This makes decades of compulsive bass buying look like a pretty sensible way of waving goodbye to all yr money

I need to stop reading these, I'm pìssing the day away...... ERNIE BALL 5 STRING BASS GUITAR Serial No: 50070. In my third group ‘Revenge’, I decided that I was going to become a new me. I set off for The London Bass Centre clutching £300, which I had convinced myself would be enough for a new change of guitar identity. It’s the musicians equivalent of ‘Gonna wash that man right out of my hair!’. When I got there, I was shocked to discover that even an entry-level 4 string professional bass guitar was in excess of £700! stinky poo! I tried this and loved it. It was used on the song ‘Surf Nazis’, but as above never suited me or any other song. That low C… was not for me. Cost £850.00 had to max out my credit card ;( FIRST EVER CHRIS ECCLESHALL PETER HOOK EBO HOLLOW BODY BASS GUITAR. With hard case. The very first ‘Chris Eccleshall Peter Hook EBO hollow body BB1200s’ ever made. Christened HOT because it bloody was. A great guitar. Used on every New Order gig since 1982. The Original. The hollow body enabled it to feed back whenever you wanted it to. You should have seen Barney’s face. Chris, rest in peace! Shortly after presenting me with the last guitar he ever made, he passed.’ Viking 2’ ready for heading off to Valhalla. 2006 IVOR NOVELLO AWARD. Presented to Peter Hook on 25.05.2006 for Outstanding Song Collection. Presented in association with PRS by the British Academy of Composers & Songwriters and also includes Ticket, Programme, Letter of Nomination & Collectors Programme. These do’s used to be wild. The new sober me though saw them completely differently. At the end of this one, some bloke came up to me and said, "Hooky….your sober now yeh?" I agreed, expecting a friend of Bob's. "Shame," he said, “Your food fights were legendary mate. I was sat next to Bono at The Q Awards and you got him right on the head with a bread roll, closely followed by Iggy Pop. Great shots. Take care!" and off he went...

Have you considered having this as your signature?

It's worth browsing through the catalogue just for his commentary

Presumably the reward exists to tempt people into dobbing in their associates?

The prototype of that is Lot 21

@AndyTravis sorry its insisting on tagging you here too 🤷🏻‍♂️

@AndyTravis lots 142-145 Red basses

I was playing a little game in my head, deciding which of A and B would saunter in and answer the question first. I thought for this bass, probably A rather than B?

Toni Basil's Hey Mickey

Blimey I enjoyed that

I was wondering if the Kiloton would be similarly useful, but having gone away and listened again, it's a bit too rounded and wholesome a tone – hasn't got that needling quality that the Stingray can do. Still, can imagine it sounding good growling away underneath a single guitar that's more jangly-fuzzy than thickly-aggressive

When I was a 16 or 17, having been superceded as a guitarist by my later-starting but far-more-gifted friend, I was trying to play bass on a borrowed P, but deciding it was physically too much for me. Half a lifetime of fannying around later, I screwed up my courage, and challenged myself with the least challenging bass I could find. One year on, that's gone, and I've got a P, and I'm loving it. What a muppet 🙄

Sounds perfect for a punk band, tbh: a rhythm section and a singer

I thought it went this way: if the E & A go up a notch of size, they have to go up a notch of tension, and that makes them brighter and less boomy? When I tried Rotosound 66s at 45 65 80 105, that A string seemed to be more bassy, less vivid.

If I've not got my brain in a twist, your spot is about halfway between where a standard swapped around P is, and where the reverse P on a Mark Hopper is

You know somethings going well when it looks good even before the strings have been put on

I voted Jam, and merely specified what kind of jam I would prefer, if possible. Nota bene the groove in the top – as the Assistant Director of Music used to tell us at school, always good when fiddling with a knob to know just how much you've turned it on.

May we tempt sir with the Violone in D - five or six strings, but with frets. And not too many of them neither. "The preferred contrabass instrument of the Viennese Classical era" ie. good for Haydn, Mozart, Beethoven etc

The beautiful CLF Research knob for me please

Never heard a demo of OMG and thought, that's a noise I want to make 🤷‍♂️ The single inners in these demos though, yes please
