Thanks folks. If and when I dig myself out from under learning dep sets I'll spend some time reflecting on all this invaluable advice and rework a few transcriptions.

Oh I say! Splendid.

Yep, I love the pre shape when I'm on my own. With a band it needs a bit of help

Thank you.

Yes! There's only one on this amp. It may look as if I counter it with the eq but trust me it sounds beautiful.

Absolutely! I only worked it out for a dep gig so it's not 100 %, for instance I have written it for a four string with normal tuning. So no low D. I'm working this weekend but I'll get it to you when I'm back

God I love that Trace sound. Tonight's rig...

Yes I'm learning to use Musescore, frequently stopping to find and follow tutorials. I'd like to arrange things more neatly, and when I work out how, I will. And thank you.

Ah I wondered about this. I confess I look up the tempo and key online! I just assumed that anyone else would know better than me so went with what I found.

Thank you both so much for your feedback. It's really helpful when you're learning a complicated process on your own to get this advice. I've only done a handful and not shared because I know tgey make sense to me but might not be correct. In future I will share them all in anticipation of help like that above. Thanks again. Stew

Too wordy? Maybe this

Black for me

I was unlucky with the reliability of my Markbass head or I may well have said it was the best I've tried, its impossible to say. I've only had four class D heads, Bugera Veyron, MB 800,TCE 250 and Orange Terror 1000. The best, hands down was the Orange. Unbelievable power, clean as a whistle unless you cranked the gain (which you could hardly do unless playing Che Stadium) responsive tone controls. Awesome bit of kit.

I went to see David, and a thoroughly good chap he is too. Came away with a toaster in my pocket and escaped a hair's breadth from buying a bass from him. A beautiful Les Paul shape, medium scale with Ric style pups. I can't afford it, no room to keep it, don't need it. Been thinking about it ever since!

This interests me. My main board is full but I use the Tri Parallel Mixer and an always on pedal in front of it. Not in front as in the chain 🔗 but physically in front, currently on the floor. A little board like this would be just the ticket 🎫

I wonder if the fretless sound itself, being so distinctive, colours what he hears to the point where subtle differences between P & J are lost. He's just hearing 'fretless'.

Don't be too certain.

I am enjoying this. The most important observation -
