BijouDrains Posted July 25, 2014 Posted July 25, 2014 (edited) I'm new to the forum. Been playing 35 years; 1st bass a Hagstrom, then a slotted heastock Gibson EB-0 (1969). then lots over the years! Currently I have an early 90s Jerry Jones, 4 string longhorn in copper and I play it through a Trace Elliot Commando 15 (mid-90s). Pedals: DoD Envelope filter (bought in 1979) and EH Bassballs got at the same time as the DoD. Favourite bass players: Mike Watt and John Entwistle. Edited July 25, 2014 by BijouDrains Quote

BijouDrains Posted July 25, 2014 Author Posted July 25, 2014 Thanks for the welcome. Here are some snaps. I bought it off someone in Devon about 5 years ago. She had the pickup selector switch replaced with a "mixer knob", this was done at Mansons. Small scale; fits perfect in a Hiscox guitar case (can't remember what guitar the case is for originally). Great player - easy!

PlungerModerno Posted August 4, 2014 Posted August 4, 2014 Hi there, everyone gets GAS from time to time, it's only natural. As long as you aren't constantly giving into it you'll manage. Quote
