  1. Lozz bought a Hipshot DeTuner from me which I'd bought for a project which didn't happen. Glad that it ended up somewhere where it's going to get used. I lent him a Squier PJ at the same time - I feel jazzes are limited - Lozz feels the same about Precisions so the progression into PJs seemed logical to me - gives him the opportunity to test the water before diving in. Usual setting the world to rights and chatting about the forum. We even discussed putting on another local Bash once the restrictions are relaxed.... I don't need to tell you what an asset he is to this forum - we'll inevitably do business again at some point....you could too.
  2. We all owe him a great debt....
  3. Kinky Boots - McNee and Blackman...30 seconds too late. Crocodile shoes - Jimmy Nail
  4. Superfreak - Rick James
  5. I wasn't being quarrelsome - just that there are so many great/ inspirational bassists that the many pointless lists which are churned out periodically are meaningless. That's why I suggested picking genre and looking at players who made a name for themselves in those genre.... Thankfully, bassists are now getting recognition for their contributions where they didn't years ago...
  6. Noel Redding didn't get the recognition he deserved...
  7. Are you sure??? I suggest that if you put 5 bassists in a room you'd get at least 6 opinions. "Who is the best bassist" often leads to near fisticuffs - what I like doesn't translate to what you, or anybody else, likes. "My dog doesn't like slap" - though whimsical - shows how we are divided on taste and style. You may have to pick a genre each week and consider the bassists who made significant impact in that genre...
  8. Only you - Yazoo
  9. We wouldn't do that. However, if you consider "doing the right thing" - a self sacrifice - can you leave me your gear?
  10. Catch me if you can - The Cranberries
  11. Totally agree. The only thing better than the online relationships is meeting other members in person.
  12. Sisters are doing it for themselves - Areetha and Annie Lennox
  13. It's my house - Diana Ross
  14. Looks well made with quality woods. Possibly worth a look https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Handmade-custom-5-string-bass-guitar-26-frets/164766831683?hash=item265cde5443:g:1HQAAOSw6zlgU75S Seller regularly has quality items for sale on eBay, including a neck through NS94.
  15. Stay - Jackson Browne It's NOT an ad for suntan lotion!!!
  16. Born too late - The Ponytails
  17. Another ACG masterpiece...can anybody remember one that wasn't?
  18. I like the middle one - enough of a slant to be different without scaring the trads.
  19. RIP
  20. Wheels on Fire - Julie Driscoll and Ab Fab
  21. Don't turn around - Aswad
  22. He might if it was played on one of these
  23. There are 149 out there....see if somebody will part with theirs. Afterthought: we have a dog called "Gibson" in the pack - his human is a guitarist - I wonder if he has thought of that...
