No, but he is capable of more than he does on most “standard” u2 records The three sunrises, for example

Clue is in the word …. Don’t overthink it

You bastard ! You ate Harold! Now I know why the music stopped … 🥺

Luxury! We had to make do with a wooden platter, a mouse on a treadmill for power and a sharpened pig bone for a stylus… and we had to pay to feed the mouse …

I get that - why not get GarageBand or online version to make you a bass-less track for exactly the chords that you want to use?

@Firewood-player you should probably start your own introduction so you can get the exact help that you need there Starter for ten points…

In time-honoured tradition … 🎉 I wouldn’t say rickenbacker are awful and fenders are overpriced because that would derail the thread and get it locked sooner @Robbo it was a good question

Facebook and gumtree. I got at 15” bass cab on gumtree for £10

Ampeg ba108 is superb

I’ll give you a piece of advice from my own store of not-that-naturally-gifted. Put your bass to one side and find a funky drum beat on the net. Make up your own bass line in your head - if you sit there with a bass you might find something by luck and you might not. if you dream the baseline in your head, you’ll know where the notes fit in the pattern when you pick up the bass. Try and find any one of them and play it in the right place, then add more one or two at a time. some people can just riff this kind of thing off instantly. Sadly I’m not one of them and I find this way easier

You see @Mrbigstuff we can do this - thats #2… so what kind of tonewood would work best for that turnaround? I’d recommend ash, probably from the 60s and Leo must have breathed in its general vicinity at least twice (#3) and that kind of turnaround might work in metal if you left out thirds (#4) and I’m sure a MIM made out of that kind of wood would punch its weight well with a US model for less £ (#5) HOUSE

It’s either a prototype or it’s a custom. I’m confused.. if it’s custom, it should be exactly what you asked for, but great quality. if it’s a prototype it’s not custom and whilst it may not be exactly what you wanted but it doesn’t take much effort to tart up those faults.

You’re in the right place

I had the op and it was a game-changer
