[quote name='happynoj' timestamp='1421523276' post='2662309'] I think that Jamareo is playing Warwicks now. He's certainly got a few of them. He has the 3 Streamers as seen in the Warwick Custom Shop video, but he has some other Custom Shop orders as well.

It does sound like Jamareo's playing though. And that tone.....oooo sir..... [/quote] Jamareo just tweeted me (get me!!) saying "me" to the question of who played on the recording..I wonder if it was a misunderstanding by the interviewer?

[quote name='M@23' timestamp='1421346918' post='2660252'] He has a few Warwick Custom Shop basses, I think. There was a pic on Instagram of a red fretless Corvette type thing too. [/quote] Streamers..two 4-strings & a 5 in this vid.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SELnJ3nMS5k

[quote name='stingrayPete1977' timestamp='1421312312' post='2659597'] Ah that's interesting to know, any idea what sort of five it was? [/quote] He's got himself a Warwick..as seen in this The Voice USA clip.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H2c5h2D9IQI ..pause on 0.30 for a good view of it

[quote name='Roland Rock' timestamp='1421178910' post='2658172'] Imagine if you worked in a lingerie department [/quote] I'm not allowed any more..

I've worked in clothing & outdoor pursuits retail & even the days when you couldn't care less you check the stock,clean the mirrors,rearrange stuff to catch the eye. Also trying stuff on getting a feel for the garment,generally increase your product knowledge... I imagine if I worked in a shop with instruments they wouldn't look like the ones mentioned! Where's the pride of the staff? A daily checklist would have on it things like tune & dust the instruments-rust on strings is out of order. The only music shops I have personal experience of have staff who are musicians working there probably not getting paid much but allowing a certain lifestyle to be maintained..the same is not true in other retail businesses where a young inexperienced person is hired to stand behind a till & sell add-ons. If the shop wants to sell it's stock IT has to make the effort to get us through the door...then provide the product & service. I'll only not buy from local shops if the item I want is absolutely unavailable from them. In the higher price you pay in a shop, you are paying for that service,relationship, being able to touch & try...& it feels great walking out with a new bit of gear!

[quote name='molan' timestamp='1421097192' post='2657173'] Import duties are only about 2% to USA and sales taxes are maybe 4-5% unless you buy online, in which cases you're exempt from sales tax. However you have to get the item there and insure it. On an item by item basis this is expensive. Shipping in bulk reduces prices but you're potentially in for warehousing and/or local distribution costs. [/quote] These products would be online sales..the specific conversation was about a customer in the U.S. asking about discount, he wasn't aware that he wouldn't be paying the sales tax & when informed said he felt like he was getting a discount.

[quote name='molan' timestamp='1421063715' post='2656642'] I think there's a bit more to it than that Ian - there's loads of similar examples. A simple one is a John East pre-amp. Currently £195 direct from the manufacturer in the UK. Last time I checked it was readily available in the US for around £165. Obviously it wouldn't be worth re-importing one because the duties would take it up above the UK price but, if you live in the States you can buy a UK product for £30 less than it costs in the UK. Could just be differences in sales taxes but that would ignore any shipping costs and U.S. importation duties. [/quote] I work for a small UK company that makes parts for guitars/basses & while I'm not involved in the sales side our sales manager has said that a U.S buyer wouldn't have to pay sales tax & so would pay less than a U.K. buyer...& yet the product is made here

[quote name='Funky Dunky' timestamp='1420896126' post='2654698'] It's alright. Really lacks volume, even with decent phones. Very fiddly and fragile but for the price, a good wee toy. How do you adjust the tempo on the rhythms? [/quote] While holding down the 'Rhythm' button use the vol/tempo dial to change the tempo..I don't have an issue with volume & sometimes use iphone buds.. I really like this gadget, good for grabbing a bass & playing without needing to go into a freezing garage,won't wake the kids & in the summer sit outside & enjoy the sun/view/alcohol

[quote name='Funky Dunky' timestamp='1420893838' post='2654658'] Can't comment on the effect used, but it was indeed Jeff Bhasker playing bass on the record, Mark Ronson himself confirmed this in a recent interview. Pretty damn good player, and the tone is awesome as well IMO. (Bruno Mars played the drums on this track). Anyone heard Feel Right from the Ronson album? Musically reminiscent of early James Brown, and Mystikal's performance is quite entertaining. [/quote] Jamareo Artis gets the bass credit according to the wiki page, Bhasker gets a production & writing credit. Also on the finale of The Voice(USA) Artis is playing a Warwick seen in this this clip.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SELnJ3nMS5k

I bought Jose's modded OLP mm2 stingray & he was great throughout the process, the bass arrived packaged very well & on time. Jose included some extra pick guards & also his bands CD..a recording so good it feels like I bought a CD & got bass for free!!

Hi, I'm Gav, I have not played in years & after switching jobs have found the fire has been reignited! Feeling rusty,stiff & slow but happy to get the fingers moving again!
