Bump, just coz this man saved my bass playing life. Fo shizzle :-)

There's one every wednesday at Wadhurst.Not solely blues, but a fair bit of. Forgotten the name of the pub but it's right in the high street. Also depending on where you are in Kent, you could take yourself to one of Robin Bibi's blues jams in Kingston and Carshalton.

So much so that I just stopped accepting the crap gigs lol

Looks like it would put a left handed crick in my back.

Why not use your own? lol

I remember recommending MyMusicStuff to you Lee! I'm ever so sorry! I've never had a problem with them in the 4 years I've been using them. Sincerest apologies. Nick. (sorry for the small thread hijack)

www.musicdojo.com does some great online courses. I took one a couple of years ago in reading music, and the format and "doability" of it was very straight forward , and there's someone on hand to answer any questions you have at any point in the course. They've got some top top tutors too. Good luck, Nick.

Hi all. 3 or 4 years ago I bought a cd full of Fender bass, guitars, and amp wiring diagram and schematics and I've just come across it. I know these are available from trawling through Fenders webpage but if anyone wants me to email them any diagrams or operating manuals... just let me know. It covers the following basses. 60's jazz Am Deluxe Jazz Am Deluxe Jazz Fretless Am Deluxe Jazz L/H Am Deluxe Jazz V Am Deluxe Precision Am Deluxe Precision V Am Jazz V Am Precision Am Standard Jazz Am Standard Jazz V Am Standard Precision Am Vintage 62 Jazz Am Vintage 62 Precision Am Vintage 75 Jazz Am Jazz Deluxe Active Jazz Deluxe Precision Special Hotrod Am Precision L/H Hotrod Precision Hotrod Precision Am L/H Hotrod Precision L/H Jaco Pastorius Jazz Jaco Pastorius Jazz Fretless Roscoe Beck V Standard Jazz Standard Jazz Upgrade Standard Jazz V Standard Precision Standard Precision Upgrade Stu Hamm Urge II Vintage 57 Precision They're all in adobe acrobat format.

I don't know what it is about old Fenders, but they just look like they want a cuddle lol

I downloaded these earlier in the year . Awesome albums!! edit: Blimey I just found the post I put on here about them and it was July 2007. Where did that year and half go???? lol

Maybe they're hitting hard times. They're doing a promotion for 50% off subscriptions. :-(

[quote name='Golchen' post='341682' date='Dec 1 2008, 10:18 AM']Personally I'm amazed at the amount of slap hate shown here.[/quote] Likewise .. Everyone used to hate shirt lifters , but now people leave them alone and pick on slap bassists instead. lol
