Isn't "hankering" a great word?

Conveys the interest and the desire, but without making any real commitment. :)

I have a hankering to try DB (see Clarky's many threads for the source).
I have lots of electric basses (see the photo-link from my sig).
I have very little spare cash (see the letter from my bank).
Probably because I have lots of electric basses (see above).

I could look out for a cheapie DB to have a try on; [url="http://www.thomann.de/gb/thomann_kontrabass_111.htm"]http://www.thomann.de/gb/thomann_kontrabass_111.htm[/url] is always available, and there are similar DB's available in the UK.

Before I drift that way, an alternative would be to offer a swop. Anyone here with a decent (but not great - t'would be wasted on me) DB that they're looking to swop for an electric bass? Or two. :)

Light-hearted post, but serious suggestion. This is WLTM but not (yet) a proposal.

I'll see your hanker and raise it with a ponder - Aria SWB EUB (the one with the piezo and magnetic p/up), missing the funny little piece that is supposed to support it against your body but never made much sense to me when I played it. I just can't get on with anything without a low B, but as I say, it's very much a ponder at the moment!

That's not a bad thought, Wayne.

What sort of DB is it? (Thomann / Stentor / Anton Whatsit / Other).

How playable was it when it arrived?

Honestly! The DB forum is usually a bastion of decorum and probity and then along come Jack and WPD and suddenly its nipples and grease-guns. Pass me the smelling salts, Violet!
