by the marvellous Wendy Melvoin. I love Wendy & Lisa and that bassline is a particular favourite. Good call. There’s great bass all over Fruit at the Bottom. Lolly Lolly and Everday are really worth getting in your ear! Lisa put a ❤️ on a comment of mine on Facebook last week. Made my day!

@police squad yup, that’s got p bass written all over it! Great set you lucky fella. No room for “Out of Control”?! Ooh, you playing guitar on 40? 😁

@police squad care to share the set? Might that dictate the bass you use?

Ah but there’s plenty more who think they are just brilliant. I will never stop marvelling at Bad live (even if I’m convinced that Adam’s last lick is an overdub!). 😁

Ace. Well done 👍

And a Badass II by the look of it. Edit: Oh heavens. Triple post!! Must’ve gone through the Edge’s pedalboard!

P Bass with a maple Jazz bass neck.

Sir, I do indeed. The newer ones can be a bit clunky but the English speaking world swaps and changes more than we imagine. Have we gotten used to “gotten” (again)? Or have we simply become more accustomed? Yours respectfully, Mr C Arse PS Zender is the business! He sho’ nuff funky. Dig?

“The first known written use of "oops" was in a 1921 Washington Post horse racing column”. You were saying? 😁

Thanks. Yes it’s Bubinga pommele with an ebony fretboard.

@Cliff Edge every cloud… Well now’s the time to put out a full description of it on BC. Someone here might have seen, or be playing it. Maybe Basschat should start a One The Got Away thread where BCers can give a full description of an instrument and where it was last seen. I’d imagine that there’s plenty of us who peruse the internet looking at basses for sale (when we should be practicing!). Might have some success.

Oh man I hope you find it. Keep looking 👍

Thank you. It had been looked after very well. Still, I gave it a polish, fretboard too, and put some DRs on it. It sings and it growls! And it will be played hard 👍
