Upright & happy! Playing my Yamaha SLB200 Ltd Edition electric upright bass through my touring bass rig consisting of a Bergantino Forte’ HP amp and a Bergantino HG412 cab. No wonder I’m smiling! 😉 (photo courtesy of Nicky Armstrong) ift.tt/2TMsHT0

I love vintage Ibanez Musician basses and I’m pleased to say I have all the models (and more) from this old Ibanez ad. Stunning instruments both visually & sonically! 😉👌 ift.tt/392SEU1

The only two fanned fret multi scale basses I own and they are of course IBANEZ! 👍👌 On the left an SRMS806 snd on the right an SRFF806. Both are a dream to play, and very even sounding across all strings and registers. A killer low B string too! ift.tt/2wrWfxO
