The neighbours are going to just love you two! 😜 How easy will it be for him to integrate into the village?

The last one, the chocolate brownie. That would be my call on almost any bass (just preference), but I also think it would be most appropriate here. You're getting an original neck by the original luthier (with stamps and provenance) and this is closest to the original, but clearly an upgrade. As @Grooverjr says, it's the one that would work best with a coloured/ stained body too. Your choice of course, and what a nice problem to have. 😃

A Silly ditty from the GD.

Stunning!

Midlands Bashes have been on a Saturday, and hopefully will be again. Assuming I, or someone else, organises the 2025 one.

Welcome aboard!! Never to late to start, and excellent brain exercise as well as huge fun. I started in my 50s, wish I had done so years ago.

Clearly a fabulous bash, and I hope to be at the next one. @Richard R: Brawley 5 string, HB 5 string with Roland Hex pickup and VBass synth, EBS 60 amp.Cake, raffle prizes. 😊

Hi @Hamster - is there a 2024 Bash?

😢

Enjoy the day guys, and post loads of pictures!

Well that would certainly be more glamourous than my choices of badly playing bass and failing to grow onions. What do you do for a living, and how quickly can I retrain?

WOW!

Eric Clapton, with support from the excellent Andy Fairweatherlow and the Low Riders, tonight. 😎

Not with the amount of travelling I already have to do this week 😪 I shall enjoy the photos, then get off my backside and sort out next year's Midlands Bass Bash.

This is going to be fab. Gutted I can't be there 😪

Welcome aboard!

@Misdee There is a freeview channel checker at: https://www.freeview.co.uk/freeview-channel-checker You put in your postcode, it identifies the transmitter, and lists which channels you should get. If you don't see them, then I guess you need to retune.

Welcome aboard!

Welcome aboard!

Well.... that is what most people on the Internet do.

Welcome aboard!

Not especially challenging for a lot of the people here, but this is definitely something I want to learn as a party piece. I'll have to learn to play it fingerstyle first, playing with a pick is a whole world of confusion for me.

It's already too late, you came here last week! 😄

🫣🤞
