I reckon a bass player did the mix on that live footage. Not everyone's cup of tea but it's filthy 😂

Yep agreed, love them. Not difficult to play but really cleverly done and very original. Sometimes they don't work on their own but when you stick them in the band format everything comes together. And that tone....

That's The Iconic Wheatsheaf in Dunstable. We played it once about 5 years ago. Little old chap called Maurice runs it and insists on trying to get on a mic with his harmonica regardless of what sort of music you play I seem to remember. Lovely guy but seemed a touch crazy to us. We went down well and they wanted us back but we took a band decision not to return (partly due to having to climb over a load of tracksuited baby toting chavs to get the gear in and we struggled to fit in the space allocated for the band)

Maybe you have the second version. Mine is the original one

Mine was fine straight out if the box. I haven't had to plug it in to a computer at all???

There's a Mesa MPulse 600 in the classifieds on here for a steal of a price. I would bite his arm off.....(It's not mine BTW)

I'm sure you're on her bucket list. Don't Give Up 😁

At least you still have a chance of snagging a ZZB if you keep your eyes open...

I would think you need to tell the police to reopen it, tell them where the bass is and get on it pronto before it 'disappears'

It's not Marcus Millers, it's Mark Millers according to the advert. Don't be fooled.....😉

There are a few threads on Talkbass. I was looking at one of these a while back as I'm a fan of old school rock amps but there seems to be a lot of reliability issues with them (unless of course it's the same 4 people having tube issues posting all over the web). In the end I arrived at a Mesa Big Block 750 and love it to bits but they don't show up very often. Recently I swapped another amp for an Orange 4 Stroke and am enjoying that as much as my Mesa. It sounds huge and has a great eq. Might be worth having a look around for one of those?

That is truly shocking 🤮

And i always wanted one of these back in the day. It's an Aria ZZB which they also did in a blue sunburst or 50/50 black white graphic. I wasn't brave enough though and ended up with a safe looking Aria RSB Deluxe 2 instead...

Gotta go the full hog crackle finish with pointy basses from the 80's. I wonder where they've all gone now?

There were loads of undiscovered gems that used to come into the shop back then that just got totally overlooked by the general public. This was a perfect example. I remember selling a few copies to the regulars that came in and were always up for listening to something different but the public never cottoned on to them. Here's another example - a band called Device which was Holly Knights side project (she wrote a load of big songs for Tina Turner, Bryan Adams, Pat Benatar and suchlike in the 80's). Proper 80's production on here.

I was a manager for Our Price Records when this album came out in 1988. The title track Homelands played flat out through the shop Quad hifi before we opened up was always an enjoyable experience. The production on the album is excellent. It brings back a flavour of the music I was enjoying back then. Elements of Frankie, Roachford, Missing Persons, Strangeways, TheFixx, Go West and FM are all floating around in there. Aaah, the days of bad haircuts, electronic kits, snares with loads of reverb and big chorussy guitars - where did they go......

Zombie thread revival post Found this.....what a great version...

Nutshell 🙂

One of these Nux Mighty Plugs..... Rechargeable tiny bluetooth headphone amp for silent practice - just plug it into your jack socket, connect your phone (Spotify/YouTube) via bluetooth, stick your headphones in and you're good to go. Amp Sims and effects included. It's a fab bit of kit for £58 and he can practice anywhere. https://www.gak.co.uk/en/nux-mighty-plug-headphone-amplifier-with-bluetooth-/954524

They also have a few planks of floorboard from where the first Beatles gig was. A snip at just £99,999...

This was the 2nd gig of 2023 for us and it was a cracker. Pretty much a full house at one of the best venues on our circuit and the atmosphere was a bit special. I fell off the gear abstinence wagon already and used my new to me Orange 4 Stroke amp - I'm really pleased with it so far. It weighs half as much as my normal Mesa BB750 and sounds really similar. It's a lovely meaty big rock amp.
