Woodinblack started following First 12-string bass? A bit of British bass history... and What is Pau Ferro like to play?

Agreed - I didnt' think it was a great looking wood for that, but certainly not something I thought about other than the first glance. I mean I prefer ebony because its black, then wenge as it has nice markings.

First 12-string bass? A bit of British bass history...

So the string layout on the top photo is what you would expect, but then in the 2nd and 3rd, the top sets of strings are reversed (the 4th one you can't really see). -

First 12-string bass? A bit of British bass history...

These just appeared on one of the Burns Guitars Facebook pages along with the following explanation: Octave down 12 string which Hank saw when visiting the Burns factory. He took it with him and still has it. I believe it was converted to standard 12 string tuning. So this would have been Hanks first Burns. -

Many moons ago I ordered a brand new five string Mexican Fender Jazz which had a Pao Ferro fingerboard. They're okay, sound good and make the percussive frequencies warmer. The only downside that to my fingertips, the wood tended to feel almost 'furry'.

Congratulations. It's a good way for Will to sell off slow selling basses - if there are enough entrants, the price of the bass is at least covered. Matt at High Peak Autos (You Tube Channel) previously had a side business that featured cars as prizes. -
Love this. Brian "goofing around" during the Pet Sounds sessions. Didn't even make the original album. I am a sucker for trombones farting out though 😄

Young blues hopeful (well not so young now!) Connor Selby and band in New Milton. Featuring @SonnyBass95 on a Lakland Skyline 44-51 via EBS valve head - most tasteful! Catch this lot if you can.

This is as hard-hitting as Lucinda’s songs, and to be frank it’s a wee bit too honest. But that makes it compelling reading, so if you like her music it’s a solid investment. If you don’t know who she is, consult YouTube immediately… Hardback, very good condition. RRP £20, yours for £13 posted. Now just £11.

From what I've been reading recently, there have been a few other members who have added them into their orders from thomann so I'm sure we'll find out before long. Who knows, they could become the Sue Ryder of bass strings 😄
