I'm finding the older I get the more this kind of thing boils my p!ss! I'm sick and tired of a societ that feels they have a right to be offended by everything, and more to the point that the rest of us should give a flying f@#* if and when they are. I honestly couldn't care less if a person is black, white, brown, blue,or sky blue pink with yellow dots. I also don't care if they're gay, straight, transgender or like to dress like Elvis in a blonde wig, but if I inadvertantly do something to offend one of these people, like maybe looking in their general direction or breathing too loudly, why do they then feel they have a right to speak for their whole "community" when claiming offence? The real irony is I'm far less tolerant now than I used to be for this very reason. This sound "person" should be sacked and never work in the industry again. Sorry, not sorry!

Harley Benton stuff is just ridiculously good value for money. Superb quality to price ratio. Although personally I much prefer this to the one posted above.... https://www.thomann.de/gb/harley_benton_bz_4000_nt.htm

Gretsch Junior Jet 2. Absolutely trounces anything else in the price range. It's a perfectly giggable bass with unbelievable build quality, looks great and sounds absolutely superb!

I've had this exact same thing. I don't get it. Surely it's easier to just bring the bloody parcel to the door that it is to faff about writing a card.

Well if you've only got the one you can probably have a whip round and pay him back for the ticket.

Why?! I'm afraid I just don't get it, and I never will. Why anyone wound pay a grand extra for a f#cked up looking bass is absolutely beyond my comprehension. I'd rather save a grand and f#ck it up myself through years of hard work and gigging. Maybe then I could sell it for a grand more than I paid for it?

Don't worry we've all been there. Wake up only to find your night time GAS has been more costly than you expected. Clean up on isle three!

I'm thinking of quitting my current band. It's getting more and more obvious by the day that the singer hates me. Mind you it's my own fault. I probably shouldn't have married her.

Can I add a 3rd. 3. It's got loads of nobs and a switch. Everyone knows more is better. If one of them goes up to 11 it's my dream bass.

1. It's not a Fender. 2. It's not ridiculously overpriced (like a Fender)

Sounds kosher. I'm in!

But is it any good for..........erm.........

That'll be the pink hair.

I'd take white over black if those were my only two options.

That's definitely a one song bass. https://youtu.be/ZyhrYis509A

Weirdly neither do I. They just happened to be that colour.

Cool. Were you playing at the circus? 😁

I like the last one. It's even got the correct number of strings which seems to be getting rarer these days. 😋

Never heard of her. OK voice but musically not really my thing.

Natural wood every time for me given the option. But it's kind of like cars, where unless it's something especially horrid, then colour is pretty low on the list of priorities. Price / quality / condition rate much higher than colour.

Yeah if you had the sound off then you kind of missed the point. 😋

Ha ha. Scary thing is, I actually quite like the body shape.

You can get vinyl banners made up with your own designs / artwork at vista print. You just do it all online. It's dead easy. I always found them quite reasonable. https://www.vistaprint.com/signs-posters/vinyl-banners?xnid=TopNav_Vinyl+Banners_Banners_Signs+and+Posters&xnav=TopNav

New bass and pedal flight case about 2 weeks ago. New strings and strap yesterday (neither of which I actually "needed")
