I was offered tickets to see Andy Powells Wishbone Ash in Frome last night, unfortunately I couldn't make it. I had some communication with Bob Skeat about a bass I was selling. He came across as a nice bloke, offered tickets after deciding it wasn't the right bass. Hopefully I'll see them another time. I heard from a friend the show last night was very good.

Nativity in Black - Black Sabbath

Jack the ripper -Motorhead

Space man - Babylon Zoo

Dixie whisky - Eyehategod

I think he used two of them sometimes.

4 strings were enough for Sid Vicious

Communication breakdown - Zeppelin. I don't like Zeppelin. Is it OK to admit that?

Happy Talk - Captain Sensible

My friend in misery - Metallica

Long slow goodbye - Queens Of The Stone Age & Alain Johannes

Farting with a Walkman on - Bloodhound Gang

From the sky - Gojira

Little fluffy clouds - The Orb

Birdman blues - Bobby Gordon

Killing time - HED(Pe) Someone clearly had some time to kill!

You mean it had an ashtray AND a driver seat headrest??? That's some serious luxury.

People do pay crazy money for old crap. Just look at the value of Austin Allegro's, up to £10k for a really tidy one and they were terrible cars.

This morning it's a bit of post punk by Savages. A great band who unfortunately split after only a couple albums.

I didn't know who he is so googled him. In a Google image search, there aren't any pictures of him playing a black jazz bass. He may have owned it but was it something he used as a shelf in the shed and didn't actually play?

Magic moments - Snuff

Sit down - James This song stinks bad

I love the look of it. If I had the spare cash I'd buy it exactly as it is. I like that you can see the age and see its worked hard and most importantly, it's real wear and age rather than a new one attacked with sandpaper.

Different basses can have different string length, especially if they have different tuner layout.
