Great review - I have the Classic player thin line guitar in shoreline gold and it is an absolute keeper with a fantastic neck.

Superb!

Beautiful!

Difficult to pick one out. A total hero when I was younger and the guy who made it cool to pick up a bass, dress all in black and stomp around (playing Jam songs mind you!) Love his music but lost a bit of respect for him after reading Hugh Cornwall's biography and how he actually feared for his life at the mood swings and attacks from JJ. I assume he is calmer and more mature now and still love listening to the grooves he lays down. The OP's Raven is something I always love listening to but as an aside, I was at a GuitarGuitar Martin promo workshop and I wandered in. Diane Ponzi (?) approached and asked which Martin Acoustic I wanted to play. I replied, 'I'm really a bass player..' 'Oh great she shouted! We've been waiting for one to come in all day - try this!' She handed me the GPA Bass and I was put on the spot in front of about 15 shoppers! What could I play on this beautiful piece of acoustic wood? Easy...out came 'Peaches'! 'Oh that's nice' she said, 'What is it?' About 4 guys shouted out 'Peaches' at the same time! A lot of JJ fans there!

Fender P-bass Specials have the PJ config I think?

Midnight Hour My Girl Do I Do Sir Duke Soul Man Hold On I'm Coming.....stax I know but great fun to learn.

[quote name='Big_Stu' timestamp='1419433350' post='2639919'] I only ever have my amp in a straight line from the mains, I find the electrons having to slow down to get round bends or corners in the mains lead affects my tone! [/quote] No! No! No! For every gig you should use a virgin cable gently stored in the freezer for at least 28 days. On the night of the performance, the cable should be unwrapped very slowly using : ut = (l/d)x(1/n), where ut is unwrapping time in days; l is length of cable in km; d is mean distance from amp to bass in km and n is estimated number of crowd. Anything else and I walk.

Not read the whole thread but this strikes me as being an example of a [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Veblen_good"]Veblen Good[/url].

Buddy Holly - Weezer Guide Me Home- Sugarland

The White Stripes! I mean White Lines!

The Pot Wholes

[quote name='martthebass' timestamp='1419186892' post='2637393'] That bass is a Cheyenne2....cracking bass, has a playable neck for normal bassists unlike the first Cheyenne which could be converted to a 5er ;-). Forgot to say K, nice purchase! [/quote] Cheers.

an excellent review full of honesty and perception. Thank you.

[quote name='Martin E' timestamp='1419186492' post='2637385'] Wow! If Liberace had played bass I'm sure he would have had one of those. [/quote]

Tremendous. Is it a Cheyenne?

Jings! what a load of moaning minis! The Who were staying at Mar Hall and relaxing next door. They heard the band and Daltrey had a wee listen. After a quick talk, everyone agreed to a busk of 'Can't Explain.' Everyone happy and kudos to the bass player who really knew what he was doing.

Cheers for this - very interesting.
