  1. I had never played a bass before my first gig. I learned all my bass lines on a Fender Acoustic guitar. I had one hour before the gig to master a '62  Precision that a mate lent me. It didn't go too well.  I was 15 at the time. My own first bass was a Jedson short scale Telecaster copy. It went in the bin when I got my '72 Rickenbacker fretless at the age of 17.

  2. After 42 years,  I finally had a reunion with my first band a couple of weeks ago in a studio in Glasgow. The drummer had both knees replaced,  the guitarist with the black Les Paul has Parkinsons and I'm waiting for knee replacements. Didn't work out to bad. A wee bit of  Wishbone  Ash. I only managed to play for an hour and a half due to RA. The session lasted for 6 hours with my mate taking over bass duties.

    I just replaced my JG 4003 with a JG 4003S and prefer the body shape, neck and weight. Has some beautiful figuring on the fingerboard wood too. Finally happy!

    Nice one Sam, great colour 👍, how are you getting on with it 

    It's great  Tony. Nice and light,  the neck is a dream to play.  I'm very happy with it.
