That’s a very good point Tony, I stand corrected 🙏

Until about 2-mins ago I had no idea this existed, but now I do, it seems the worst of both Worlds; a fretted bass that's gonna be way harder to play than a standard EB and probably not sound anything like as good, and an upright bass that doesn;t do any of the magic that a standard upright or even EUB can do on account of having no frets. Sorry if that wasn't much help

Body = lovely Pickguard............ WTF?

If you read a topic it doesn't show up in 'unread content' until there's a new post, even if it's one of your own threads. Not sure if that's the problem or if it's something that can be changed in settings

I mean, yes it's unlikely to ever be the go-to for the gigging pro, but I've seen worse. We've all seen worse............

Fixed it for you Luke 👍

There's a lot of truth in that 👍

Not sure any of that's true, there's quite a few for sale now and always tend to be, they're as popular as Jazzes (the main competition), more popular than 'rays and derivatives, and way more popular than Rics

Must be, I lost a fiver in the late 80's, a mate of mine found a fiver in 2002 a few streets away, I made him give it back to me

That's web content mate, everything's either too short or too long 🤔

Advice which guarantees it’ll never sell 🤔

Anyone who loves high-quality vintage amplification needs to check out Mike's FS threads and get in quick because he has some absolute beauties! I came away from Mike's with some big boxes at very generous prices and I'm very pleased I did. Needless to say given the feedback already posted in this thread, Mike's a real gent to deal with 👍

@Owen I thought you had moved beyond such technology If DIY fixes don't work I'll dig out the details of the mic repair guy recommended to me a while back, rates seemed reasonable 👍

That's what tube amps are for 👍

Thr Baroque rhythm section (double bass/cello and harpsichord usually) was f***ing awesome, predating similar awesomeness by the likes of Chic by about 300 years 👍
