Rock without the theatrics sums them up to a degree

Close…..

About 60 secs in, those are proper power chords aren't they?

It was made in Corona CA ............

Getting colder again

No, but I did have a good look at a few though, as I did with Bravewood and Limelight.....

I think there's a degree of the subconscious will involved also

Warmer.....

No, warmer, but no

No, getting colder........

Mmm, close……

it’s not a Warwick mate, sorry

i think it has 11 fewer strings 👍

Ha ha, no not even sure I've seen that. It's very consistent with my previous bass history just an interesting detour that, when I checked, didn't appear to have gained approval

Nope, it was almost a Ric, and I might wish it had been, but it’s not. Good guess thiugh mate 👍

Love that photo, that's how a live rock band should look 👍

Bad but not that bad Clarky mate 👍

I've been playing DB exclusively for the last year, and haven't had an electric since Feb this year. But my old band is reforming for a couple of gigs and I need an electric for that, ans wanting to record some EB also thought it about time that I got an electric again. So, I've been looking for about 6-weeks and have seen a few that i like, and had a few conversations with sellers, but nothing was really sealing the deal. Until yesterday, when a bass popped up that I knew the moment I saw it was the bass for me. So I did some research, and Google led me to Basschat where... 1. There was a 5-page thread describing what a terrible bass it is and 2. I had on more than one occasion been rather critical of the manufacturer I've just got the feeling it's going to be awesome. I'll update once I know

And Strangers is such a great album 👍 There some pretty stiff competition among live double albums in the mid-late '70s; Seconds Out, Live & Dangerous, Song Remains the Same, Kiss Alive, Babylon by Bus, Wings Over America, All The Worlds a Stage, Live Killers and The Last Waltz, but Strangers in the Night, from a band who at the time really weren't in the same league as any of the previous artists, is just such a powerful and well put together album, there's not a weak song on there, and the performances and production are outstanding. If you've not heard it, do yourself a favour, especially if you have a decent set of 'phones 👍

And I flipping loved them. End of But as this is a bass forum, there is some lovely melodic bass in there, serves the song but kinda say "I'm here" Were they Prog

Can't help thinking that supporting members and highly valued members who make a significant contribution to the forum should have pretty much equal status in terms of access to sub-forums?

If you need to ask then you don't

Read every piece I could find on web about this bass. Most owners - not surprisingly - speak very highly of it but two comments blew it for me, bad neck dive and surprisingly heavy varnish on the neck, both of which reminded me of my previous thinline bass which had much the same problems (although in this case I imagine the former might be worse given that rather large Mudbucker). I also emailed BG asking for further details of the actual bass and they very kindly replied with the sort of information you find at the top of a Google search, model number and year or production etc, so that wasn't a great help either, I was hoping for at least "We've played it and it's got a lovely tone, low action" etc. Suspect my expectations might be the problem here

Very nice 👌
