You shoulda have played the piece on a borrowed Sandberg 5 string. I think the Yamaha sounds nicer too! +1

I played one locally, twas heavy but 24 frets on a 34" scale made for easy playing. It's more articulate than a stingray for sure and the neck finish is fine but your main issues are - that it's not that comfortable when sitting down and (again!) it's heavy but so are all six strings - i've played heavier.

[quote name='blackmn90' timestamp='1332614217' post='1590780'] apparently he's pretty nearly deaf [/quote] Perfect setup for me to knock Hartke Amplification but I shant lol

Ahh that's a shame, he had a back up bass player who was playing circles around him on a fender jazz - i just assumed he had arthritis or something?? His singing was on the money but not a lot else, even the backup band was mediocre apart from the drummer who was the most entertaining part of it!! I only paid £25 for the actual gig, £30 for the handsigned painting and £20 for the T shirt. Still my favourite player but obviously past it

...And I wasn't impressed. It took 3 songs into the gig before they got the sound check corrected, the opening artist was boring and Jack looked like he was just going through the motions - not to mention his 3 minute long solo - it was a repetitive ramble that went nowhere and was like me doing a warm up exercise (mis-fingered chord shapes on a fretless is a massive no no. I'm a massive Jack Bruce fan, his songs were the first I learnt on bass and his recorded improvisation is second to none (except maybe Jaco). I purchased one of 5 handsigned paintings and a T shirt but couldn't help leaving the gig feeling disappointed and a lil depressed, I haven't been that let down since I saw Whitesnake. As rule I always assume the more experienced artists to put on a better show but I guess not... Anyone else been to see him on this tour???

I'm sure Steve Harris of Iron Maiden played one too - remember looking for one as my first bass lol - white and maple it was too, I wanted a black newcastle utd pickguard for it...ah to be 15 again

[quote name='skej21' timestamp='1329769567' post='1547123'] Nope. Usually end up thinking 'I can't believe you lot are stupid enough to pay us to come and play songs you already heard 10000000000000000 times before, that are piss easy to play and let us come back every other month and pay us to play the same set again!' [/quote] THIS!!! ^^^

What would you prefer? 2 high quality guitars/basses and a good quality low wattage amp OR 1 high quality guitar/bass, a good quality low wattage amp and a custom high wattage amp ???

Love that guitar with the naughts and crosses on the back, just looks cushy
