ID the bass

great fun to play....and the kids will know it too but what is the bass....looks like a 70's Fender head & pickguard with a sort of sexy ARIA SB-1000 dual striped body

Fender Musicmaster... is it not?

<edit>

I should add 'wtf do I know as it certainly doesn't have a W on the headstock'!

Yup, Fender Musicmaster with a stripped-down body showing not good matching bits of wood. There's also some obvious sampling of vocals from an old Val Doonican classic.

not so tough afterall...some real Fender anoraks here ....if it had been a Yamaha.....

I think that you are wrong this time Horrid,the vocal sample was Roger Whittaker.

Burl Ives, surely!

No, sorry chaps, it's definitely Val Doonican. The only other one it could have been was Perry Como but, if you set your audio to 'ultra-sensitive' you'll notice the scraping of fibres from a cable-knit cardigan (90% Acrylic, 10% Polyamide).
