MacDaddy

Pink 🩷

Mark King at Fairfield Hall last night. Mark bass all the way. Little Mark Vintage 1000 head, Standard 104HR cabs, and a small unobtrusive pedal board 😜

It's one finger per 'fret' on the Ibanez, on the Stagg there's currently a lot of moving the whole hand.

I've recently bought a Stagg EUB (courtesy of @Burns-bass). Regular readers may know I already have an Ibanez UEB, and this I took to quite quickly, no doubt helped by the 34" scale. The Stagg with it's 3/4 DB scale and no stand, is a different proposition altogether. I took it to rehearsal last night and tbh it's was a struggle. I tried it first with the fake body bits, then took them off for a while, then put just the one I lean on, and this was a bit better. But I'm still not sure how high to have the pin. With the Ibanez I have the nut at roughly forehead height. Should it be the same for the Stagg? I was often thrown by the bigger scale. Any tips appreciated. (Pic from @Burns-bass sale listing)

I've recently bought a Stagg EUB, which has recently fallen over. One of the tuners is now a tad askew, but it could also do with a tweak to make it easier to play.

We always get a bit cheer when we do it. Maybe it's just that no-one cares about you? 😜

Will there be someone doing setups?

I have neither the inclination or the space to play a DB but I do have 2 EUBs which I'm loving playing. If you are anywhere near one of the Bassbash's keep an eye on the gear lists and pop along try some gear out and see what you get on with 🙂

Retail therapy?

Hank Wangford?

Yup. To avoid identity theft. But also Macdaddy sounds more showbiz than my real name which is Brett Starshine.
