Well, Basschat, you never disappoint me. I wondered if I'd flush a true JJ fanatic but suspected the funny bone might be tickled instead.

Just concluded a two day string purchasing transaction which could not have been easier. Thank you!

What strap did James Jamerson use? Anyone know?

B1on is my favourite - so I guess yes!

Yes please! -
Some amazing bargains out there right now. Guess the shops are hurting from the Covid and at the same time keen to hook the wandering Thomann customers.

Yeah I wouldn't have wanted to be anything other than wide awake when my little girl got married.

DiMarco speaks truth. I have literally lost count of the od/fuzz/boost/dirt pedals I've gone through looking for the one that fits me.

Yeah, I too have lost a little run of festivals, to which I had really looked forward. A nice change from the usual cramped, dingy pubs.

harley benton pb50, can it really be as good as the reviews?

I am no longer surprised by HB. I ignore the price and enjoy the instrument. Glad you're happy with yours -
She wears a hat. It's an emotive issue. I have read here that the only bass players who wear hats are old, past it, and desperately trying in vain to look cool. See also showing any sign of enjoying yourself while playing.

I use one occasionally. It has a plate screws onto the mic stand and attaches to the back of the bass with a strap onto the strap buttons. It's great fun to play like that, you can kind of dance around the bass while you play, rather than dancing with it. Very useful for weighty basses too. Mbrace mine is

Good point, @Al Krow, the Zoom multi fx units have great envelopes.

Only scratched the surface of mine, but yes I love it too. Probably Spectrum, MXR, Fwonkbeta in that order for me

Best/most comfortable non-custom hearing protection?

Ah bum. Don't really want to lose them inside your head 😬 -
Hi, Vocalist uses the harmony pedal, I use the pitch correction. She makes it sound so good - because she's an amazing singer - I still sound crap!

Happy Ears. Unbelievably good. Discreet, hear the entire band and affordable. -
Spinners for me! Could lose a few days to this man's back catalogue

That's a really, really tidy job @AJ567. If my gigging board is ever actually finished for good I will have to attend to a good spring clean, neaten wiring and so on. What is the function and benefits of the gigrig boxes?

It's interesting to hear him say how common it was to claim to have played on those uncredited sessions. People did it just to get the work. Carol on the other hand, well, memory can play tricks as we get older.

Some interesting reflections from the late great

The 500w head does look interesting. Historically I haven't had the best experience with Laney. That's because I moved from a Trace Elliot combo to a similarly spec'd Laney one and, well, you know, Trace Watts and all that. But that's a singular situation and many years ago - I don't use it to measure the entire brand.
