    Me. I have a fretless jazz and a plywood economy upright which somehow manages to sounds great. Other than a novelty Lego bass on the wall, that's me done.

    Arrgh, my back was fine when I read this topic yesterday. Today I can barely stand straight. I think I just slept in an awkward position, but I did move some PA speakers yesterday afternoon, or was it just the power of suggestion?

    I assembled a bitsa - Squier body with a Fender fretless neck that fitted when I went fretless. It looks like a Fender and I feel like a fraud and correct people (mostly schoolkids) who say "ooh Fender". Really I should sand off the Fender decal and get a Squier one!

    Not personally, but the mandolin player in our band has just hit 1.8M streams for his ancient Greek music on Spotify. As far as I understand, it's hit a sweet spot with some of the "algorithms" and is being pushed out to new listeners automatically.

    Tonight, and it was good. I began the process of handing over the bass 'seat' in our community big band to a teenager who's just starting out. He plays a left handed bass, which is kind of cool to demonstrate as our basses were mirror images of each other.

    “ELECTRIC GUITAR 4 str. semi-acoustic art. 426 r PCT RSFSR 508-75 MAA 1987 The price is 125 rubles. 197061, LENINGRAD USSR he is Chapaeva, 15 r. coch T. Lenuprizdat” Just a little correction as that's two words that aren't used anymore and it's incredibly rare that the Russian O-level night classes I took in the 1990s have any use!

    I play with the Widders Border Morris in Chepstow. You're not a million miles from us if you ever fancy a visit, especially when we're doing a dance-out.

    Our band is mandolin+accordion+drum. Some times I do melody plus simple root-chord oom-pah bass patterns, but sometimes I leave the melody to the mandolin and focus on more complex bass lines. Sousaphone or tuba on the bass... now that would something!

    No bass for me today. Tonight's gig was outdoors at a foggy -2˚C morris dancing at a Christmas market. I would have been playing piano accordion but with the weather that stayed at home and I took a plastic recorder and did the best I could with stiffening finger joints and condensation in the instrument. It went down well enough though. Skiing thermals underneath, chemical heat packs in my pockets to pop my hands in between songs, and hot chocolate between sets saw me through.

    That's interesting! We were invited to join the session but as we have a battery we tend to use 0kWh during 4pm-7pm. I'll try a forced export next time and see what happens... I was actually paid to not play bass once - because the lead singer was Irish, someone booked the band thinking we were an Irish band... and paid us off after the first set

    Learning to play to a click track released me from band politics 😎

    It does, though the mandolin player from our band is doing well on Spotify with 1,000,000 plays of his ancient Greek music!

    Stopping playing in my mid-20s, and not start again until I was 40

    I just sold my Markbass amp and GR Bass cabinet to David. He was very pleasant to deal with, no problems at all. Recommended Basschatter!

    I wasn't yet around in 1969. I'd have liked to see the Who, but I'm not keen in Sid-era Floyd. But Soft Machine too, I'm studying music and they keep coming up and it's a band I'd never heard of until last year.

    Boss CEB-3 bass chorus pedal. All working, comes with somewhat battered but original box & manual. Collection from Chepstow, or I can post to UK addresses. £45, but offers considered.

    Stagebug SB-2 passive DI "for bass and keyboards". All working, bought in 2021 as a spare. Some damage to the white paint after I removed DYMO labels reminding me what each button did. Comes with original box. Collect from Chepstow or I can post to UK addresses.

    Yup, we play Blackmore's Night covers as well as genuine Renaissance stuff, so I have all sorts of mediaeval garb that would be a bit weird in the rest of my life. My previous band was bluegrass so I had checked shirts, dungarees, etc. the checked shirts at least morphed into my everyday wardrobe.

    No Ritchie Blackmore?

    Do you mean the graphic below? It's the Marcus Miller edition, complete with "Milleriser" EQ circuit

    My bathroom scales are suggesting 13lbs. I bought it when I was recovering from a back injury and wanted lightweight kit.

    Mark Bass "Little Marcus 250" bass amp. All working and in good condition. Comes complete with Mark Bass gig bag (that is designed to stay on while operating) and Mark Bass twin pedal to switch EQ channels. Collect from Chepstow area. I may be able to post, but I'd rather the buyer has a chance to try it when collecting.

    GR Bass AT110 carbon fibre cabinet. Rated 300W RMS, 4Ω impedance. Advertised as the world's lightest bass cab. * price reduced to £325 * I bought it in 2019 and I've mostly used with double bass in our community big band where despite it's small size it held its own. One corner foot is slightly loose, otherwise good condition. Collection from Chepstow/Bristol area, or we may be able to arrange a mutually convenient meeting place. Demo can be arranged, providing I've not already sold my amp (listed separately). A speakon cable can be included if needed.
