How VERY dare you?!? 🤣

I know what the World's Greatest Basslines are.... and I can guarantee they won't be on this programme.

Urgh...... philistines..... 😠🤮😉🤣

On Friday I went and saw the fantastic @sprocketflup (Dave) playing with his wonderful Kate Bush tribute show 'Cloudbusting' again, but this time with an Orchestra, at the massive Basingstoke Anvil Theatre! 😎 Such a wonderful performance, with the orchestra and arrangements bringing out the depths.... and the subtleties... of Kate's music like I've never heard before. Dave nailed it on bass, as always, and I was fascinated to hear from him afterwards that a couple of the basses he was using in the show had actually been owned/played extensively by the late Del Palmer 🤯 It always make me happy and proud to see my fellow basschatters involved in such wonderful projects and I can't wait to see these guys again as they never disappoint!

It landed today!! Plays great, lovely neck and sounds awesome. 😎👍 Here are a couple of bad 'artificial light'pics in my studio. Better 'outside' ones to follow when the cloud/rain lifts....

Once it's cleaned up and working, it may be worth seeing if Davey Rimmer (Uriah Heep) is interested. I can put you in touch when the time comes....

I'm saying "I'm taller than you, even without a cap on...."

The wonderful Kate Bush tribute 'Cloudbusting' tonight at Basingstoke Anvil, complete with Orchestra! Looking forward to seeing Dave do his thing on bass....

Yep, Big Horizon were fabulous. Great to see you there Trev..... Gotta say that Lee Pomeroy and Donavan Hepburn are a seriously tight rhythm section... wonderful to watch and listen to!

Expect it to be £1200 over here, as Grabbers were £999 at first.

The secret sauce of a Spector is the Haz preamp..... and that needs to be boosted to bring out the wonderful harmonic overtones....

Actually it has a Neve preamp, rather than the Darkglass..... and sounds much better as a result.

I was considering it, but too big a venue. If it was Hammy-O or Brixton Academy I'd consider it...
