Yep the bassline on Block Rockin' Beats is a total lift from 23 Skidoo's Coup http://www.djdmac.com/blog/song-day-23-skidoo-coup/

Good job they specified " For parts or not working" or my $1k including taxes would have been sorely disappointed
-
perfect for Blue Notes

Nick bought a bunch of short scale strings from me and all was excellent. Cheers!

I quit FaceBook a year or so back as it was just getting me down. However, at that time Nige was in my circle. Thoroughly lovely, principled guy

Thanks chaps, reassuring that you both have same recommendation too. Much appreciated! Cheers Clarky

Hi all I am setting up a mini pedal board with 4 pedals for upcoming blues/rock gigs: Broughton SV Preamp TC Spectracomp compressor TC Mojomojo overdrive Korg Pitchblack tuner Which order would you recommend these in the signal chain? Especially thinking of compressor (first?) and the overdrive (I want to set the SVP as core tone and use Mojomojo if I need to drive harder during songs). Thanks and sorry for numptiness

Paid for in 2021 so I guess thats my 'out' This gives me an idea for a Gear T@rt thread based on the number of pages of Feedback. Sadly I suspect I will "win" (cough) with @Old Horse Murphy fast closing (on 12 pages) and @AndyTravis a surprisingly limp 8! Edit: obbm and Kiogon trounce me totally (16 and 23 pages respectively) due to the high volume of sales of their most excellent cables and wiring looms, respectively

I am glad my reputation has calmed down (despite the damning evidence of 13 pages of feedback) so that I am not in consideration. Besides, I collected a new (old) bass on New Year's Day 🤣

banned years ago (under BC name antiloco)

Boz Burrell, Bad Company. Rick Danko, The Band. David J, Bauhaus. To name the first 3 that came into my head Edit: oops, missed lowdown's reply

I joined Finn Bass around 6 or 7 years ago but found it too slow moving (as in posts were infrequent and - often as not - by the same relatively small group of posters) to grab me and quickly drifted away again. In other news, its been reborn as a Spurs-supporting tennis player

Most protective gig bag. (Any January offers?)
Clarky replied to roonjuice's topic in Accessories and Misc
I was happy to pay a bit more for a Reunion Blues Aero bag. Top quality and no risk of zip nicks! Plus, with the red velvet lining, it looks like Dracula's coffin ... which is nice. I can't see them on sale anywhere but Thomann would be a tenner cheaper than Andertons if you are prepared a to wait a couple of weeks https://www.andertons.co.uk/reunion-blues-aero-series-bass-guitar-case-aero-b2?utm_source=google&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=surfaces -
The vast majority of names mentioned in this thread were not banned (waynepunkdude and bass ferret certainly were). Most have, I guess, chosen to leave or take a break because life and priorities move on. A number of the named members did indeed leave in the (as was charmingly described) "mass dummy spitting event" in 2015. I was one of them and I will not rake over old coals. I rejoined after 4 years and enjoy spending my time on here.

What was the first music you heard in 2022?
Clarky replied to NancyJohnson's topic in General Discussion
This stunning piece of classical music which was mentioned in an article in today's Times magazine. Came out in 2004 and was later apparently used in soundtrack of Shutter Island. Very beautiful indeed -
Bought a lovely bass from Andrew. All as described .... plus he drove the not-inconsiderable distance from the Kent coast to London to ensure it was safely delivered. Top marks!

Jaw droppingly good albums for bass players to hear
Clarky replied to Bilbo's topic in General Discussion
I suspect many bassists of my generation learned from Lemmy's propulsive playing on Hawkwind's 'Space Ritual' -
Lightweight Electric Upright with DB feel at £1k-2k?
Clarky replied to JJB's topic in EUB and Double Bass
