Ah, this thread has really made me laugh... 😂 And there was me thinking all these years that bass players, of all the muso stereotypes, were the respectful, thoughtful, intelligent, accepting Folk ... But no. What a moany bunch of hateful, hobbity, gollumy bass players we all are.... 😁🤣 Having said that, and especially after earlier mention of the awful cod-reggae forced on the entire worId by UB40, I can't believe we've got 8 pages into this thread without no one mentioning the entire back catalogues of: Jamiroqouai and Vulfpeck Hearing 'music' (potential Trade Descriptions Act warning here) by either of those 2 cod-funk peddlers leaves me utterly, utterly cold and makes me despair... Just my opinion of course, but a I reckon that a drum machine, a sequencer and a vocoder left alone in a darkened studio for a couple of days, could create music with more emotion than either of those 2 faux-funk bands.. And to continue in this grumpy vein, I also think most solo albums by 'virtuoso' bass players should be consigned to Room 101. Right, I'll get my coat now and exit quickly....

Hi @Plusnine Thanks for your kind words and offer of a trade... Your SBV looks great; very cool, retro vibes. But having said that, it's not something I have a need of at the moment as it's similar to a Jazz bass tonally I understand, and I recently bought one of those which I'm really happy with... Sorry and best of luck with your sale! Cheers Nik

Had the pleasure of meeting @rambam, aka Roy, on Friday to buy his amazing Mesa Carbine from him. Had to laugh when I noticed, sitting there unobtrusively in Roy's man cave, was a Handbox all-valve beauty of an amp (that's recently been bought here on Basschat), that's replacing the Carbine... ... Such is the gear merry-go-round here on Basschat! 😁 That aside, Roy's a great person to deal with - great comms, very welcoming and his gear is extremely well looked after!.. So, very highly recommended to one and all here on the forum. 👍 Gotta also say that he's a fine player, with a couple of fab basses on display, including a stunning vintage Ricky! Very GAS inducing... As for the Carbine - it's absolutely great thank you Roy, and I can't wait to gig it soon. Thanks again and all the best, Cheers Nik

Thanks Andy, T'was my pleasure , Sir! The proceeds have gone towards the costs of a recent addition to my (should be shrinking, but is in fact, growing) bass collection... 😁😊

Hi Folks, I recently sold an Ampeg Classic Analog Bass Preamp to Andy, aka @badger and discovered in the process that he doesn't have a Feedback thread, so I thought I'd do the righteous thing and start one for him. So, just to say that Andy is a great person to deal with, and that this transaction was completely hassle-free, thanks in no small part to his excellent comms, fast payment, and easy going nature... Based on my experience, I'd say that you can deal with Andy in absolute confidence, Folks. 👍 Thanks again Andy and I hope you enjoy the pedal! Cheers Nik

So, another day, another Mrsa Boogie deal with John, aka @Captain Rumble 😁 To explain briefly... A few weeks ago, John bought my Mesa Boogie M-Pulse from me and was kind enough to wait until yesterday, when I was able to deliver it to him in person. As ever, it was a pleasure dealing with John who is a long-standing Basschatter and a credit to this fine forum. Excellent comms, super-fast payment and lots of great bass and muso stories to share, even in a 15 minute meeting in a pub car park! 😁 All I can say is, you can deal with John with absolute confidence, Folks... It was great to see you again John and I hope you enjoy the amp! Cheers, and here's to the next time. Nik P. S. It was great to meet Mrs Captain Rumble too... 😊
