I'm stealing Funky Liquid as my new band name. 😂

I'm generally not a fan of Fenders but even I like that.

Nope. As part of my day job back in the UK I travelled all over the UK living in hotels for about 6 years. Not something I ever want to repeat. I can't imagine anything worse now than being dragged around on a bus from city to city and never being at home.
Truth be told I can't even be arsed with gigging at all. Unless it's something local with an early start and early finish like a support slot or a nice afternoon party. I'm happy at home with my feet up.
I also can't imagine anything worse than being famous. I'll take the money. But you can keep the fame.

I think it's more important that we make it a rule that the price is listed up front in the title. That way I don't have to keep lusting after basses I can't afford. 😆

Missing both wheels.
You'd need a strong back to move that bugger.

No longer available so it looks like somebody's had a punt on it.

Black for me. The cream ones remind me of bakerlite.
Too old fashioned. But if that's the look you're going for then I guess they work.

Sorry guys. I haven't been around for a while.
I've been giving end of life care to my mother for the past several weeks / months. Sadly she passed away on 6th January. So the internet hasn't really been hight on my list of priorities.
I may revive the thread in the future when I'm in a better frame of mind.
Thanks to all who contributed.

Yes, it's a really good track - but I thought that you didn't like 'screechy' and 'over sung'?
Fair comment. 😂

What, for you, makes it great?
It's a combination of the vocal harmonies, the musicality and especially the lyrics which are about child abuse.

I will always love you - Whitney Houston
Amazing song, written by Dolly Parton who said that she was blown away when she heard Whitney's version - "Yes it's my song but it's her record" - Dolly, huge star in her own right, said that she'd have loved to have been able to deliver the song in the same way. Another beautifully delivered song, again pitch perfect which Whitney was able to do live (YouTube is your friend). Dolly says it fits so many applications - not just for lovers - parent/ child, friends, etc.

It just goes to show how very different people are.
I will always love you is one song which would have me running for the off button every single time. I could just about cope with Dolly's version, but Whitney's is screechy, over sung, overbearing and overplayed to death.
Different horses and all that. For me one of the greatest songs ever recorded is Janie's Got a Gun by Aerosmith, and I highly doubt many people would agree with me.

Best value amps on the market.

Sorry guys.
Life caught up with me this week. Haven't even had time to listen to last week's. So I'm happy to go with @BillyBass suggestion above.

In my case it's my own ineptitude.

Well it's just like booking a courier (as in Royal Mail, DPD or whoever) to collect something from you and deliver it to someone else, only you put them as the collection address and yours as the delivery! You do need to agree with the sender when the pickup will be, obviously, and you need to trust them to pack it up properly - and if they're prepared to do both those things one might wonder why they didn't offer to post it in the first place.
Precisely!
If delivery is offered I'll have it. If not, I'm not interested.

Collection only or YOU can arrange a courier.
Ooh I hate that one!
There's loads of stuff I would happily buy but I wouldn't have a clue how to arrange my own courier to pick it up.

I'd definitely buy that if you were closer.

Another interesting one this week.
Latin pop/post punk/rock.
Not exactly a go to genre for me but I'm give it a go.

I used to have the Gretsch and they're superbly built, well playable instruments.
