40 minutes ( meant to be an hour) at the Sun Inn Frome, this afternoon. We went out as a Trio, normally 6 piece so I suggested we call ourselves 50 cent....Appreciative audience and it was nice to break the material back down to acoustic guitar, bass and harmonica and 2 vox. House Soundman has finally found his mojo so he had a DI box and put me through into the PA. We'd have done 45 minutes but I was waiting for the previous band's Bassist to undo his vintage fender hard case, (held together with a bungee cord) insert his 70's Jazz, reverse the proceedure and generally faff around before moving out of the way. The rest of our band were ready but I then had to set up my amp for the DI and tune. Don't think he even realised that in a quick change you move your stuff off the stage area ASAP and pack your precious Bass off the bleedin stage and don't impede others....

Keep up!

Khruangbin are worth a watch for the Basssist alone. Seen them on YT before but there's nothing like them out there.

'cos their his kids( and grand kid) doing them?

It's the time of the season

£25 a ticket

Yes, very last minute. Not sure if he was on the Bill already or someone has dropped out and he needs a run through before the big gig?

He's pulled up in a chaffeur driven 7 series BMW and the band are in a black Merc People carrier....

Most of Frome was in the queue yesterday once word got out..... but it's not a large venue, only 400 tickets were released

That's what he did on the first ( maybe pre) Wings Tour, he played at Leeds Uni.

Who?

86 views and not one comment about one of the world's most influential bassists?

My 72 Telecaster Bass is string through too.

Apparently a warm-up gig for Glastonbury, tickets sold out to those queing in 3 hours. He's called Paul....

Well I woke up this morning I got those music store blues Well I woke up this morning I got those music store blues Peach were not happy to see me They're the last store I'd now choose!

This weeks show: The Future feat:Top American Modal

It's my mantra, Root -5th, ghost note, Root 5th: repeat until audience and or Bassist fall asleep!

There's a MB CMD121P in the ads here with a knackered amp, it may be cheap?. Maybe the LM Blackline would fit and you'd have a decent combo? I swapped the MB Ninja 250 head into a CMD 121P and it worked fine....( as I put the LMIII into the Ninja cab). Just seen you are in Germany so that probably rules things out (due to costs and duties)

.....and if there are any Stetsons in the audience throw in a couple of 5th's too! Works for me all the time.

I emailed the seller and suggested he withdraw the listing but by that time he was eyeing the prize money I guess? Seller seems to sell a lot of spring steel strip too.

Should have read the OP properly, don't think (as said above) there is enough wood to do anything but a Tele...

Someone who knows nothing about Basses?.....

George Harrison was in the Beatles...?

Wonder who strung it up, never seen string windings south of the nut before.....
