  1. This is not an elf playing bass, it's a bass playing elf. Language is such fun.
  2. Exactly how I feel about my 'keeper', bought new in '76
  3. You are sir, a philosopher and write words of wisdom. 👍
  4. Indeed not - that's what the wife's for. 🫢
  5. Perfectly fair comment. I am overly nostalgic for the days when I merely aspired to be a nobody. Now I am one, it's all downhill. Where did I put my therapist's number ... ...
  6. Never tried an RB IV, but if I could have a go for about five years, I'm sure I'd have an opinion ready for feedback. 😁
  7. Now that SRV looks ace.
  8. Waddo, don't start me on my car! Oh no! I've come over all funny again. Is there a doctor in the house? 🫣
  9. Poop Brown just sold it to me! 💩
  10. I also thought Mr Holroyd to be a god of bass. (He also played an Alembic as I recall - rare to see those back in the day). I couldn't afford the Gibson - never mind the Alembic - so I got Jack Golder of Shergold to make me this one. I did have the Holroyd Hair though!
  11. There's an Overwater 7 on the for sale section which is an exceptional bass. Worth a look?
  12. Yes, unfortunate but true on both counts. I think they were around £3000-ish when new and are now only out there in limited numbers. Good luck with the search.
  13. "Naked! The smell of the case!" Jumping out of a birthday cake? look away Vicar!
  14. Some excellent basses being mentioned. I wonder how many are still around, 'un-played', under a bed or in an attic (gasp!) oh how we suffer for/from our art. Next stop is a garret in Paris. 🫤
  15. Hammond organ is a tremendous instrument to play. Drop that into a blues band and it's instant kudos.
  16. They are very smart, with a slightly different sound to my ear at least. A bit deeper in tone.
  17. 'In the eye of the beholder and all such like. 😉
  18. Now you're back to my earlier thread of the one that got away. Lovely bass: can understand the regret.
  19. These two: SRV5 30th and piezo SRV. The third is an impostor.
  20. Classy if you ask me. Never give up the search my friend. It's out there somewhere.
  21. Now a Roscoe Beck V is a lovely thing. Been chasing one in CAR for ages. " Moving forward" sounds a good, healthy attitude though.👍
  22. Maybe should have listed 'hair' as the one that got away. 🤔
