    I think that's bass.

    could be correct , but as the fish is spelt Bass , it is easy to get mixed up

    Bass, bass - spelt the same but pronounced differently.

    There is no plural for the fish, plural, “ I have 12 Bass, they will fry up tasty!”. “ I played my Bass guitar, I have 6 Basses”. “ The base of the vase is strangely out of place.”. “He stole 3 bases at the game”.

    Hi Gaz , well one thing has changed , Michell have modified the bearing at least some thing came from this to polish the seat where the ball sits ,which i had done , but then used delrin to replace the bearing top , which i still use after 8 months , hence the black bit sticking out of the top of the deck and not the normal steel bearing top , this has stopped any vibration into the platter
