Currently broadcasting a Live Chat and discussing Chris, his bass playing and the world of bass generally. Feel free to come and join in!

Yep, the black one. He still had that when we did the London Bass Show interview in 2018. Building an idea for a new video...

That was his bass of choice for quite a while.

It was a Mexican.... One of my favourite live albums... an outstanding bass performance too! https://youtube.com/shorts/UWCFP3DMP-o?si=x6ZRBmq0_7SFK9ss

Cheers Mark, I hope you enjoy it!

Hey Steve! Yes, your cabs will be along shortly... Thanks for checking in to the channel, much appreciated!

That was probably Terraplane back then. Thunder are quite a different proposition! Enjoy the listening and thanks for the kind words. Cheers!

Blimey! Thank you, Sean, glad the content is working for you. I'll keep at it! Mike

Thank you sir, appreciate it! Nice one!

They were excellent pickups, looking forward to having some basses for reviews and demos very soon. I can also recommend the Aguilar 4P-60 which I have installed in a Fender Mex Standard P which I use on Queen tribute shows, voiced quite differently to the Monty's pickups but just a different flavour - different pickups work well in different basses, there is no 'one size fits all' solution with pickups.

Glad to be of service!

I don't need that sort of negativity in my life........

Someone just sent me this link via my YouTube channel of this Herb Alpert performance from 1996 with John Pena playing a 5-String T-Bass..... not too shabby!

Sadly at the mercy of the phone reception at the time...it was a Live Chat broadcast, not a long form video for editing.

Here you go, sir.... https://youtube.com/live/ecqUO5LDXTQ?feature=share
