My vote is for Brett Whatsisname from 90,s Britpoppers Suede. Now there is a bloke who loves himself! [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t2LFuElTufo"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t2LFuElTufo[/url]

he would probably get more bids if he offered to post it. I got a few good deals from sellers who wouldnt post.

Another vote for the band you either hate or love, The Beatles and Penny Lane. A great catchy pop song from Lord Macca, with some great bass playing too. [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PEyJ2EEvRBU"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PEyJ2EEvRBU[/url]

[quote name='bluejay' timestamp='1333311123' post='1599957'] The 70s original of the rather horrid cover version by Destiny's Child. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bvZVzYipAZw[/media] I'm currently finding the bassline to it for a project. [/quote] Did you know that is a Bee Gees song? from Saturday night fever I think.

Ooh! Pointy!!

I just find impossible to play it like that! even the strings are upside down! Why not just get a left hander?

[quote name='flyfisher' timestamp='1333147073' post='1598256'] What a travesty. They should have had the decency to change their name when they went all west coast AOR. Peter Green would be turning in his grave if he hadn't come back from the dead. [/quote] But Peter Green had Jeremy Spencer and Danny Kirwan, the thread says single guitarist and L B does it all by himself.

Lindsey Buckingham - Fleetwood Mac [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qNM6IuA87eM"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qNM6IuA87eM[/url]

The Doves, Cedar Room. How to sing and play the bass upside down. [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G1FiRjislrU"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G1FiRjislrU[/url]

Ernie Ball super slinkys. Was using rotosound for years, but compared to the slinkys, they were like rubbing your fingertips on a cheese grater. Its nice to have such a choice these days

While its a lovely warm spring day, I thought you might like to see what was a 1996 Korea Squier P Bass. It has been fitted with a tort pick guard, a fake F****er logo, Seymour Duncan SPB 1 vintage pickups, a chrome bridge and pickup cover. Why I hear you say? Because I wanted a replica of a late 60,s P Bass for my 60,s covers band. Incedently, I tried to get a 1969 yob logo which i,m quiet pleased with.

I love that pick on flats tone on the little bass solo on The Beatles 'Everybodys Got Something To Hide' Macca on a Fender Jazz, I read somewhere.

Maybe he thinks it is? If he bought in in good faith after being told it was? Some People don't know a Chinese bass, from a Chinese takeaway!

Happens all the time! I have lost count of the bands I put together, only to find that two or more members were doing stuff behing my back, causing the band to crumble!!

[quote name='shizznit' timestamp='1332164132' post='1584071'] Relic - They look cool, but try explaining to a non-musician why you have paid over £2k for something that looks like it was found in a skip. [/quote] Brilliant!

Oh yes, JJ Burnel definately influenced me!

Mersea eh? I used to go there years ago on my scooter for the mod weekends!

Also, I'm not a lover of those luminous bright coloured strings, WTF is that all about!

I dont like Warwicks, that shape does nothing for me! A Fender Precision however....

Trying hard to hear the bass part through my tinny laptop speakers. The chorus chords are E/D but the bass I think is playing an open E and something other than a D as I can hear some tension between the guitar and bass. Can someone have a listen to this and enlighten me?
