Has anyone tried these? I'm not a big fan of coated strings, but the blurb says that they feel like uncoated ones. I might give them a go, as I like to give different brands a try https://www.stringsdirect.co.uk/products/daddario-xt-coated-nickel-plated-steel-45-105-bass-guitar-strings-long-scale

Chas himself was a bass player. In fact, he played on a lot of early 60s Joe Meek recordings.

We do a couple of AC/DC covers which are are basically root note plodders. I tried to to make them a bit more interesting by adding a few fills etc. Unfortunately, it didn't work with those songs. So I guess less is better in that case.

I quite enjoy paying Alive by Pearl Jam. Its not overly tricky to play, but I like doing it. Also London Calling and Black Night I get a kick out of playing.

Bought a 1978 Fender Precision from Nick. Great comms and kept me updated on the tracking info. Would deffo deal with him again, and would recommend him to other Basschatters. 👍

I missed that. I wouldn't mind seeing it again if they repeat it. But it is not on tonight's schedule .Do they often repeat these shows on Sky Arts ?? -
Some schools and musical charities with little to no budget used to take old strings to put on guitars, basses. I wonder if they still do..

There is a lady on youtube called Ryan Madora. She teaches some excellent basic beginner blues bass lines. I've been watching her for a while, even though I play that stuff fairly well, I still like to watch her videos.

I have been looking around for a padded bag or case to put my little mark Black line 250 in. There is an official markbass one that goes for about £60. But a lot of places don't have it in stock. Has anybody got any suggestions for something that will do the job?

I bought this little 10 inch speaker to practise at home. But in fact, I was quite surprised how pokey it is. Especially when the neighbours knocked and asked me to turn the sound down! 😅 I might even consider to use it for small gigs.

I think some of the punters who enjoyed it sort of 'encouraged' them. 😉
