After reading the front packaging I got to wondering " I wonder what's the difference". Then I realised that at about £6 a packet (remember you probably get what you pay for) I REALLY DON'T CARE ENOUGH TO OPEN THE AD. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Electric-Bass-Guitar-4-String-Set-Light-040-Nickel-Alloy-by-Bryce/263440294745?epid=17013180526&hash=item3d5643e359:g:zLkAAOSwgsxaXfod https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Electric-Bass-Guitar-4-String-Set-Light-040-Nickel-Alloy-by-Bryce/263440294792?epid=20013180624&hash=item3d5643e388:g:5iYAAOSwu6taXfof Anybody else?
