  1. I’m lucky that I don’t have a dream bass lack of spare cash and a fair idea of my talent level leaves me having set myself a ceiling of £600. It’s perfectly possible to find something acceptably good in this range (new or used) that suits my pocket and is capable of better than my own ability levels allow me to extract note @Sarah5string I tried an Ibanez that was so beautifully made that i thought it must sound equally good, but it did not; bubble burst
  2. I’m happy with extra buckle rash on my basses
  3. I’d peg you as younger happy birthday 🎂
  4. Is the neck pickup hidden? edit - get it now after a re-read but glwts
  5. I ignored Motown, though I didn’t hate it nowadays I totally realise how awesome it and stax were
  6. Note also that some others will accommodate you a little, and so you need not be perfect - my timing is imperfect and I tend to push the beat a little I had a bass teacher and he’d play guitar along. We did “stand by me”; I thought he was stretching his own timing to fit me (the learner) and became progressively more self-conscious and eventually stalled. He asked why I’d stopped when I was actually doing well

  8. An invisibility? You don’t necessarily need more than one

  12. Gross - I grew up on a farm and even I think that’s gross - it’s walking on his counters, with its paws covered with drool and the lovely aftertaste of butt. I have Labradors that enjoy eating anything and everything but they are still less gross than a cat by a country mile
  13. You mean …”Oh look at my little baby…yes, the one with the constant fur-drop problem, razor sharp ciaws, and furniture destruction habit” well he doesn’t mean it really … and then there’s the whole ‘slaughtering that family of voles thing’ well they probably goaded him into it… I mean he wouldn’t hurt a fly with those viciously sharp teeth and foul breath problem” he’s so cute …
  14. Ok - I apologise 😛 yes, you did read that, I read it too, posted I believe by the same gentleman
  15. Totally get that …. Pond Scum, with added fur
  16. Now that’s funny. Wish our postal delivery was funny, not some very pleasant, red haired and attractive female kind
  17. Jerry talks about this period in “way on down”, his autobiography
  18. @jerryscheff was one of those players @MHMSWC#03 - he played for elvis
  19. UNLESS he told them he wanted to go to the guard tower in that prison camp to check his eyesight ? Hmm - yeah that sounds good… who would not go for that as an explanation
