  1. Its 9.8lb on my bathroom scales
  2. I have a P bass. I don't hate it, I don't enjoy playing it either, and don't play it much any more but my mum bought it for me, so I will hang on to it. I have played a couple of awful P basses though. Haven't played a bad jazz yet.
  3. Yes, but that is exactly what it sounded like when they were playing it - that was the sound. Looks aside (Think it is one of the better looking basses), it plays nothing like the short scales, they are good basses to play (except upper fret access). Although getting back to bridges, the modern ones aren't good, the originals were ok. I had an EB5 (2013). Very light, very well balanced, sounded fantastic. Ugliest thing going though, and strings too wide for me.
  4. Basically anything with a lot of dynamics or quiet sections don't work in the car. A lot of classical stuff, some quieter prog stuff etc. Straight modern rock / pop works better in the car where it is compressed to 0dB like everything since the 90s. I generally listen to radio 6 in the car. Used to be radio 4 but that got too depressing. Sometimes going back to music again since Lauren Laverne took over the breakfast show!
  5. i gigged for ages on a TC250-12 and loved it so I would go for that, although if space is a problem they do smaller sized. If it is just for home use you could go for something like a PhilJones double four - more expensive again but you could get one second hand. Or as above, either a TC250-208 or a BAM200 and maybe a 10" cab. Personally I use a CTM100 and 2 TC1x12, but it is true to say that isn't so great at space!
  6. Oh yes, I forgot I put them together the other day for a family shot
  7. Must be some screws somewhere for it. Seems like they should go longer to reach the gaps there.
  8. For just over £100 you can afford a tin of green spray paint!
  9. He sounds like a lot of work. But it has to be said, Crazy horses goes down well!
  10. Mansons in Exeter have one for sale, saw it when I was down there last https://www.mansons.co.uk/product/pre-owned-1984-fender-performer-bass-burgundy-mist-11700
  11. With the speaker it isn't that cheap when you consider that the BG250 208 is £250 with a 2x8 built in
  12. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_is_dead Coincidence, no?
  13. Pedantic point - there were no platinum selling albums in the 60s. Or most of the 70s.
  14. Adults do that? Wow! I have never noticed that to be a fact. I expect people to be fairly flakey and make excuses. When they aren't, I am pleasantly surprised, but it isn't that often.
  15. This is very close to home.
  16. Interested in seeing that. I was a little tempted by the buttercream player jazz. Trying to get over my 65 jazz thoughts
  17. Howabout sideways references, such as musical cues, such as the Black Sabbaths 'Devil Woman/cliff richard' breakdown in Lady Evil etc. There is a Sixx AM song with a section that is straight off God gave rock and roll to you/Kiss* as well, but I can't remember which bit * Yes I know it was someone else than kiss originally I think this is to Kiss,
  18. Probably just the Ibanez SR2605. I can bring the CTM100 as that sounds nice. Oh and maybe a Roli Rise 49 if someone wants to see one.
  19. When did this sneak out? https://www.zoom-na.com/products/guitar-bass-effects/bass/zoom-b1-four-b1x-four-bass-multi-effects-processors This seems like an ideal thing for a small pedalboard, with 5 effects (not sure what the 4 is for) Has it been out a while and I just missed it? Seems perfect for a lot of occasions
  20. The standard is made in china and is quite a bit cheaper than the custom (but not currently available in 5 string)
  21. Should be easy enough as long as you get the main theme in. But its busy,. Those groups in the videos, it always seemed like they were the sort of groups that are more fun to be in than listen to!
