  1. Hi all Looking for opinions on which after-marker Stingray pick-up and 2-band pre-amp combination gets closest to the classic pre-Ernie Ball Stingray sound. I've seen that Nordstand and Seymour Duncan both have after-market pickups modelled on early the early Stingray pickup. And John East and Retrovibe both produce circuits based on the original early circuit. Are there any other options? Looking for that Bernard Edwards sound! (without his talent, obviously) Has the dream-combination been discovered?! Are they pretty similar? All views gratefully received! Thanks JJT
  2. And this chap has done a fantastic job of transcribing 12 of the best ABBA bass lines: https://www.bassbooks.com/shopping/products/1552-abba-bass-transcriptions-ebookpdf/?bc=no
  3. I’d get it mended as they seem to command a good price 2nd hand (£180-200) now that they’re no longer made. I can’t see myself ever selling mine, it’s a superb piece of kit.
  4. I don't care.
  5. I put the SD Quarter Pounder PJ set into mine. Seriously punchy, aggressive and full sound. Would never go back to the originals
  6. Best of all worlds: pre-Chic 'Big Apple Band' playing a Bee Gees cover. Very funky, superb guitar work: http://youtu.be/YJhyd4fJtas
  7. On hold, sale pending...
  8. Pickups and preamp from a 1995 Ibanez SR885. PJ set from a Fender Jazz Aerodyne. Let me know if you're interested. Julian
  9. [quote name='PaulGibsonBass' timestamp='1492116443' post='3278153'] In my opinion, the greatest pop song ever written. Solid gold pop perfection, I reckon. http://youtu.be/xFrGuyw1V8s [/quote] Yes, agreed. The greatest pop record of all time. As Nile Rodgers has put it, the song is full of hooks and everything is in its right place.

  12. Pretty sure Flea has flats on his Jazz when recording?
  13. I like that. Fantastic hat too!
  14. As said above, One Hot Minute- RHCP
  15. Not sure if it's critically acclaimed, but Oasis's (What's the Story) Morning Glory is in my book, to paraphrase Harold Steptoe, 'morally, spiritually and physically a festering fly-blown heap of accumulated [musical] filth.'
  16. Looking forward to it - I really love the last album!
  17. Good suggestions - will try/call/email as appropriate!
  18. Cheers for the tip, I will have a look tonight but I doubt that this is the cause. It does sound like something 'electronic' is awry. It really does sound like I playing a guitar through a distortion/overdrive pedal (albeit a very quiet one).
  19. Anyone got any suggestions as to what could be causing distortion from my Phil Jones Double Four? It is there virtually every time I switch it on but the disappears after 20 seconds to a 2 minutes. The sound of my bass is either very very quiet and distorted, or as though I am playing through an overdrive or distortion pedal. Then it suddenly pops into full working order. Any ideas or suggestion gratefully received. Julian
  20. Who are the 'premier makers' and what determines membership of that 'club'? I am genuinely interested to know, not just stirring.
