[quote name='Conan' timestamp='1494342922' post='3295156'] I think we all are... [/quote] Not me: not anymore. There's plenty of evidence been provided here of players who would satisfy any reasonable interpretation of the OP, and if the thread instigator is unconvinced then (not to appear unduly harsh or dismissive but) so what? I'm out.

[quote name='Jenny_Innie' timestamp='1494340804' post='3295120'] I'm unconvinced. [/quote] Well since you've made no effort to provide any context, nobody has a clue what your criteria are. What's to stop you making exactly the same remark ad infinitum? In fact, if I were of a cynical disposition I might start wondering whether this has anything to do with guitarists or bassists at all. I might go further and wonder whether this isn't just a pot-stirring exercise...

It is a bit juvenile if we're honest, but if it's the worst thing we have to worry about today then we'll have done pretty well.

[quote name='stingrayPete1977' timestamp='1494271664' post='3294615'] Yep but still doesn't meet Jenny's requirement, if Steve Lukather doesn't count as a guitarist that recorded bass on one of Michael Jackson's biggest hits I'm not sure what we're after? [/quote] That was going to be my next question but you beat me to it. I used to work a lot with professionally trained musicians who were highly proficient (as in 'to a professional standard') on a number of instruments. I consider them great players because of their skill on their various instruments rather than any perceived star quality they might have on any one of them.

[quote name='Jenny_Innie' timestamp='1494267987' post='3294566'] [indent=1]I'm not convinced by any of the comments so far. Maybe Paul McCartney. Otherwise ...... pfffft![/indent] [/quote] Thanks for the vote of confidence. It might help if we knew why you are asking people to give you their time and attention. Hopefully it isn't one of those 'guitarists can't play bass' things...

Newton Faulkner[i].[/i] IIRC he plays all the instruments on his albums himself. A brilliant all-round musician IMHO.

I would hazard a guess that there's quite a few residents of this parish that would fit the bill...

Pretty old, but hardly used and still in its original box. Something for your other half to do while you're out gigging perhaps...? Some background info for those that can use it: [url="http://machineknitting.wikia.com/wiki/Brother_KH836"]http://machineknitti...i/Brother_KH836[/url] It's free, so [b]no posting[/b].

I had a Taylor 855 for some years. Expensive but a great instrument. I used it mostly for Blues fingerpicking. Lovely, full sound for strumming too. You can't buy them new anymore but a good used one might be worth a look. If there's a downside it's that it's a physically big instrument that won't suit everybody.

[quote name='Rocker' timestamp='1494093945' post='3293259'] Contact Grammar School Records in Rye, East Sussex. Google for contact details. [/quote] I need to catalogue the records before I do anything else but it's another useful contact, so thank you for the info.

[quote name='keeponehandloose' timestamp='1494086371' post='3293165'] any 50s rock and roll ..Im interested.. [/quote] Doubtful, but I'll keep my eyes peeled.

[quote name='dlloyd' timestamp='1494084465' post='3293151'] If there's any Django Reinhardt 78s in there, I'll take them off your hands [/quote] It is possible: Mrs. LBM's dad was a fan as I recall.
