On a related topic from Wednesday evening, I noticed at my first distanced rehearsal that our banjo player was wearing 'Thursday Socks' with impunity.....

Why don't we have a postal vote and see how that pans out?

That looks convenient...

I see the bass was bought from Peach Guitars, not a selller I've ever seen much mentioned on Basschat and until the other day, one I was not aware of. They however claim to be the UK's laargest Guitar store.

Have a shower, clean your teeth and don't show it your Rickenbaker collection...

Got USA Fender strings too...

Here, I can help you Graham, or should I now say, Captain Graham T?

Is that Baritone Guitar from Blackburn, Lancashire?

Some crazy cheap Sires too, less than £300 for a 5 string Jazz https://www.bax-shop.co.uk/right-handed-bass-guitar/sire-marcus-miller-v3-5-2nd-generation-antique-white

A 'case queen' it is not!

Thanks for this!

Obviously a fake as it doesn't look like any of the Marx Brothers.

Isn't Europe banned now?

What, Scott's got another competition. How did I not hear about that? I bet you've got to sit through a really boring interesting look at his dashboard ( which I bet looks just like the Basschat site) before you can click through to the entry? Then I bet there will be a live draw which 'Ann' from 'Ann Abour' will win first prize and John Doe ( who's really a Russian bot) will win second. BTW, I'm in!!!😏

Then there's necks for people with huge hands....

'G strings are for strippers'.....!!

How cool that one great Bassist names his son after another great Bassist?

I think the final hint it may be a fake is 'Selling Price £1800', postage on a £1800 Bass, £6.92!

There's one been on ebay for a while, wants £700 for it...dream on!

The corpse still has some life in it, who is going to prod it a few more times?

A couple of points and I am no apologist for them: they have a multi-national and multilingual staff and they are doing thousands of orders every day and sometimes I have had disappointing response times from them, and other times very speedy. However almost every complaint I have made has always taken from at least a week to over a month in one instance to resolve. Don't believe it is because of the fact 'they are German'. They used and may still have UK staff (unsure if they were working from home) or based over there. I had a long converstaion with an english guy there by phone and he was a right idiot; I had to go to the CEO to get a resolution in the end. In fact I seem to remember a member on here whose Mum worked for them...?

I was going to say 'what about shipping costs' but they have waived them on a £99 and just £8 on an £89 Bass, so why bother buying the cheaper one? Nice Bass mon ami

Margo Price and a nice bassline on this tune...
