After 5 years mine hasn’t changed and I’ve still not won 😂

You’ve named 7 bass players out of millions 😂

Same for me. Probably would have kept mine if I could have afforded to but I did struggle with the first few frets. Mine was fretless and it made intonation quite difficult.

Love the sounds Jeff gets from these basses but always been hesitant that it’s just because he sounds good.

Not the right wear for a factory finish, there’s normally more gloss. I expect the clue is in the neck pocket or under the s/p

TM Stevens?

If you don’t like the W logo someone on here got one with a Tesco value logo 😂

You mean to say you guys don’t just spend your days drooling at all the pretty basses? I would in your shoes 😂

Great to see the level of detail and planning

How do you think Entwistle got his thunder fingers nickname?

You could just update in this post with anyone out and Richard can pick up after lent? Let’s see how busy the Easter bunny is this year! If I’m lucky I might get myself a packet of mini eggs!

No way 😮

Looks older than that! Roman era possibly. Was the bass found near Hadrian’s wall?

Why don’t you count it as; 1+2+3+4+5? then you know the accent on the 2,3&5

It’s got the semi quavers underneath. I’d suggest to the OP count the rhythm as you’re playing it. The note pattern itself is simple.

Yeh nerds 😂

That’s the spirit!

I once knew a guy who replaced his Squier tuning peg with a 50p coin, is that a downgrade? 😆

I am still wary when a seller says recently setup by “insert name of local I’ve never heard of”. Just because they charged money for it doesn’t guarantee they’re any good at it. At least that is easily fixed though if they haven’t broken the truss rod. The modification that can really ruin a bass is a bad paint job and sometimes that’s hard to see in photos

I rest my case 😂 Oh sorry I got the impression you were arguing if favour of it being cool!

The days of any metal style being cool are long gone!

Zuckerberg is most definitely a nerd. Back on topic, 36” scale lengths are super nerdy! Who are you trying to impress with your tight B string!

Surely it’s the bass with the most knobs? I’ve always thought Wals to be a bit nerdy

Cars are a really good example on how you can make it worse. Lots of modified cars end up having reliability issues. Not saying it’s the same for guitars because they’re not as complex mechanically, but I wouldn’t risk it for the same principle.
