    But there's also a lot of people who have come out the other side of financial and family responsibilities. They are in their 50s with the mortgage paid off, the kids if they had any left home etc. Many will have taken "early" retirement or be self-employed and a lot more flexible about taking time out of work to do music.

    A lot of older musicians are still young at heart or more realistically have really ever grown up and just went through a phase at preventing to be a responsible adults. I know I did.

    My current band are all in their 20s except for me...

  2. I'm not knocking anyone - it was more a laugh at myself really. If you have a lot of mates who play, go to music college or live in a city with a lot of people then I reckon you've got a decent chance of putting a band together. And I suppose the internet helps nowadays - the net was only just starting when I was 16 and I lived in rural Dorset.

  3. Here is my 2013 American Standard Fender Jazz Bass.

    Three colour sunburst on a beautiful wood grain body and a very dark rosewood fingerboard.

    It really is a fabulous bass. I'm only looking to sell it because I'm gathering the funds to buy a Fodera.

    My home scales says the bass weighs in at approximately eight and a half pounds.

    Shipping will be free within the UK - I will ship within the EU but that will have to be done at the buyers expense - I'll use interparcel.com.

    If you have any questions, etc. please fire away.
