    Practice on Very Rainy Days - Slight Rant

    Yes, this is lame. Before I could afford covers, heavy black plastic garbage bags and a couple of towels got me through rainy days. I even made covers from garbage bags. Wow.

    The Pedulla Club!

    Wow, sorry to hear of your troubles. Thanks for clarifying you tried Pedulla. Good luck and I hope you get some satisfaction in the end. I will think twice about buying a guitar in JUNE!

    I've never seen Jaco play this bass before

    Wow, what a derail. Which of Jaco's basses read Beat books and did drugs? That is what I want to know!

    Ride moocher?

    I've had bad experiences with giving rides in the past so I refuse to do it on a regular basis. I consider personal transportation as an important part of a musician's gear.

    Antares Basses?

    My first bass is an Antares with a P-shape body and 2 P-pickups. No shielding and Gibson style controls with fake neck through lines down the middle. Sounds pretty good. I got it for Christmas in 1983. I have no idea on resale since the one you mention is the only other one I have seen.

    Gigging with a Miata...

    Wow, I used to cram my Jazz, Bassman 20, and gear in my Triumph GT6 and thought I was cool. Keep having fun with your sporty cars!

    Not going entirely as planned

    Walk away, that is not normal "good band" behavior at any level.

    Why do you like or dislike the Peavey Cirrus??

    After reading the BP review, the bolt-on Cirrus may just be the best bass for metal!! ; )

    What should I do? *WARNING* Depressing 1975 Jazz Bass Photos Inside

    My vote is a big +1 to restore/preserve as-is: Keep the body, load it with pickups, and dress it up. See if an exact neck replacement is cheaper than a rebuild. This bass has a history beyond it leaving the factory brand new so have fun with it the way it is now.

    Criteria for joining band?

    "NEXT" on the first band. I wouldn't want the aggravation because when I have experienced that, it turned into hierarchical mumbo-jumbo. See how the second band audition goes and keep your options open until you commit.

    Looking for a different "flavor" fretless bass - long...

    Can you travel to another part of the world that would have a store with better selection to try stuff out?
