TBH I’ve never been more blissed out than the moment when I was totally immersed in playing “stand by me” with my bass teacher playing (i mean slumming it) on guitar. It’s all about the music.

I hear Halley’s Comet is due …

Oh my Scottish brother from another mother @neepheid , I really like playing Dakota and now you've nixed it. I guess I have to play it more so I will come to hate it as much as everyone else does. partial excuse : I’m playing with an acoustic guitarist who tells me that he previously thumb -hit the bass strings to get “the impact” of the bass notes in there. I’ve told him that he is too intelligent to be a guitard and has raised his game too far such that he may be lynched by his troglodyte peers.

Well @Peter Popovic you get that hands-on pleasure 👎

Can I recommend “don’t lose your head” by Inxs? Not eighth note fodder, Garry beers at his finest, very underrated player in my humble opinion

Agree, despite being super-cheap the guy who bought my p bass asked what they were. He was in a different galaxy talent-wise compared to me and was very impressed. When I told him they were £14 cheapies from Amazon he thought I was pulling his chain. Absolutely loved them

I’m actually looking for one

How do I become a supporting member?

This having trodden this path, I predict that you will one day regret this. get a replacement neck, get the fret less thing out of your system and tread once more the path of the righteous man with a four bolt reinstatement of the original neck

Thank you. I missed the fanfare I will support

What size? I could work in a shop like that

Apologies for the mis- placement in this forum, ITEMS WANTED is greyed out. Could a mod please move this ? I think I need an acoustic bass, preferably mid scale and must have a built in tuner. A bag would be nice if possible. I don’t care if it is battered or a weird colour. I’m in Leicestershire but can travel a bit. thanks

True but it is very ugly

I’ll give you £10 and I’ll even collect.

I do it, either zoom into PA or zoom into TC bH250 into Pa

Sadly far beyond my wallet

I’d like one but they don’t pop up often. I assume they’re mostly CIJ? where other than Marketplace is a good place to look? any tips on what to buy or avoid ?

Mine could - just get it routed

No, you said “what guitar”

Yes, then you can give it back without feeling bad. Like a cat

It’s so weedy and small … (not knocking the craftsmanship @Stub Mandrel though aesthetically it would look better still by being larger and with two less strings)

You could misread the title as “what guitarist would a bassist grab by the throat?”. Any, probably

I’d reach for “a burning one”, then I’d have an excuse for putting it down quickly and once it had become a pile of ashes I would not have to play it, there’d be one less guitar in the world and I wouldn’t have to listen to anyone else play the weedy thing either. Triple whammy of “win!” There
