  1. New Squier medium scale, Quite like the grey one with Laurel fingerboard. https://www.notreble.com/buzz/2021/04/06/squier-unveils-the-affinity-series-jaguar-bass-h/
  2. I still love seeing live music but would rather no one else was there apart from the band these days 😄
  3. Dug it out the SX Gypsy Rose, played it, it's bloody great so I'm keeping it as it is 🙂 so I'll have to think again re upgrading the shorty.
  4. I'm gonna dig my SX medium scale out of storage and possibly nick some parts from that, I think I put Hipshot lightweight tuners on it and a ceramic pick-up 🤔
  5. I think I'll have to do a little work to the fret ends as well, they are a tad rough but for £100 delivered I think it's a great starting point for a project and with a few upgrades will make a fab little bass.
  6. I don't usual like blue basses and had a notion to strip it and see what's underneath but it's a good looking instrument, The tort isn't bad, it doesn't look like salami thank goodness, it still had the protective film on! Had a very quick play and it has a bit of a rattle on the G string that needs sorting, also I'm guessing the strings are steel and sound quite brittle so they will have go in favour or some Chromes or very old dead nickel round wounds I think, So far I'm liking it 🙂
  7. I've been into medium scale basses for quite a while and had a couple (still got one) SX Gypsy Rose's that I really like so it seemed silly not to bid and surprisingly win an SX short scale Precision on eBay last night!
  8. Certainly worth checking out some physically smaller and shorter scale basses, see what your nearest music shop has plus there might be fellow BCers near you willing to let you try their short or medium scale bass out - good luck 🙂

  10. Bought a Glockenklang pre-amp from Trev, it's like new, great comms and it arrived the next day, what more can you ask for 🙂

  13. I'm thinking of maybe picking one of these up in red as a project bass, short scale fretless 🤔

  15. I'm going to attempt to fashion a tripod stand for my recently acquired cheapo EUB using a modified tattooists armrest, I'm not sure if that's something you could look in to doing if the official NS stand isn't any use.
