Count Bassy

Bilbo, only just noticed that you are back in circulation on Basschat. Good to see you back, though I still miss the carrots!

Shame it's in Japan, I would have liked to have it to offer as a house bass at the next open mike.

Saw Roger Daltrey with his band (Not the Who) at the Birminham Symphony Hall last year sometime. Still an excellent voice and excellent show, IMHO.

Not in my experience. The open mic that I go to is every other Thursday. Every other other Thursday is a jam session, and is totally different.

And he'd rip all your frets out!

and the Val Doonican .... Val Doneagain

I'm a bit like that, but there has to be an X in the month.

I was suprised whan I found out peoples nerves don't always follow the same route. In the situation we are talking about here that nerve sometimes goes round on the outside of the elbow, and in other people can go on the inside of the elbow.

I've never had it diagnosed, but I suspect that I have this. Mainly if I've been doing a lot of DIY sort of stuff. never had it after playing bass though.

Stylophones ??😄

Indeed. A bit like getting "a result".

All basses, but especially 5 strings, should have graded ratios on the tuners. Ie the lower the note the higher the tuner ratio. It would make tuning those low notes a lot easier. Much less "'Shit, too far', start again"

Let's think about that one for a while.

Better than a tight G-String.

Personally I would say £400 tops in the above situation.
