TRB1004J - they are supposed to be about 800 new but you can often pick them up in good condition preloved for about 3-400 (i got mine on fleabay 2 years ago for 380 absolute mint and unused) if you find an early series japanese TRB-4 like that gorgeous blue one which was sold recently on here please let me know ASAP if you like 'burp-tone' TRB is the way to go

we didnt have a school bass but i do recall the school cello - when i did some bass stuff at school it was with my own black shaftesbury (single-cutaway) LP

too many apps was listening to the wireless yesterday and they were running a 'news feature' (for news feature read cheap cronie advertising for chums of BBC) on radio 2 drivetime last night where you could order your drinks on way to pub to save waiting at the bar

[quote name='Dingus' timestamp='1378514064' post='2201460'] Touching on what folks like Molan had to say earlier , I personally have always gravitated towards the highest quality basses , even when I was a kid looking at pictures in magazines ( that's all we had for bass porn in the days before the internet ) with no means to buy them . However , now that I have a bit more money, I have realised that most of those basses are completely superfluous to my real - world practical needs . I honestly think that you get most bang for your buck at around the just-over-a -thousand-pounds mark . An American Standard Fender Jazz will do everything that a U.S - made Lakland Joe Osborn or passive Celinder Jazz will , and it's not so expensive or difficult to replace that you need to worry unduly about looking after it . The way to get the most out of any bass is to play it and use it , and there is an inertia for most people that makes them handle expensive custom basses with kid gloves compared to more generic instruments . I am no fan of his playing , but it's great to see Victor Wooten playing his Foderas with scant regard for wear and tear , and Stanley Clarke spanks his Alembics with an equally gay abandon . That's the way to do it , in my opinion . That is what [i]really [/i]constitutes a good investment in a bass - to play it and love it . Overall , once you actually get your hands on them and play them . there is far less difference than you might think in the final results between a very good mass- production instrument ( i.e U.S.A Fender , EBMM, Lakland Skyline , ect ) and most very expensive boutique basses . There are , of course, plenty of notable exceptions , but I can't help but notice that many ( maybe even most ) great players in various eras who we all admire were capable of getting amazing results on fairly standard equipment .

[quote name='MiltyG565' timestamp='1382912238' post='2258038'] What could possible go wrong? [/quote] You turn up at the first rehearsal and then they come clean and tell you it's actually a Suzi Quattro Tribute Band
