  1. Give Me Back My Wig — Hound Dog Taylor and The House Rockers
  2. Almost Cut My Hair — Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young
  3. Scream Thy Last Scream, Old Woman With A Casket — Pink Floyd
  4. My JMJs (2 blue & 1 black) don't have the weird pattern on the upper horn like on the pic, so no need to worry about that. The classic vibe mustang is a great bass — now I have set up my competition orange one properly, it's a lot closer to my vintera than I expected it would be, and you don't have to take the neck off to tweak the truss rod.
  5. The G string looks like its almost hanging off the edge of the fingerboard. No wonder there are no pictures of him playing it. I bet he couldn't get rid of it quick enough.
  6. Bruce Foxton got rid of it though — so if its not good enough for him, its certainly not good enough for me.
  7. the Cobalt flats on the thunderbirds are surprisingly bright for flats, but my JMJ Mustangs are my main gigging basses currently. The band plays mostly 60s covers such as the who, small faces, kinks etc. I tend to dial in some grit to give the tone a bit of an added edge.
  8. I have various favourite sets for different basses, arrived at after trying quite a few different sets. Mustangs — D'addario ECB81M Chromes Precisions — Thomastik Infeld JF344 Flatwounds Hohner B2A — A 20+ year old set of double ball end Picato flats which will probably last longer than me. Epiphone Vintage Pro Thunderbirds — Ernie Ball PO2815 Cobalt Flatwounds Squier Bass IV — LaBella Deep Talkin' Bass VI Flatwounds Danelectro Longhorn — LaBella Danelecto Deep Talkin' Flatwounds Kala U-Bass — Galli Flatwounds (Chrome steel wrapped around a nylon core) Guild Starfire II — Status hotwire medium scale flatwounds (no longer available but I have a spare set)
  9. This is exactly the same as mine. Best sounding amp I've either owned or played through.
