  1. piano > guitar > bass > chapman stick > drums I swap between them all now. Most competent on guitar. If I was in a band I think I'd prefer to be bass player. Note: I'm not claiming to be any good at all on any instrument!
  2. A good haircut, trendy clothes and the ability to widdle endlessly and slap furiously through all genres. I'm sure I'll pass an audition one day.
  3. Wow, two totally amazing basses in one thread! I'd have them both if I could afford them ...
  4. Great looking bass there! If I did the 4 string thing that would be right up there with my most desirable basses.
  5. [quote name='jonnyj' post='847050' date='May 24 2010, 11:39 PM']You can either collect or I will deliever.[/quote] Might be worth saying where you are!
  6. Amazing looking beast there! In an ideal world of money and available space I'd get it just for a go, but sadly I don't have the money or the space. I'd edit a few of the bumps out, you only need one showing!
  7. I haven't touched a bass for two weeks. As a non-gigging multi-instrumentalist I go hot & cold on some instruments occasionally, but that's the most I've been off the bass since I bought that one about 16 months ago. What I find frustrating is our annual holiday - the wife bans ANY instrument! (to be honest there isn't room with 4 kids and all gear in a single vehicle). You could have done with one of those tiny Ashbory basses, they are supposed to be really good:
  8. Graphite necks - I like the look of them, I like the feel of them. I just like wood better. You just can't beat a bit of organic!
  9. I might check it out. I've gone hot and cold on Stanley over the years but he's due a spin again.
  10. Great achievement! Well done.
  11. I like tele's and that's a real good 'un, but that colour is a bit OTT for me! Best of luck selling.
  12. Very nice, and I like the multi angles on the video as well. I like the look of your stick - what's it made from? Glad to see that I'm not the only stick player around here!
  13. I'm always up for temptation! Good to see the pix, it's a great looking bass indeed. My next purchase [i]probably[/i] won't be a bass as it happens, but I always check out stuff that sounds interesting, as you never know. I'm slowly building the GAS fund again right now and keeping options open ...
  14. I play geetar most days. I wish orange would make a black amp as well. I could never own an ugly 'orange' one - yuk!
  15. Up you jump with a bump bump bump, but post no pix and we all grump.
  16. That would be a great gig to get!
  17. Just for info: the book is now in my evil clutches MWOAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!
  18. Damn that Avatar! I was just thinking what's CrazyKiwi doing in Glasgowshire when the penny dropped. Can I suggest you getting an Avatar that hasn't been used extensively before! Anyway, I assume that it's a MIM? I'm kind of half thinking about a Tele at the moment, but I'm a bit short of readies right now as I was underpaid last month! Still not sure about a Tele, but I'm thinkin ........
  19. I assume that was taken the first of the 40 years ....
  20. Looks very well made indeed! My dad could make an excellent guitar, I'm sure. He has an engineering background and is brilliant with all forms of woodwork and metalwork. He has a couple of books on building acoustic guitars but he's never got around to it.
  21. Great looking bass. If I did the 4 string thing that would be top of my shopping list.
  22. Hmmmmn, I really like Euro 5's, especially in poplar burl. Mr Bank Manager says no though.
  23. I managed to pick up basic technique somehow, but I seem to have been stuck in a rut for ages as to where else to go with it. I guess I need to go work out some RHCP or summat??? Love playing slap though, with the right track there's nothing like it for fun!
  24. Totally love it! And that's the first time I've seen a single cut bass and actually liked the look of it. I'd have preferred the bass a touch louder and the drums a touch quieter, but maybe it's just my laptop speakers??
  25. Three for me: Geddy Lee Billy Sheehan Stu Hamm
