Happy New Year. All the best for 2025.

 Happy New Year to all you Guitar and Bass enthusiasts.

2025 already, how time flies.


Over the festive break I have freed some old friends from their cases and gig bags.

It was more of a reacquaintance with some I haven't seen for a while and some that I haven't seen for some time. Ibanez Musician and SB70, along with RB650 and a later Blazer bass, in festive red. Aria SB 900 and SB404, which is one of the later built basses that I think boxes above it's weight. Gordy headless, so light and comfortable and finally a Peavey Foundation, a gold one, first generation "Line around head". I have three of these, the gold one, a fretless in sunburst and the white one, which is the the one I call Roger, after Roger Glover. Playing the gold one for 10 minutes reminded me of how good these basses are. Slim, fast neck and Super Ferrite pick-ups. Roger, who was known for various mods on basses, left his as stock - as it came from out of the box. Surely a big thumbs up for the early Foundation.

It seems that a lot of you have had a relax over the holiday and been searching for guitars and basses on line, as views/reads increased a lot, just over yesterday.

So, if you were one of them, Welcome Aboard.

All the best for 2025.

Cheers. 😎
