police squad

I actually discovered the pre shape only recently, I've resisted because I didn't like the trace pre shape. But i pressed it at the last gig and the result was fab. Sadly I have no gigs booked in which I play bass at the moment. Maybe one day........................

yep I have the rm500 evo II, love it.

I had the Sting signature bass. It was a lovely instrument. No one ever commented on it being the Sting bass. Most people dont care. I also had the Steve Harris WHUFC bass. I'm a hammers fan and I was a big Maiden fan when I was younger. I used the WHUFC bass on 3 gigs. It was too heavy for my poor old shoulders/neck and back. It sounded wonderful and had a fantastic neck on it, again no one seemed to care. I then read, on here, that I might get grief from some pi55ed up football fans, which I hadn't thought of and it made me not really want to gig it. I sold it, I wish I had kept the neck and made a parts bass, maybe a PJ of some description.

I don't do spotify. Not for any reason, perhaps I'll have a look

they have great pickups, even now as Precision player thru n thru, I do love the single coil fizz of the front pickup

another great video and another album to buy

yep I totally agree. I would buy the Toy Matinee album but can't find it at a reasonable price. AND he has made me want to practice and improve, something I haven't done for many years

I bought this Flea bass when they first came out. I ordered it 4 years ago tomorrow. I gigged it probably 70 odd times, the finish started to wear where I rest my forearm. It now sits in the office and I occasionally pick it up, have a noodle and put it back. Sell it, I thought.........................nah, can't be bothered I've just sen someone looking for one in items wanted, couldn't be easier I got it out and had a noodle....................nah, not for sale, what a superb bass picture just because!!

Jessie's Girl Rick Springfield Stand and Deliver....Adam and the Ants Poison Arrow......ABC You spin me round.....Dead or Alive (this goes down a storm) Just can't get enough....Depeche Mode Down Under.......Men at Work A little respect....Erasure Electric Dreams...Georgio Moroder Kids in America.....Kim Wilde Relax and Two tribes....Frankie Everybody wants to rule the world..Tears for Fears These are all great songs

I had one fitted to a manson explorer. Never used it. It was already fitted to the bass when I bought it. In hindsight, I should have removed it and sold it!!

yep I totally agree. I would buy the Toy Matinee album but can't find it at a reasonable price. AND he has made me want to practice and improve, something I haven't done for many years

I'll have to get the first album and give it a listen. I like the space on this one and the drumming

What did you think of the album, I'm really enjoying it

yep I'm with you on that

Look at his FB page, sadly I sold my XL-2 recently, which has since changed hands again.

Actually I think you SAW bashers are partly wrong here. We play, Never gonna give you up by Rick Astley, it goes down a storm. Rick is a great singer and some of the songs SAW wrote were good songs. Granted about Kylie, I don't like her voice but she can do it live as can Jason Donnovan. SAW production made it all sound too similar which I think was the real problem.

wow that's fab too

Yes that's the one. Mark at classic and cool said it was lovely and in Denmark. Beautiful bass. Is it a one off?

Does anyone on here have this bass Custom shop bass I don't know if there is only one. It was originally in GAK , then I've just it here (but sold) I was wondering what it's like. Herbie and this bass was one of my biggest influences when I started playing

I don't understand what you mean. Songs you have or haven't covered 'scuse my thickness here
