I used to do a short bike ride to a practice studio with a Thunderbird on my back. Quite do-able, although the larger the bass the more wind assistance/resistance you get. The T-bird was fun in high winds I've not carried a combo - I think if I were, a small trailer would be if interest to me. Seems to me a lot of hard rattling might not be too welcome...although it would depend on how smooth a road it is on the way.

I feel you do yourself a disservice, sir ! Lessons learned for your next project, I'm sure.

Lovely work ! Well impressed 👍

Stick with the bigger bridge - I think Jazz basses looks more balanced with a larger bridge.

Where do you stand in a five piece band ? Why does everything on Basschat inevitably have to turn into another bloody argument, just relax, it's just a discussion forum, not really of any import in the grand scheme of things. Yeah yeah yeah ! Sorry, some of it doesn't scan very well.

Agreed. I'd rather be on the hi-hat side of the drummer, but I've played on stages so small that it was more a game of human Tetris than a matter of choice.

Of course, if the idea is to remove the personality and skill of the person playing in the demo from the equation then I'm quite happy to be the control who exhibits neither

Mrs. Pook and I are on a road trip holiday and have been listening to quite a bit of Laurie Anderson. We'd forgotten how much we both enjoy her music. It's great to reconnect - to reconnect to music, and to reconnect to music 👍

A fine point, well made.

There is the view from the other side....

Something like one of those Boiling Vessels fitted to British tanks so the crew can make a nice hot cup of tea.

No price cutting with a Katana then....? Sorry. I'll get my kimono

Also add Mr. Robert Fripp to the sedentary set.

You do you ! I've played seated gigs when ankle problems made standing with a bass for any length of time nigh-on impossible...It feels a bit odd, but keep your head up and get as much groove on as you can from your 'relaxed' position.

It may be only a handful of notes and far from involved, but I never get tired of this. A simple man of simple pleasures, perhaps.

Space - I don't have room for hundreds of CDs !

I'm with you on that. Although Mrs. Pook is very averse to me selling any....I think she would feel need to sell some of her many many bikes if I pruned my basses

I thought it was just a really long tape cassette

It's for that Panavision feel

Totally theoretical, we needs pics!

Looks exactly the same model as my old Westone, except mine had a black-painted neck.

I can't think of a single song I hate. Not see the appeal of, or find boring, yes. But actually hate ? No.

No.
