    [quote name='barneyg42' timestamp='1442662349' post='2868578'] A photoshoot when I was younger and fitter, just keep this image in your head and you'll be smiling all day!! [/quote] Thanks for sharing that. True self sacrifice for the cause 😉

    This Paul Simon song features Tony Levin on bass and I think the harmonica solo is Toots Thielemann. I love the transition to the bridge/chorus bit "Then the night turned cold..." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U078jX6Z6fo

    A superb lyric, and what a voice? I've never even heard of him before. Thanks so much for that. I'm definitely going to check him out now.

    Dunno. As far as I could see, mine was the first. Did you forget to press "Post", maybe?

Also the self-restraint, one of everything you need. And all absolute beauties. Hats off, Sir.

    The most common one would be the Squier VM jazz fretless. There's loads of them kicking about between 150-200 quid. Here's the Thomann link: http://www.thomann.de/gb/fender_sq_vm_jazz_bass_fretless.htm

    Hi Guys, sorry, please excuse my lack of replies to your messages. There hasn't been much interest for a while, so I haven't been checking the thread. @zawinul, I'll get the measurements to you asap, but it may take till Sunday. @paulmacnamara, yes I might be open for trades. I don't really have anything specific in mind, just try me. @ anyone interested, it's always best to PM me. Then I get a notification of your message. Once again, sorry for the tardy reply. Cheers, Paul

    Since when did needing have anything to do with it?

    Hi Lukas, welcome to Basschat. I played the Grand Café in Lausanne eons ago. Do they still have live music there now? All the best Paul

    Judging by the amount of interest so far, no

    Hello All, I have a 1988 Hohner B2 (that's the passive one) that I want to move on. I bought it secondhand in a shop in 1991 and have only ever used it as a travel/practice bass. Everything is in good working order. The paint is in very good nick, apart from 2 small chips on the bottom (see pics) and some ware on the lacquer on the strap-buttons and on the ball-end holder where the headstock isn't (if you know what I mean ) (also see pics). It comes with a Hohner soft case with 2 holes corresponding to the ware on the strap-buttons. 2 of the knobs are missing (just the knobs, not the pots themselves) but I can get replacements which are very similar but not quite identical, 'cos Hohner don't make [i]them[/i] anymore. I'm after 180 quid, but am also open to trade offers. Cheers, Paul

    Please ignore this post, you wanted suggestions of NON-tonal percussion. I re-read you post and recognised my mistake 😳

    It's all very well, but where do you stand your pint, eh? Tell me that.

    [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1441453559' post='2858998'] Vintage: Proper hefty bass sound with bass played as it should be, as part of a rhythm section. Rugged and manly. Hi-Fi: Widdly-widdly twangy cutlery-drawer-down-the-stairs in your face inappropriate slappy solo nipple-rub for gaylords. I await the backlash with pleasure. [/quote] Once again Discreet sums it up tidily

    Please forgive a brief thread-jacking, but does anyone know where to find old bits from "The Tube" (80s music-telly for the younger amongst us)? Only there seems to be surprisingly little on YouTube. Again, please forgive the direction change, Paul

    Frankly I think it serves him right for wondering about out there beyond the fifth fret

    I expect there's no fannying around with them.
