Do please explain why.

Whilst I don’t fundamentally disagree with most of the above and I’ve played Ps on and off most of my life, I still own one and play it regularly, I’m not sure that the claim about sound engineers holds up. Looking at the world of pro bassists I think more of them play Jazz basses ( or basses with 2 J type pickups) than P basses. Presumably engineers cope with these.

Same here. Can I have a ‘51 Precision as that’s the nearest?

If the band was asked to play at a Service which was to be attended by someone who was respected by the drummer, he would probably turn up on time. So playing before the King of the Universe in His honour ought to be the highest calling. If your drummer is that casual about turning up, it may indicate that he’s not very committed to his faith.

I keep recommending the Gibson EB5. Really light, great pickups and USA made. I picked mine up for under £600.

Brown eyed handsome man - Buddy Holly

Half sunburst, half natural is fun& original. 🤣

In my room - The Beach Boys

The kids are alright. The Who

Gibson EB as in my avatar. Great sounding humbuckers but has pull pots which converts them to single coil. Best of both worlds.

Last night, the touring company of Six. Great all female backing band to the 6 “queens” who sang and danced their fish nets off!

You’re welcome, I can’t believe how few likes it’s got!

Kinga Glyk with the Frankfurt Radio Big Band in an outdoor concert, not to be missed.

There is another issue with buying in the US. If it’s new you are not protected in the event of it going wrong by your retail purchase rights, i.e. no guarantee. Had this problem with an iPad bought over there, it died, Apple wouldn’t do anything about it. If bought in U.K. it would have been returnable for 2 years.

I had trouble with Parcel2go years ago and would never touch them again. 👎

There always seems to be a steady stream of their stuff being sold cheap on eBay because it was damaged presumably in transit to the shop.

Horse with no name - America

Most airlines will no longer let you take a bass in to the aircraft and the overhead lockers seem smaller these days and won’t hold one. Do you really want to risk one in the hold?

She’s not there - The Zombies

The back is made of beautiful woods. However I haven’t played since before covid lockdown so it’s gone on Gumtree.

Strange Brew - Cream
