Sorry for spamming, I hadn't noticed the page had flipped back one and I'd posted the thing multiple times. This not being able to delete your own posts thing is rubbish.

Here's a video from last night showing the close quarters, taken by the guitarist's husband who was stood at the bar. The lady with the green hair tie and her mate in the blue dress were the perpetrators of the bass to the head incidents.

After somehow managing to squeeze a five-piece band into a space about 8' square last night, and having hit a couple of people in the head because of the close quarters, a headless bass sounds very appealing for smaller venues.

Even Jamie Carragher thinks our working area is a bit cosy... Back to Huddersfield to play at The Plumbers Arms. Got lost three times on the way there (thanks, Google Maps!) but fortunately our ability to setup was hampered by the pub being full of people watching the Newcastle v Liverpool game so I wasn't late. We had barely enough room to fit all our gear and us with not enough tables being moved and the pub being rammed because of the bank holiday.My entire rig (bar my pedal board) is hidden by our guitarist Jen and her big coat, but it comprised my Sire V7, Trace Elliot Elf head and Barefaced Two10S in portrait mode. I was told to turn down twice, so I could barely hear myself as I was stood in between the PA speaker and the guitar amp, but muscle memory got me through again. I only managed to brain two people with the head of my bass, but both were gracious about it and promised not to sue us. The landlord even tried to book us for another gig before Christmas but for various reasons this isn't feasible, so hopefully we'll play there again in the new year.

It very much appears to be. As the original isn't on FB any more I'm guessing someone's flipped it.

Not a P-bass but I did play a Vintera 70s Jazz, and while it was excellent I preferred my Squier VM 70s Jazz. Make of that what you will.

Yep, totally uncool, no respectable artist would ever do that...

I was interested when I messaged but have had second thoughts. Naughty me.

Being a parent to a small child, this is immediately where I went when I saw Bluey...

I haven't gone down this route yet, but I would imagine that modding a bass to your own specifications means resale value isn't high on the prioirites list.

Go Your Own Way - Fleetwood Mac

Yeah, I don't think I'll be buying it as I suspect it would be a project with the various components costing me considerably more than the bass would be worth given how infrequently I'd probably play it.

Mrs asingardenof might disagree with you there

Well he's sent me a photo of the serial number, it's a 2012 Action V. *eyes bank account warily*

Can You See The Love Tonight - Elton John

I'm tempted but am waiting to see if Mr Grumpy Pants comes back with any more info like a higher-resolution photo or serial number. One wonders what dodgy stuff he has on his sofa that he had to redact it though...

Indeed. Looks like a bargain but there's something a bit off about it.

Seen on FB Marketplace. Possibly a Cort Action but I can only see PJ passive instruments on their website not JJ. Does this look legit and does anyone have any experience with these basses? https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1217645552368411

Bright Lights, Bigger City - Cee Lo Green

Suburbia - Pet Shop Boys

I think if I were to come to him afresh I wouldn't bother, but I listened to so much of his stuff when I was a kid thanks to my parents that sentiment plays a large part in me liking certain songs of his.
