    Here's my old one: And here's my current one: And the two of them together cost less than he wants for the one in that listing!

    So this is the very bass that Jaco played. Except for the strings, obviously. And the frets and the bridge saddles. And the pots. And the finish. And the decal. But the two big bits of wood are original, and maybe the pickups too. I mean, who knows after all these years, right? Cheap at half the price. If this was a five I'd be all over it.

    Well now, that's a pretty wide field.

    One man's "essential" is another's "eurgh!".

    Or you could just say, "That's a Godawful song and I have no intention of wasting any of my life playing it. Next?".

    Just wondering what string they fit to these? 29" is a very unusual scale length. Someone asked if this bass would be the same size as a Strat ... I reckon it must be about 3" longer than a Strat, maybe more.

    That bridge is a thing of beauty, and who would want to have even string spacing anyway?

    @bassace will be along in a minute. There's something he wants to show you.

    That video sort-of works as a basic introduction to bass playing for someone who's never held one before. Probably someone whose age is still in single figures. As to praise on Facebook, well it's Facebook innit? It's not like it's real.

    I'm sure it's not his fault that he's suffered third-degree burns ... was he trapped on a burning oil tanker or something?

    I'll post it if you ask nicely.

    I'm sorry Nick, there are some things that just can't be excused or forgiven.

    This one has featured before. I remember it because I contacted the seller to compliment him on his lino. Seriously.

    I've listened to Spotify a few times. It wasn't life-changing. It's a bit like having a cable TV package with all the bells & whistles. It makes available far, FAR more stinky poo than you ever realised was out there.

    Apparently that kit comes with a permanent team of sound engineers who handle the close-miking ...

    I'm pretty sure the M25 doesn't go to the East Midleands ...

    That perspex backplate is truly a thing of beauty.

    Here are the technical details for its slightly younger brother. http://www.markbass.it/product-detail/standard-104hf/

    This is the 4-Ohm version, good for 800W (though I never got around to putting that much through it) and it was Made In Italy. It does the whole Markbass yellow thing really nicely. The rat-fur is pretty clean and doesn't smell. It has sockets and handles. And it comes with this really cute padded cover. Available for collection from Harrow HA1, or I can deliver within 50 miles (and within reason) for petrol money.

    In fairness, he's selling it for €160 so there's probably not much budget for a translator. Have you got one, Jack?
