Ah nice, that sounds like the same sort of thing we plan to use it for, but I'll be chucking the tracks up to our Google drive. The idea of splitting one track out to individual instruments sounds like a bit too much faff for my use, but more accurately, well beyond my skill set! Do you know what Logic's built in mastering does? Is it just limit/enhance/compress?

Howdy folks, I've just got my grubby mitts on a Tascam DR40x to start recording rehearsals and was wondering if anyone then plays with their tracks to sort of 'master' them after recording? I have Reaper and, from a bit of reading around, it sounds like using a multiband compressor and limiter on the tracks will improve them, so I have some reading to do on that. We've previously just chucked a phone down in the room and the recordings have been good enough to share and listen to, so I'm assuming I won't have to do anything to the Tascam tracks for them to be listenable, but if anyone has any tips/tricks/a workflow to share then I'd love to hear what you do!

I'd imagine Mike Bordin will do most of the drumming and Bill will do the odd tune here and there.

7 pages in and no mention of Freddie King yet - sacrilege! This ones a little funkier than the record and has a nice little bass break by Benny Turner, one of my favourite blues bassists

The full line up looks insane. Take my money!

Check this one out as well... I think you'll like the version of 'Yonder Wall' at about the 12 minute mark, but the whole show is great!

Nice walk through of a lovely Duck Dunn bassline! Freddie had some great players with him. I really love Benny Turner's work with him (playing with your bro must be an advantage for feel and just knowing where the song is going!), especially on the live in Europe live stuff..

Quite a unique mod! https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/156658530392?mkevt=1&mkpid=0&emsid=e11021.m164380.l178264&mkcid=7&ch=osgood&euid=c94bfe4ab8ac49f89a94f44800489968&bu=43119291937&ut=RU&exe=0&ext=0&osub=-1~1&crd=20250128012836&segname=11021&recoId=156658530392&recoPos=1 "Headstock: Good aesthetic condition." Is it?! 🤔

I like the look of the Silver Sparkle Z3 too... https://www.andertons.co.uk/sire-z3-4string-bass-in-silver-sparkle/ Must. Resist.

Squier have produced a few different Jaguars over the years with a PJ setup. You could pick one of those up for us under £200 second hand.

You should also check out Limelight. They fit the bill for that played in feeling you're after and you can spec it to suit your taste, they pop up every now and again in the classifieds too.

I'll second the Quilter, that's exactly what I use mine for. I have a Tronographic Rusty Box as a pre for one band and Sansamp VT Bass DI for the other. Small, light, and headroom for days.

The Hama above will be a lovely bass, but will have a J neck so may be too skinny for you? I love Japanese Fenders, especially that reissue line, and reckon they're a perfect mix of price, quality and features that I like (EG. gloss necks and vintage frets). The PB70 mentioned will top bass too, although you don't see them pop up too often. This looks to be fairly similar and would be worth looking at..... If you like maple boards, then the PB57 is also worth checking out and comes in at 42mm at the nut. There's one in a BassBros. The body will be basswood (not Alder as specified on site), so should be fairly light.... https://bassbros.co.uk/product/2005-fender-japan-pb-57-precision-bass-reissue/

Wow, that's a great buy! Had a go on one in the Gibson garage the other day and was very impressed, it sounded huge and was a lot of fun to play. Happy NBD!

I had a go on one for about 10 mins in the Gibson garage the other day and really liked it. I'm no fretless aficionado and that 10mins playing probably doubled the amount of time I've spent playing a fretless, but it feels every bit as good a my fretted JC......but I sounded a lot worse 😂 If I were looking for a nice fretless then I'd definitely be looking at it. It seems to fill a nice gap when it comes to unlined fretless and that price point and you have the typical JC fell and quality.
