    [quote name='Paul S' timestamp='1488641156' post='3250705'] We are having a conversation... [/quote] Bingo - Danny bought a Yamaha BB5000 for me today, looks like a corker. I am impatient already! Thanks for flagging this up folks!

    [quote name='bubinga5' timestamp='1490476058' post='3265454'] it comes down to the word subjective. i don't want to sound arty farty, but the word always has resonance in music and the arts. [/quote] Indeed. I didn't particularly like Nik Kershaw back in the day - dismissing him as a pretty boy with little talent - but seeing him recently has completely overturned that opinion. Perhaps it is the context of a guitar and keys band now, rather than the big synth sound. He is actually a very accomplished guitar player.

    That is fantastic to hear. Such a great bass deserves to be played. I actually bought it and collected it from a man in Holland, so I guess it has almost gone full circle.

    Nik Kershaw also tours a lot with Go West - I've seen them three times together now. Mr Kershaw is one of those charismatic individuals it is hard to ignore - massive stage presence. Incredibly funny to see them doing the same arm movements at one point - Nik and Peter Cox are, how can we say, very different altitudinally - very obviously done on purpose for comic effect. At one gig they both did a cover of one of each other's songs - Nik rearranged 'Missing Persons' and it was stunning.

    Yikes! Thanks for that. I can happily stop looking now

    Are you able to weigh this fairly accurately, please?
  7. Paul S
    How much does this weigh, please?

    I use Teamup for one band too. And you can export entries into Google, which is useful.

    [quote name='timmo' timestamp='1489879046' post='3260583'] What can you say about Chuck Berry, except legend [/quote] Some people might add he was a pervert and one of the nastiest human beings on the planet. But, yes, musically the world would be a very different place but for his genius.

    Depends entirely upon the sound you want, really. For me it is the Fender Original but others prefer Seymour Duncan 1/4lb er, which I find way too harsh. It is all so very subjective.

    OK, so this is a BT4, not a BT8. I am stupid and have caused myself and the guy interested some problems. So, here it is folks, a Hipshot BT4! Unhelpfully this isn't listed on the Hipshot website (one reason for my error), but Bestbassgear has this to say - 'The BT4 fits - American-made Fender '82-'84's, '90 and newer Elit's, P-Bass+ and J-Bass+, American Standard Jazz, and Deluxe P-Bass+ with thin stamped cloverleaf key.' Whatever that means. [url="http://www.bestbassgear.com/hipshot-bt4-bass-xtender.htm"]http://www.bestbassgear.com/hipshot-bt4-bass-xtender.htm[/url]

    On hold.....

    The one I want is the 5 string version of the BB3000, the BB5000. Actually that is incorrect, the one I NEED is the BB5000. Strongest GAS I have ever encountered...

    You could do a lot worse than an Orange TB500. I've just got one to use with my Supercompact and am enjoying it a lot.

    I generally have burger and chips before a pub gig at the venue, if they offer such a thing. Would that be Brit Floyd, by any chance? Difficult to tell from your avatar pic but you resemble their bass player.

    I've previously owned a Ibanez SR300, Squier VM Jazz and currently own a Yamaha BB425. I'd take the Yamaha over any of those every time.

    [quote name='skankdelvar' timestamp='1489595836' post='3258263'] I always forget which came first: Rococobilly or Baroqueabilly. [/quote] I feel a band coming on... Big King Louis and the Barockettes, playing a selection of French 17th century rock and roll ditties.

    Bump!
