Guy I know has a Mark King dog Status. Outstanding instrument, 100% not my thing in the slightest

There you go @nordygrrl!

Wasn’t there one on here or Facebook last week for about that? (I made a joke to my Mrs that I was buying it)

Are you already in the queue if @marleaux62ever wants to sells his Bravewood version?

Surely she prefers the cost savings of you marrying Yamaha compared to your previous ménage à trois with Yamaha and your pal Roger? (Sadowsky for those not on first name terms)

How do you think he keeps time?

Which really says something about Yamaha’s manufacturing.

Maybe ask the question a different way.... How is a HX stomp not the right answer?

@Sibob is a wood tart?

You posted this 22 hours ago. The question is has @owen had a response yet to his request for a 5 string version?

Talkbass ain’t got anything on our trav

Not a bass... but my first proper amp was a Hughes & Kettner QT600 - loved it. sold it and went through loads of amps ... before finding one and convincing the guy to sell it to me ten years later

On the flip side, I've been involved in a situation the other way around too, 3-4 different bands, all quite good and musically practiced.... wanted to double the amount of services... in hindsight the best way to do it would have been to explain that the quality would drop a wee bit musically. What ended up happening is that the musicicins spent all day on a Sunday playing both services and lots of people just dropped out the rota as it was too much. Sometimes you cut according to the cloth you have. Also what you're aiming for depends on where you are at as a church. In some cases a stripped back simple but honest approach of 2-3 musicians doing acoustic type set well would be better and more authentic than trying to recreate a hillsongs conference in the suburbs every Sunday.

You have dust at the dusty end of your bass?

I wonder - do photos of basses look nicer on a dark background?

Exciting It's kinda like a new pair of underwear. At first it's constrictive, but after a while it becomes a part of you.

Would you trade your Yamaha BBNE2 for ice cream? (asking for a friend)

Only on mobile - clicking the profile pic goes to profile, but not the name.

actually - @Bassassinwould be the person if his knowledge of japanese luthiery extends to ESP 400 series was ESP's line of export guitars and basses made in the mid 80s, in the US they ended up with a different headstock, earlier ones or ones for outside the US like yours has a fender shape headstock.

Are you sure about that? Japanese Fender was/is Fujigen Gakki (with some made by Tokai) I think ESP had their own factories shared with PGM maybe? Not sure on that but I don't think Fujigen made ESP

You've got one... can you tell us about it? I'm guessing you've found the old ESP catalogues (search catalog) with the 400 series in?
