Yes, it was in the east wing which I only use in the summer months..... honest. It’s only a cheap copy that I was given a couple of years ago that has been at the back of a cupboard behind other stuff since we moved. If I’d remembered about it then I would have used it as a template for the short scale Tele bass I’m making rather than have hunted round the web for a plan!!! Doh! Should have the Telebass ready for this bash. Edited March 11, 2021 by Jabba_the_gut 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpondonBassed Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 (edited) 1 hour ago, Machines said: 7, and not bothered with guitars yet. Fair enough. I wonder if there is a recognised age at which kids do switch on. I mean other than wanting to live the lifestyle (as they perceive it from the media). I was wanting to play guitars from about the age of eleven or so. It was purely because I saw and heard them on TOTP and thought I'd love to do that. Of course I wasn't really interested in doing the work... I just wanted a guitar as an ornament really. I only got properly interested after I was pushed into playing bass for some friends. I'm interested because I had had musical tuition at primary some years earlier (recorder and the "promise" of violin later). That stopped when we left England. That experience and the later desire to become a guitarist never sort of met in the middle with me. Schools back then tended to feed the notion that if a piece of music wasn't Classical, it wasn't really music. I hated the tuition. I still have a problem with teachers in general. I get the impression that I am far from unique in this. Of course in these enlightened times ALL music is classified and therefore Classical. Well that's how I see it anyway.
