    The Reverend Club (part 8)

    I have an '02 BH 5 (original owner). Several times in the past I used vm&p naptha and a soft cotton cloth with pretty good results. Now I just let it show it's age gracefully. WARNING! If you do try this do it outside and leave the rag outside when you 're done. That naptha is nasty.

    What is the Bassline that inspired you to pick up the bass?

    I think guitarist/bassist Phil Upchurch was active in Chicago during that period. I don't know any details though.

    Bassists few people talk about...

    Early in her career, Bonnie toured as a duo with only Freebo. I saw her once in that configuration. I just don't remember where or when.

    Anyone here think instruments are about to get real cheap?

    I think GC is already on it's way out. Recently it took three salespeople almost a half hour to place an order for an $11. music stand. Their problems preceded the pandemic. I was told that they're now owned by a cosmetic company.

    Don't know if prices will change, but the large chain stores might start offering bigger discounts and coupons. That is what happened during the 2008/9 recession. I saved $100. on a $500.(street price) Roland pedalboard, which I'm still using.

    What is the Bassline that inspired you to pick up the bass?

    Just two of many are Betty Wright's version of Open the Door To Your Heart (Chocolate Perry ?),and Electric Flag's version of Killing Floor (Harvey Brooks?), but those two still stand out.
