    Halloo! Sire v7 5 string would be my choice https://www.thomann.de/gb/marcus_miller_v7_swamp_ash_5_nt_2nd_gen.htm I can't get on with 5 strings but I had one of these and it was a very nice bass for the money (the control knobs are cheap and nasty but easy to replace)

    Thanks It's a beautiful bass. If it doesn't sell I won't be too unhappy

    I feel your pain having gone through the same event a few years back. All wedding suppliers triple their prices when they know it's for a wedding so I'd make sure you pay yourself triple your normal fee.....go on, you deserve it

    I played one of these a couple of years ago at Richtone in Sheffield. Really liked it, it played beautifully, but I dithered and it sold

    Interesting dampening system you have under your deck

    The two guitarists in my band are talented enough to make great bass players, fortunately for me they're not showing any inclination. I'm in a band with some talented folk...our sax player is a music teacher...I use this as a spur to improve my playing

    She's cute, that's for sure...and a good singer too!

    Just got back into hifi over lockdown. Set up is a Project 2.9 deck with an Ortofon OM10 cartridge through a Rega Brio amp and a pair of Castle Clyde speakers off of eBay for £80! I've also sprung for Chord cables (they cost more than the speakers) The sound quality is pretty good for a total spend of <£800 and I'm reconnecting with a lot of the albums I bought in the 70's. I'm amazed at the cost of the very high end hifi stuff. There is a pair of chord Sarum 4m speaker cables on evilBay that are on for £2150.00 - yikes

    Bojo is being Mr Nasty having fracked up everything else to do with Covid. The false positive debate is interesting for example
