Smelly bass?

[sprocketflup]

In haiku - 

 

Oh fishy trumpet,

Sadly you're fit for the bin,

My mates are tossers.

The headline:

 

Rot Fish-Stench's Trumpet-Friend Caught In A Car-Boot Incident

 

 

And as haiku:

 

Rotten fish trumpet

Trumpet odour in a car

No fun fishy joke

Trumpets and fish don't mix

We heard from a blower called Rick

His mates for a jape

Thought it would be great

Now Rick calls his old mates pricks

I had this with a MM Sterling.  The bass and case were really smelly.  I completely took the bass to bits and washed everything - except the electrics, obvs, before someone mentions it  - in warm soapy water, then polished the body, neck and hardware.  The case got a liberal helping of 'Shake n Vac'.

There once was a guy called Paul 

He didn't like the smell of his bass at all

He took it pieces and washed of the faeces

and now he’s telling us all

 

Damn I re used ‘all’

It’s fairly hot here today, would this be a good time to leave my 71 Bass case outside to air?

It's funny how basses get a specific smell.

I have had a few nitro finished basses (excellent instruments and naming no names) that gave off the aroma of old socks. They were very funky basses though, mind...

Not so much 'heat', but UV and a good breeze seems to shift the stench.
