    Of course... in fact I've got two Variaxes! 😂 I was going to put a fretless neck one one, just to see, but haven't yet. I've got plenty of other basses as I like the aesthetics as much as the sound, and money in the bank was doing nothing and money in the right bass just increases. The Variaxes might be the wrong basses but they were cheap when I bought them and have earnt their keep. Edit: That's not my demo BTW, just incase you thought it was. 👍

    I need reading glasses but don't wear them gigging as everything further away becomes blurred. A solution for reading setlists, rather than have one on the floor is to tape it to the back of the PA top speaker, which is usually just in front left of me. I also prefer this as I think it looks a bit crappy every time a band finishes a song they all look at the floor to see what's next. The audience don't always realise what the band are looking at the floor for and just think we're a bit miserable.

    Line 6 released the Variax bass (700 & 705) in 2005 which emulated 24 basses including solid, semi, hollow and synth. Lots of folks don't like them but I really like mine. Rather than thinking of the settings as actual basses I just consider it to have a huge range of tones. As well as different tones the sustain and attack is different on different models. In a band setting they can sound great, especially a covers band if you want to try to copy original tones.

    Now that's the sort of hunting I could get behind.

    No need to worry. The seller has said it's just a crack in the lacquer. 🙈

    I use a Hercules triple. Main bass and spare bass, then use the rear stand as a hanger for various things. Being in a Mod/Ska/Northern Soul band I often wear a suit, the jacket will get hung here if too hot, or a checkered or Union Jack flag draped over it looks good.

    As this thread has been dug up it would be a good time to add that the bass has now been signed by the man himself. 😎

    Well Axl's not getting any better is he. Just need Slash to take his hat off at the end to reveal a bald bonce with all the curly hair stuck to the hat like one of those scottish tartan and ginger ones, just to finish it off.

    I think hitting the gym with Duff has been the problem.

    Chrissie's voice still sounds as good as it did in the eightes. Sounding and looking great at 71 😎.

    Weirdly I first saw them at Ozzfest '98. Korn had pulled out and Foos has replaced them. Dave Grohl has said he was absolutely terrified as they're not a metal band, and they were following Pantera. They pulled it off though.
