    [quote name='Leftbass' post='626690' date='Oct 15 2009, 09:29 AM']Okay no takers! Whats the problem? Price? Make not popular? Down market? This amp does what it says on the tin. Good control over the sound not heavy and good looking. A real bargain.[/quote] Do you accept £250 posted?

    I've been to the Jamirotalk forum and all I got was this quote. [quote]no one knows the guy's name. if you check the stuartzender.net forums, kevin lindsay, who knows paul turner asked paul to inquire. the only thing derrick mckenzie and jay remember about mr.x is that he was a 'fat black guy', which is neither andrew levy nor randy hope-taylor.[/quote]

    [quote name='skywalker' post='606020' date='Sep 22 2009, 07:51 PM']Hi All Can anyone help please with the chords over the "Flute Solo" in this, the chart I got from Chordie is a complete work of fiction, and my ears are not that good. Much appreciated Cheers Steve[/quote] If I'm not mistaken they go: Cm ---- Bb ---- Ab ---- G7 (twice) Cm ---- Ab ---- Cm --- Ab F ----- G7 ---- Cm ---- Bb ----- Cm ------Bb

    To me Jaco was not a great soloist, his case was as other say "hit & miss" but when we talk about groove, well there is no one better. For some great Jaco's groove check these ones: [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jFM-ZX5Trro"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jFM-ZX5Trro[/url] [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sMQUFvv0WRY"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sMQUFvv0WRY[/url] This one is not bad and please remember that all that was in the 70's when no one was doing it.

    Am I the only one who can't stand them on record but just loves them live? I think they are amazing in a live setting.

    Nice tune mate and good sound overall, can't say I heard the bass a lot due to crappy pc speakers but I definitely like it.
  17. Mcgiver69
    You can buy it, I just got it from a mate that was about to flog it on the bay! Thanks NJE you're a top bloke.

    Risking to be pitchforked I have to say that I consider Birelli amazing in guitar but his bass playing is a pretty lame Jaco impersonation. He could have taken all those influences and made something else with them but he just settled to be a mere impersonator. That's pretty sad when you realise the huge talent that Birelli posseses. Sorry guys I saw that video long time ago and haven't changed my mind.

    [quote name='Matte_black' post='537338' date='Jul 10 2009, 05:13 PM']I think that the pots can be easily removed and replaced so the holes layout shouldn't be a problem. [/quote] The problem is that I have no much space in my bass cavity. Believe me I would love to have it as I love the tone but I have no space in my basses.

    [quote name='Matte_black' post='537329' date='Jul 10 2009, 05:01 PM']Still available! Sorry for the blurry pics... too much coffee in these days. [attachment=28626:SUC52402.JPG][/quote] I'm sorry but it won't fit any of my basses. It is a shame as I really love the tone of those preamps. BUMP for a great preamp at a cracking price!

    I think you forgot to mention the most famous user of these basses "Neil Stubenhauss" he is the reponsible of lots and lots of hits in the 80's and 90's. You can hear him in Michael Bolton (Well if you can stomach that!) multi platinum, multi whatever album "Soul Provider". I saw an interview with Neil some time ago and was impressed with his sound, he said that once he played that bass he felt like going into a spell and when he recorded with it never looked back!

    Great recording sound, great vocals and bass playing. Funnily enough I graciously dissagree with Mr. Funk and Mr. Urb, two authorities in the business of Funk, I think the way the drums are played gives the song an extra rubberband effect. That's how I feel it.
  24. Mcgiver69
    Great player with a wonderful tone, his basses were made by a guy from the Gibson custom workbench. They sound really nice.
  25. Mcgiver69
    I could be interested as I have an Encore bass which want to convert into fretless. Let me check my finances first.
