Might have more luck selling this closer to 5th November... Call me crazy, but I thought one of the advantages of a sloping board is that the PSU can be mounted underneath the pedals, and also shoving all of the cables underneath makes it look altogether tidier and more appealing.

I don’t think we’re looking at an Ivor Novello here, are we?

I had one of these as my first 5 string, way back in the early 90s. Loved it, but I kept sliding off the end of the neck; turns out I do NOT do well with headless basses.

Not in front of a festival crowd though...

I turned my 2x10 into a 1x12 plus tweeter. Turned out nice again.

yes, to more gigs where the bassist has a 2x15"!

Not as well as Charlie Watts could though.

Agreed - look at Steely Dan (runs for cover!)

I wish I hadn't heard how much they cost, which is ironic really.

That’s only 88 keys, a piano has 3 strings per key… 🤯

Chuck Norris plays 5 string bass - on a 4 string bass.

Yeppers - this.

I use the zoom ms60b for my chorus sound (among many others) even though I have a hand built analogue chorus (small clone clone) in my stash - there’s very little difference between the two to be honest, and the zoom takes up less space on my board and does more.

Pearl’s a singer -Marc Almond

Yeppers, black Jazzes with maple neck and black blocks and binding are a thing of beauty.

Wish Away - Stourbridge’s finest The Wonderstuff.

Will keep my eyes peeled dude. 😢

Polytown by David Torn, Mick Karn and Terry Bozio. I think I discovered this album through this very thread.

Cemetery Gates - Pantera \m/

If all else fails then the zoom ms60b has some great synth options - the filters on there are great too!

I did the whole tribute act thing in my 20s - it was hard work, but great fun. 'Twas a Queen act, aided massively by our singer looking (and sounding) uncannily like Freddie, and our drummer having the same hair as Prof. Brian May. As the bassist I wore shorts and a T-shirt, a la Wembley '86, but TBF, all of the attention is on Freddie, so it really didn't matter what we looked like. I think if the band has an iconic look (Angus, Freddie, Lemmy etc...) then I think it's only fair that you try to emulate that, but the sound has to come first.

Was it Ida Nielsen?

Sarah Brand does fretless singing - change my mind.

Gaaaaaahhhhhhhhh!!!!!! etc...
