    More money for less bass? Harrumph!

    I like Yes, a lot, but some of it really leaves me cold and or irritated (shades of, “Shut up! We know you can play,”). Take any bits you like and stick with them. I really like the pre Steve Howe era Yes, Banks & Kaye definitely had something going on that I found and still find pleasing. Yesterdays is a intro to that era, with only 1 Howe, Wakeman era track, a cover of America, which is sublime. YMMV.

    Funnily enough, I’ve tried playing my Rob Allen in the upright position and I find it very comfortable. Sadly, this does nothing but increase my GAS for a double bass (along with a ‘Ray).

    Having now had the 'Ray SS for a good while, I'm really starting to get the 'Ray bug again. It doesn't help when this appears on the GG website as incoming 😍... Fortunately, I've seen the weight for these published and they're way too heavy for my ailing shoulders. But just look at it!

    Go really old school, get a Fuzz Face, that’d be different.

    I've had another listen and 1- 4 certainly have a pickup in the P(ish) position, but I think 5 is more toward the 'Ray position. 1 might be a Mustang as it has so much low end and 3 might be a neck position J bass, 5 a 'Ray type and 2 & 4 being Ps. I'm quite happy to be miles out and for them all to be P basses with different pickups.

    I shall be keeping out a sharp eye in case you decide to move that one along, you're just down the road from me . In the meantime, enjoy.

    If you like the bass as a design, leave it as is and acquire a new one as an addition, to counter the need to potentially wipe many £s off of the value.

    Why would a non bass player buy a bass at all? Oh, hang on, I think I see what you mean, someone new to bass? The Roscoe Beck sig was a fab instrument in its own right, if the neck hadn’t been so narrow on the 4 string, I’d probably still have mine. Strange really, as the 5 string was particularly wide, compared to something like a ‘Ray5. Still probably the best bass Fender no longer make (although there is a strong case for the Stu Hamm too).

    I wonder if that body could be salvaged with some judicious sanding, filling and respraying? It certainly couldn’t be any worse.
