WITHOUT PICS THIS THREAD IS A WASTE OF MY TIM.

It's for sale on basschat [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/235597-1980-aria-pro-ii-tsb-550-through-neck-32-medium-scale/page__pid__2435914#entry2435914"]http://basschat.co.uk/topic/235597-1980-aria-pro-ii-tsb-550-through-neck-32-medium-scale/page__pid__2435914#entry2435914[/url]

[quote name='steve-bbb' timestamp='1398669211' post='2436247'] and how about one of our basschat favourites, snarky puppy? - i would put my money on the keyboard players or the drummer or some of the brass section [/quote] They are all monster musicians in Snarky Puppy! Have you heard (keys player) Corey Henry's other work? Outstanding! [url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9l0xppLcgl4"]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9l0xppLcgl4[/url]

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1398329445' post='2432858'] Any excuse to post a Robbie Shakespeare bass line! [/quote] Not bad for a 450 year old man.

I thought you were talking about the Grace Jones song

[quote name='Bassassin' timestamp='1398090153' post='2430292'] Interesting, you hardly ever see these, and the licensed Hondo (Korean, likely) versions are way more common than the US originals. Not a through-neck, though, these are actually bolt-on with a very long heel/tenon section that (as far as I remember) the pickups are mounted onto. I have growing GAS for a 2xP bass (probably the only pup configuration I've never owned) and this isn't helping! If I was in bass-buying mode I'd be all over this, a properly rare & unusual vintage bass for what I think is a highly reasonable price, considering how uncommon they are. Jon. [/quote] I have a 2xp Thunder II with xlr input that I could be tempted to trade for one of your goodies

Westone Superheadless for sale - the BIN is very reasonable was tempted to go for it until I read my old post about not getting with them http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Westone-Super-Headless-Bass-Guitar-/251504032736?ssPageName=ADME:B:SS:GB:3160

The shadows of the headstock on the wall are making my eyes go funny.

Have you received it yet?

[quote name='Lord Sausage' timestamp='1396972214' post='2419299'] I may be wrong as it's been a long time, 17 yrs, but I'm sure i played America from West side story and it was written bar of 6/8 bar of 3/4. Not some crazy time. [/quote] Correct - it is in an alternating meter.

[quote name='woodster' timestamp='1396995110' post='2419681'] I'll see them at The Southport Weekender in May. I'm there with Archie Bell & The Drells. [/quote] You're PLAYING with Archie Drell? Wow! Tighten up is such a nice track to play!

I know you probably won't like this but... if I had the money I'd buy this and chuck in the Alembic pickups that are for sale on this very forum.

[quote name='Mr Lizard' timestamp='1393428622' post='2380187'] Love em. All of their albums are great. Dr Boondigga and the Big BW being my favourite. Great live too (but no bass player ) [/quote] Whaaaaaaaaa? I'm gonna email them now - maybe no-one thought to ask before! Never had the pleasure of seeing them live but love their albums.

Voted - great set of entries, my ears thank you all!

Daion Power XX. I will be mega jealous if it is.
