Being that your in a punk band take it to your next band practice, pull it out of the bag and say "Hey guys from now on im only going to play non fender modern looking five string basses, Im saving up for a BC Rich next!" and watch them all go like this [/quote] even better I have a gig tomorrow night .......

[quote name='Dr.Dave' post='276495' date='Sep 3 2008, 07:36 PM']Only one way to go with this and that's overboard. It cost you jack sh*t so have some fun. Stickers , newspaper cuttings, skull knobs - the works.[/quote] Haha good plan I may go the other way and make it more tacky by cutting some holes in the back and putting a neon lights in the body. Funny thing is it sounds really good for a plastic bass.

I like that and mould it in to a fun shape.

Right the story goes. I saw my mate on saturday and he has the same bass as that guy was selling on eBay for £15 so I told him and he said "do you want mine for tenner" so I said yes. Right it needs new strings but that isn't a problem the problem is it is as ugly as sin as I said before the only thing that would make it look worse is a Warwick badge Anyway bit of fun give me suggestions on how to make the hideous see through purple monster look better?

Fair dues I've been wrong before and I will be again. Seriously though if I had the room it would make a great table (don't think the missus would agree)

(apart from those who supported me) you want some do ya It wasn't £100 tho mofo ermmm may be I should of put it up as a buy it now....[/quote] It was £70 + £30 postage. Personally I think that is too much but I do like the idea of using it as a novalty coffee table.

[quote name='JoeS' post='275776' date='Sep 2 2008, 09:01 PM']Well, I [i]was[/i] joking, but I'd say something by Clutch. Anything by Clutch, actually.[/quote] I was kidding too but that band look like a pub band in all honesty

[quote name='bassman2790' post='275643' date='Sep 2 2008, 05:24 PM']Seems to go down well when we play it. Do you have a suggestion for a replacement cover song in the bluesey/rock stylee?[/quote] Rufus Thomas - Walking the Dog The guys in the video are they pro?

[quote name='woodster' post='275498' date='Sep 2 2008, 03:15 PM']Basses once owned by 'stars' - Yeah, and it was so good they sold it...! Just a bit of fun :-)[/quote] 99% of the time drugs and hookers

[quote name='BassMunkee' post='275491' date='Sep 2 2008, 03:09 PM']Actually I have used a Behringer DSP2024 and found it to be very good. I think people slag Behringer off "just because". So they are cheap, it doesn't make them bad.[/quote] I own a Behringer rack tuner it looks good but it is sh*t.

Do what I do I'm a crap bass player but I can drive a van, that is invaluble

[quote name='Crazykiwi' post='275320' date='Sep 2 2008, 11:48 AM']*ahem* Didn't really work well as a stereo rig but at least it looked the part.[/quote] That could be the most 80's looking thing I have ever seen.

[quote name='Josh' post='275122' date='Sep 2 2008, 12:30 AM']May I present, Brian Fox:[/quote] What an irritating unfunny man.

[quote name='phil_the_bassist' post='275185' date='Sep 2 2008, 08:45 AM']flash git punkassed checkerboarded so&so [/quote] This 5 string is as ugly as sin I'll post pics later but I'm trying to work out how you would make it look worse apart from putting a Warwick badge on it I guess for a tenner I can't complain

[quote name='bass_ferret' post='275042' date='Sep 1 2008, 10:46 PM']700 quid for a Squire???????????????????????????[/quote] I thought that but I think he meant it wieghs the same as a Fender P five that costs £700

[quote name='Dr.Dave' post='274847' date='Sep 1 2008, 07:15 PM']Anything with carpet covering. Fender stock bridges that collapse on you. Well , they collapse on me! Alembics with a pointy bottom so you can't stand them up. Or any other Alembics come to think of it. Jaydees. 2 jam jar lids stuck to a funny shaped body , what's that all about. Strap manufacturers - all of them - for putting a hole in that's too small and a slot that makes a small hole pointless. But the award for the biggest pile of sh*te goes to Schaller - for manufacturing straplocks that don't lock on to a strap and dump my Status on my foot mid gig making me look a right numpty - not to mention the pain. Thankyou Schaller - you utter,utter twats.[/quote] So thats why you sold me that bridge Who is Brian Fox?

1998 and Sidekick by Rancid both very fun to play.

Just to show off again I bought a 5 string this weekend for a tenner
