I guess they didn’t get the memo about proper spinal-tap behaviour being changing drummers like they change underwear and went for bass players instead 🤷♂️

Flipping basses for profit – fair game or not cool?
Geek99 replied to Allaboutthebass's topic in General Discussion
@neepheid reads my mind once more. I have an additional perspective; if I use household money to buy something for a song (stupid end-time on eBay, grubby but polishes up etc) and I like it, I keep it. I’d never treat myself to something at market rates . Management is aware of that. I have an understanding with management that if I make money on shifting something I bought cheaper (but don’t like) then I give back the purchase price plus the profit for the general good. I’d never knowingly sell for more than a “basschat price” however. I feel fairly comfortable with the morals of this. -
That is three words I never thought I’d see adjoining each other 😛 like scenic, safe, Ilkeston

Yes I’d put a smear of silicon under the tuner plate to hold it down i avoid drilling holes if possible -

If it’s just one per tuner I’d just leave them out -
I’d pay a fiver to not see you play 😝

Nope Judging by “them changes” youre doing fine

I’d like one, if I were still playing 4 strings. Totally 5 now. Green would be my choice as the others are just a bit 1987 Ibanez

Help with identifying this gender jazz bass
Geek99 replied to bigmuff69's topic in General Discussion
For £700 a scratch plate wouldn’t bother me. It’s the more important parts that I think are amiss. -
