    So not stolen from Abbey Road on or around 21st January 1969, along with one of George's guitars?  It's all a bit confusing. Fair play, if it is the one he must be pretty chuffed.

    Apparently given to someone in a will…now back with macca.

    What would you do?

    With you on the Gibson Andy. Any particular model?

    I’m thinking a ripper in natural/maple, maybe a grabber in natural…

     

    id love a thunderbird or RD - but the offset shapes look weird on me.

    Amplified Acoustic bass

    The acoustic is an old 70’s/80’s Italian made bass - flats, defret, I mic this up when recording…gets a fairly DB sound.

     

    The Yamaha is a late 90’s/early 2000’s BEX4c, gives a P bass sound with piezo sounds too - handy when I can’t take my ripper and the acoustic.

     

    I think the direct tone sounds of the piezo help the bass sit in the busy ish sound of the band I’m in.

    The Yamaha one is on the left - you're missing the texture on the sides - this is specific to Yamaha's speed knobs and what makes it bloody frustrating if you find yourself looking for them.  They're just not the same as standard speed knobs.

    I had about 30 of them and like with the heavy grade 80’s tuners, I’ve sorted so many people out with them…I’ve ran out 🙄
