    It's got to be BC Rich. Was it inspired by gentlemen vegetables or lady front lumps?

    All the wrong thickness and shape?

    My 5 string was multi scale with an extra long neck. Amazing sound on the low B and similar tone across all 5 but not as easy to play as a standard 4 string. It was a bit of a modern metal weapon but sometimes it was just nice to play a normal P bass

    Sponsor a bassist. For just £5 a month you can help toilet train a bassist and teach them basic English. Help integrate them in to normal society and buy them basic hygiene products. Get regular update with photos and you can choose the name for your middle aged bassist.

    Some of them don't even change their strings because they can't afford new ones. They say they like the sound of dead strings. Some of them can't even afford a decent effects board.

    Plectrums are a good present. It seems many bassists just can't afford a plectrum so resort to finger picking

    We just got back from my daughters bands gig. Their first headline show. They filled the venue, I've never seen so many people in for a local band. The support acts were good and then her band, Butane Skies, were amazingly good. Loads of confidence on stage and a superb performance. All band parents were proper proud of them

    Beer, wine, whisky or something herbal

    @Kirky they're excellent. Plenty of energy and great playing

    The event was organised by Riverside Studio in Chippenham who also recorded and filmed all the bands who took part. It's really good for a live recording.

    This is my daughters band (she plays bass) playing one of their original songs at a young bands competition they played last year. There's no single winner in this event but a group of promoters pick their favourite band in the finals to play their festival. They ended up getting three gigs out of it.

    My daughter plays bass. She took on my first bass when I upgraded. Over the last four years, she's got far better than me. Her alternative rock band have played a ton of gigs this year after winning a battle of the bands competition. She's just started a commercial music degree at Bath uni so now playing lots every day.

    For me, playing in a band was all about the sound of the whole band as one. I'd get my moments to shine but if I was concerned about expressing my emotions I'd have chosen to play guitar. The bass is about putting in the groove and making people move.
