It does seem that there were some batches that had blemishes on them straight out of the pack. Out of the umpteen sets that I have had, I’ve only ever had one string with a blemish and that was in a free set. Others were not so lucky. I’ve bought 2 sets in the last 12 months, no issues and certainly nothing on the older sets.

First one, obviously - Yamaha BB300. First Fender - a US made Jazz. ’63 P, first and only vintage bass. JMJ Mustang, first shorty and my current go to. NS WAV, first upright of any description.

A BiSonic would look (and no doubt sound) awesome on that.

Not the first time we’ve seen this type of thing on BC either.

Ulna The Lonely - Elvis P

Click bait always works, it’s just how much willpower the reader possesses to not actually hit the link. Plainly, @Reggaebass and myself have little of that.

Move On Up - Curtis Mayfield

I Drove All Night - Roy Orbison

Joe using one live.

I Can’t Drive 55 - Sammy Hagar

We Are The Champions - Queen

The Bet’s Too Big Without You - The Police

Likewise. An overblown, overlong piece of schlock opera, with the nastiest, wasp in a jam jar guitar tone ever (what was Todd Rundgren thinking?). I’ve also fallen out of love with the Quo recently, no particular song, although Just Supposin’ grinds my gears; ‘runny nosing’ WTF? The skip function on the Planet Rock app is a blessing.

Against All Odds - Phil Collins

Weed Bus - The Stairs

Listen Like Thieves - INXS

Looking ‘good’, at least it’s still there. Hopefully, it’ll harden up.

The OP’s one certainly soaked up something.

Yup, sounds just like it should do. Very nice.

I saw the Neville Brothers live once, having been turned onto them by a Jools Holland program; they were marvellous.

I hoped against hope for something funky and steeped in gumbo, but no, I was presented with something far more predictable in the UK. Disappointed.

Heaven Knows I’m Miserable Now - The Smiths
