It was quite alright and used it in a few gigs as I get sometimes a kick out of playing a ridiculously cheap bass. It upsets snobs

I like your style.

Shuker. John Shuker was all the rage when I joined Basschat, but then seemed to lose momentum.

Letts

Hats. Used to be all about the hats.

Still is in the upright bass section, it's compulsory to wear head gear on a double bass.

His basses were never flavour of the month... Suing him was flavour of he month for a while though.

Ha ha! You might wanna ask Jon about that, he's never been so busy I reckon! Have you seen the amount of orders he's produced recently single-handedly? - and every instrument is absolutely stunning! I'd say that Shuker was also THE big rage right back at the dawn of time, which we know was called 'Bassworld v.1'

Still going strong!

But doesn't get mentioned on here anything like as often as he once did. I assumed it was about Basschat flavour of the month rather than popularity in the whole wide world.

Genz Benz - had one myself and never got on with the tone!

I don't think genz counts as they were still popular when fender pulled the plug on them, their bass chat demise was driven by outside forces
