And where's the left handed option? Eh?

I still don't get it. Why would anyone want to see a band/act pretending to be someone else?

As is usually the case. Recently purcheased an OLP Stinkray,the vendor was most apologetic about a delay involving the courier collecting a small empty box from his recycling instead of the large bass sized one with THIS ONE written on it.And the small empty box they delivered after the bass arrived was most useful.

Live it's strictly Fender Precision on heat,in a studio setting I'll experiment a little.

I'd post pictures of mine,but I don't want the site to get in trouble...The only flaw I found was the selector switch,easily replaced.

Can't stand 'em,but they're tight as tight can be,andI'll talk technical with Mike Dirnt again any day.

I just don't get tribute acts.Each to their own.

I use all three.

Glad it turned out ok.Generally,just excercise common sense,and handcuff the bass to yourself when you're not using it.We've all got handcuffs,right? Or is that just me...

AAAAAAAAARGH

Being asked to leave a band for any reason sucks big time and is a major blow to one's ego.Happened to me once some decades ago,the singer said to me " we're splitting up for a while and doing our own thing".Ok.What he failed to tell me that was his own thing was to carry on with the rest of the band ( who,it turned out,wondered why I left..) with his new mate on bass.Shortly after that,the new band chucked HIM out...20 years later I'm in a reasonably succesful band with the guitarist from that band,and the previous singer has cleaned himself up from the nasty drugs he was taking that we didn't know about.

Twas Stiff Little Fingers,so it would have been Ali McMordie.

I dunno,people not using their real names...

Awesome.If any left handed ones do turn up.....

There are cheaper ways of not doing an encore.

[attachment=116564:007.JPG] Does this count? It was Olympic White 34 years ago..

[attachment=116555:imagesCAJM9AZI.jpg] I know I've posted this before,just did a Google Image search for 1978 Fender P's and there it was...along with several potentially embarrasing pics of myself..
