"Percy, it's green!"... Also of note is that Sandy sold you a Sandberg. Or when Ricky sold me a Rickenbacker. I made that last sentence up. Nice little rig there... enjoy...

I only know of two famous PRS bass endorsers - Gary Grainger, who played with John Schofield and Etienne Mbappe who played with John McLaughlin. I don't see famous bassists lining-up to play them in the same way they do for the guitars... There was a time back in the naughties where everyone had one! Even my Nan and she doesn't play guitar. **Edit - I may have mis-remembered that last bit**

Right! You lot just sit around. I'll do it...

Clip please...

I'm hoping it's a pre-production model. His big semi (fnarrr) which started this thread never made it to production I don't think. Hope this one will...

Looks like he has another new bass... Guessing it's a Yamaha from the headstock... Kinda has a Ibby look about the body shape.

No one has mentioned the re-use of the 25+ year old footage of Bootsy explaining the 'One!' I think from Rockschool originally?

!? They are parallel. You mean 'separate' perhaps...

1) It wasn't about bass guitars specifically... 2) Carol Kaye did mention playing on the 'Fender bass', albeit whilst playing an Ibanez!

Lot of other manufacturers in the 'six' story though... Fender, Carl Thompson and Fodera for example... Anthony Jackson and subsequently John Patitucci were the innovators... Arguably Jack Bruce on the Fender too.

He was great! Also it was about 'Bass', not the 'Bass Guitar'! That's it didn't focus on nerdy model-specifics but covered voice, synth and D&B...

By popular music standards... covering Motown, Beatles, Disco hits is covering the bases (not basses) enjoyed by many, many millions over the last 50 years. John Myung is practically invisible on these terms - no matter how good he may be. This was all about pop music...

Good line-up... Bet we don't get Jaco

Nice concise history of the bass there with a bit of colour... I want to watch your documentary.

It's the B-Social all over again... pedal market has some moved on...

Erm... just get a synth?

Yeah fugly like a Tyrannosaurus' arm...

Probably for balance...

Some AFR goodness with none other than Dave Swift presumably organised by slated Ibanez UK...

Agreed... so how much do you think they'll be... without speculating of course..?

My bass spews 18v of filth... It's pretty hot. The OP plays a Jack Cassidy so I think that's a semi-acoustic that could boom or have all sorts of transients.

Good point Bigwan. Perhaps we need to chillax and get back to unity gain: in life, in politics and in our psychology.

Wahhh!!!!! Sounds like a faulty unit? Normally sound great.

Erm… I think it depends on your technique and how 'hot' your bass is and if your recording... You say your technique is rubbish so if you're heavy-handed I consider trying one... Intrigued with your pedal board...

DaveFry… I'd love that Wal through a Trace rig...
