    Brilliant 👍😊 Which well know singer was it Chris?

    Beautiful looking P Bass! I had one of these some years ago and it was a joy to play and sounded great. No doubt that this one will be too... GLWTS 😊

    Awesome! 👍😊 Same thing happened to some friends of mine in a band called KXB (from West Sussex) some years ago... They were playing 'Gay Bar' at one of their regular local Saturday night gigs, and Tyler Spencer, aka Richard Valentine, Electric 6's lead vocalist got up from the crowd and joined them on stage!

    Very sad news indeed, and I echo all the comments made so for - John was such a creative and musical bass player... I saw him performing with Kate Bush in London in 2014 - his work with Omar Hakim on those 'Before The Dawn' shows was truly, truly exceptional. RIP. 😔

    Just sold a Bass Collection P Bass to @Ralf1e.. It was a very easy transaction from start to finish and Ralfe is a really nice person to deal with and chat with and he's definitely a credit to this Forum. So, I'm more than happy to recommend him to everyone here on Basschat. Thanks Ralfe - it was a pleasure to meet you today and I really hope you enjoy the bass! 👍😊 Nik

    👍 Time to start planning about a mini Beds/Bucks/Cambs Bass Bash methinks....

    Well said @Rayman... And all the best for a full recovery @NickD 🙏
  13. silverfoxnik
    Amen to that! @Rayman Playing bass, playing music with other people and being around creative people keeps me sane, lifts my spirits and keeps me young (in my head and heart)... This place helps quite a bit too... 👍

    Same problem here.. 'My bass cup doth overfloweth'.. Or words to that effect.. 😂

    Saturday morning BUMP for this beauty! 😊 No takers, no offers, no trade offers even ?? 🤔 Clearly, I have offended the Bass Gods and they have put a curse on my basses, and their descendants, for all eternity... 😁 Have a good weekend Folks!

    I don't know about Chris McBride @bubinga5, but Man, that Drummer!! 👏👏👏 I don't play music like that, nor can I play bass like that, but I do like George Duke and his music... It's always had a good, positive vibe about it. And isn't it great that audiences enjoy and respect great musicianship and that there's the space for musicians to be able to express themselves so freely ? But, going back to your original point, I agree with you about the use of vibrato by some fretless bass players - used too much and it tends to overshadow everything else good in the bass part... For want of a better analogy, a bit like overseasoning a simple meal with really good ingredients.. But I think in some genres of music, it's actually expected to be there as part of the sound - like slap bass in certain types of funk music - and this is one of those genres.

    +1 Beautiful colour and such a cool retro vibe.... GLWTS

    It's always a pleasure dealing with @gary mac. Apart from doing yet another great set up job on 2 of my basses last week, Gary did both jobs really quickly for me as I needed them for a recording session. For any North London, Herts, Essex Basschatters looking to have some work done on their basses or guitars, look no further than Gary! Thanks again Gary.... 👍😊

    *** NOW SOLD *** Hi Folks, Bass Collection Power Bass for sale in excellent condition. £SOLD or very near offer. As stated above, the bass is in 'as new' condition, has a nice low action so is super-playable, the electronics are all fine, the truss rod is working perfectly, and it's a very lightweight bass. Comes with a Pro Tec gig bag Most important of all, it sounds exactly like a P Bass should! Bought 2 years ago from @greyparrot for a recording project but that's finished now, hence why it's up for sale And to be honest, if I hadn't recently bought a 50s reissue P Bass on here, I'd probably be keeping this as it's so easy to play, sounds great and looks fantastic IMO, but such is life here on Basschat, even for super-pretty basses like this one! 😁 Collection or meet up preferred within 50 miles of Potton, Central Bedfordshire. And of course, trials very welcome here with your or my bass amps/cabs. Kettle very much set to 'on' position... Any questions, please ask away here or please send me a PM. Thanks for looking.. 😊 Nik

    Awesome 👍
  23. silverfoxnik
    That sounds familiar... 🙄😁😂
  24. silverfoxnik
    Enjoyed that - thanks for sharing! 👍😊

    Ooh, er!! 😯 At first glance at the title of this thread, I thought you were in grave danger of getting cancelled by the wokerati, @Rayman... Happily, that's not going to be the case I see, and we can all settle back down from DEFCON 5 to another quiet and unassuming bass guitar discussion... In my experience, there isn't 'one bass to rule them all', and even if there was, it'd still end up doing the rounds on Basschat for sale forum I expect.. Personally, I like playing slap bass lines on my custom T-Bird (though I doubt anyone else would agree), but despite it's flexibility, I still want and need other basses with different pick up configurations, becjs, woods, ergonomics, electronics etc, etc, to best suit the different bands and recording projects I'm doing. What's more, I genuinely think I'd get bored with just one bass.
