I’m so jealous. I’ve always wanted to play an upright bass but they’re crazy expensive where I live, not to mention huge, I’d never get it in my car lol. I will own one one day tho. I promised myself. Enjoy it! I’d love to see a vid of you playing it.

You’ve never heard the song “Touch of Gray”? It’s a good one.

Nope.
I do dimly recall a song about Casey Jones, I think that was the Dead. Memory’s fuzzy on that one, though.

That’s it, “Casey Jones.” A fan fave and one that many others have heard, even tangentially.

This is my last two for a while. Two more whale basses. Both 32” scale. The headless is fretted with EMG active electronics and the 4 string is fretless with passive Bartolini electronics. Both play wonderfully!

Yeah, I’m liking it. It sounds great for a passive bass. I did a set up and now it plays like butter.

This is my collection. The Embassy and the 70’s P-bass are fitted with Rotosound flats, the T-bird and the Tele-P-bass with rounds 
Edit: the tele and the Thunderbird are gone. 
They had to make way for a Sandberg that’s on order.

Well as much as I liked the jazz bass, the poor wiring (and the truss rod nut super tight bothered me 
) shouldn’t be an issue on a brand new bass at over £400 
Went back to the shop today, very nice man happily agreed to exchange it, no questions asked 
Came back home with a rather nice feeling Yamaha TRBX504
Pretty much everything I loved about the jazz bass besides the colour (not too different anyway though really 
)

Nice! Excellent bass, one that can take you a long ways. You could gig with it no problem. I used a 604 for a lot of recording.
Sounds way more rich and full than the typical J-bass sound IMO but I am not the biggest fan of J pickups.

I’m a big fan of Ibanez SR series. I have an Ibanez SR500BM. I’ve had a Fender Rebel short scale. An Ibanez sound gear Gio. A Peavey (late 90’s tiger eye maple) Cirrus. I’m going to sweetwater next month to check out a new REVEREND “Thundergun” Bass. The neck pickup is like a Pbass. The bridge pickup is like a Music Man. And the neck profile is only a millimeter thicker than my Ibanez. I have high hopes for that one. Sexy as Hell. Simple controls. Let’s face it. The venerable Pbass is a Me Too bass. As in, oh you have a Pbass? Me too!
