Prize equivalent is 1 set of EB Pino flatwound strings

Keep it, it’s time may come. I had similar with my P bass that was largely untouched for nearly a decade but now is used regularly.

It sounds nice though. I do like the demos AB has on his site.

Yes but if it’s deemed stolen material they don’t have the right to give you that copyright. Much like if you bought a stolen bass from a thief, you lose the bass and money.

Playing a 30 min set with jamiroquai at a French Riviera or Amalfi Coast private pool party with unlimited food and drink included, and unlimited dips in the pool. I would probably do it for free but a hefty cheque would also be nice.

I had a 2000 US DLX Jazz and it was fine with the string thru bridge, but no better than my current Sire. I thought it was 18mm though.

£280 at the bass gallery according to their web page. Not sure I would trust anyone else.

That is the main argument against AI derived “art”

They really turned the American range around post 2012. Totally different to the vintage basses but no less wonderful!

I get what you mean about the first part, but then at the same time if AI were to be influenced by minimal sources it opens it up more to plagiarism. AI and the construct of genre is interesting because I think AI really needs those sort of boundaries and organisation. Yet as we know the influences used in songs make the lines between genres incredibly blurred to the point where it’s almost meaningless!

I’ve missed out on several basses for not much money but was already stretched as it was so it couldn’t happen. I always just hope that one day I will be in the right place right time, but in the meantime enjoy what I have.

I did say at the bottom of my response that it mimics how humans learn. The difference being while we take information a bit at a time, AI can read and digest large volumes very quickly. The legal decision is can tech derived art be classified as art… luckily not my decision to make!

No not always, as we know there are so many variables with the originality of these instruments. But as a general rule of thumb it gives a good idea.

Take 15-20% off dealer price and that’s should be about right for private sale.
