I just want to say a huge thanks to Bluejay for representin' BC this year and to Barrie for inviting us sit in with Bassgear. Not only did Bluejay donate her time but she also organised the banners. I think next year we're going to have to look seriously at being bona fide exhibitors. I would have been there but flights and resignation and contracts and tax things and logistics worked conspired against me by a week. Still...there's always the SE Bass Bash

Lovely post and some great points.

Get IN!

It had a tortie pickguard tho which looked fussy but it seemed all original as far as an ignorant person of my limited capacity to appreciate could tell.

I have a soft spot for Lakkies, would love to try one out in 30 years time after its taken a bit of road wear.

Looks cute! Would be a good recording set up but, like the Warwick Hellborg stuff, I wouldn't be convinced that all the high end refinement would be discernable against a deafening wall of distorted guitars.

Design by committee usually only ever makes progress on the basis of consensus. On Basschat that means you could be here for years.

Rolls used to do one that was quite popular before so many effects units had their own MIDI foot controller.

He'd never get a deal these days, the music is far too intelligent. It's a sad endictment of how the music industry is more about industry than music.

Its Tony Goggle!

In principle - yes and I would argue strongly that they should share the magic that they had as a band (despite John Bonham's death). But as much as I loved seeing them on the live DVD I know they were disappointed with their own playing. So pragmatically...it may be that what they had has gone already.

Here's a clip of me muddling through it at a sound check at the top of the Gherkin in London, through an awesome Akai Deep Impact. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XGgHyhgZfy8[/media]

Victor Wooten has done a cover of this one.

Sounds surreal Michael

Noice...tight playing and your bass sounds the beans.

Lee doesn't play upright...what on earth are they doing?!

La Bella make many of their strings in batches. I had to wait 4 months for a 6 string set with the exposed core. So there may be times when a certain kind of string isn't available anywhere because everyone's run out but La Bella haven't received enough orders yet to make another batch.

[quote name='MiltyG565' timestamp='1360961137' post='1979237'] If they were out of polarity, would it not just be a case of reversing the wiring on the series switch the reverse the polarity on each Jazz pickup? I get what you're saying, i can test it and all before i start, but the only way i'm really going to see if it will work is if i try, is it not? [/quote] You'll get phase cancellation effects in certain settings. What kinds of effects will depend on the polarity of the humbucker coils.
