ead Posted March 11, 2023 Share Posted March 11, 2023 (edited) Folks, some sad news today. I visited our very own @ash this afternoon for our annual P bass exchange and to my horror it would appear that ash is down to his last 3 P basses. This is very worrying indeed and I have offered a much emotional support as I can. In order not to aggravate ash's condition could I ask for a short moratorium on posting any pics of P basses or indeed any listing of P basses for sale. It's a difficult time for ash and I'm sure the BC community will support. Thank you. Edited March 12, 2023 by ead 2 15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Downunderwonder Posted March 12, 2023 Share Posted March 12, 2023 Surely you should be encouraging those with a surfeit of luscious P basses to list one for your temporarily vaguely embarrassed mate to potentially acquire? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGreek Posted March 12, 2023 Share Posted March 12, 2023 People, People..... There is life after P...let us offer our friend support in his time of need.. Just not a try of any of your P basses (I don't own one) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drTStingray Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 I can guarantee there’s life after P basses - although I’ve played several owned by other people I haven’t owned one in nearly 50 yrs of playing. Stingrays, however are a different matter - over a significant period of time I haven’t been able to stop playing (or occasionally buying) them. I’m told there is a support group for basses which have plastic inflicted on their strings 😂😂 - maybe they can help with P bass withdrawal symptoms as well…….. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grahambythesea Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 I can see what Ash’s problem is, he’s become colour blind. No sunburst, Olympic white, butterscotch, L.P. Blue or Fiesta Red, his world is just blackness. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bassfinger Posted March 14, 2023 Share Posted March 14, 2023 I'm down to 2 P basses. It doesn't matter. So what if I do Jazz now and again? I can control it. I can give up any time I want. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're missing a trick there, @Bassfinger I use P for my regular hit (See right, below) but then some weekends I combine P and J for that little bit of extra (See left, below) 😁👍 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ezbass Posted March 14, 2023 Share Posted March 14, 2023 I’ve been P bassless for quite some time and now have an itch that needs scratching. I thought that having Mustangs was the way, but it turns out that they are a gateway drug. Played a Player series P at GG the other day, it was very good indeed 😬. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
