Does anyone have a 4 string active or PJ loaded bass tuned B-E-A-D I could borrow or maybe hire for a month or so? Ideally someone based in South/South-East... I need it for some live dates with an artist and I don't really want to file a nut/re-set up one of my basses if I can help it as it's likely a one-off... I don't play 5's and haven't got the time to get one/get familiar with it.... Please PM if you can assist! Thanks in advance!

Love me some classic Doobies 💜😎👍

Just bought a lovely mirror scratchplate from Alex. Great comms and super fast delivery, cheers!

When I tried one with Fishmans it was OK but didn't have that Spector 'grind & grow;' on taop when I wanted it. The new one with EMGs does though! I went and bought one

Bought a lovely P bass from Paul. Great comms and a great deal. Thanks mate!

Does anyone here own a Gruvgear Kapsule Duo? What are your thoughts on it..... does it do the job safely and securely for air travel? Considering purchasing one for an upcoming tour...

Ah yes.... It's Tamas isn't it?

Isn't the ridiculous price enough to save you from purchase?

It's OK, thanks.... I saw it....... and yes, I love you too....... x

Jangly guitars, shoe gazing and no distortion pedal in sight....... 🤣

See, they can't even get the BASICS right! Who the hell is in charge of project development at Gibson?!? And they wonder why people buy Chibsons etc....

No, no, no.....! FFS... Noone wants an overpriced Epi Rex bird! If you're a Rex fan you know his sound is Spector. That's where your money goes. Why doesn't Gibson just reintroduce the Grabber, Ripper and G3, with cheaper high quality Epiphone versions (under £1k). THAT'S what the market is asking for!

If you're not being sarcastic.... that would be Jerry Scheff on the later stuff. Fantastic bassist and no slouch (check him on the Elvis in Vegas footage).

I'll say goodbye to Mick No one ever cared if he should live or die....

Peter Cetera (Chicago) Tiran Porter (Doobie Brothers) Paul Goddard (Atlanta Rhythm Section) Martin Tiefensee (Lake) Rutger Gunnarsson (ABBA) Joe Puerta (Ambrosia) John Deacon (Queen) Dee Murray (Elton John) Leon Wilkeson (Lynyrd Skynyrd) Kip Winger (Winger) Eddie Jackson (Queensryche) Gene SImmons (KISS) David Paton (Alan Parsons Project, Pilot, Kate Bush etc) Ross Valory (Journey) Del Palmer (Kate Bush) Will Lee, Neil Jason & David Hungate (session greats)

Had loads over the last few months. Just put them in spam and ignore.

That Kay Tulip was my first bass!!

Sansamp - Punchy, grindy tone without distorting Then add a: TC Electronic Spark Booster - adds as little or as much grit as you want or: Joyo Double Thruster (budget copy of a Darkglass B3K and just as good IMHO) You don't need anything more than the Sansamp plus one of these.

Nickel is warmer than steel.... but still has a nice zing. A basic set of Rotosounds, D'Addario XL's etc should do the job. If you prefer the feel of flats then something like EB Cobalt flats may suit you as they are still quite bright.

This ^ The one good thing that could be said about record companies etc back in the day was that they acted as 'pooh filters'. A band or artist had to at least have a modicum of talent, or a decent song, in order to be invested in and released. Now, should you feel so-inclined, you have to wade through hundreds of thousands/millions of bedroom-made tracks to find something half decent. It's unsurprising that so many people just don't bother. The 2 or 3 huge media companies that now own all the radio stations don't help either as the 'knowledgeable DJ playing exciting new music' is now a rarity and people are force-fed the same homogenised nonsense (new or old) over and over again.

Spent all day yesterday in the huge cold industial unit 'venue' that is KK's Steel Mill in Wolverhampton where we were filming the new promo video for "The Bootleg Rock Show featuring Leather & Lace", our 'rock anthems & power ballads' theatre show.... Huge stage, lights, video screen and sound. Looking forward to seeing the finished product!

Damn, that's lovely! Can you PM me with details of who you sold to? Cheers!
