I’m disappointed, I thought it was going to be Humble & Packham stalking Mr May.

Phew! Well done.

That ‘Ray5 😍

When adding new posts to threads today, the site seems to be stalling on "saving', requiring a page refresh to see the post. Anyone else having got is issue? I'm using Safari. EDIT: It didn't happen to post this question.

They really are quite the talented couple. DT’s slide playing is always amazing and ST is no slouch either, plus the voice. On the whole, I quite liked the recreation, but I missed the massive drum sound. Should’ve got Jason B to do it.

They breed too.

It wasn’t until I got to number 5 that I realised that the list was bass related and not, er, um. Perhaps I’ll just leave it there.

No, it’s a sincere warning. If you choose to ignore it is on you. It’s too late for some of us . Be afraid, be very afraid.

The J bass certainly.

I gave my, fairly large, vinyl collection to a friend (it was just sitting in the loft) some years ago. I don’t miss the crackles, the jumps and skips, the potential for worn out sections or the space required for storage, at all. What I do miss is the package they came in. Big enough to sit it on your lap and read the notes or get lost in the properly sized photos or some of the more complex artwork (Roger Dean, etc).

Sadly, this seems to be the vast majority of FOH engineers that I’ve come across.

And totally lost in the over the top bass drum.

I used to say (see yell), "I will cut it off!" All with a laugh of course

Fish puns? Why am I only herring about them now? I’ve plainly missed out. Hopefully, they were batter than the usual offerings.

Recent thread here with many suggestions…

To be fair, I’m mostly nitpicking as I’m more than happy with it. I can pretty much find fault with instruments at any price point if I’m honest, none of my basses are perfect in every way (for me). I’d certainly consider buying another ‘Ray SS and having it made fretless if I couldn’t find an already bumpless shorty. I think it’d make a great fretless.

Looks like Joe Dart is embracing the short scale vibe even more theses days, looks like a Musicmaster to me. https://www.instagram.com/p/CZ2DjxBoygw/ https://www.instagram.com/p/CZuVI8ZIm6r/

I hope I’m not trying to teach my grandmother to suck eggs, but I think the best way to achieve a natural(ish) look to forearm wear, would be to to attach a piece of fine grade sandpaper to the forearm and pretend to play it. Otherwise, it can look all a bit ‘belt sander’ relic.

😱 NO! Back away from the cliff edge!

That body already looks nicely tatty, I doubt you’d need much more in the way of dinks for an authentic look, just a little ‘de-glossing’. Looking forward to the updates on this one.

Good work on posting a picture of your bass in your intro; nice. 👏👏👏
