    Talking of Big Special...

    Now that's the best news I've heard since I got the fretless semi-hollow bass. I am a very happy man!

    Blimey, I'd forgotten I'd given him the wood he made that bass from. Does that mean it's mine..? 🤣🤣🤣

    Just sayin' ...why not summon the man himself, paging @Jabba_the_gut.

    Empires and Dance - Simple Minds All (well, most) of the songs are built around Derek Forbes' brilliant driving bass lines, it's my second favourite album of all time but that disheveled bar steward with the moist towelettes, @upside downer, beat me to it. If I were wearing a cravat and monocle and perhaps sporting a cane it would be Gentlemen Take Polaroids - Japan

    Just sold a Sire acoustic bass to Dave, excellent comms, quick, painless transaction, a gentleman and a scholar, Obviously this earns him the barely sought-after Frank Blank Seal of Approval...

    We’ve met half way before, happy to do it again!

    No idea Sir, beyond my technical knowledge, as are most things.

    SOLD A Sire GB5 Bass 4 (why on earth call a 4 string bass a GB5?) purchased on the 16th Oct 2025. It's been played twice at home rehearsals. This bass is pristine and unmarked. The reason I'm selling it is, unfortunately, the old long scale bass aches are back so I am returning to my short scale basses. Bass is located in Southend, happy to meet somewhere to hand over or drive to you (I like driving, try me). The bass went straight to Guitar Technical Services for a Pro Set-Up as soon as I bought it. The bass does not come with a case but I expect I'll find something to put it in to get it to you. Happy to answer any questions or provide more pics, just message me. No trades thanks.

    It's an absolute doozie and I'm beyond gutted to let it go. Thing is, nothing is worse than a bass idling in the rack when it could be being played. It sounds perfect with our music too, but all roads inevitably lead old men to short scales...

    *** ON HOLD *** I purchased this Fender Precision Thinline PBAC from BC stalwart @Happy Jack on the 18th July last year. It's a beautiful thing, sounds amazing, but, unfortunately, the old long scale bass aches are back so I am returning to my short scale basses. It breaks my heart to let this go as I'd been waiting for one to come up for years, but, as I said, I just can't handle long scales anymore, I just need to finally give them up altogether. It is a glorious bass, its character and charm enhanced by a selection of (purely cosmetic) dings and marks wholly commensurate with its age. It's been played about four times at home rehearsals since I bought it. Please bear in mind that these are unusual basses that usually sell for between £1100-£1500 second hand. Bass is located in Southend, happy to meet somewhere to hand over or drive to you (I like driving, try me). The bass went straight to Guitar Technical Services for a Pro Set-Up as soon as I bought it, not that it needed it really, I just always do it. The bass comes with a slightly shabby but robust Mono Classic Bass Guitar Case Here is @Happy Jack's original advert. Here is my NBD post. Happy to answer any questions or provide more pics, just message me. No trades thanks.

    I set the TV volume to 13 because I'm a Goth.

    Christ, I can't remember if I've posted these or not, apologies if I have, fretless and fretted @Jabba_the_gut builds. The ultimate shorties, even though I've just gone back to long scale thanks to obtaining a Fender Precision Thinline PBAC. The fretted (spalted) bass might be up for sale in the near future.

    Yes, he's a Mobius grandparent.

    Not quite enough for a gear list... yet! I am free for all these dates, which is not at all helpful...
  22. Frank Blank
    It's been discontinued and replaced by the Boss AD-10.

    Ponce.

    Excellent, I'd like to try one of those. Here's my board...

    At last, someone else with an acoustic bass bo... Hang on, is that an acoustic bass rather than an upright?
