Depends when I last re-strung it.

Depends on your level of depravity.

Ewwww… an 81 year old with false teeth and bad breath nibbling your ear while scratching at your marble sack with her talons…

🤣 Horrific, but excellent combination of words!

[AndyTravis]

Like a warm “special hug” with a slap in the face at the end.

 

I call it “Weekend With Will and Jada”.

My tone is like Long Island Iced Tea, superficially sweet and tasty but packing a surprising edge that you may regret in the morning.

My jazz bass with flats and foam at the bridge sounds like Serge Gainsbourg taking Brigitte Bardot’s dress off, on a Scopitone, in 1967.

 

I checked with Brigitte and she reckoned it was pretty close. Then one of her 87 cats widdled on my shoe so I scarpered.

Like a Terminator chasing a box of spanners that have been thrown down a metal drainpipe.

When I play loud songs it like a bomb striking a land mine and triggering an earthquake.

The P bass is a burger (with s&v crisps inside when with rounds, with blue cheese when with flats). 

 

The J bass is a pizza. 

[BreadBin]

F**cking awesome!

A lawnmower cleaning the floor of a screw factory.

[Bassassin]

A pack of apoplectic zombie badgers, howling out their loss and desolation through the subterranean catacombs of Pandaemonium, principal city of Hell, as they pursue their endless, eternal futile quest for the last packet of chocolate digestives in all of creation, aware yet unaware, in some impossibly deep part of their decomposed, undead brains, that it has already been consumed by the Demon Pazuzu, several millennia earlier. But with a touch of chorus.

On a bad day with the fretless, it sounds like a cow that's in the process of dying.

Which is why I sold it to my neighbour.

Two hedgehogs trying to make a third in a bath of warm swarfega.

Like the colour ultramarine refracted through a pentaprism of unfulfilled desires.

My limelight p bass going through Ashdown abm600mkIV and Markbass 410 cab reminds me of, booting an old leather "Casey" football at a brick wall. Very punchy !

[Happy Jack]

Like a cow pissing on a flat rock.

[Ricky 4000]

Like bouncing a satsuma on a cheap plastic racquet out of a cheap 'Tennis Set' from Woolworths .

 

In other words - not plugged in at the moment.

My local rehearsal room has an Ampeg 8x10 bass rig. Playing my Jazz through that is like listening to a tiger purring.

Like you're being mugged by a pirate wielding a moist plank.
