[quote name='Marvin' timestamp='1441536934' post='2859549'] Most of the open mics in my neck of the woods are predominantly acoustic and there's not a bass in sight. [/quote] Yep definitely the ONLY bass player in the village at my local one.

[quote name='seashell' timestamp='1441354317' post='2858132'] Oh God yes. [/quote] Place i go there is one guitarist who describes himself as "good on a bad day and f&&@ing awesome on a good day"and on his slot he spent nine minutes widdling away on his les Paul copy I don't think the vicar, mums, dads and assorted tired children knew what to make of it

No - seen the same. Reasonable opinion in my view

The church one I go to, basses are unheard of and people started clapping along as soon as I started playing Which was nice Don't think they had ever seen a bass before

Up here in the frozen north 20 is more normal

You might be paying over the odds there, I would think. Yes I gained from 121 lessons for sure

on ebay, "only music", blues tribute model, nice and punchy failing that, I'm selling a pickup out of a classic 50s model?

That's s bit spinal tap

Isn't that called crazing? I thought checking was chipped off bits of lacquer

Maybe I'm thinking of Clarence then

Is it recent ? I though Garry talent was dead?

Mine was a five string , wasn't a problem Just do it -you can always ignore the fifth string until you're ready to deal with it

Yep Tell her well done from me

[quote name='mrtcat' timestamp='1437841692' post='2829484'] My wife has terrible music taste but amazing jubblies and her dad owns a brewery. [/quote] You clearly have some cat DNA ; you have landed on your feet there

Different food, different music, different personalities; "we shouldn't work, but we do, must be the awesome sex" she said.

[quote name='bonzodog' timestamp='1437843044' post='2829497'] My listening to and even playing music drives my wife up the wall. Then again, I think me even breathing drives her up the wall too [/quote] It's going well then ...
