  1. I would never have recognised him from that pic Rob. Used to seeing him with a moustache. Dave
  2. Have you put the wrong pic on this one Rob. ?
  3. 3 to learn for next Glam rehearsal and 2 for the Punk rehearsal Lets Get Together Again - Glitter Band Children of the Revolution - T.Rex Lets Stick Together - Bryan Ferry Gotta Get Away - Stiff Little Fingers Working For the Yankee Dollar - The Skids Dave
  4. Liking that one Rob. Sounds relatively "easy" for Jeff Berlin 😂 Dave
  5. Not sure i would even attempt that at one of the punk gigs. Fingerstyle was a push in a punk band and slap would be pushing it a wee bit i reckon. That and the fact i'm not very good at slap. Dave
  6. In the Glam covers band i occasionally use my index finger as a pick. Find it easier than using my thumb for faster parts. Dave
  7. nice fretless tone there. Enjoyed that. Dave
  8. Wont do fretwork or truss rods if tight. Basic set ups i'm fine with. Electrical problems i can usually cope with but on an expensive bass i would probably take to a luthier. Dave
  9. I wasn't sure if both pick ups could be switched into single coil. Can only see 1 switch ? Dave
  10. Tasty. Are the pick ups both switchable split coils on that one. ? Dave
  11. or a bonfire I jest of course. It was fashionable in its day Dave
  12. I have nothing more to say to you. BC suspension as far as i'm concerned. OK you were young so maybe that's your excuse. 😂 I think i traded my WAL for a white Ric that i only kept for 3-4mths and traded that for the Fender Jazz i posted earlier in the thread. Dave
  13. Look forward to your thoughts / review. Liking that a lot. Dave
  14. Its kinda funny but i bought a 2nd hand 50's reissue P bass end last year and altho its due to get a decent set up soon there's aomething about it i just like. Butterscotch with maple neck and gold anodised plate. Its not the best bass i've ever had and the neck is wider than i'm used to but i like playing it live. Its simple ........... V & T what can go wrong with that. Once it gets the action sorted and frets levelled i'll use it more. At the moment its the back up bass to my MarloweDK in the punk band. Dave
  15. Its another Tequila Sunrise ................ Dave
  16. Sometimes less is more. I've noticed with quite a few amps that a little change in Gain can make quite a difference if its hovering on the sweet spot. Dave
  17. I remember you telling me that era were pretty good P basses. But why that particular P bass. Was there something about it. You were doing a fair bit of gigging and just curious what made that bass stand out from your others. Dave
  18. WHY oh WHY ??? £200........you should be ashamed of yourself. If for any reason you decide to do it again please let me know beforehand Dave
  19. Vid from Sun nights gig Emergency Exit at The Cave, Paisley Glasgow. 1st time i've played there.
  20. Think this has been done before but happy to add my own. 1970's Fender Jazz maple neck with brown body WAL custom fretless Aria Pro SB1000 Shergold twin neck 4 & 8 string basses. All of them from late 70's to late 80's, See pics below. Dave
  21. 100% agree. Every time i use mine i'm surprised just how good it sounds. Dave
