[quote name='doctor_of_the_bass' post='326354' date='Nov 10 2008, 10:22 PM']Nice Ray Dave!!! I've have now decided that I want at least one brand new Vigier and a Kingbass MkII! Plus I've developed a love of Overwater[/quote] You have to many basses, I think you should give me some. Im scared of trying a new Overwater out, I know I would have to order one!

"Hi mate, I know someone who has a very tidy Lake Placid Blue version for sale at £1400, so that might give you some idea of prices. Gorgeous basses btw, just not keen on the walnut finish! Hope this helps, James " Got this from Jamesemt, Cheers mate, Seems a fair price, remember the rarity of the walnut "natural" without burst finish, I think this will prove to be VERY valuable in years to come. ATB Dave

Heres one I owned for a while. Ibanez Musician 1979-80 I think? It was from the first year of production before they changed the model to the 924. Lovely bass, sold it on ebay about 4 years ago. Dave

[quote name='Hamster' post='325382' date='Nov 9 2008, 05:00 PM']I'm curious about the brushed out image in the mirror - was this some un/intentional reflectoporn (to go with the bassporn) [/quote] LOL, Nothing more incriminating than the wife, she didnt like the way she looked and refused to have her pic on tinternet!

Was made for ONE YEAR ONLY, then remodelled into the Elite Precision. Has Active/Passive switch, Bass & Treble boost and cut in active mode and passive tone in passive mode + vol. Gold fender hardware and maple skunk stripe. It comes with the original fender hard shell case, plush lined.

[quote name='EBS_freak' post='324659' date='Nov 8 2008, 08:23 AM']Don't change a thing! MusicMan got this one so right...[/quote] I love it, i remember when they came out, standing staring at two of them in Sounds Live in Newcastle, a flame one and a quilt one, I got chased for drooling on the window

[quote name='EBS_freak' post='324204' date='Nov 7 2008, 02:05 PM']Beautiful. Was this the one on eBay? PS show use the sides and the back. I always loved that Les Paul-esque transition from the top to the back.[/quote] Yeah this was off Ebay, based in Middlesborough. Lovely bloke.

[quote name='Rich' post='315730' date='Oct 27 2008, 12:51 PM']Sgt. Pepper's is 'unimaginative'? The birth of the concept album, '[i]unimaginative[/i]'? [/quote] Surely most pieces of classical music are based upon concepts? The four seasons, 1812 Overture, in fact most operas are based around a common story or thread running through a series of musical pieces? Don't get me wrong Im not a Beatles / McCartney basher, I just don't rate them and think as i originally stated their popularity is mostly nostalgic, and again this is my personal opinion. He is after all no Geddy Lee LOL!

[quote name='alexclaber' post='315546' date='Oct 27 2008, 08:54 AM']Groove is not simply being funky. McCartney's timing is so solid and his control of note lengths spot on. The same kind of skill shown by the great country bass players. Alex[/quote] Or any sequencer= bad feel????

[quote name='alexclaber' post='315386' date='Oct 26 2008, 09:57 PM']The reassuring thing when I hear other bassists write off McCartney as a significant player is it means I can ignore their opinions on anything else because they clearly don't get 'it'. I thus won't try to explain why he matters but will recommend visiting Sgt Pepper for enlightenment. 'It' is not that hidden - the combination of groove, tone, melodic and harmonic ideas is up there with the very best.[/quote] Dull and un-inventive album always trotted out by Beatles fans as their primary defence, some decent songs granted but groove???? Jameson spins in his grave with greater feel than McCartney ever play, and i do "get it" I just dont think his playing was historically or currently that good. [quote name='silverfoxnik' post='315493' date='Oct 27 2008, 12:55 AM']IMO, Macca's a great bass player because what he plays brings out the best in the song..[/quote] What roots 3rds and 5ths, or 12 bar?
