Ok so I got a little more info about the bass.. BB VII 1984 made in Japan how much do you guys think it’s worth?

Hey BB fans! A friend of mines has made me aware that there is a BB for sale locally.. I don’t need another bass but I’m still kinda interested🤫 I wanted to know if any of you guys can tell me it’s value and if it’s any good! It’s serial number is knin085 And my mate was told by the guy that is was made in Japan 1984. any info would be appreciated 👌 (give me a reason to buy it 😂)

I’d pass on that one mate 😂

Hey Basstractor! I ended up getting a Roland Rp501R, I’m pretty happy with it 🤠

D# minor - Feelings of the anxiety of the soul's deepest distress, of brooding despair, of blackest depresssion, of the most gloomy condition of the soul. Every fear, every hesitation of the shuddering heart, breathes out of horrible D# minor. If ghosts could speak, their speech would approximate this key. ...jeez 👻 (I’m looking for an up beat song in D#minor now)

Yeah man 👏

That’s why u need toe caps of steel to deal with them

Hey Bob ✌️ strings mutes like the other guys have said could be what your after. Also maybe you have an effect like delay or reverb on your amp? I suppose that could give a kinda ringy sustained sound

I hope you get your bass back mate and the scummy neddy junkie bastard (probably) that stole it gets a good kick in the D.ick

I usually just YouTube “backing track no bass” and get lots of tracks in different styles to jam along with (and it’s free 😉)

No bad

Sadly you never get just one..

Sounds like a gutter mate and a bit awkward with the young guys parents watching you 🤦‍♂️ To be honest I didn’t even consider checking the TR that’s a fair shout. I think I’ll just stick to shops for the time being.. or maybe even a trustworthy seller from here 😃 Out of interest which bass was it?

Jean-luc pickguard - 🤣 awesome name! I would get something if I could travel to collect it but a lot of the time it’s too far 👎 I shouldn’t even be looking or a new bass because I’m getting a new piano delivered today but you guys know scouring for basses is an addiction..

I often see lots of nice basses on eBay for reasonable prices but I’m not sure if I trust sending a lot of money incase it’s a scammer! My bass collection would be significantly larger if I had the balls to buy things on eBay 😂 Does anyone here buy basses from eBay without issue?

LeftyJ that’s quite a difference in price.. jeez maybe it is just different colour options I’m seeing. the bronze frets + hardware to me is Warwicky! so I agree with 40hz. heres some links to the wicks I was looking at: https://www.bassdirect.co.uk/bass_guitar_specialists/Warwick_Corvette_4_$$.html https://www.andertons.co.uk/warwick-gps-corvette-%24%24-4-string-bass-in-maple-ocean-blue-satin

For my funky fix I usually check out some of the following people: Marcus Miller Victor Wooten Stanley Clarke Jaco Pastorius (more jazzy) Earth wind and fire Sly and the family stone Average white band Jamiroquai Graham central station I only recently got introduced to a band called Vulfpeck they’re pretty funky theres loads of others but I can’t think at the moment.. need more coffee maybe

I’d never heard of Budgie before you posted this link, kinda reminds me a bit of iron maiden. Its not my taste at the moment, maybe a few years back when I was more into that style. Though saying that I do still appreciate it so I’ll check some of their other tracks out 👌 ..also the album art is cool 😄

Hey all 🤠 when or why did Warwick change the hardware they use and the frets to chrome or silver nickel? I thought they always used bronze but I’m seeing a lot of silver looking hardware (while I’m looking online & gassing bad for a corvette $$ 😂 ) Are these a certain series? Any links you guys have that explains this would be appreciated!

I came across this video of a couple guys playing Isn’t she lovely by a guy called Steven Wonder I think his name was..so that’s what I was just listening to! 🤠 The bass is excellent 👌 here’s a link to it if you guys want to check it out

They really do look like those except the red wire is black

Can’t see any writing on it 🤷‍♂️
