    Did someone let children in? They’ve hung their 3:4 sized toy bass amongst your other worthy instruments 

    just checking it’s not April 1st today 

    It’s a bass vi (30”) just currently tuned as a baritone…🥸

    In 2001/2 I went to Sound Control, I had recently decided that all guitarists were crap, and I after 5 or so years playing bass would show them what guitar playing was.

     

    I was going to write songs and play guitar and do solos and stuff.

     

    I’d seen a guitarist magazine review of this fancy blue Yamaha and it hung on the wall in the shop gleaming.

     

    It didn’t work (a SC specialty), it had a loose volume pot and dicky jack socket. I know the DiMarzio pickups sounded great for the seconds they worked.

     

    I ended up with a beautiful telecaster 72 custom instead.

     

    But it always bothered me; I wanted the blue Yamaha with a bigsby.

     

    Anyhow - they’ve cropped up occasionally, but seem to be abused.

     

    this one is ok, a few marks - not bad for 23/24 years old.

     

    Needs a clean and new strings.

     

    But it seems to play well.

     

    I shall report back.

    are you sure you’re not an alien impersonating our mr travis without doing any homework ?  

    you haven’t mentioned “next shiny thing” or “sneaked this in..” or “give it a week or so” 

    fess up, Zarg you’re not fooling us 


    Have to admit…selling one very expensive bass and turning it into 4 less expensive basses is a new trick…

     

    also…the next shiny thing is en route but it’s to replace my Old Pacifica electric guitar…
