    I don't seek out sunburst but nor is it a deal breaker.

    "No, I don't know it, but if you can write it out for me in accurate notation (or tab if you must), I will see if I can play it for you." Keep a supply of staff paper and a black pen in your gigbag in case of this eventuality.

    Noow owned by Bob Daisley ... https://bobdaisley.com/gallery/bobs-guitars ... and scroll down

    Maybe my recall is inaccurate, it was forty years ago. If it wasn't Columbus, I'd guess at Antoria and I'm not certain it was a Ripper copy not a Grabber. Either way it seemed an OK instrument in those days.

    In the early 1980s I briefly had a black defretted Ripper-style copy labelled Columbus, if i remember correctly. It was an OK bass.

    Also lefty Fender Jazz in White Album period.

    No.

    I just ignore signature photos and any too large signatures, There's lots of them

    Look to the little x at bottom right of your post ... it's 'ignore signature preferences'

    I'm with you now, you meant Luck Be a Lady not Fly me. My misunderstanding.
  11. EssentialTension
    OK, I Just realised you meant Luck Be A Lady not Fly Me to the Moon. I concur.
  12. EssentialTension
    Really? I don't recall that.

    Playing open strings is good. It's four notes that are available in any position. Especially on a fretless where it's four notes that are always available and also in tune. (Obviously more notes on a fiver, etc.)

    What?

    I would not slacken the strings or the trussrod. They are built to be at tension.

    Me too but also Mamas and Papas, Turtles, The Assocation, Fifth Dimension, etc, in fact many West Coast/Los Angeles session players. Although some e.g. Carol Kaye were using a Precision.

    Fender Jazz with flats (preferably GHS Precision Flats in my view) and played with a heavy pick over the neck pickup is a 1960s thing and not just TV themes.
  22. EssentialTension
    The remniscence of a Mullarky with a Wal, Hayman, or Shergold stops, of course, at the scale length.

    If it's just a couple of bases in cases, for a few months, I'd ask musician friends to look after them for me ... they usually don't mind too much having an extra instrument lying aound.
  24. EssentialTension
    I was challenged by this issue too. Impatient you see.
  25. EssentialTension
    Or go Japanese ...
