  1. How do you get on with "Babylon's burning" by The Ruts? Wicked bassline but a killer at speed. After all these years and I still haven't got it - maybe I should try it with a pick.
  2. With three sleeps to go, what's in the "Basses for sale" thread that you'd like Santa to bring you? Here's mine:
  3. HaHaHa.... Feel sorry for those who are Musicman fans and trying NOT to buy another one....it's a cracker!! Bet you're all hoping that Santa's bringing you this 💥
  4. Big bird - The Jam (is the version I know)
  5. I've been looking for a Westone Thunder 11 or 111 with a broken headstock for just this reason.
  6. The camera never lies
  7. There are 2 Washburn Status basses currently available on Gumtree. 

    Expect to pay around £700

      FYI, I see them not; presumably they've gone.

      I had one new in the 80s; it wasn't a bad intermediate bass, but I replaced it with a real Status Graphite which was just at another level.

      £700 seems a lot for one of those; presumably the shape adds a few hundred to the perceived value.

  8. What is the existing pickup and do you have the one which was removed? Why was it removed?
  9. Needles and Pins - The Searchers
  10. Remember you're a womble - The Wombles
  11. Welcome to my nightmare - Alice Cooper
  12. First time I've seen one...we live and learn.
  13. Can't remember when I last bought a bass from a shop. I'm a terrible impulse buyer so it's "see it, want it, buy it.." Not recommended technique...means that you go through a lot of instruments.
  14. Ruby Tuesday - you already know
  15. Four wood - Beyonce (golfing connection)😉
  16. Now owned by BCer, Nick Smith, Martin Kemp's white Ibanez Musician.
  17. I believe @cetera has one. Would love one...
  18. I have a similar instrument, I don't think that the strings have stopped stretching yet. Love the tone but requires constant retuning.
  19. Row, Row, Row your boat - trad.
  20. Bank Robber - The Clash (as well)
  21. Just heard The Everly Brothers on an advert. When I was pre-pubertic I really liked them - very easy on the ear. Now...not so much. You??
  22. Accept the seller's remorse and spend the money on another bass.
  23. "Relocate"....
