  1. Exactly like mine then! Great basses, I love mine 👍
  2. Sounds just like mine, except for the stripped neck. There's a website where you can ID them from the logo - http://www.musicmanbass.global/headstock-logos-part-2/
  3. Given that £50 is about right for an empty Hiscox I'd say you did alright! I'm not sure I fully agree that your first bass should be easy to play. A bit like having a crappy first car - it gives you a greater appreciation of decent equipment later on.
  4. I just sampled some of their output on Spotify - the only remarkable thing for me was quite how unremarkable they sound. Possibly the most anodyne music I've ever heard, but maybe that's what the young folks want these days?
  5. The string routing is correct, it's just the lack of trimming that's wrong 👍
  6. Are you using a decent, proper, 2 core speaker cable?
  7. Also a good reminder of just how good Phil Collins was back in the day. 👍
  8. With really dirty boards I use a heavy dose of lemon oil to soften the grime, clean off with the cheapest fragrance free baby wipes and then reapply lemon oil.
  9. You'd think, but it doesn't quite work like that for me 😇
  10. That's how I play, but don't really get up the dusty end. I have really long arms so don't struggle for reach.
  11. This is underplaying things slightly - my dad played bass, I was surrounded by it in my first years. After he gave up playing one of the jobs my dad had was to setup Mike Oldfield's studio at Througham Slad, and then engineer for him. https://images.app.goo.gl/JPAsYqNcJPTixr4E8 I always wanted to play the P-bass in this photo whenever I saw it leant against the wall, of course I was forbidden to touch it at 5 years old! I grew up listening to Mike Oldfield, Pierre Moerlen, Ian Dury, Peter Gabriel and The Stranglers. It was inevitable I would play bass.
  12. A slight understatement!
