fleabag

Well of course Built on a factory line with about as much passion as a spotty McDonalds employee building a cheeseburger But i guess this hardly matters considering how many have bought them and use them. Millions of bassers cant be wrong

There's over a 20 year difference between our youngest and oldest band member. Hasnt made the slightest bit of difference as far as our band goes. As it happens, the genre we play , everyone of us loves it

Thanks Mick. I have a grill with logo

Blimey guv, i had the identical Magnum 3 , apart from having regular knobbage, no sliders, and it cost me about £300.

oooer, that is a rather spiffing looking lump of wood

Blimey, you'd think there were no excellent bass builders on here for the asking

He couldnt make that bonfire piece any worse

What about a Guyatone ? A right stab in the dark I have no idea but they did make rather stonking JB copies

They should epoxy that pile back together and it will sound just as good as when Fender built it

I agree with the ' give it to him straight ' posts. You're not a social worker and he doesn't need the gentle approach, as if he were a child. He isnt gonna hurl himself off a cliff because he's not on a level playing field with everyone else. Just be straight, but not nasty. Thats it He may even go away and practice more.

Almost exactly what dad said. Some tracks we cover are practically identical, some have bits changed to enhance things, some just embellished. The only thing we havent done, AFAICR, is that we havent dumbed any down

There's a 21" version, 150kg stand if needed. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Large-150KG-Folding-Step-Stool-Multi-Purpose-Heavy-Duty-Home-Kitchen-Foldable/132089176191?_trkparms=aid%3D888008%26algo%3DDISC.CARDS%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20131227121020%26meid%3D83a8aeb9b9004140bb32ec41b1b0c43e%26pid%3D100009%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D2%26mehot%3Dpp%26sd%3D122610169608%26itm%3D132089176191%26pmt%3D1%26noa%3D0%26pg%3D2047675&_trksid=p2047675.c100009.m1982

I use folding steps ( 2 steps in my case ) and the 15" size. They'll take 130kg per step. Should easily cope with any cab situation. I've attached some sturdy packing foam on mine. Stops them sliding and gives the cabs grip, and helps isolates the vibes. They fold flat for transporting which is the cherry on the cake https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Plastic-Large-Multi-Purpose-Folding-Home-Foldable-Easy-Storage-Step-Stool-NEW/122610169608?_trkparms=aid%3D555018%26algo%3DPL.SIM%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20131003132420%26meid%3D9e06dfa9a3da45c5b997c461a02b3f27%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D4%26rkt%3D12%26mehot%3Dag%26sd%3D330752479864%26itm%3D122610169608%26pmt%3D1%26noa%3D0%26pg%3D2047675&_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851

Great fun - nowt wrong with the bass either

Time to get rid of this rubbish

Agreed and i like the bass, but i dont play 5 's or contras. But if that was a 4 string regular 34" and £500 i'd be tempted

Is that white bass a short scale ? Looks awfully stubby for a 34

I'd like a to play with a drummer who turns up with his kit in a taxi Oh, yeah...ZZB

You're welcome

Ask him if its a ghost bass, too

Another slapper. I managed 3 seconds

No probs pst. Shame they never did more. The band split but did other things separately. Pal Dennis married a French woman and shuffled off to live in France about 25 or 30 years ago. Frank the drummer took up Jazz guitar, and Jerry the bassman is still around playing in some mediocre bands that he's far too good for

Had to get it out of the laundry basket, hence the creases

Those graphics look like they were done by a comic book artist, i must admit.

She's not actually real, so probably not
