I had to look this one up. It seems that the lady on the cover of that particular edition is missing an upper body. Just a head floating above some legs. Maybe she's wearinga top the same colour as the background but that seems unlikely. I won't post the image here, I'm not sure of the rules around images of attractive women's behinds.

When you say 'look this one up' you really mean you had to flick through your laminated stack of vintage 'gentleman' magazines to find this particular edition... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't enjoy gentleman's art pamphlets from before I was born. Those ladies, lovely as they were back then are in their late 60's now and probably someone's sweet old grandmother. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leschirons Posted April 13, 2022 Share Posted April 13, 2022 My sound is akin to having spent £1600 more than I needed to as it's the same sound as the one that was £1600 less. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vin Venal Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 Both of the basses I'm using at the moment - a player series p-bass, and a vintage modified jaguar - sound, depending on where I have the tone knob, like either a woolly mammoth, or a woolly mammoth covered in spikes. There's a marked difference in the size of the mammoth, cuz the Squier is in D-Standard tuning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe she's wearinga top the same colour as the background but that seems unlikely. Thanks to Abebooks, I can clarify that the model on the cover is wearing a black blouse and that she is standing with one foot on the keyboard of a grand piano. So, veering towards the musical but admissible because it isn't expressed in words. Her heaving chest is in no way visible but -- pace Steve -- we can safely assume that she has a chest. This is a good metaphor for a bass sound. That issue of Playboy apparently had an article by Alex Haley about his problems with Roots.
