leschirons Posted March 25, 2014 Posted March 25, 2014 Ah, the jaded apathy of old age is upon me. There may be 3 at most I wouldn't mind a quick plunk on if the opportunity arose and none of them are really that exotic or expensive Quote
Diablo Posted March 25, 2014 Posted March 25, 2014 I guess the cheap Chinese copy of a PJ that is in my local cash converters didn't make the top 10 then? Quote
Annoying Twit Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 I'm already concerned that I'm taking the P a bit in terms of trying out basses at my local shops. If I tried to cover 100 basses, they'd probably all chip in for a hitman. Quote
paul_5 Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 I'd be more interested in a 100 bass[i]lines[/i] to play before you die special. Quote
BigRedX Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 Here's my top 10 bass guitars I still need to play: 1. Ampeg ASB-1 2. Atlansia Pegasus 3. Bassimer STD 4. BassLab L-Bow 5. EGC Series 1 Bass 6. Little Torzal Standard Bass 7. Mike Lull T-Bass 8. Norton Merlin 9. Ritter Raptor 10. Spalt Hybrid Do I win? Quote

Pow_22 Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 for me its a 1962 P Bass, Ric 4005, 1957 P Bass and a Gibson EB2 Quote

[/quote] *GRIN* Of course the real top 10 will be so obvious and vanilla that you could stick a flake in it and call it a "99". Quote
bassmachine2112 Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 Top 100,I,d be struggling to name 10 Quote
FinnDave Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 [quote name='bassmachine2112' timestamp='1395851445' post='2407167'] Top 100,I,d be struggling to name 10 [/quote] I can only think of two, and they're both in the room with me. Quote
SubsonicSimpleton Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 I would like to play all Mark King's basses with a 14lb sledgehammer please, and if it is possible to arrange for me to have a go on all of Kenny G's saxes at the same jam session I would be much obliged. Quote
Roland Rock Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 [quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1395816899' post='2406564'] 10. Spalt Hybrid [/quote] ...looks like the kind of bass to play AFTER you die Quote
Telebass Posted March 27, 2014 Posted March 27, 2014 (edited) Just two. Ampeg ASB-1 and Gibson EB-2. Edited March 27, 2014 by Telebass Quote

paul_5 Posted March 27, 2014 Posted March 27, 2014 Wal, '51 P bass, '61 Jazz bass, Warwick Dolphin, Rickenbacker 4001, Fodera coffee table, Gibson EB-0, Carl Thompson, Alembic spaceship, MusicMan StingRay. just outside the top ten would be something like: Sue Ryder P Bass, Stagg PJ, Squier Bronco and one of those chipboard Hohner short scales that I started on.

Mornats Posted May 25, 2014 Posted May 25, 2014 Great to see an Android version! Nick, would you be so kind as to detail the subscription costs please? Some people are perturbed by not being able to see them up front on the Google Play page. When I last had a very quick peek you had to hit the subscribe button to see them eek! Quote
