This looks very nice. I love the tones I get out of my Fender Rumble 100v3 combo so this might be nice to try as my main head to go with my Epifani UL310. Love the no thrills look as well. Its 800w and comes with a foot switch and gig back and is around £550.

Gggrrrrrr Fender release a Japanese Limited Edition Fretless Jazz and guess what, its lined, like all their other Fretless Jazz basses gggrrr. Why Fender, why do you do this, just once will you please please please release a US standard, Japanese FSR or Mexican FSR, unlined Precision and Jazz bass. Please, just one with an unlined neck. Thank you.

I dont fully agree with that. If you were going to talk about the history of the motor car, you would do a piece on the Model T Ford. You may not go into the technical aspects of the car but you would do a section on it. I feel the Fender Precision was at the forefront of playing and shaping the role of bass in music and how people added bass in music transitioning from double bass to electric bass. You wouldn't go into the technical details of the bass like woods, pickups etc. but certainly its birth, its impact and importance.

Ok cool, I imagine around the £650 range.

Like the look of this. Any idea on output and price?

I would more than likely buy a 1970's Telecaster bass or a 1970's fretless Fender Precision.

I enjoyed it but it wasn't a patch on the drums episode. I felt it missed too many key things out, had no real direction and focused to much on bass as a frequency rather than an instrument and style. Herbie Flowers though, what a lovely guy and so humble.

Also around the same sort of time you had bands like Smashing Pumpkins and Rage Against The Machine who are worth a listen.

Congratulations. So what does that actually mean. What do they do for you and what do you have to do for them?

Yeah, I found the Ringo thing very interesting. Yep, totally agree about the snare thing as well, very pronounced. Oh, I loved the Motown bongo's lady, that part was brilliant.

Wish I could get that Precision sound out of mine, that is such a gorgeous tone when he plays finger style at the start.

Totally loved the Stewart Copeland episode and I wanted it to be twice as long. For me, it only scratched the surface. Loved the 30 second drum playing that went through the changes from marching up to The Beatles. That was brilliant. Did anyone see the natural Fender Telecaster bass that was in front of Stewart when he was making the first bass drum pedal in his house Huge gas now, it was gorgeous

He won't go far, he doesn't play a Precision 🤣🤣😂😂😂

And then in 6 months time you'll be saying that your amp doesn't cut through the mix and you want a cleaner tone and what pedal should you buy 🤣😂

I actually didn't mind the video, it was just one guys experience of his session life. The next person may well tell a totally difference story. What concerned me more was it looked like Scott was wearing grey tracksuit bottoms

Personally for me it would be, Miles Davis - A Kind of Blue John Coltrane - A Love Supreme Ray Brown - Soular Energy Ronnie Jordan - The Antidote Any Oscar Peterson album Any Count Basie album

Late to this party but that is an absolutely gorgeous sounding bass.

I think the only bass I have owned and really hated was a Status Shark. Bought it from the Bass Centre in Wapping and they very kindly took it back and I exchanged it for something else. I did also buy a brand new 2011 German Warwick Streamer LX and it was a lovely bass but at £1800, it was poorly made. The pickup fell out and the jack socket needed replacing all within a year. It was very light as well and felt like it was going to break at any moment. I think this also contributed to it sounding thin and gutless although it was a lovely tone, just very weak. I loved it but I was so disappointed, especially as it was £1800. In comparison, I borrowed an early 2000 Warwick Streamer and this was a totally different beast, big, fat, punchy and built like a tank.

Thank you for sharing.

My two gorgeous girls. The one on the left is my Fender FSR 70's Precision and the one on the right is my Fender Mike Dirnt Precision. Both are absolutely superb. I simply cant fault them.

The Precision sound is incredible, easily the best for me by a country mile, my dream bass tone. The Jazz sounded lovely as well. Surprisingly, I loved the Warwick tone but what interested me the most was the Gibson. It sounded gorgeous 😍😍

Oh now how much do I love the electricity thingy in the middle. I want one of them on my amp. I would stare and stare at it until I went blind 😍 😁
