Globe and Mail National Bestseller

It's not surprising that sooner or later I'd dive down the proverbial rabbit hole into the world of vintage bass guitars.--Geddy Lee

From Rush frontman Geddy Lee's personal collection of vintage electric bass guitars, dating from the 1950s to the 1980s, comes the definitive volume on the subject.

Geddy's love of the bass has been nurtured over a lifetime spent in the limelight as one of the world's premier rock bassists. For the past seven years, he's dedicated himself to studying the history of the instrument that's been so essential to his career, collecting hundreds of basses from around the globe.

Written with arts journalist Daniel Richler, gorgeously photographed in breathtaking detail by Richard Sibbald, and with insight from Geddy's trusted bass tech and curator, John Skully McIntosh, Geddy Lee's Big Beautiful Book of Bass profiles over 250 classic basses from Geddy's extensive collection. Representing every tone in the bass palette, every nuance of the rock and roll genre as well as blues, jazz, pop, and country, this one-of-a-kind collection features so-called beauty queens--pristine instruments never lifted from their cases--as well as road warriors--well-worn, sweat-soaked basses that proudly show their age and use. Complete with personal commentary from Geddy that showcases his knowledge both as a musician and an aficionado, this luxuriously produced volume is a revelatory look at the heavy hitters in the world of bass--Fender, Gibson/Epiphone, Rickenbacker, H fner, Ampeg--and lesser known but influential global luthiers such as Antonio Wandr Pioli, Dan Armstrong, and Tony Zemaitis.

The book also features interviews with John Paul Jones (Led Zeppelin); Adam Clayton (U2); Robert Trujillo (Metallica); Jeff Tweedy (Wilco); Bill Wyman (The Rolling Stones); Les Claypool (Primus); Bob Daisley (Rainbow); Fender expert and owner of the legendary Gibson Explorer, Bass Ken Collins; veteran guitar tech for The Who, Alan Rogan; plus comments from many other great players across three decades of rock and roll.

Written in Geddy's singular voice, this book reveals the stories, songs, and history behind the instruments of his inimitable collection. Complete with an index and a graphically designed timeline of the history of the bass, as well as an up-close look at Geddy's basses on Rush's final R40 Tour, his stage and recording gear from 1968 to 2017, and forewords by author and respected vintage expert, Terry Foster, and Rush band member, Alex Lifeson, Geddy Lee's Big Beautiful Book of Bass is the ultimate compendium for the consummate collector, musician, Rush fan, and anyone who loves the bass guitar.

Really good to have
Size: for Q S5V
After owning a wireless vacuum mop I knew it was good to have extra parts like this on hand so I ordered these when I ordered the robot vacuum. Oh boy... when my vacuum did the dreaded run through dog poop I was very happy to be able to just throw the other parts away and replace them on the spot.

Great Value and Perfect Fit for My Qrevo
Size: for Q S5V
This 34‑piece replacement set has been a great buy for my Roborock Qrevo. All the parts fit perfectly, install easily, and work just like the originals. The brushes and filters snapped right into place, and the mop pads feel thick and durable. After replacing everything, my vacuum immediately picked up more dust and debris. One thing to note: the kit didn’t include any instructions for the scent packs, so I placed them in the dust bag—hopefully that’s the correct spot. It would’ve been helpful to have a quick guide included. Overall, the amount of pieces you get for the price is a fantastic value, and it’s great having plenty of backups on hand.
