It’s only twenty pages of rather similar puns, do your damned homework before putting up your hand and risking high ridicule in front of the great unwashed 🧐

I broke none of the stated rules. I think this hard stare undeserved. If the rules don’t cover it, it cannot break any of them, since anything else is permitted.

Or are you making it up as you go along in true Monty python style? 😛

Yes

I changed one letter for another. There’s nothing in the rules about not changing all Instances of one letter for another one letter in the alphabet - global replacement so to speak 

mara for mere, is allowed under the rules as  stated

Don't rule out asking them directly also. I've had good experiences with email exchanges with them in the past.

Don’t think they’ll be objective given that they have a b stock item to shift

Anyone got any experience to contribute? 
800£ + is a lot to spend on an experiment

Grammy award winning Esparanza Spalding set a few tongues wagging a while back when she was seen touring with a standard Mexican Fender fretless. I don't claim to know for definite but I'm sure many famous musicians have done something similar at some point. She can have access to any bass she chooses in terms of value.

Leigh Gordon of morcheeba played an early Mex fender. I know because I bought it off him in person 

Shipping options? 
Thats a good question 👍

INKS

I’d get an app for the pitch symbols so you can practice whenever 

I’d start by learning the rhythm symbols first, not least as there are fewer than the pitch symbols

Maybe I’m being dumb but how did he not follow the rules ? He only changed one letter and didn’t add/remove any.  A hard stare is cruel, inhumane and degrading treatment. You’ll be reaching for the soft cushions next 

Photo of case please ? How is it different to a regular squier ? Excuse my ignorance of Matt freeman please

I think Mercy, this isn’t talkbass. We don’t crucify people here (unless they are guitarists anyway, in which case “one cross each, door on the left”)

Um, I failed I think.

 

I had to buy a gig bag and a pedal board (a small pedal board). They were only cheap ones and I sort of needed them for the band im in. 🙂

It's not like I bought a 5 string bass I don't need.

Hmmm - what say the jury? 

Just use your nails a bit more and don’t bother with the slap (unless a guitard is in range of course)

I was experimenting with it whilst playing INXS last night
