I guess I presumed that you’d change your Ace Axe avatar to one of a nice Rickenbacker before announcing your new instrumental allegiance!
(But no, I don’t remember any particular bass-centric posts from you…probably in the threads I tend to overlook)

Offline I think Les Pauls are very pretty guitars, but they’re just not suited to the style I want to play.
Actually, I’ve come to the conclusion that I’m going to sell both my Les Paul copy and my (brandless) bass guitar and buy (drum roll please) a Hofner violin bass! I’m going to university in the Autumn and I figure that there will be loads of guitarists in the scene and not many bassists. Plus bass is just so fun to play, maybe more fun than lead guitar, particularly playing something like Drive My Car or Town Called Malice. It would also announce me to any other Beatles fans.

He seemed a little haggard, but it did not slow him down,
he was humming to the neon of the universal sound.

Wow that’s really, really cool @QuarryMan!! 
Town Called Malice, now there’s a great bassline… *proceeds to get it stuck in my head without even listening to it*

News item for the guitar-playing forumpudliansGIBSON: LAUNCHES NEW PRODUCT, SHOWCASES MARQUEE ARTISTS AND NEW TALENT WORLDWIDE at NAMM 2019
Indeed, it was an unusually good NAMM this year, and not just the guitars, some amazing new pedals and basses and …stuff.

But first I want a bass guitar… probably a Precision Jazz. I recently had a dream that someone was showing off their basses to me and I was as green as this thing of beauty (oh how I want it)
You mean a Jazz (Precision is the other bass) of course. That’s a pretty colour!
Also, Town Called Malice is played on a Precision bass (Bruce went off his Rickenbacker for some reason).
I am still loving my Fallout, and I have now added the Digitech Obscura delay pedal to the Carcosa fuzz and I will have to get the Polara reverb to make the set! Hopefully in a week or two I will have a proper desk and chair and I can get on with getting a music puter set up, and get more stuff like a mixing desk etc. There’s a terrific American company called Pyle that do amazing knockoffs of Shure microphones $20-40 down my way, so I’ve picked up a PDMIC78 which is their sm57 and it sounds exactly like one, down to the -20db threshold. So I’m going to get a 2nd one and maybe shell out on a proper Shure 58 beta for actual singing (you can do it with an sm57 but it needs a windshield).

I don’t think that’s gonna happen, that pic of Sadie is too iconic.

Not only is it a replica of a Pagey guitar, but also…
Page visited our Custom Shop in Corona, CA and personally painted a portion of the dragon design on each guitar.
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! WAAAAAAAAAAAANT

Offline So I’m visiting my cousin, who makes guitars, and he told me that there’s a greater-than-fifty percent chance that someone (idk who) is going to get one of his guitars to PAUL MCCARTNEY.
Don’t know if this is the right place to say that, a mod can move my post if it would fit better elsewhere.

Offline I’ve been playing the drums for a few years and I started the euphonium at school last year. I’m pretty good at both- first chair euphonium and I’m working on SFF on the drums right now.
Oh, and week or two ago, I bought myself a Fender Strat (my first guitar).
