Yeah I know. BUT it's a great dance track and I'm surprised it took them so long to do one. In some ways I think they missed their calling in the noughties, more tracks like this this could have kept them relevant. However, admittedly, it's not exactly had the music press raving.

I wish Symantec was easier to uninstall than it is. In some cases, you need to download a special tool from an independent supplier to free the PC from the clutches of it's code. A bit like a virus. Kaspersky is leagues better.

Danelectro FAB Tone. It's a guitar pedal but it has one of the rawest, hottest, tightest distortions for bass I've ever heard. No muddiness at all.

Mostly wood plus bridge single coil pickup. The bass is almost entirely made from mahogany and I believe the fingerboard is some kind of composite or resin unless that's one of the originals, in which case it'll be rosewood. The single coil pickup adds some focus.

I deleted my post as I hadn't read earlier comments. Sorry.

We still do, mainly because they were fantastic value

Thanks guys, I have a couple of fEARless F112 cabs that do the trick and am pretty happy with them so far although they're not as light as the Barefaced equivalents.

I've not owned one but I've played through a couple. The light weight is a revelation. I'm not convinced on the cabs being transparent tonally, I can hear differences in the high end but Alex definitely maximises efficiency and the tonal differences between BF cabs and alternatives are not going to add up to much in the on stage mix. I don't own one because Alex has never been keen on tilt back cabs. I like tilt back because it helps to avoid most of my monitoring blasting past my knees.

I'm thinking something similar. By the time everything's set up and trouble shot, I've lost the inspiration. Tascam digital workstations are interesting me atm too but a drum box that can play slightly ahead and behind the best would be great.

How about this?

Prince was phenomenally versatile. I am a huge fan of his improvised live jams. His guitar didn't really inspire me though. Alan Murphy on the other hand...

Unfortunately, there's no setting for the number of TLRT's in the forum software. There's nothing I can do at the moment to change it, I'm sorry.

I remember playing one of those back in the 80's in a local music shop. I'd never seen one before and, not being a fan of Westone at all as an owner, I was very impressed with how it sounded and played. It made me question even more the POS Westone I had at the time.

Well we're all going to hold our own opinions but when that boy was in the pocket live, he was letting it all hang out. In the studio he seems a little more reserved. Speaking of balancing restraint vs expression. This guy is chill but his fingers are doing the talking.

Still his finest moment, all that theory training is being put to work.

I haven't checked previous posts for a mention but Reverb are offering free samples and loops to download. https://reverb.com/c/software

Let's not forget the magnificent stylings of Tommy Seebach. A man whose desperation for musical immortality via the Eurovision Song Contest was only just eclipsed by his desperate and premature demise at the age of 53.

I approached Alex about tilt back cabs back when he was starting out and he didn't see them as something he wanted to do. So fEARless were the best option available. A Mesa Bass 400+ was the best valve head I've ever owned. But it doesn't do overdrive. That's a more modern thing.

I think I met him at a Bass Bash once, long ago.

Yeah Sharay is an absolute gospel improv monster thanks to his theory training. But he plays a lot of bland, easy listening, worship stuff and it kind of squashes his buzz a bit.

All cabs have some form of colouring. There was a comparison of 1x12 cabs at the SE Bass Bash in 2015 and the BB2 showed some colouring in the higher frequencies, to my ears, perhaps not due to the design as much as the tweeter. But there were others that were more coloured and remained surprisingly popular amongst attendees. Some colouring can also help with monitoring in a crowded on stage mix. My fEARless F112 cabs are more like PA cabs but they're not as light as a BB2. Maybe they're a little too sweet for live use. I run them each with a GB shuttle 6

It is! I also spotted it last week while reviewing the video. Very unusual to see one played live!!

Phenomenal playing from both, metronome precision yet they groove brutally. No wonder Quincy used LJ in the studio so often.

I think you could do better...
