MoJo

So that's why they never caught on. I always wondered why they weren't more popular (apart from being fugly)

When I saw the thread title, I was expecting a 'I now identify as a man' discussion, with a bent toward size and aesthetics advice

B.C.Rich Eagle. The headstock was attracted to the floor like it was being dragged there by a powerful electromagnet. A real PITA to play

Ideally situated to hop over to the next Midlands Bass Bash. Welcome aboard

I had the DE model too. Well put together and sounded great. Unfortunately, the neck was too slender for me. I like a chunky P-bass neck

Guilty as charged Taken in July last year. That's me, far right, with the 'I'm not sure about this' expression

Known Spen for years. Didn't know he was playing with Icefire

I have been fighting with this very conundrum for some time. I have a Yamaha BB1100s which other musos have complimented and I must admit, gets taken to gigs quite often purely because of the badge snob in me. I by far prefer the tone and feel of my Vintage V4 P-bass, which I paid £82 for s/h and the V4 sounds better (to my ears) in a live situation with the band. If I know other musos (especially bass players) are going to be in the audience, I will take and play the Yamaha, otherwise it sits on it's stand as the back-up to the V4.

Thank you

@Andytre, could I ask what search parameters you used to find such a beast? I seldom have bargains like this show up in my search results

P-bass or P-J on the neck pick-up At home: everything flat Live: Bass -1, Lo Mid +2, Hi Mid +1, Treble flat

How much are kidneys going for on the black market these days? I've got to find £1000 from somewhere

That looks like one bass you will regret selling. If I had £1000, it would be on it's way to the UK

Gorgeous

His talks are always very entertaining.
