Well you wouldn’t have trouble finding it...

Fancy lending someone something that was so unsuitable, how do you live with yourself 😂

Our drummer had to remember to forget something for each gig.........

That Terror/SP210 rig sounded great.

Fender also now use colour coding, but don’t think they do steel rounds so good chance of being D’addarios

Nice couple of basses there. Have to admit I’ve been considering a fiver.

A yes from me, BF cabs are very good and a worthy acquisition.

It could be, the style of music I’m playing is different and it’s certainly easier on the Jazz neck, but even when playing along to this material on YouTube the Precision just seems too bulky whereas the Jazz just fits in perfectly. I knew these were strange times, but didn’t realise just how much.....

So for years I’ve been a Fender Precision man, virtually all of my fave bassists use them and their sounds, plus the dynamics of how a Precision reacts to playing have been a big influence on me and how I play. So why is it at the moment that I’m finding I’m gravitating to my Fender Jazz as my go-to bass more and more, and, when I do pick up a Precision it’s just not hitting the spot so to speak. It’s not “new bass syndrome” as have now had the Jazz for all of this year. I’m finding the neck so much easier to play, and am much preferring the sound - neck pickup on full, bridge pickup on about a quarter. Confused 😳

Rotten news Stew, gutted for you.

Just screams ROCK!!

If you can afford it, do it. I’m similar, I have some nice basses and only a non-gigging band, but playing bass is my hobby so why not have the instruments I want, providing I have the funds of course.

Still a good few, Wunjos still good as ever.

There’s Coda Music in Stevenage, or may be worth trying a bit further afield - PMT in Northampton have a good amount of bass gear.

Yeah, split the signal and set eq appropriately for each combo, could sound great (after all, two Ashdown amps are unlikely to sound anything but great).

It got great write ups in Bass Guitar Magazine

Some great influences there

Yes, was a bit later than that though, late 80s, used to hang out with the guys from Black September/Rich Rags at Spiders among other places which given the amount of beer I drank when there I can hardly remember.

Whilst I`m a big fan of the Vintage V4s their necks are chunkier than most of the Squier Classic Vibes I`ve played.

I would only have got Geddy Lee from that, nd more from his stance than the bass being played - plus the squiggle/logo thingy of course.

That’s bad, been to The Welly a few times.

A couple of things that I think are good re 2x12s are usually they are stacked vertically so taller/easier to hear, and that unless a very large stage usually are enough as a single cab solution for most gigs.

Wanted Dead or Alive by Bon Jovi. Not particularly difficult in terms of notes, but got to have the right feel - and given my usual style is hit as hard as possible all the time I’m having to work at this one.

11, not bad really

Nikki Sixx of Motley Crue I believe did a lot of the lyrics.
