It’s Ella’s first bass! ”dad I want a bass, I want a yamaha, I have £120” Fun fact - I joined Basschat the day she was born. A great first bass. Sure beats the likes of Kay we all seemed to start with. 🙂👍 Edited January 23, 2022 by Maude 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gapiro Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 Also I should say I’m still in though I have just had to spend money buying a new soldering iron so I can fix my circuitry on the 55-02 I have. (As I used to work in an electronics company i would use work equipment for it ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That orange flame body and pale neck/headstock are too distinctive. @gapiro really wants a cracked tort pick guard and a mollases-coloured fretboard. He just hasn't realised it yet.

LukeFRC Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 @gapiro - what colour is your 55-02? surely that's almost the same thing in a different colour? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neepheid Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 Still in! They have made it easy though, I do miss the dedicated bass department downstairs in Glasgow. Basses squeezed into the corner/end wall again, surrounded on three sides by skinny stringed miniature things shaped a little like basses. Ho hum and bah humbug. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What did they do with downstairs then ? BTW I'm definitely out now. I reasoned that since I ordered the Cali76 CB before new year it didn't count. However, One Fractal Audio sale later and crashed and burned.....again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
