  1. Kind of late to the party to poop it, but Scott didn't get his P bass until '84. This album was '83 when he was still using the active Carvin. Pooper out...

  12. It's just occurred to me that nearly all basses that have bolt-on necks don't actually possess any bolts.
  13. The Shoes of the Fisherman's Wife Are Some Jiveass Slippers - Mingus
  14. The only festival I'm going to is Bluedot with my family. The lineup is diverse and multinational. Doesn't seem to be affected at all...

  24. I bought my '65 P around Easter time this year and it was a decision based on scientific facts (kinda), the bass is oozing mojo and it addressed a long term longing of the heart... The P sound is the sound that's always been calling out to me, and my two fave P players I've long admired are Scott Thunes and Paz Lenchantin (I may have banged on about these two before...apologies if I'm repeating myself. Highly likely! ☺) both of whom play '65 Precisions which they've nearly worn to death. Always wanted one simply because of this fact. No way could I ever afford one though. A pipe dream. I'll keep this bit short... Had a terrible last 12 months. Very sad and unforseen family circumstance occurred. I found myself looking into a brief yet present window of opportunity. I saw the bass I always wanted online. Bought it for more than I ever thought I'd spend on a bass, yet it was also for the least amount I had seen one going for in the modern day. I made the most out of a crappy situation. The bass is everything I hoped it to be and in 20 or 30 years (if I'm lucky) when I pop it, my kids can sell it and go halves. It should be worth much more by then and hopefully that will cover everything I've spent on my bass geekery over the years and then some! (That was the science bit 😄) Made sense to me and I convinced myself at the time...
