I do like the look of the 70s large headstock models, they remind me of pelicans

And you know, using a cloth to clean, was so not a thing back then back before fabric was invented

Sell it, make good some of your losses and walk away. When they have to replace it they might think twice about not being reasonable

The great Julia who can actually play bass whilst riding a unicycle.

Huge thanks @greghagger for today and helping make some sense of these events above as well as other topics

Looks pretty good. Thumbs up

I forgot to say thanks for creating porridge …

I’ve not had that feeling in 15 years, the memory grows dim

Invent a Time Machine, my dear Scottish brother from another mother and make it tues/wed earlier than it should be. Then you need not “get by” with mere images Simples

I focus this in an alternative way. I don’t need a new bass to get better at X. This bass is better at being a bass than I am at playing it. It is I would need to get better at X. for X substitute “timing”, “note choice”, “showmanship”, “talent” or bete-noire du jour

“Yes” and “lots” there you go. sorted

T c electronic bh250 has both and isn’t a combo

I used to live in Hampshire church crookham near fleet lovely place

I teach my daughter guitar. I get to play bass whilst helping her keep time and she’s genuinely happy to play along with someone, it’s what I lacked when learning If you can avoid puking, why not play chords for him to play along with. ?

You were already senile, though possibly not yet mad, when you joined

I was actually born in clacton on sea. I’ve never lived there in Essex though aside from a two-year sentence in Chelmsford (education, not prison, though there were some similarities)

Thought you’d have owned at least five. I had one but didn’t like the wide board

They’re nice people i said to the keys player last night “ when I come here and see you guys play, I know just how far I still have to go” thinking maybe “in the midnight hour” as my debut.

He doesn’t have kids or a house with a diy mountain. I might get 20 hours in over a period of two years

Going to suggest “in the midnight hour” as a) a homage to duck Dunn b) we have a lady saxophonist so the horn parts are do-able c) I absolutely love that tune and it’s the first one I figured out by ear so it’s a huge proud moment for someone as talentless as I am I spoke to the ridiculously talented keyboard player who happens to be the brother of the ridiculously talented bass player about a full-on blues jam next time if anyone has any killer blues jam endings please let me know (the climbing up the neck to the dusty end eighth note pluck-fest type of thing)

It helps though I just use grenades @SpondonBassed I live next to a school so the use of military hardware is fully justified seriously though @Suezee what bass are you playing most right now and what genre do you most enjoy ?
