    Hmm, without any specific requirements to guide my hand, probably a Fender, if only for the resale value and most likely a Performer Mustang. However, I am tempted by the headless, short scale, Ibanez offering (swap out those pickups for Nordy Big Singles), but the big F still wins the day if only one is allowed, for the reason stated.

    Replace the volume control with a blend pot and you're laughing IMO.

    Hmm, sturdy, lightweight and compact folding are probably counter indicative terms (although they may exist, but probably at a significant cost). I have spindly, fold up thing somewhere, but definitely only for home use. When using one live (yes, I know, but sometimes needs must, especially for short notice deps), I used a bolt on one with a mic stand.

    🤣 I wonder what Reverend think of the body shape? At the money, it’s a good score and at least it’s little things that can be easily fixed.

    +2 (SBMM Shorty ‘Ray & NS Design WAV 4 upright). None out, but next year could well see 3 go.

    When I first started playing bass, it seemed as if my music collection grew massively overnight as I became far more aware of the bass on the recordings. Have a listen to yours and hear what the bass is doing, especially rhythmically, it’s not a bad way to learn your new role. Add to that the techniques available as mentioned in the online resources mentioned by @lownote and you should be well away.

    That’s what I’d surmise. Link to the BD LaBella page https://www.bassdirect.co.uk/bass_guitar_specialists/LaBella_Flatwound_strings.html

    Ooh, tough one. Of the 3 purchases I made this year, they’re all very different and all do what they were purchased for very well. Bass wise, I guess my shorty ‘Ray, as this has convinced me that short scale is the way forward for me (says the man who just acquired a 42” scale bass ).

    Welcome to BC and back to the bass fold.

    The definition of insanity is expecting any thread on BC to stay on topic throughout.

    Plenty of mature (at least in years ) types here, you’re amongst friends.

    Yes, he has.

    I was wondering about this mod myself today. Yeah, that works, that really works. Now I want one!
