Just saw this on a local forum.

The guy who bought the same bass twice — first in 1977 and again in 2023

Interesting!

Pretty quick hands there.  Cool sound, although stylistically a bit limited.  But very cool for what it fits.

Sounds like a hypheractive fretless. Doesn't John Paul Jones slide around on bass too?

I'm suprised nobody's posted these guys yet... ("Morphine", from the 90's, with their 2-string slide bass)
If it was good enough for Danny Bonaduce, it ought to be good enough for fake bass players everywhere!
