signs of wear & tear give it character. If they've flung it through a window like a tomahawk but it still plays and the neck is straight and still grooves. thats a good sign. Id be happy with that for £80.

Interesting day at sossity Drago.
Mini D declared she wants to play bass, just like her Dad, so today I ordered her a 3/4 size precision for her forthcoming 9th Birthday.
And then I managed to persuade Mrs D to allow me to convert the spare room into a music room so I can finally set up a proper home studio. Ding dong!
Those cheap Harley Benton Fakenbackers are selling alike hotcakes and they've had some very positive reviews. Tempted myself to get a plain wood finish version and create a Lemmy clone.

They're very good VFM, can't decide if I want one or not

Looks good - respect for the company who created the SVT & that 8 x 10 cab!

Saw a bass advertised on the local version of Gumtree and yesterday came back with this little short scale.Epiphone. Needed a bit of sorting but the action quite low and plays nicely.

That looks really, really nice.

It’s well made and finished and the string action is good but the strings are rubbish and the tuning heads have too much play in them but I think it can be made to play really nicely. Takes a bit of getting used to after the long scale.

I knew a bassist who said "I want my tone to be like a hand hitting a carpet."
That Epiphone looks great - the bridge is beautiful.

Latest lock-down video. I still haven't met either of these guys, but even in isolation we're enjoying this little project. Must confess there are a lot of chords here to solo over, so i was quite pleased with my effort.
