Mack the knife - Bobby Darin (and dozens of others)

I cant stop loving you - Ray Charles

I’ve only ever seen one. It was in a shop in Denmark St and I knew someone who wanted one, so I told him about it and he went and bought it. I’m not in touch anymore so I wonder if he kept it. 🥴

You don’t see many which probably explains the price. The original Les Paul Signature bass which was the model for the Jack Casady bass. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/326160300823?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=0gvE614OS52&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=_-qNzvFMRiS&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

I agree with @AndyTravis the neck depth is unusually chunky on JCs.

Good golly miss molly - Little Richard

Having never had a mustang I am surprised that the tiny little pickup seems to perform as well as the Precision type with its exposed poles.

I think the idea that semis are lighter is an illusion. My Peerless Bassmaster (identical to the JC by the original makers) weighs the same as my Precision. I used to own a ‘66 Gibson EB2 and that was over 9lb. I think this is because the bodies are wider and there’s probably just as much wood in them. Many, but not the JC, have a centre block to cut feedback.

I don’t wish to deprive a U.K. retailer of a sale but don’t Thomman carry Sires? As you’re in Europe then there are no import problems between countries and I believe they will dispatch to Portugal .

The lion sleeps tonight - the Tokens

That’s looking real good. Glad you found a decent logo.

Paper airplane - Alison Krauss & Union Station

I agree with @BassAdder60 I to have embraced the lonesome spot that is Guitarchat. Is there anybody out there (ghostly noises off!).

Gravity - Idina Menzel (And others in Wicked)

The wind cries Mary - Jimi Hendrix Experience

Now those are really awful!

I thought that was a chord chart for the guitarist 🤣

Un-teal the 12th. of never. Johnny Mathis

Working in a coal mine - Lee Dorsey

We gotta get out of this place- The Animals

Here she comes - Bonnie Tyler
