    Took the Acoustic I bought at a thrift shop for €50 out for a gig for the first time this week. Boy, is this absolutely amazing. What an amp. Heavy, though. But great.

    Oh my. That looks absolutely fabulous. What a bass.

    I played Dutch national radio yesterday and boy do I enjoy my Mustang. A lot.

    Well, I bought the Starfire case and it's a great fit.

    Sold my Music Man Sterling today. Missing that amazing neck already.

      Ah, we've all regretted selling some bass or other.
      My most recent regret was my Squier CV Precision. But I must behave! apparently.... ;)

      Ah seller's remorse - Every time I've sold a Yamaha Attitude Bass (I've had 4 of them, definitely should not have sold the last one)

      @Marc SI haven't regretted selling it. Yet. But nothing is forever😁

    I'll sure look out for a blocked fretboard bass from 1962

    So I was visiting the thrift shop near my house, I do find some cool stuff there now and then (record player, NAD amplifier) and behold: there was a vintage Acoustic 118 combo there. A bit dusty, but it works perfectly, there was some dust in the pots as well but I had that out with a vacuum cleaner and some knob turning. It sounds absolutely killer! It has that typical Acoustic compressed solid state sound, very tight and an awesome combination with my fretless Jazz. It does remind a bit of Jaco's sound through his 360 amp Best of all: it was only 50 euros!

    No luck yet, but today I saw the case for the Guild Starfire bass. Does anyone know if that'll fit?

    The first fretless I ever played. In amber. It was totally awesome. I had a fretted one later, and a fretless older one a few years after that. Brilliantly built basses.

    Poah, that ACG is gorgeous.

    I think Sander can probably provide you with that

    That is a killer collection. Love the Foderas. Great to see a fellow dots+binding on a Soulmate enthousiast. Fun fact: my Soulmate was the first with dots + binding (and the first De Gier ever with lollipops AFAIK), and my Bebop was the first De Gier bass ever with dots + binding. Great to see it caught on😁

    Both my short scales go "fomp":

    I rarely play gigs with an amp anymore, but last Tuesday it was time for it again. What a sound. Awesome stuff.

    That's my 1971 refin P

    Thanks! I was checking out the JCS case but they seem pretty impossible to find anywhere. I do prefer a proper gigbag though, also for my vintage Fenders

    So I just bought a vintage Gibson EB2 which is absolutely killer, but it doesn't fit in a regular gigbag (of course). It came in a non-original hardcase which is meant for a long scale acoustic bass, and doesn't exactly fit. Any ideas where to get a (affordable) case or bag for this classic bass, which gives it the protection and neck support it needs? I read things about the Jack Casady case, would that work (also with the neck support)?

    Question for you Gibson aficionados: when did Gibson introduce the string mute on the EB-2?
  19. BassAgent
    I'm not a big fan of sunburst in general but I was very happy to make an exception for this '64 Gibson EB-2 I bought yesterday.
  20. BassAgent
    I bought my very first Gibson yesterday. Super chuffed. EB-2 from 1964.

    Oh man, seeing this photo makes me miss my Celinder. Such amazing instruments.
  22. BassAgent
    I had the seniors recline on the sofa. You know, them being old and all.
  23. BassAgent
    I was wondering if anyone knows about a gig bag that'll fit. I really don't like hard cases, sooooo which gig bag would fit?
  24. BassAgent
    I thought my collection was complete. Well, I always had GAS for a vintage Gibson EB-2 but they were way out of my budget. And then I found one online here in NL, for a decent price. Non-original knobs and switch (pots are original), non-original truss rod cover and a non-original case. But boy is this bass amazing. So happy.

    Took a pretty long time to get to this mofo.
