I'm serious. The tea-chest bass has earned its place in bass culture on both sides of the Atlantic. It's good for a laugh, granted, but it's also something that got impoverished would-be musicians into the game

I'm just in the middle of reading Shout, a book that goes into the history of the Beatles. The Quarrymen started out with a tea chest bass.
