Burns-bass

If post this in the DB forum. It’s a classic and I’m sure a new-starter would benefit from it.

You’re not going to find many colleges or businesses selling a 2019 Mac at a knockdown price. Do you know anyone who is at school, college or University? They can get you 10% off a brand new Mac.

“I don’t play bass but I have this super rare Fender. “It doesn’t actually work at the moment and I don’t know why, and the truss rod is nearly maxed out, but I’m sure it’s fine. “I’ve seen that vintage shops are selling these for £1200 so that sounds fair despite them spending hundreds on setting up the bass, fitting new strings and, oh yeah, ensuring it all works...” Grab a bargain! https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Rare-Vintage-USA-1972-Fender-Musicmaster-Bass-Guitar-And-Case-Collection-Only/174478369320

It’s a little heavier than other basses, but it’s very well made. My suggestion would be to keep an eye on the Thomann bargains section. They recently had a Talman for £130 (including delivery). That’s a steal.

I recently picked up a Talman bass for a great price (£80 Unused) and it’s wonderful for the price point. It’s a full-size bass and sounds just brilliant.

Maybe he could have arranged for your wife or partner to have left you before the course started. That might have inspired you! ”if I didn’t have bad luck I wouldn’t have no luck at all...”

Both - and Bowie too!

Probably spotted an underage girl in the crowd.

These things can always be frustrating, but are you sure the error is with Eurosender? It’s highly unlikely a responsive form would have altered your details. It’s more likely to have been the auto fill function on your phone that’s done this after recognising a form. Hope it all gets sorted for you!

Yep, I’ve only bought one think from Bass Direct and the sales process was great. Really glad to hear that it’s been dealt with.

Hi Jon, all in the recycling now I’m afraid.

I make more money picking up loose change off the street than I have done from music, so I can’t compare really. I write stuff that nobody reads for magazines, websites and businesses. Work is steady if not spectacular.

My mum and dad encouraged me to play music (keyboards and so on) but after a few failed attempts, my dad said politely: “you’re on your own.” I saved you and bought a guitar and an amp myself, and played it constantly for about a year. Since then they’ve done everything to support me, including watching some truly terrible shows. We didn’t have much money when I grew up, but they paid for a guitar lesson every couple of weeks to get me started which was incredibly helpful and I can still remember today. I traded up the guitar and bought a Kay bass guitar for £15 and it all started.

Separate the art from the artist. Lovely looking bass.

Sounds like you love it as much as I do!

I’d happily never listen to any of these guys, ever. That’s the beauty of music!

Indeed. I don't want to drag this into a Vulfpeck good v bad discussion. As with music, so with people - we all love what we love. If it makes you happy, then all power to you!
