binky_bass Posted April 17, 2020 Author Posted April 17, 2020 I think it's time to close this thread and find a winner! Ironically, the two posts with the most 'likes' are those of quite uninteresting basses! I have no idea how to create a poll, anyone know? If not, I'll just select my personal favourite and send the winner a very much uninteresting prize! Quote
