Me too ... I don't know exactly why, but it's just a lovely thing to look at.

As we drove home from Leighton Buzzard at 1am after last night's gig, I was saying to Silvie how much I enjoy the drive home in the wee small hours ... a reminder of how driving in London used to be.

Pah! No commitment ...

His autobiography is well worth the read. He had an amazing life, and seems to have been a pretty amazing guy.

Yup, me too. I sold it because it looked cool but sounded crap. Then I bought this black one and I sourced a Dark Star pickup. Now it looks cool and sounds absolutely righteous.

I've Been Playing Bass For 50 Years, So What?
Happy Jack replied to Bluewine's topic in General Discussion
On 14th August 1965 I was an 8-year-old wanting to be taken to the public swimming pool. I had no clue what a bass guitar was. -
It's just such an outrageous thing to look at. The blank, white wall above my TV is a rotating art installation. Up until now the rotation has been: Now they have a new friend!

That reminds me of the days when you could go to a disco and see people playing air keyboards ...

Very old-school thumb work.

Well it's hardly "current", is it?

Incidentally, the eagle-eyed amongst you will notice that my bass has a mis-matched body and neck ... the scratchplate is sparkly red and the headstock is sparkly orange.

Basschat of course!

Incredibly, Mick, it's telescopic! The other examples show it with the pin slid into the body.

I'm in NW London and I'm always struck by how many bands are looking for bass players in SE London ...
-
Why is Jonathan Creek reviewing a Markbass stack? Is it magic?
-
Now Roger, I thought I told you about this.

For those who complain about 'modern' music
Happy Jack replied to Sibob's topic in General Discussion
What none of you seem to understand is that those are valve memories ... -
So when is this much-anticipated audition actually happening?
-
I'm well impressed with the idea of using a marquee as a brothel. [Insert 'loitering within tent' joke here.]

Some Fellas Don't Know When They Are Well Off.
Happy Jack replied to Ashborygirl's topic in eBay - Weird and Wonderful
Never heard of Suhr before, and a quick Google suggests that their range sits around the £2k - £2.5k mark new, so looking for over £3k for a pre-owned example with a pathetic sob-story is pretty optimistic. -
Yup, £28 for a really good set-up is hardly a rip-off.

Whereabouts inside the cajon would you attach that?
