I'm trying to justify a five string in a punk band.  Tuned down to A, to boot.

 

Just put the bass down.  Thought it looked splendid.

 

 

 

No need to justify the extra string when a bass looks that badass.

Forgive me saying, but the carpet doesn't look sticky  (or dirty) enough for a punk band, regardless of the number of strings

It's spent too long in a case.  Intermittent issue resolved, it sounds thunderous through my gear.  Thunderous...

It's a poinsettia!  There's a story online of two Americans who tried smoking the dried leaves and ended up with vomiting, headaches and palpitations.

Had a quick recording session last week and the CV Mustang was on the couch. I apologize in advance for the electric sitar and the archtop!

 

I keep thinking I should bin the tort and get white pearloid on there, although that’s possibly my meds working overtime 😂

That Epiphone is lovely.

Thank you, I got it second hand and it’s really nice to play. I’d still like to get a P-90 fitted because the undersaddle piezo is a bit shrill. But to play acoustically it’s great, can recommend them 👍

Yeah, sold all my Gibsons a few years back - had my own mini financial crisis - I moved house.

That's a more pleasant reason

 

Still keeping it kinda Gangsta with the Epiphones, I guess.

You need more basses or a smaller settee.

They don't fit anymore.

Bit of an update…the P went and I got a Yamaha BEX4c to replace…

[MM Stingray 62]

That fretless jazz looks really nice Andy 👍

Point of order. That's a bass leaning against the settee.

 

Incidentally,  what does one do if one has a sofa*?

 

 

 

 

 

*Settee is non-u. I growed up with a settee, my partner has a new sofa...
