Wow... that white Jazz is THE NUTS!! Congrats I've been wanting that exact bass for a while.... that's definitely next on the GAS list!

Lovin' the '75 Jazz....

John Giblin on some of the old Kate Bush stuff...

Liam is such a tosser....

[quote name='crez5150' post='171384' date='Apr 7 2008, 01:13 PM']I guess it's the Marmite factor..... you love them or hate them.... I'm the same with U2 and Oasis[/quote] Aye, I don't mind the odd bit of U2 but Oasis are IMHO quite dreadful....

I guess you can predict my answer...... but I'd probably swap out the preamp....

Nice guitar playing, dull song, dreadful singer..... sorry, I just DON'T get it....

Immense!

[quote name='chris_b' post='169116' date='Apr 3 2008, 02:02 PM']I've got an Ampeg SVT-3 PRO and it's been great for the last 9 years, but I think you need to choose the cabs very carefully. It works really well with Mesa Boogie cabs[/quote] Amen to that..... my SVT-3 Pro sounds immense with my Mesa 2x15EV! Highly underestimated amp..... but be aware that some of the knobs work in the reverse way to you would expect!

I found it all terribly disappointing and uninspiring.... much like most recent Jools shows. I enjoyed Estelle's bassist but, though obviously talented, he was far too busy... The less said about The Only Ones, The Black kids etc.... the better. James Taylor was the only shining light.... soul, groove, feel, depth and talent.... hence the longevity....

Is that Nick or Alex or somebody else??[/quote] I believe his name was 'Grant' and he [i]may[/i] have been Canadian...

Sound Control are now stocking Laklands. The London Oxford St branch has a red Bob Glaub, a blue Darryl4 and a white Darryl5 in stock....

Lovely bass.... congrats!

[quote name='johnnylager' post='163041' date='Mar 25 2008, 11:24 AM']Go on, just one... :brow:[/quote] Well, actually, there is one I may let go of..... purely to clear some debts..... a natural LX4..... let me know if you're interested!

Loving my recent purchase - a 62RI Jap Fender P.... Putting together a 70's RI from Jap Fender parts & a Thumper as I speak! Not letting go of my Spectors though....

[quote name='MacDaddy' post='161043' date='Mar 20 2008, 07:40 PM']sorry for another imminent question, but I am genuinely interested: which bass did he use on Alive II?[/quote] He used Spector #1. The one he got in 1976 (and which was sold a few years back at the Butterfields KISS auction....)

[quote name='NancyJohnson' post='160233' date='Mar 19 2008, 01:51 PM']...I think you need to post some pics of your basses on the porn page. P[/quote] Getting a new camera soon..... and another Spector.... so will do shortly!
