  1. This one arrived with some rattly red silk jobbies. Probably Rotos 105 -45 I am going to replace them with some D'Addarios before my next gig, but that isn't till the end of the month so I'm in no hurry.
  2. I tend to stand on the right facing forward. Not a conscious choice, but one made for me by the lack of space in a lot of the venues we play. It doesn't really bother me where I stand as I cant hear much anyway. ๐Ÿ˜‚
  3. Looks just like the Limelight I bought recently. You would be hard pushed to tell them apart! Top job! ๐Ÿ‘
  4. Didnt EVH give his kid the bass chair when the lad could hardly play the thing??
  5. Hmm. Beatles - White Album XTC - Black Sea REM - Document
  6. For some reason I'm playing the F# with my thumb! ๐Ÿค”
  7. I had never heard of markbass before I joined basschat. When I saw the for sale section had a few being offered, I made a few inquires. Now I own a CMD 121 and the NY cab.
  8. Or the Thompson Twins. ๐Ÿ‘
  9. George Harrison. I knew he was ill, but he was cremated even before the news of his death was released.
  10. I didnt know they did Japanese Stingrays? ๐Ÿ˜ฎ
  11. I found my present one on join my band, but usually its networking (word of mouth) that gets me in bands.
  12. Whats going on with Bruces' P Bass jack socket? Looks like a stock late 70's Precision with the jack socket moved underneath a la Stingray. Did they do them like that or has Foxy modified it?? Best seen at 2:52 in this video.
  13. The Shaggs - Philosophy Of The World. Its very interesting music. ๐Ÿคฃ
  14. Hmmm. https://heavy.com/news/2018/11/musicians-lost-homes-california-wildfires/
  15. Theres an American chap who is balding who has a youtube site called 'Real Bass Lessons' I quite like him. He always has a grin on his face. Reminds me of a favourite uncle when I was a kid. ๐Ÿ˜‹
  16. I always use tab. I have no interest in learning to read music. Although I,m quite aware that a lot of it is wrong, I just need the basics. Oops Wrong thread, this should have gone in the other thread. ๐Ÿ™
  17. Oh wow! What an Aladdins' cave of treasure I have stumbled upon! At first glance I thought it was just notation, but tabs as well! I will have to peruse it properly.
  18. Schools Out by Alice Cooper. Not too taxing but there is a little off time bit in it that throws me off.
  19. I do agree that the above Jazz is a bit OTT with that relic. I would never have gone that far. However, the sonic blue P bass with that light relic is tasteful.
  20. Actually two things. Its not a Stingray!! ๐Ÿคฃ
  21. Was it yours that was waiting for parts that caused mine to jump the queue a head of you? Oh dear, what a shame - never mind! ๐Ÿ˜‚
  22. Oh yes. ๐Ÿ˜‹
  23. My Mother In Law was chatted up by Dave Davies when they played in Kenton in the 60's. Apparently his advances were spurned. ๐Ÿ˜‚
  24. Wasn't The Fun Boy Three the same lineup as the current incarnation?
  25. Not a sequencer, but Nigel Harrison puts in a lovely little fill at 3:26. If that were me I would probably overdo it and spoil the the song. Just goes to show that to many fills or little bits chucked in can be a bit too much.
