If I also happen to become the keeper of that bass, I give them a name. Introductions will follow but this is Theseus.

It is with great sadness that we learned about the passing of Rick Buckler, a long-term MU member and iconic drummer in The Jam
Rick leaves behind a rich musical legacy and our thoughts are with his friends and family at this time

In 1979, I bought a 1963 Hofner Violin bass with original strap and tweed case, for next to no money when they were deeply unfashionable and nobody wanted them. I used it in a band playing rock'n'roll for a couple of years, then sold it when I changed bands and had no need for it. Fast forward..1/n
