Not long got back. Played a local venue for the second sunday in a row, this time with the Fortunate Sons. Unexpected gorgeous sunny day meant a packed audience and plenty of dancing. Again played best part of 2 hours and 35 songs(!) We were much tighter than our previous gig. I'm getting more comfortable on bvs, so joining in on more songs. The singer caught me out by shoving his mic in my face during Moni Moni... Went for a sunday lunch with my partner beforehand. A pint of coke, pint of Guinness and a bottle of becks zero on top, with two hours of bouncing around and I have a fine stomach ache. Lots of people I know there which was nice. I loaded in from the front. The other guys were less lucky. The route to the back is like a scene from the evil dead...

Burns did the folded over headstock thing, but not that body shape. Looks short scale too, to my eye.

surname first - it's how ewe proper use England

Bit like the sickparrots but more predatory...

Couldn't look further from the bass on that link! This bass doesnt really have a scroll headstock, its more a 'folded over headstock. I'm sure I've seen it before somewhere... A google image search didn't find anything similar either. Would be interested to know what this is if anyone does identify it!

The water filter in my fishtank 🤣

Oohh, this is a good one. I'll add, any alphabetical listing by last name first, first name last. Mark

Looks like schaller tuners and bridge with possible dimarzio pickups. Good components, also Looks like a set neck. Depending on price, grab it and work it out later!

People listing music as "Surname, Firstname" or "..., The". eg. "Hendrix, Jimi" or "Who, The".

Has anyone taken this course and if so how was it? I'll be honest that my theory etc with regards to our beloved instrument isn't great and starts and ends at knowing the notes all over the fretboard. The rest is knowing cover songs so I've been looking at taking an online course aswell as jamming to songs daily and the one that keeps coming up is the bassbuzz course. The one thing that gets me is it seems very expensive for what it is but if it works and improves my knowledge then I'll pay it Does anyone here have any experience good or bad with this course?

I'm considering one of these but play 5s exclusively. Do you have a 5 string at all that you've plugged into it?

I'd suggest trying the foam under the strings close to the bridge wheeze. It works well for me

I agree 100% with @Schnozzalee’s statement!

Id snap that up and find out later. The body has a mastumoku look.
