Merton Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 31 minutes ago, Barking Spiders said: More like guess the bassist by the widely used stock photo or their clothes. I got 14. If just the pics of the bass were included and the bodies had been brushed out I'd have got Bootsy and that's about it. Yep. I'd have got a few but not all of them for sure.

Just went through it again and if it it had just been photos of the basses I'd have only got 5 definitely. I might have got another 7 by process of elimination for the multiple choice options, but what I could see of the players certainly helped.

Cat Burrito Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 I thought all 15 basses were actually owned by one Bassschat member with chronic GAS. That wasn't listed as an option though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adamg67 Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 If it was really only the bass I would have struggled, you could see thundercat's hair and I recognised Steve Harris's legs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it was one of the five I could have identified by just the bass, the other 4 being: Bootsy, John Entwistle, Lemmy and Victor Wooten.

I just recognised him by the trousers. Some people you need a clue. I recognised Jamerson by the finger. Probably Jacos bass is quite distinctive Seems they missed a few tricks though as some of the other options they give you you could actually recognise by the bass, such as Les Claypool, Chris Squire, Nikki Sixx, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only got it from the context of the photo and the multiple choice options. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was the tattoo on his hand that gave it away for me, many hours watching with my kids so many years ago!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reggaebass Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 I got 8/15 , but I guessed 2 of them right 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 I thought the claret and blue stripes on Steve Harris' bass were a giveaway. As is of course the Hammers badge, when you can see it. Ah well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Works fine on my ancient iPhone. Worked fine on my v old iPhone too - i got 12/15 - got the double bassist wrong and a couple of others (black single pick up plus one other which I can't remember)!

peteb Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 I got 14/15 - surprised at how many I actually knew rather than guessed. Funnily enough, the one I didn't get was Flea as I don't think that it was a Stingray in the picture (or was it one without a scratchplate) and I didn't think that he had enough tattoos...!

BigRedX Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 Just tried the guitarist one. I got 9/15. Only 4 would have been obvious to me from just the guitar. The other 5 were helped by the rest of the photo and the choices available. Of the 6 I didn't get, 2 were unlucky guesses and 4 were ones I didn't know at all.
