    another vote for the Bass Gallery in Camden. great shop. you might as well pop into the Camden branch of Guitarguitar while you're there. and the Black Heart for a pint (or whatever else). Borough market for food Museum district (South Kensington) for, well, museums Tate Modern or Tate regular...

    Can your first bass be your best bass?

    my first bass aged 13 was a no frills cheap Encore P bass copy, the cheapest available where i was at the time. i loved it and thought it was so cool, just the best. used to just stare at it leaning against the wall. i kind of miss it, it was sold long ago. so: yes, maybe?

    Carnivore Diet vs Playing Bass?

    If you're on an unconventional diet and you are experiencing health issues that you believe are related to it, I would guess that it's probably best to see a doctor. That's about as sensible an answer as I can manage.

    Talkbass AI Change To Naughty or Rude Words

    That's a new one on me! EDIT I mean that particular word... nice to see the mods enjoying themselves, they work hard. My favourite is when someone has a meltdown about it. Just go literally else on the Internet if you want to swear!
