  1. 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.
  2. Get Up Jake — The Band
  3. Bury a Friend — Billie Eilish
  4. Agent Double O Soul — Edwin Starr
  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. Breaking Glass — Bowie
  10. This is exactly the same as mine. Best sounding amp I've either owned or played through.
  11. Comfortably Numb — Pink Floyd
  12. Underpants — John Foxx
  13. Hole in my Shoe — Traffic
  14. Cross Yourself — Emmylou Harris
  15. Want a Danish — Van Morrison
  16. Politicians In My Eyes — Death
  17. Three button hand me down — The Faces
  18. Dancing Fool — Frank Zappa
  19. Jupiter Hollow — The Band
  20. I've recently upgraded from a pedaltrain with a caline power thing to a Harley benton spaceship power 50C board which has all the psu gubbins incorporated into it and is an absolute marvel. In addition to umpteen outputs for powering pedals, there's also a USB socket on the back for charging/powering phones/tablets.
  21. I have one of these — it was my first mustang. They are fantastic sounding basses, and I can confirm the neck feels a lot more like a jazz than my JMJ or vintera mustangs.
  22. I often discuss music with the missus — especially in the car when she asks me to change whatever album I've put on.
  23. Fiddle About - The Who
  24. Do we get to choose which cookies we are sent? If so I prefer the ones with chunky chocolate chips.
  25. Cheeky bu99er's listed it again https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/325825655879?hash=item4bdcb8f447:g:6dYAAOSw9O9lCf3N
