I have a BB400S fretless bought in the mid 80s. I really ought to use it more!

For oldies how about. Tree The Dourmost Sad Company

I have one of those Ibanez BTB 5 string multiscales and also a Fender Dimension Deluxe (MIM) 5 string, so I am on the fence as I like both basses.

I started out with a cheap Japanese bass in the late 60s as my dad was able to get one from a supplier (he was a Piano Tuner). I joined some friends as a bass player in the early 70s, learning as I went along! Upgrading to a “customised” Futurama 6 string bass. After a few years I progressed to a Fender Jazz. I was with a couple of groups in the 70s but lost interest in the late 70s as the second group wasn’t exactly over-worked! I started playing in a Church Music Group in the mid 80s and have been doing that ever since. Recently also playing (with a volcanist and pianist) for a singalong session in the Church. Popular songs from the 70s and before, mostly. I have acquired a “few” more basses along the way, the last being a Fender Vintera II 6 string bass as there was a £150 off deal! I’d wanted one for years almost getting one instead of the Jazz. But it was scruffy.
